System: Switch (eShop)
Release date: April 25, 2019
Developer: Image & Form
Publisher: Thunderful
The SteamWorld franchise has to be one of the most ambitious and varied IPs in indie gaming today. Since its inception on DSiWare in 2010, the series has stretched from Metroidvania platformers to tower defense games to real-time strategy, and with SteamWorld Quest, the latest entry on Switch, they’ve made the natural progression to the card-based RPG genre. But of course, we have to wonder: does Image & Form have another ace up its sleeve with SteamWorld Quest? Let’s shuffle our deck and see what hand the game has dealt us.

Bandai Namco and Double Fine have issued a new set of screenshots from the action rouge-like title Rad. Below you can get a look at the town hub where players start their journey and return to between runs out to the Wastelands as well as the second biome.
The town area features unique characters with quirky personalities including The Elder, the oldest and mysterious dude living on the edge of town; Bob, who operates his custom-built town gate; and Billy, the town farmer if he only had something to plant. Meanwhile, the further players venture into the Wastelands, the more dangerous and corrupted the environments and enemies become.
