The latest major Android firmware update, Android 10, brought with it a variety of changes, as well as some compatibility issues with many mobile games. However, it seems like it also had some positive changes in store for gamers: the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller is now officially supported by Android 10. While it was previously possible to use the Pro Controller with Android devices, correct button mappings have now been added to Android 10. The controller can be connected to supported Android devices via Bluetooth. If you play any traditional games on your phone or tablet that require more traditional controls rather than touch-based ones, this might be worth looking into.

Elden Pixels started a Kickstarter campaign for Alwa’s Legacy today. This is the proposed sequel to Alwa’s Awakening, and like the first game Alwa’s Legacy is a 2D Metroidvania with lots of RPG elements. This time, they went with a more modern look however as opposed to the 8-bit graphics of the first game. The targeted release date is Spring 2020. The campaign goal is set at SEK 250,000 (about €23,453), which has to be reached by December 5. You can find the Kickstarter here; below is the announcement trailer:

System: Switch
Release date: October 29, 2019
Developer: Gust
Publisher: Koei Tecmo

With yearly releases, certain franchises can sometimes grow complaisant and acquiescent when there’s a formula that works and becomes a signature, almost symbolic, to an IP’s legacy and name. In the case of Atelier, you know what you’re getting into with its slice-of-life approach to story, turn-based gameplay, fantasy world, and magical recipes. It’s what made Atelier what it is today with likeable protagonists, wholesome stories, and the chance to feel young and free. Each entry usually has a bunch of small tweaks that make up a larger whole that cause the games to feel distinct from each other despite the core approach effectively being the same, but when Atelier Ryza was shown earlier this year, you could tell right away that this was a big leap not only from Lulua, but from Atelier’s general direction as a whole. It still looks like Atelier, and it still feels like Atelier, though time and effort has clearly been made here for a new chapter and life that brings with it a fresh coat of paint, a new battle system, more intuitive interfaces, and just an overhaul of gameplay features and quality-of-life tweaks. All of these elements make Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout not only the best looking Atelier to date, but one of the most refined and refreshing entries in its history of over two decades.
