[Review] Oxenfree II: Lost Signals
Posted on 1 year ago by Nicholas Serpa in Reviews, Switch eShop | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: July 12, 2023
Developer: Night School Studio
Publisher: Netflix
When Oxenfree released in 2016, I was enamored with it. I was younger then and found comfort in its high school drama and socially awkward characters, who were relatable and felt real. The supernatural yarn it weaved was surprisingly dark, yet grounded in events that felt possible in its strange world of ghosts and timeloops. But players who made it the end were likely left with at least a few unresolved questions, and Oxenfree II: Lost Signals tantalizes with promises of answers, or at least a deeper glimpse into the strange phenomena that occurred on Edwards Island all those years ago. While Oxenfree II delivers in that regard, its narrative and new exploration mechanics felt disappointingly safe for most of its runtime, failing to surprise and hook me in the way its predecessor did (outside of a few key moments); still, fans of the original owe it to themselves to see this story through to its conclusion.

Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Gex Trilogy is in development and will release on Switch, Square Enix and Limited Run Games just announced.
Gex, a platforming series, got its start in 1995. Gex: Enter the Gecko followed in 1998, and Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko closed the series out in 1999. This marks the first time these games will be re-released on modern platforms. Also, as they’ll be using Limited Run Games’ Carbon Engine, we’ll likely see some improvements.

Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Gargoyles Remastered has now been officially confirmed for Switch. Additionally, Limited Run Games has revealed it has plans for a physical release.
If you hadn’t heard about this previously, we can’t blame you. It was casually announced during the Disney & Marvel Games Showcase that took place nearly a year ago, but almost nothing was shared for the time. The only tidbit shared thus far is that Empty Clip Studios is handling development. We unfortunately don’t have any sort of trailer.
Gargoyles first released on the SEGA Genesis in 1995. It’s an adaptation of the Disney animated series that ran for three seasons.
We’ll let you know when we have an update on Gargoyles Remastered.
