Hold onto your hats, folks, the story for this game gets pretty weird! One day a failed experiment in a laboratory causes all humans on Earth to disappear. It also causes animals to start talking and inanimate objects to come to life. And then evil shadow creatures start attacking! Luckily a stuffed bunny named Nora has just created a living amoeba-like being that can fight these shadow creatures. She names it Teeto and together they embark on a 3D platforming adventure. This game reminds me of the many 3D platformers found on the N64 or maybe the early years of the GameCube and PS2 when these kinds of games were at their prime. Teeto is available on Nintendo and PlayStation consoles and PC, but reviewed on Switch 2 here.

Whether you played it on old game consoles or early cell phones, most people are familiar with the simple game Snake or any of its variants. But what if you added enemies and bullet hell shooter elements to the concept? Well you’d get Mechaconda. The nefarious Dr. Evil has taken over four planets and it’s up to you and your mechanical snake to stop him. Mechaconda is available on all current consoles and PC, but reviewed on PS4 here.
Blast’N Bounty (PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, X/S, PC)

Blast’N Bounty is a bullet hell 2D vertically scrolling shooter with a neat gameplay gimmick. You can choose the stage you want to tackle, and when you beat the boss, you can choose a different subweapon to take into the next level, like a homing shot or spread bullets. Kind of reminds me of Mega Man in a way. It’s available on all current consoles and PC, but reviewed on PS4 here.

Captain Soda (Switch, PC)
Posted on July 22nd, 2026 by
One of my favorite kinds of games are ones where you run around mazes chasing after things or running away from things. That’s why Pac-Man is still my number one favorite game of all time. Other games in this category I like sometimes have more platforming elements, like Bubble Bobble (another one of my all time favorites). So I was pleasantly surprised when reviewing Captain Soda, as it reminds me a lot of Bubble Bobble, Guzzler, and other games of that ilk. In this one you play as a soda bottle with a cape as you blow bubbles and other fizzy attacks at baddies in this single screen arcade style action game. It’s available on Switch and PC but reviewed on Switch here.
70’s Style Robot Anime Geppy-X (Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC)
Posted on July 20th, 2026 by
Even though I was born in the mid to late 70s, I did watch a lot of older anime in the 80s when I was a kid. Shows like Speed Racer, Star Blazers, Voltron, Battletech, and others. But what if you combined the style and animations of these old cartoons and put them in a 2D horizontally side scrolling giant robot shooter, complete with intro and outro credits and theme songs, previews for the next episode, and even toy commercials? Well you’d get Geppy-X, that’s what! Originally released on the PlayStation only in Japan back in 1999, you can now play it on modern consoles (reviewed on Switch here).
