Gigasword is so grounded in its NES inspirations you'll want to play it on a CRT TV. Creative puzzle mechanics will appeal to a certain type of retro player yearning for the classics. My review:

I’ve been playing GIGASWORD and having an absolute blast. I’ll talk more in depth about my time with this puzzle platformer on the @passthecontroller.bsky.social podcast this week and if it holds up to why we gave it a best of PAX East award earlier this year. passthecontroller.io/2025/05/18/o...

Our review for #GIGASWORD is out now! Special thanks to @akuparagames.bsky.social for access to the game! youtu.be/X2GO4YKxmNE?...

GIGASWORD is a fresh 2D metroidvania that balances puzzles and action quite well while at times weighing itself down with hyper-precise movements and more. Read our review:

Drinking water like an 8yr old who just came in from playing is such a nostalgic experience, why am I not doing this more...

Not yucking others yums but everytime I see the Golden scene from Kpop demon hunters I cant help but imagine it's Smile2

Trying to relearn how to draw and man... The Hollow Knight guys spiky horns are ruining my life

Listening to classical music for a new project and man... some of these dudes just never missed

League of Legends is starting to consume me...

Playing through the Evil Within and the "Haunted" are INSANE. Everyone sees my lil pinky toe and decides it's fuck me day

It's always funny to me that devs push "free demos." Free demos give existence to "paid demos" which I've... never seen. Did paid demos ever exist or do we just put "free" in front of it so we can target some receptor in peoples brain

Valorant has become so unfun to play these days. I don't know what happened but everyone is mald right out of the gate and treats everyone like scum of the earth. I've had 5 games in a row with half the team malding while passive aggressively berating everyone in the lobby.
