@hitpstudio.bsky.social Are you all doing a countdown to the Switch release of Schildmaid MX? I can’t tell how many days away the release date is on my own. www.nintendo.com/us/store/pro...

Schildmaid MX is a shmup you should totally have on your radar. It launches in November for Switch, Xbox and PlayStation consoles for $19.99. Watch the trailer now 😎 #gaming #videogames #indiegame

Let's browse a bit through the eShop to see what games are coming out later this month on Switch and Switch 2 and oh..! What's this?! 👀 If you come across Schildmaid MX as well, give it a wishlist add. You can do the same in the PSN and Xbox store! #indiegame #indiedev #shmup

It's been out on PC for a couple years now, but if you haven't already played Schildmaid you should absolutely check it out. It has the rare magic of an extremely low and approachable skill floor and a ridiculously high and expressive skill ceiling. I love it.

Beware if you play this game you may end up going down the shmup rabbit hole and not come back… see you down there hopefully 🫡

#CRTWR: Case: 'The Mole Murders' The trial of RGG Studios begins at 20:00 GMT today. We need your case file review in exactly three words by then to ensure the Judgment is fair. (Three-Word Reviews of Judgment aka Judge Eyes please.)

Mamorukun ReCurse! is yet another revived G.Rev shoot 'em up, one with an excellent central mechanic, the mastery of which allows you to flit between scoring- and survival-focused play at will. It's also far more widely available than its previous iterations, and is the definitive edition, to boot.

Cool Boarders BURRRN! (1999) is the true followup to CB2: Killing Session, as far as UEP Systems was concerned. Alas, they couldn't use the name due to Sony (SCEI) owning the name elsewhere. A melding of the first two games' best parts, later iterated by PS2 Code Alien in the following year...
