In games media, especially recently, the discussion about whether or not games must be fun is always an ongoing topic. There are those who believe that if a game does not provide a certain level of entertainment, then it is not worth the time to play. However, on the other side there are those who say that a game doesn’t ...

https://youtu.be/N6rLRwsF198 Today’s standout on Greenlight is Hush, an action-adventure game that aims to recreate our childhood fears. The game is said to draw the majority of its inspiration from the irrational fears that we all felt in our childhoods.

The game is described as a “classic shoot ’em up meets match-3 puzzler, which as we’ve seen with other games such as Galacide, can be a very strong combination. The hectic nature of the shoot ’em ups ...

Sky Force Anniversary is a game that I first discovered on my phone. I was looking for something new to play, and I came across what looked like a fairly interesting shoot ’em up. What I found was not only a really solid addition to the genre, but one of the best games that I had played on my mobile ...

Considering the backgrounds of the ...

https://youtu.be/AH_x-rPV460 Today’s Greenlight Spotlight is on Mongrel. Mongrel is a metroidvania platformer that is described by the developers as a mix between “Conker’s Bad Fur Day and Cave Story”. I will definitely admit that at first glance, the game didn’t look like much to me. As the days went on and I began seeing it time and time again, I ...
