Many Faces is a single-screen platform shoot ’em up from the recently prolific Eastasiasoft and continues their recent trend for basic shoot ’em ups with very easily obtained platinum trophies. In this game you play as an egg-shaped being (very reminiscent of the ZX Spectrum character Dizzy) who can walk […]

We’re not sure where Eastasiasoft are finding all these games but they’ve managed to continue their recent run of quirky shoot ’em ups. Task Force Kampas is a vertically-scrolling shoot ’em up which has plenty in common with those recent Eastasiasoft releases (Null Drifter, Red Death and Rainbows, Toilets and […]

Gun Crazy is a run and gun, side scrolling shooter that comes our way from Ratalaika Games, cheap and easy platinum trophy specialists. Gun Crazy ticks all those boxes but there is no Vita version, at least for now although there seems to be one in the works, so you […]

Ratalaika are back and after last month’s Syrup and the Ultimate Sweet they’ve ported another visual novel in the form of Blind Men. Ian quite liked that one so have they sourced another decent one or will this just be for those looking for a simple PS4 and Vita platinum? […]

Rush Rover is a top-down, twin-stick shoot ’em up from Radio, the studio of one-man developer Chengjin Wu. The coding, graphics and music were all done by him via Game Maker Studio. This might make it all sound a little bit unexciting, especially as we’re awash with twin-stick shooters on […]

We reviewed Ratalaika’s Super Destronaut DX back in 2018. It was a Space Invaders clone with nice neo-retro visuals but was a bit lacking in terms of power-ups and any kind of meaningful challenge. This sequel however switches up the genre moving it from the standard one-screen 2D shoot ’em up to a standard […]

Knightin’+ is another retro-themed indie effort from the ever-prolific peeps over at Ratalaika Games, the publisher best known for singlehandedly keeping the Vita alive while also throwing around cheap platinum trophies like confetti. They’ve explored so many genres (mainly because their MO seems to be to publish pretty much anything that […]

Project Starship is a cheap and cheerful vertically-scrolling shoot ’em up by Panda Indie Studio and it is available now on PSN. It’s a game that gets a lot right but also a few things wrong. The premise of the game is pretty simple, you pick from one of two playable […]

Iron Snout is a beat ’em up from Lithuanian coders SnoutUp and they describe the game’s genre as “arcade wolf fighting” which is a fair assessment of what the game asks you to do. It is published by Ratalaika Games and so comes in PS4 and Vita versions as you […]
