The developer of Super Rad Raygun sent in a key for me to check out their retro-inspired action platformer.

Best Buds vs Bad Guys is another game that has sadly seen a delay of the Linux version. I'm a little sour here since I funded it on Kickstarter (broke my own rule there!).

Sometimes I get sent really interesting things to cover and sometimes I get sent some really basic, terrible stuff. Porradaria Upgrade & Porradaria 2: Pagode of the Night are two that firmly sit in the terrible pile.

'Prison Run and Gun' was a game I discovered because of an IndieDB giveaway, and I kept an eye on it since then. Considering it currently is on sale (60% off), I decided to finally try it. Apart from a particular but serious issue, I don't really have any reason not to recommend it.
