So Heroki is actually really good? It looks really generic but I've been advocating for 20XX and Ghost 1.0 so I know better.
Thank you. If it's easy I'll probably pass for now but keep my eye on it.I really enjoyed Heroki, first on iOS and now on Switch. It's a little bit of a breeze to play through, but it's enjoyable throughout its duration.

I really like Heroki. Well worth the $7 I preordered it for.So Heroki is actually really good? It looks really generic but I've been advocating for 20XX and Ghost 1.0 so I know better.
Also, has ANYONE played Starship Avenger Operation?! I'm really curious about it, but my expectations are still pretty low.
one would be doing the exact thing they did for their 3DS applications already :)I would have been all over Korg Gadget if they had implemented a way to export the music you create. Recording via the headphone socket is not sufficient.
At the very least, there should be a way to render a wav or mp3. I can think of a few easy ways they could have made it possible to get the file off of the Switch.
The core gameplay of Rogue Aces is very solid and fun. Have a feeling after an hour or so of play that it's all going to get a bit repetitive though. Hopefully I'm wrong.
Only played Yoku, which is short but really easy and relaxing.Speaking of these games... i am in the mood for one, which is the better relaxing Island romp? Yoku or Heroki?
Yup i had the exact same problem here in Portugal. They didn't ship to my country in either of the other countries amazons.That or the 20000PD one is what I wanted my four some weird reason they are not available in the Netherlands :(
So I'm hoping somebody has good experience with a different type of powerbank that would be available here
What did they do on the 3DS?one would be doing the exact thing they did for their 3DS applications already :)

Yoku is the longer game of the two. I love them both, so you can't lose either way.
What do you love about Yoku? I remember seeing mixed reviews at the time it came out. I think I missed the review on your site though.
...Yoku's Island Express is overall a highly endearing and pleasant pinball game mixed with Metroidvania sensibilities. The story will last about five hours for most players, but the amount of extra content and the way the island is so much fun to explore--backtracking notwithstanding--made me want to continue long after I reached the credits and even long after I acquired the Platinum on my PlayStation 4 build of the game. The pinball meets Metroidvania mishmash of concepts put on display in Yoku's Island Express is a successful experiment, and it's put Villa Gorilla on my list of developers that I can't wait to see what they cook up next.
Gungeon is really freakin good. Do any games like these have online play / co-op?
I reviewed it a little late--early this month--these were my thoughts:

Game of the Day
Ready your trunk, it's time for an adventure!
Elephants are a mighty protectors of the world, born from the stars once per millennium. This is the age of Elephant Yono. But Yono is still so very young and in a kingdom inhabited by feudal Humans, undead Bonewights and robotic Mekani, it's not easy to keep one's trunk out of trouble.
Yono and the Celestial Elephants is a grand adventure, featuring carefully designed puzzles, treasure hunts, a sprinkling combat and a world full of people. Play as a young elephant tasked to save a world he's never seen before, and explore the rich history of a kingdom where humans, zombies and robots live side by side.
Features
- Use your elephant trunk to solve puzzles and find secrets. Load it up with air, water and other things for different effects.
- Visit 4 towns full of people, shops and side-quests.
- Solve 3 deep dungeons of puzzles, monsters and finally a scary boss.
- Explore forests and caves to find treasures and upgrades.
- Discuss ascetic virtue ethics with the undead, existentialism and freedom of will with the robots, and political philosophy and the roots of power and authority with the humans.
- Piece together ancient texts to uncover the history of the world, the development of human kind and the influence of past Elephants.

well it was just KORG M01D but that one let you export the midi files which is really nice if you have other software on a computer. And some (all?) of the others let you share files locally with other users using the tool.

none of them offered mp3 export or anything of the like, it was always done with live recording it from the headphone jack.
It has 82 metascore. Reviews aren't really mixed. It is a great game.
You're absolutely right, of course. Please see my post just above yours (I probably posted just as you were writing yours). I just had gotten Yoku and Yono confused. Sorry about that.
Pirateluigi what did you like about Yono? Would you recommend it?
It's the charm more than anything. You can dress Yono up in lots of adorable outfits, the characters you meet are pretty interesting, and it's fun to bash into things.
There's also a shockingly deep lore, that's more ambitious than good, but worth digging into.
It's just a really charming game throughout, and that'll get you pretty far in my book. Just don't go in expecting much challenge.
It sounds very appealing, that KS for the info. Are the combat/puzzles completely mindless?
Yeah, I don't really understand KORG's Nintendo releases.Even that sucks. I guess they just don't want people using this to create music at high quality and not buying their expensive synths.
Just an FYI re: Hand of Fate 2:
There is a known bug in the Switch version where sometimes trying to choose your companion manually for a challenge softlocks the game. This only happens under certain conditions but it happened to me.
Gotcha, thanks again for the info!Combat is very simple and the puzzles are basic Zelda style block puzzles.
I totally agree. I also got really interested in tarot cards thanks to stuff like Ultima IV and Persona.I have been having a blast with Hand of Fate 2. It has been the perfect balance against (and compliment to) my time with Octopath Traveler due to its unorthodox, but still classic, approach. The narration and pacing are fantastic, the combat is satisfying enough, and there's just enough chance and stacking progression to make it seem perfectly balanced IMO. Things can always take a turn for better or for worse at any moment, but re-running quest lines has always been very rewarding. I can see myself sinking a ton of time into this, and it's so worth the $30 buying price.
I'm also really into esoteric stuff and have harbored a fascination for tarot decks and their interpretation for years, so it's right up my alley; Just the right amount of spoop and "darkness."
Yeah, everything about the game is fantastic. And yet I still see plenty of ways it could be even deeper, richer, better for Hand of Fate 3. I really hope they will keep building on this series, adding more mechanics and more complex storytelling/adventuring. What's here is already immensley satisfying.I have been having a blast with Hand of Fate 2.

It's some how very fresh while offering an experience that feels very true to the tabletop RPG.
The narrator VA is up there with Wayne June in Darkest Dungeon and the music is fantasic. I love the atmosphere.
Oh yeah, the actual gameplay is pretty different but the narrator is like if H.P. Lovecraft was your DMI've never played Darkest Dungeon but if it's along the same neo-classic lines as HoF I'll probably check it out.
Good to know. I bought it yesterday but I'll wait for a patch to start it up.
Awesome to hear, thank you. I'll pick it up tonight.100x better. It's truly a great golden-age highscore game, on par (and kinda a weird mix of) Bomb Jack and Amidar. So not DK/Pac-Man tier but definitely part of the classics. Simple yet very rewarding and you can sooooo many hidden moves using the awesome jump/gravity/inertia physics... I thought about making a video about such moves but I'm sure it's already been done by a much better player (I'm decent, nothing great).

HoF2 is that good?
I remember enjoying the 1st on XboxOne's GWG but it was a deck cards game iirc? My memory is fuzzy on that one, but I know I liked what I had played (not much, admittedly)
On the sequel's page on eShop I get an action-brawler vibe mixed in the strategy part? Or how does that work?
