I had no idea that ‘chile colorado’ is that style of beef that is simmered in red sauce and tastes real good in a burrito. I’ve had this plenty of times but never connected the name with it. La Costeña’s take on it is tasty af, but I’m the kind of weirdo that doesn’t like… messy food. It’s one of the best things about a good, well-wrapped burrito. This one was unfortunately a bit messy and even led to burrito disintegration in the latter bites, so as good as this is, I’ll likely pass on it in the future.
This is a cool mechanic and I wish I had the imagination to see this expanded as a longer game. But this short experience is still fun. It reminds me of Gyromite which will never be dislodged from my psyche.
This is a rad little text-based adventure game with visuals to go along with it. I love to see small projects like this and always feel inspired by them.
What a weird and fun game. The tone is something like Taika Waititi’s old west. I love seeing games like this make it onto home consoles (Nintendo Switch in my case).

Ah okay, it’s a remix of all the good Sonic games. I enjoyed it and it’s certainly the best Sonic game I’ve played since the Sega Genesis days.
I’m still kinda reeling after playing this. It’s a very Kojima game with equal parts violence, techno-sociological commentary, adolescent horniness, and strong tone/aesthetic. Ultimately, the Sega CD version I played is just really good. The first half is stronger with its genuine take on noir and investigation gameplay, whereas the second half loses steam when they clearly had to cut content and cram it all into long expository cutscenes. It’s still an impressively long game with plenty to chew on.
