Critics broadly agree that the project goes far beyond a visual update, presenting a carefully reworked version of one of the franchise’s most distinctive entries.

This 2D space sim with ship building mechanics and great player reviews proves that smart design still matters in 2026.
The Last Starship shows that even in 2026, a 2D game can still feel exciting if the ideas behind it are strong. From the first hours, it’s clear that this game isn’t trying to impress with visuals alone. Instead, it pulls players in with systems that make sense and gameplay that stays interesting over time. That approach seems to be working, judging by the many positive reviews players are leaving, often pointing out how well the game plays rather than...

Aces of Thunder brings VR dogfights back in style, offering immersive air combat, solid modes, and strong potential despite minor issues.
VR has been a bit quiet lately. Fewer big releases, fewer reasons to dust off the headset, and a lot of players wondering when the next “must-play” experience would show up. Aces of Thunder feels like one of those rare games that actually gives VR fans a reason to come back. It doesn’t try to reinvent everything, but it focuses on doing one thing really well: putting you inside a fighter plane and letting you feel every second of a...

Half Sword finally hits Early Access, but performance issues clash with its brutal, physics-based combat and chaotic medieval fun.
Half Sword has been on a lot of players’ radars for a long time, mostly thanks to its demo. That early build was shared, streamed, and clipped endlessly, and for good reason. It felt rough but exciting, the kind of thing you mess around with for hours just to see what happens. Because of that, expectations for Early Access — and eventually a full release — were pretty high. People wanted more content, more depth, and a smoother version of...

Don't Stop, Girlypop! turns speed into your best weapon

Don't Stop, Girlypop! is a fast arena shooter where movement matters most, mixing bold visuals with amazing early reviews.
Don't Stop, Girlypop! doesn’t look like most shooters, and that’s the first thing you notice. Instead of dark colors and serious tones, it hits you with bright visuals, bold colors, and a style that feels ripped straight out of early-2000s pop culture. Everything is loud, shiny, and unapologetic. It feels more like stepping into a hyperactive music video than loading up a traditional action game, and that alone makes it hard to ignore.
Once you’re in, the game keeps things focused...
