I've started looking at the next game I'll be doing a review of for Nintendo Life. Owing to embargo shenanigans, I won't name it or give much in the way of specific details, but I will say that it's really, really frigging good — like, way better than I expected it to be.
It's also a bit rough around the edges in a few ways, but these days I tend to find that that sort of thing gives something a certain degree of charm rather than being something to be put off by. It's a game that I think may well have been done a bit on the cheap, but that doesn't mean that it has, in any way, sacrificed its sense of style. In fact, it's one of the most stylish, visually distinct games I've played for quite a while.
Suffice to say, I booted it up for a quick go earlier and didn't stop until over two hours later, I was having such a good time. It's always a real pleasure to encounter something like this: something that you just want to play, enjoy and engage with for hours on end. So yes, I'll be putting a decent amount of time into this before penning some words for Nintendo Life, for sure — and I'm looking forward to doing so.
Sorry I can't be more specific, but you only have about a week to wait before you can find out exactly what it is I'm talking about!
A week? Shit, better play a bit more…
