Bubble Frog DX officially releases today on Steam! Originally launched on itch.io last year, this Game Boy Color–inspired puzzle game by Timbo Johnson made it to a full release after a successful Kickstarter campaign I backed late last year. With its adorable style and quirky difficulty options, it’s one of my must-plays for 2024!

Earlier this year, I reviewed Flock by Hollow Ponds—a creature-collecting, colorful open-world game filled with stunning environments and unique characters. You can watch it above!
They’re back with Wilmot Works It Out, the second installment in the Wilmot series! It’s a puzzle-building game where you complete beautiful images to decorate your house. It looks super cute and fits right in with their colorful theme. My review is coming next week, and I’ve added the soundtrack down in Quest Vibes!

The campaign for Lone Fungus 2 didn’t hit its goal, but they’re coming back next week with a new name-Lone Fungus Melody of Spores, updated gameplay, and a fresh campaign. Check out the link to save your spot and get notified when it launches!

Quest Vibes
One of the classic action-adventure games, Beyond Oasis—or The Story of Thor: A Successor of The Light (a way cooler title!)—features the best in chiptune composing, courtesy of Yuzo Koshiro. I got to play a bit of this game when I was younger, and recently stumbled upon the soundtrack again, which I just had to share with you all. Yuzo has composed some of the most iconic soundtracks, with notable works in Sonic the Hedgehog, Streets of Rage, Shenmue, and many more.
He has been asked to create two songs for the soundtrack of Yacht Club Games' highly anticipated Mina the Hollower, coming soon! This makes me feel like the game is definitely going to be a hit!
