Playdate Update: Battleship Godios & Forrest Byrnes
It’s the penultimate week of the ‘oh oh, blue light means there’s new games to play!’ Playdate season, and we’re here, as you rightfully now EXPECT to give our thoughts on the bizarro pairing of Battleship Godios and Forrest Byrnes: Up in Smoke.
A shmup-come-Arkanoid clone with modern racer style rewind? A procedurally generated platformer that tangentially connects to the first person narrative game Firewatch? Quite literally, ONLY on the Playdate.
As a bonus for fans of lil’ cranky, Jonathan also lays down thoughts on Core Fault, Word Trip, and Gravity Express, all available via the machine’s on board Catalog store, and a sideloaded port of indie darling Celeste.
Chris bores us with updates on an Evercade favourite, starts It Takes Two, the third in the loosely connected Josef Fares co-op trilogy, and regales tales from a recently Steam Deck compatible Forza Horizon 4.
