“Luna Abyss struggles with crafting consistently rewarding gameplay moments, but even the dullest of shooting sections is worth getting through in order to inch further into the wonderfully weird world and unforgettable story of this game.”

“The days of imprisonment tick down very slowly, and meanwhile, I have already been trapped in this game for over 10 hours. Luna Abyss is far from unique as a shooter, yet the platforming and shooting feel delightful and quite addictive. The extra elements such as double-jump, generating platforms that disappear after a few seconds, and hanging on rails from a sort of roller coaster have all been shown before, but they do add a bit more depth to the platforming. The chaos of flying balls trying to destroy you, the enemies exploding in your face, the challenge, and the gameplay all work well, and at a very stable framerate. So, if you like a DOOM-style game, with mostly platforming and a little less shooting, this game ticks all the boxes.”

INFINITY AREAMay 20, 2026Score 80Pre-release Review

“Luna Abyss is a wonderful surprise in today’s indie gaming landscape. This single-player action-adventure game succeeds in creating a dark and fascinating world, driven by a remarkable artistic direction and an incredibly effective sound design. Its fast-paced gameplay becomes more and more enjoyable over time thanks to the various abilities unlocked throughout the adventure. However, the game is not without flaws. The puzzles lack depth, and the aim lock mechanic makes combat far too easy. Despite these shortcomings, Luna Abyss remains a memorable experience that clearly deserves the attention of fans of narrative-driven FPS games and dystopian universes.”

“Fandisks are very hit-or-miss for me, with some of them being great, serving as a nice sequel title, and others that seem like they were made just to deliver the romance the original game practically didn't have. And unfortunately, Birushana: Winds of Fate falls into that second category. Even if you played the original, I'd still advise you to wait for a sale, unless you really, really want to revisit this story and see Shanao finally finding true love.”

“Zero Parades: For Dead Spies lives in the shadow of something bigger, and it never quite manages to escape it. Its biggest flaws come from a lack of confidence in itself, and when it speaks with its own voice, Zero Parades is truly special and memorable.”

Latest: Coffee Talk Tokyo

Screen HypeMay 20, 2026Score 90Pre-release Review

“There was a point during my Coffee Talk Tokyo review where I realised I had stopped thinking about the game as fiction. I was playing at around two or three in the morning (as is usual), making drinks for tired strangers, listening to people talk about grief, chronic pain, loneliness, love, anxiety, and all the tiny ways people try to survive the world, and I realised that I had seen all of this, so much of this, in the people around me. Coffee Talk Tokyo feels soft, but it's so incredibly real. While uncomfortably close to mirroring our reality, the quiet support its cast of characters offers each other is where the game makes its biggest impact. Coffee Talk Tokyo understands that connection matters, even more so now, when people feel more isolated than ever.”

“Luna Abyss is more than the sum of its parts, with individual pieces that will all feel familiar, so much so that you've likely played a dozen games just like it. But it's standout character design, environmental storytelling, performances, writing, level design, first-person shooting combat and 3D platforming that ends before it has a chance to outstay its welcome make it a must-play for single-player shooter fans.”

“While it’s a short experience, Duck Side of the Moon boasts graceful movement and controls that make zipping around a friendly little galaxy immensely fun. It does not revolutionize anything you’ve seen before that carries the “cozy” tag with it but rather shows incredible promise for a new studio making games, bringing light into a currently dim moment in the industry.”

“Luna Abyss is a great first-person shooter that shines in its Bullet Hell aspects. While it never reaches the heights of the best of the genre, the combat feels fluid, and the need to switch between weapons to defeat certain enemies adds a layer of strategy that prevents gameplay from going stale.”
