From 2D to 3D and back to 2D again, the original platforming classic Super Meat Boy returns with a slick remaster complete with new levels and too many old saws

Earlier this year in a bit of a shakeup for the fleshiest kid in town, Super Meat Boy entered into a new dimension in the aptly named Super Meat Boy 3D. I've not played it but it seems like a good take on the format. Clearly, though, sometimes you just need to play the hits, as a new release of the original game is on the way in the form of Super Meat Boy Again+, a remaster with updated graphics, levels and plenty more.

Cover your robot body in magical fungus aplenty and galavant across a mystical, Soulslike world in MycoRelic, now out in 1.0

I often find it quite dull that the main takeaway far too many people have taken from Dark Souls , aside from thinking that the most interesting thing is its combat, is that it's all so bloomin' grimdark. I'm not saying I need sunshine and rainbows, I'd just like a vibe that's even remotely trying to be different from FromSoftware's seminal work. And so! I am quite pleased to discover MycoRelic, a Soulslike that pits you as a robot that covers its body in mushroom parts that offer elemental powers. Read more

Echoes of Mirror's Edge, Dishonored and a dream set in Italy I once had can be found in Boars in Rome, an expressive parkour platformer set in dystopian Rome

Years ago, I had this dream where I was parkouring through a greatly sunken version of Venice, no doubt sourced from the many hours I put into Assassin's Creed 2 as a teen who should have been studying for their GCSEs a lot more than they were. It's stuck with me after all this time mostly because of how much I wanted to capture that feeling again somehow, as the real Assassin's Creed didn't quite cut it. And lo and behold, there I was today browsing Bluesky when I came across Boars in Rome, a Mirror's Edge and Counter Strike Surf inspired parkour platformer set in a dystopian version of Rome.

"There’s always a night when Rome burns": South Of Midnight director says that Xbox funding it was "unsustainable", at least in hindsight

Compulsion Games parted ways with former owners Xbox , having landed on the long list of things Microsoft were determined to ditch as part of multi-round mass cuts this year. Now, South of Midnight creative director David Sears has suggested that an eventual pulling of the rug was something he feared throughout the game's development, to the point where he seemingly doesn't think he'd have funded it if he'd been in the shoes of Xbox execs.
