You probably already know this if you watched the @wholesomegames Direct, but Alblune's SQUEAKROSS: HOME SQUEAK HOME🐭🧀 is now available on Steam... and Switch! 🥳🥳🥳 (And yes, it works beautifully on Switch 2 as well 👀)

It's been lots of fun to adapt the many jokes and puns in this game to bring them to a Spanish audience. We don't want to spoil (m)any surprises, but... sorry in advance. That said, just for the record, Alex and Luka have approved every single one of the bad jokes we came up with. 😂

On top of that, this game is a massive milestone for us: it's been an extremely rocky road, but one of our translations has FINALLY made it to consoles!! But, with a tiny little bit of luck, it will only be the first of many... and you might not even have to wait much longer for the next one.

Thank you once again to Alblune for placing their trust on us. You can't even begin to imagine how excited we are about this... 😭😭❤️❤️

And many thanks to our wonderful friend @karasawr, professional vet, for helping us translate the rodent-related terminology that we weren't familiar with. 😅

my GOTY: i've said it over and over again. It's PEAK by landcrab (landfall/aggro crab) games. You are a scout whose plane has crashed on a mysterious island, and the only way to get back to civilization is to climb To The Peak. i really love it. i love it with friends (the ideal, considering there's proximity chat). i love it solo to chill out or grind for achievements. the physics the items the settings the customization. 100% a great game To Me.

my GOTY if i hadn't played peak so much: bandai namco finally did it. they made a digimon game that not only has interesting and memorable writing but is also actually fun to play. Digimon Story: Time Stranger is awesome. a turn-based rpg where you play an agent of a mysterious organization and have suddenly been launched 8 years into the past to stop a horrific, apocalyptic event in the future, helped by a mysterious girl who lives with her father and. a little boy with horns. hey dont worry about that. it turns out i am not a huge sprawling RPG guy (even though this game is a relatively short 45 hours for the main story and a few select side quests) but i still sunk time in to see what happens next and to see what freaks my team of digimon (3 in front! 3 in the back! access your others at any time!) turn into. there's like 450 of them shits And God Forbid You Include The DLC. if you wanna get into digimon: play time stranger. if you already like digimon and want a good game: play time stranger. if you like creature capture-like turn-based rpgs: play time stranger.

ok here are some other stuff i liked:

Lies of P: Overture: the dlc to the base game. it's really good when a DLC not only improves the original story, but can also stand well on its own. probably the best DLC i've ever played period. difficult but not impossible. and you get so many little outfits for P

Dragon Quest Builders 2: i didn't really expect to like DQB2 that much tbh. i have no nostalgia for dragon quest since the only other game i really played was DQ Monsters: The Dark Prince. but dqb2 is really fun. the characters were surprisingly thoughtful, writing was fun, gameplay was enjoyable from fighting to building (although i did like the building a lot more). malroth you are like a boyfriend to me

Squeakross: Home Sweet Home: picross! decorating a house! rats! this game has it all. admittedly i was into it a lot more for the picross because I Really Like Nonograms, but the house decor part is also enjoyable. grid-based with several (thankfully matching) color options to unlock. play it to enjoy mostly picross!

Ghost Trick: surprise: the team who keeps making games i enjoy (the ace attorney series) has another banger game. i'm really glad i was able to grab the HD version on steam from a sale, but tbh this is worth playing at full price or even on a DS emulator. fun puzzles that'll make your gears turn without frustrating you too much (except for the escape part.), characters written so well that it's hard to hate almost anyone, and a story with well-earned twists and turns that also made me cry a bit (not hard, but still). it also looks great and sounds awesome. please play ghost trick
