News involving the video games developed in Canada, and the people who make them. Indie Games, AAA Games, and in between featured and reported on.
As previously announced, Graceful Explosion Machine is out now on Nintendo Switch. The Vertex Pop shooter was previously announced last year, and then later confirmed for a Switch launch window release later. You can pick it up on your Switch right now for $13.99 CAD.
We'll have a full review for the game sometime in the next week, but until then you can check out my general thoughts below (it's really good):
Vertex Pop was kind enough to give me a code for Graceful Explosion Machine on Switch so I wanted to do a quick video on my thoughts - in short - I'm really digging it! There will be an actual review on www.torontogamedevs.com - so look forward to that!
