Core Keeper is on Steam, PS5, Switch, Xbox series S/X and Game Pass!
Corekeeper really upended my opinion on this genre when I first discovered it more than a year ago. I am very picky about my survival crafting games, so picture my surprise when I began a playthrough and in what felt like a blink I had carved out a giant cave, made a multi bedroom estate, had a thriving farmland, and the claimed lives of 3 major bosses under my belt. Yeah.. it’s one of those.

But unlike most games that use that word as a descriptor… Yume Nikki’s atmosphere is not breathtaking, it is terrifying.

I’m going to be completely honest with you. I did not know about Drill Core too long ago, in fact- I was only made aware of it once I was kindly approached by the folks at TinyBuild about possibly covering it. I saw the game was due out for early access on the 12th,(meaning it’s playable as of the time of me uploading this) and at a 20 percent discount no less.. I was like… ughhh I gotta get this video out soon man… and while balancing my day job.. so.. I told them I’d try it, and if I liked the game.. I’d agree to do a sponsored video. Fast forward about a dozen hours of playtime, and to their delight and my own.. yeah.. I really enjoyed my time with Drill Core.
OMORI Waffles animation by OsulanCult of The Lamb Unholy Alliance has Issues (REVIEW)Boss Door2024-08-15 | Cult of The Lamb has come a long way since it’s original launch, and as someone whos played each update day 1 it feels really cool to fire up a fresh save and see how seamless all of the new content has been integrated into the game. Someone coming into this now will get a much more complete experience and while it’s a shame that some of this wasn’t included at the beginning it’s always cool to see a game you love get a good update here and there. Some problems Lamb has are too deeply baked into the experience to truly fix with a flat out patch. Combat upgrades and variables do exist but aren’t nearly as varied and unpredictable as something like The Binding of Isaacs. The village management stuff feels more like you’re juggling a dozen simple things rather than a system that’s cohesively designed, and whether you decide to rule with an iron fist or be the most benevolent ruler imaginable it ultimately has no huge impact on how your followers conduct themselves or even how the game ends… which is a giant shame. Provided this game gets a sequel, which I have to imagine it will with how well it sold.. I think we can expect these issues to be addressed. All I ask is that the developers make the capybaras the main villain, which I don’t think is an unreasonable request.

TysmA ton of RPG Maker games got AnnouncedBoss Door2024-08-03 | If you’ve already seen the direct I have gone the extra distance and included as much cool facts about these releases in this video that I can that were not discussed in the original broadcast.
The earthbound fan direct has just happened as of the other day but even if you’re not too invested in earthbound there’s a lot to love here, because not only were a bunch of fan projects for the mother games announced, there are also several full scale steam releases for Indie RPGs that are inspired by Earthbound. One of which had a setting so original and out there that I couldn’t help but get excited for it.

OMORI Pink Tinted Love is a short but adorable mod with no combat, or huge stakes… that ships Sunny and Aubrey together. I didn’t know what to expect from a story like this at first and considering it was dealing with shipping I thought it’d feel way too fan fiction-y for me to take seriously… while there definitely are moments where Pink Tinted Love veers too much in the direction of headcanon and sometimes even the super natural… like a talking ghost, it is for the most part a well written and surprisingly faithful adaptation of these characters and demonstrates the creators understanding of base OMORIs writing style. I played through the whole thing on stream and took my time trying to find all optional dialogue and in this story.

GIRakaCHEEZER)Boss Door2024-06-14 | OneShot was almost very different in several aspects, huge parts of it are actually the way they are due to time constraints, such as the world machine looking the same as Niko. After speaking to one of the Devs I learned a lot about both the base and world machine versions of OneShot that made me walk away with a different perspective regarding the story.

Tako Animatic by cyclonescones ISAT Gameplay by Prismatic AngelAnother OMORI Project was Cancelled...Boss Door2024-05-08 | OMORI News continues to out as if it's an MMO instead of a niche RPG, several fan projects have gotten updates.
The biggest news of the week is unfortunately nothing positive. The OMOBOY mod was just cancelled, it was a fan project that reimagined OMORI by keeping it's aesthetic closer to the original webcomic and even changing some of the UI elements to match earlier screenshots. I covered it recently and really enjoyed what I played so its a big shame. They had a whole segment that reimagined the stair incident as a children's book, seriously it was great.

And as you progress through the story it becomes increasingly obvious what it's building up to. Some would argue the entire last scene has been ruined since the game was first released however.
Ever since an apocalyptic event known as The White Flash main character Brad has had to contend with a world that’s not only vapid of plant life and working architecture, but completely devoid of women, while that last one is a big victory for noise pollution it is overall a net negative to humanity for obvious reasons. After discovering a baby girl in the middle of the wasteland Brad vows to redeem himself, as in his childhood his sister Lisa tragically lost her life at her own hands after suffering years of awful treatment from their father: Marty. Brad feeling he hadn’t done enough to stand up to his dad's deprived acts decides to place his bets on this baby, who he's named Buddy.
Lisa Reflections of the Last Women animation by NCHProductions Buddy in Thumbnail by LumpkinldaliaWhen the RPG Traps you ForeverBoss Door2024-04-16 | In Stars and Time is leisurely paced and doesn't mind slowing things down for you to absorb it's handful of characters and places, though the premise makes it sound like it's rushing things. The game opens not at the start of a grand quest but in the closing chapter of it. Firing up a fresh playthrough is like starting your older brothers save file on a SNES RPG while he's gone and seeing a bunch of really well worn characters decked with items and skills you aren't familiar with. There's Siffrin, the main protagonist, Isabeau, a kind hearted fighter, Mirabelle the parties leader, Odile, a wise and measured magician, and Bonnie, a kid who misses every move they try to land.
Consider it another RPG Maker classic, but with some big annotations.

Outro song By Sergey NeissOMORIs Awful CommunityBoss Door2024-03-06 | OMORI is a game I love but the community has a lot of issues that it has yet to sort out. In this video I'll be covering some of the bigger issues that happened as well as bring attention to a lesser known person in the fandom that I feel is important to know about.
When it comes to Sunny, Hero, Kel, Basil, Mari, or Aubrey, there is no force in this world that can stop OMORI fans from protecting them, but the instant a real person gets involved the situation becomes very different.

Faithfully recreating a title that is a living version of OMORIs earliest screenshots and assets was likely the mission statement behind the OMORIBOY mod for OMORI, a fan project that- while unfinished, does show promise. Going through it was kind of surreal... there's moments in this thing that are tonally at odds with what should usually go in an OMORI styled story that make me ask... a lot of questions.

patreon.com/bossdoorrealCult of the Lamb is Flawed (But Sins of The Flesh Is a Good Update) REVIEWBoss Door2024-01-24 | Cult of the Lamb Sins of the flesh is the latest update for Cult of the Lamb and while it may have taken awhile to cross the finish line it's pretty good.
Call me The One Who Waits because I’ve been anticipating each of these patches as they get announced, especially relics of the old faith, which added some sorely missing additions to the games dungeons. It's come a long way, and it’s a game you have to activity try not to fall in love with. Between River Boys infectious sound track, dazzling color palettes, and the dangerously adorable villagers, you just can't take your eyes and ears off this thing. Although there was nothing that would leave a lasting gameplay impression, owed to the underwhelming combat loop and general feeling of being feature incomplete- it was very hard not to forgive it regardless.

Terrifies MeBoss Door2024-01-19 | I'm no A.i. artist but, even if we account for all of the photoshop editing and adjustments that come with the craft... I'd wager that losing something you were able to generate with a prompt will not have the same feeling as losing something you had to create brush by brush. It is very much, right now at the very least- a type of medium where you create in sweeping broad statements rather than from the ground up.

Our protagonist this time isn’t Frisk but rather a boy named clover who looks similar but with an added dose of yee-haw. Some familiar faces return like Toriel and Flowey, but for the most part this cast is entirely new comers that earn their keep and quickly worm their way into your heart.

Scott Pilgrim Takes off runs with the same premise it's other adaptations did before it. Have you ever been so captivated by a person you just met.. so utterly entranced by someone who only just recently wormed their way into your life, that everything felt like lights? That despite there being a plethora of reasons not to pursue that person and everyone you talk to advising against it, you decide to go for it anyway? In this review I explore just how well this series stays true to itself.The OMORI Communities Biggest ProblemBoss Door2023-11-24 | The OMORI community has a fair amount of issues but this one in particular was something I really had to talk about.
The Amazing Digital Circus seems to be getting unapologetic praise across both my friend circle and broader social media, being touted as one of the best animated projects to come out in some time, the fanart is rampant and the chatter over whats possibly to come is everywhere. Much to my confusion the show I ended up watching felt very... very different from the one I was described. To put it bluntly, lots of the characters felt like they lacked depth, and it was rare that the show could steal a chuckle of me. Perhaps it's a symptom of getting overhyped from all of the good reviews from viewers it's getting online but suffice to say, While The Amazing Digital Circus does have issues, it's not all bad.

It's the tragedy of a tight space caving from all sides in pitch darkness, it's the broken promise of telling a loved one that everything is going to be ok... and then failing them.
It feels less a game, and more an unholy piece of lost media that is begging not to be played.

It had several neat ideas like a boss battle called Little Brother, a cat burglar enemy... and most importantly, a brand-new food item called Sunny's mom.
Everhood is not what you think it is, despite the footage you've seen... despite the gossip surrounding it... there is a shade of wonder and tonal identity to this game that is seldom matched in other titles. There are only a handful of indie games I've walked away from that have an x factor to them, a unique and foreboding feel that is ever present but I can't quite put a face to... Everhood has landed itself on that tiny list.

You see, Brad transversed multiple biomes with dozens of different characters ranging from a literal fish, to a man dressed as a fish to rescue his daughter. It was not a short adventure, and over it's runtime we saw multiple flashbacks painting an accurate picture of the tortured soul that is Brad Armstrong. With a runtime of roughly 20+ hours, you'd be forgiven for thinking Lisa the Hopeful, a much smaller fan derivative work that only has a fraction of that time (around 4 hours) has the odds stacked against it.
In the end, Lisa the Hopeful surprised me though. Here is my review.

And on the Cult of The Lamb side of things we did get some neat editions. It isn't a crazy large amount of content for either game, but as a small appetiser for inevitable bigger things down the line for both games it does it's job of being a nice, smaller crossover event.
