Also in case you missed it, @squimmy previously wrote about Enjoy the Diner (at that time known only as its original Japanese title ファミレスを享受せよ). We also interviewed Oississui about making that and other games!

Daikon and I are still on vacation, so let's do a rerun! First up is **Shadow Break** and **Super Shadow Break** by bunaguchi, published in our very first issue! What if the paddle in Breakout was a ninja with cool abilities, and levels were broken up with huge boss fights? That's Shadow Break! The original is available for free, and the sequel is available on Nintendo Switch!

We've got another doubleheader for you today! Daikon wrote about the tense 1v1 digital and analog hybrid, BATTING CARDGAME! Let the record show that I almost always beat him!

Two articles for the price of one! Daikon wrote about Invercity, a game that quite literally asks you to flip your perspective back to being like a kid again, and an interview with the developer, Marudice!

Another double header! Daikon wrote about TANITANI WIZARD, a fantasy-themed bullet hell game where you gather up a party of adorable tanishi snails, and an interview with the developer, SparkWing! We talked about game jams and how their constraints help foster creativity, retro games and pixel art, and how sometimes it's just fun to destroy everything on the screen.

Wrote about Neko Can Dream, a gorgeous and surreal Game Boy-styled adventure game made by Nekobungi Sumire. Dive into people's dreams and figure out how to turn them into canned dreams. It's a haunting and strange story, and one that I really hope more people check out.
