I have a soft spot for the rudimentary action side-scrollers. Perhaps because the times were simpler then and with fewer alternatives or perhaps because we don't get a lot of them anymore, The Legendary Axe on TurboGrafx is a straightforward good time.

Its only differential is a charge attack that does more damage when held. Aside from that, you'll run into familiar caves, defeat some creepy crawlers and do the occasional boss fight. It looks good and looks good doing it. Easy.

Also, both regions received dope cover art 👌

Which of these mushroom NPCs do you want to see in my game? Tell me why in the comments!

Big fan of these mushroom people :)

There were some really good trailers over the weekend. Life is Strange: Double Exposure and Slitterhead were two others that looked great and interest me a lot. Eriksholm: The Stolen Dream is probably the pick of the bunch overall for me. It is a top down stealth game set in early 1900s Scandinavia. Graphically it looks stunning, love the setting and the stealth gameplay looks highly impressive too. Got really high hopes for this.
