If any of y’all are fans of classic Flash games, you probably know who Nitrome is. Well today, they announced their new Nitrome Classics series! They’re remaking some of their flash games with 60 FPS, widescreen, remastered visuals, and a bunch of new content for PC, mobile, and Switch!

The three entries announced so far are:

  • Twin Shot Deluxe - All of Twin Shot 1 and 2’s levels, plus a brand new 50-level Atlantis world, new tweaks and skins, and an expanded local co-op. This one will be released first, and it already has a Steam page up.

  • Silly Sausage - A collection of the original Silly Sausage flash game, plus the mobile games Silly Sausage in Meat Land and Silly Sausage: Doggy Dessert. I don’t think any new content was shown off for them in the trailer, but I’m at least glad more of Nitrome’s games aren’t locked to just mobile devices!

  • Skywire - I’m assuming it includes both Skywire 1 and 2’s levels even though the trailer just shows Skywire 2 stuff. Probably won’t have Skywire VIP games due to copyright. But it also seems to have a new world of levels with brand new hazards to face off against!

Honestly this is a dream come true for me, to finally be getting new content for these games after so many years! I just hope they choose a reasonable price for them considering they’re based on games that were available for free, and they seem to be making quite a few of them. If they charge $5 for each remake of their 140-ish games, then that’s gonna add up quite fast.

Huh! VR game Synth Riders gets a totally new flat version on Nintendo Switch! (It even has some licensed DLC packs from the original too, neat)

Anyway I bought and played the Kendrick Lamar experience DLC about a week or so ago. Pretty cool track and level.

Double Huh!
World War Z, the game all about running, climbing zombies that pile up on top of each other, are releasing an AMC Walking Dead DLC in January with zombies that… don’t do that! :laughing:

2026 is the 30th anniversary year of the first Persona game, so Atlus will take the opportunity to milk it. Back for the 25th anniversary, that basically amounted mostly to just being a bunch of Japanese exclusive merch and events.

Hopefully the 30th brings some more meaningful announcements. Fans are speculating P6 being announced, I struggle to imagine P6 happening until after the release of P4 Revival.

An actual trailer for P4 Revival would be nice. Really, my big hope would be for P1 and P2 to finally get ported.

I never played Anthem, but I came across a reminder that its servers will be shut down in a week. The game has not received an offline mode and thus becomes literally unplayable. Let it serve as an example of how not to handle things at the end.

Idk what they want to do with that IP honestly. I feel like they shot themselves in foot with it after Youngblood and adding that stupid level up mechanic. If they bring it back, they have to remove it.
Also, we need to be allowed to kill Hitler, since it is said that’s what BJ did offscreen in Youngblood.

I’m probably the only person who played Wolfenstein and enjoyed the retrofuturism of the brutalist architecture over the gameplay. If they did a stealthy exploring game like Dishonored, set in the same German occupation of the Wolfenstein games and using that architectural style, it would be so good
