Transvaal went hands on with Crisol: Theatre of Idols on the PS5. The game is clearly influenced by the likes of Bioshock and Resident Evil which makes a beautiful and coherent combination from the devs at Vermila Studio.

Minishoot' Adventures - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition key art image

Minishootโ€™ Adventures surprise dropped on the Switch + Switch 2 today.

If you didn't play it on Steam, trust me, that game is an absolute treeeeeat. Twin-stick shooter + one of the better metroidvanias.

An honour to include an early demo on my Mixtapes. Hit it up! ๐Ÿš€
