It's a slight bummer that I'm only now for the first time hearing about Caveblazers without letting its name go in one ear and out the other, but I'm ready to make amends. The bouncy roguelike platformer shares DNA with Spelunky and Risk of...

Modding is one of those beautiful parts of playing games on PC. It allows fans to implement little (or big) changes that can be just what a game needs to elevate it from great to truly wonderful. The best thing about it is that modding leav...

Capybara's new dungeon-delving adventure, Below, places a lot of confidence in its players. Aside from a few basic control prompts up front, the beloved indie studio offers almost zero explicit instructions. There's a fundamental faith that...

Below, the long-awaited new adventure from Sword & Sworcery and Super Time Force developer Capybara Games, isn't quite the game I expected it to be. Part of that is on the project's initial secrecy, and part of that is on me for decidin...

Nicalis Inc. has sent out a tweet featuring a short sizzle reel of some of the upcoming games, mostly showcasing the launch of block-busting puzzle title Crystal Crisis, which is headed to PS4 and Nintendo Switch in the second quarter of 20...

It has been a long time coming, but Capybara's Below will finally be releasing next week. Originally announced during E3 2013, Below will be coming on December 14, 2018, for Xbox One and PC. The game still looks quite pretty and should be a...

The fourth ToeJam & Earl is subtitled Back in the Groove, but there's a glaring oversight with this designation. ToeJam & Earl have always been in the groove. They were never out of the groove. There is no Stella-like rede...

Today's contest is chicken soup for your soul -- win a Switch copy of Soulblight. Who's got time for experience points and grinding when you can alter parts of your soul, instead? Take the easy way out and taint your own mortality by winnin...

Developer Dodge Roll has announced that the next update for Enter the Gungeon will be the final update to the game. After releasing the "Advanced Gungeons and Draguns" update, there were plans to create another paid expansion, but developme...

Announced at Microsoft's X018 event, the upcoming sci-fi strategy shooter Void Bastards looks like a graphic novel brought to life. It's love at first sight, and if it plays as well as it looks, it'll be a treat. The game is a balancing ac...

The awesome indie roguelike Road Redemption, inspired by Road Rash, is now available on PS4 and Switch. It will be heading to Xbox One in the coming weeks. The game can be yours for $19.99 off of the PSN or eShop (depending on console). It ...

Back in 2013, the indie game market wasn’t as flooded with roguelikes as it is nowadays. In the wake of Edmund McMillen’s ultra-successful Binding of Isaac, lots of devs tried their hand at crafting procedurally generated titles...

Rogue Legacy, the addictive "rogue-lite" adventure from Canadian developer Cellar Door Games, is set to bring its loot, monsters and many, many gruesome demises to Nintendo Switch in November.Already available on multiple platforms, Rogue L...

Contests are a way a life. Enter ours for a Steam Early Access key of Fate Hunters. It's tough for indie devs out there. I can't tell you how many I've come across in my short journey in the games industry that have told me as much. You're ...

Please don't get mad at this contest. Win a Steam key for Fury Unleashed. A lot can happen in five months. You can lose an arm or become a champion skier or change your name because sometimes bad words aren't a good thing to use in proper n...

A contest a day keeps the doctor away. Test your luck for a Steam copy of Synthetik. The only thing better than making a great game is making a great game even greater. And that’s exactly what Flow Fire Games has done with S...

Free games, free games; where for art thou, free games? They're here, and this time with collectible card game Mad Crown for Steam. What do you get when you mix an RPG, collectible cards, skill progression, dieselpunk aesthetics, monsters, ...

There were some fantastic games this year, and we're just about to enter a particularly strong fall release schedule, but few games will speak to me the way Dead Cells does. I just don't want it to end. Posting on Steam, developer Motion Tw...

I've lost track of how many copies I own of Risk of Rain, so what's one more? The excellent action-platformer roguelike has surprise released on Nintendo Switch today. It's available right now for $10. The permadeath is a little rough at f...

Upon the release of Super Meat Boy in 2010, independent game creator Edmund McMillen had finally struck it big. After years of making obscure and much smaller projects, he and Super Meat Boy co-creator Tommy Refenes became overnight success...

We don't offer up a ton of Xbox One giveaways here at Destructoid, largely because the response is frankly not nearly what it is for other platforms. There are exceptions, sure, but the Xbox One crowd is a pretty silent minority here at Dto...

It's safe to say every game developer working today has probably played and enjoyed a Legend of Zelda game at some point in their history. Nintendo's adventure series has been consistently popular for more than 30 years, and it's not h...

Up until this past weekend, ToeJam & Earl was a title I knew nothing about. I've heard of the games over the years, usually from people at GameStop romanticizing the days of their youth spent with it, but for decades it was just a ...

Have you had enough giveaways lately? Of course you haven't! What a crazy thing to even suggest. Let's keep the Summer of Giveaways rolling with some love for your Switch and give away 15 copies of Son of a Witch, available now on the Ninte...

For some reason the games industry doesn't seem to like sharing sales numbers with the public, so it's always interesting to hear about how a current game is doing straight from the source. This weekend at PAX I spoke briefly with one of th...
