    Mirror Forge is a little indie horror joint with a lot of heart and a lot of glitches... but that's not really a deal-breaker for me. It's one of those scrappy super-indie titles whose charm is actually kinda amplified by its rough edges. The developer's love for Silent Hill, Eternal Darkness, and Stranger Things is apparent as our trauma-laden protagonist wanders through bloody hallways with ancient secrets, told to us via somewhat goofy voice acting. Cliché stuff, yes, but I can't help but enjoy that this is a game that knows what it is - an ambitious, mishmashed, indulgent homage to some really great things. A solo developer stretching their legs and seeing what they can pull off. A janky, but entertaining time. [Quick Look]

    Another horror game made with Unreal.
    Unreal is a powerful engine that gives you incredible visuals without much effort.

    Unreal is a powerful engine that gives you incredible visuals without much effort.
    Which is why so many generic games are developed.
    But in this particular game, even what should stand out just because it's unreal, looks ugly.
    Which is the only thing that these types of generic games stand out for, their visuals. Even in that this game fails.
    The only thing that seems right to me is its price. Everything else looks cheap.
    And it is not an excuse that it is made by a solo dev, because The Mortuary Assistant or Madison are too    … Full Review »

After spending 20 mins in the menus (because if you select 21:9 res everything gets out of place) until I discovered that if you alt+f4 you can load the game again and play it in your native resolution, I start a new game and it gets stuck on loading. Ok, let's be patient, a few tries more, and finally it loads. The character appears in his bedroom and, well, the number of issues and design choices are awful: narrow fov, mouse lag, mouse acceleration, forced TAA (maybe you can disable via .ini) and an enormous amount of motion blur even with post processing in "low" and bad performance.… Full Review »
