And so, another excellent roguelike claims a chunk of my limited life: no wonder this cute Spore-like game is one of the biggest in Steam Next Fest, with 99% positive reviews
You simply will not guess the nature of Everything is Crab: The Animal Evolution Roguelite, an upcoming game from developer Odd Dreams Digital.

It’s a lovely little Steam Next Fest find, I’ll tell you that.Everything is Crab is less bullet heaven – which I’ve just accepted as workable shorthand for Vampire Survivors-likes…
Come chase your clone through an exquisite, comicbook-inspired world of seashells and ancient machines

Up and down the evolutionary ladder, even! A platform game in which you can evolve and devolve your character at will, to solve different puzzles? Good lord, we’ll make one million dollars out of this! Somebody get me the CEO of Midway. Alas for my career prospects, Midway is no more. And Helix is not a mascot platformer, probably to its benefit. As revealed by the…
