Absolutely fantastic. This is an engaging 8-part story where you make choices that direct the flow of the narrative. You'll find yourself managing a team of washed up villains trying to become heroes. You get to decide who stays and who gets cut, and the choices you make in dialogue change how the members of your team feel about you and how the story plays out. Every character is amazing, the banter between them is razor sharp, the performances are spot on, and the animation rocks. The karaoke is also hilarious.

The other half of this equation is a mini strategy game where you decide which of your dysfunctional z-list heroes to send to different crimes that pop up all over the city. It's a fun, light strategy game that sees you pairing different heroes to find synergies, and levelling them up to create your own synergies. It's a nice balance of theme, strategy and tension, with your heroes quipping and arguing all the way.

A hacking minigame makes an occasional appearance too, and while the puzzles contained within it are interesting and thought provoking, a few of these sections provide sudden difficult spikes. Failure in these doesn't affect the story, thankfully, but it felt unfair for my little hacking avatar to get destroyed by moving into something that had been offscreen until a second ago. A little re-ordering of these minigame levels might have done the trick, as some of the later ones feel better suited to teaching hazards than the earlier ones.

Overall, though, the occasional hacking frustration wasn't enough to dampen my enthusiasm. I loved every minute of this game, and am looking forward to going through it again choosing all the other options. Play it.

Eternal Strands is a wonderful game, and you can really feel the love the devs poured into it. There's a lot of genuine joy in discovering new bosses and figuring out how to take them down, and the modifiers added to the environments (sometimes you'll visit during a cold snap or a heat wave) keep revisits to places feeling fresh.

The story is also really well put together, though I do think the story beats & side mission narrative could have been spread out a little more, as I sometimes went from conversation to conversation to conversation and found myself raring to get back out into the action.

Wholeheartedly recommended, and I'm looking forward to seeing what Yellow Brick do next.

Animal Well is a solid puzzle Metroidvania, with a charming (but also sometimes disturbing) aesthetic and some genuinely fun puzzle mechanics that all feel pretty fresh. It's full to the brim with things to figure out, and it feels great when you manage it. I'm not going to go into too much detail, because the mechanics themselves are a joy to discover and use.

My only real gripe with Animal Well is that the reset time on some of the lethal puzzles is frustratingly long. You might get killed after 10 seconds in a puzzle room, then need to spend 3 minutes getting back there, only to fail again. Thankfully, there are only a handful of these puzzles in the game, but they definitely had me swearing at my screen.

Likewise, while most of the player abilities are great fun to use, there's one in the late-game that's VERY inaccurate and irritating to use. Again, though, you only need to use it a handful of times.

A stunning roguelike with a story that grows with every death.

Excellent game, frequently updated too. It's grown hugely since I bought it, and it already felt fully fleshed out. Only thing missing is a more thorough explanation of what all the doors scattered all over the place mean.
