Early Access Review
As someone with a background in Minecraft Redstone, I find Virtual Circuit Board to be impressive. I've enjoyed building Redstone circuits for a long time, but Redstone has some frustrating limitations. One of the biggest issues with Redstone is its static nature, making it difficult to change once set in place. Additionally, Redstone circuits can be slow, and having to place repeaters to carry the signal further can add to the frustration. However, one of my favorite things about Redstone was the visual feedback I got after building a circuit. Seeing my creation while flying around in creative mode was always a satisfying experience. Virtual Circuit Board offers this same visual feedback but solves many of Redstone's problems by offering faster circuits that are easily movable and changeable. Overall, I highly recommend this “game”, especially for fans of Minecraft Redstone.

It's hard to believe that this game is completely free. The overall quality outclasses the majority of premium games I have played. If you are looking to kill an hour, this game is a fantastic way to do it. I am excited to see future games from this developer.

Gris is a very unique game. I have yet to come across anything like it. The visuals are the main focus in Gris. The game seems to revolve around putting the viewer in the perfect position to admire the artwork. Combine this with the amazing soundtrack and you find yourself immersed in the atmospheric world of Gris.

That being said, the game does not really innovate on many other fronts. The movement is extremely polished and fluid but not very interesting. Additionally, Gris (The main character) moves frustratingly slow. This does force the player to stop and take in the atmosphere, but it can make replaying sections very tedious.

Overall, it was a very good experience. If you enjoy game visuals and music this is the perfect game for you. However, if you are looking for an engaging and fresh platformer I feel that there are better options. In many ways, this “game” is more a piece of art rather than a game.

Celeste is the perfect example of an indie gem. I myself, am not a big platformer fan. I personally feel that the indie market is oversaturated with platformers. Celeste completely masters the platformer formula though. It definitely sticks out. The basic movement is polished to perfection. This coupled with the amazing story and level design makes for an amazing game that everyone should try.

Factorio is a game I have sunk quite a bit of time into and I plan to sink a lot more still. It is a base building game that deemphasizes survival. Instead of building to survive, you're rather building to increase productivity which allows you to build even more. I like to think of it as a complex Cookie Clicker game and just like Cookie Clicker, Factorio is dangerously addictive. Time does not exist when you are playing this game. You have been warned.

Magicka is a game were you play as a wizard, but not like every other magic game.
Instead of having a few set spells. You are in control of eight elements. Using these eight elements
Water, Lightning, Life, Arcane, Shield and Earth. You can blow enemies to bits.
That’s not even scratching the surface of what you can do.

I definitely had a blast playing this game with my friends. Even though we spent most of the time
shocking each other. I would recommend this game any day!

I love the just cause franchise. In fact just cause 2 is my favorite game, atleast for now. Sadly I was very disappointed in Just Cause 3, not because it is a bad game. It is actually a very good game. The problem with it is that it is extremely slow. I don't have the best gaming computer but there are people with GTX 980s that can't run it even after 3 patches! Atleast the devs are still trying to fix the game.

7/10 I am eager to play this game properly!

Pretty cool "game" to watch. Its fun watching your little blobs eat green blobs to make even more blobs. Sadly it tends to crash quite a bit losing everything that had happend in the last 5 hours. It also doesnt help that loading doesnt work at all(Atleast for me).

This is not a game/simulation for someone impatient. If you get this game expect to wait hours on hours to see something worth while but once they start growing and even working together it is all worth it.

*Update*
After the update everything was working fine. No crashes! Ohh and loading is working too.
