  • FREE GAME: DoomBlade [EPIC]

    From Spalls Hurgenson@3:633/10 to All on Thursday, April 23, 2026 12:04:52

    I almost forgot today was a Thursday. It /is/ a Thursday, right?
    Yesterday was Wednesday, and Thursdays usually follow that but...
    well, I'd better double-check to be sure. Yup, definitely a Thursday.
    Time to post about a freebie on Epic then!

    https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/doomblade-afdf9a
    A bullet-hell-esque shooter/platformer with Metroidvania
    leanings. I can't really say this sort of game is the sort
    of thing I enjoy, but it looks fairly well made, and the
    visuals don't make my eyes bleed. The reviews are largely
    favorable too. This game will probably end up as Number-
    fodder, but I'm not unhappy to have it in my library. It
    looks interesting, if not to my taste.


    You've got the usual seven days to claim this one. Then I'll be back
    next week to tell you about the next freebie. Unless I forget what day
    it is again. But what are the odds of that happening? ;-)

    As my new induction to the Anti-Number, this doesn't look good enough to
    sin by cluttering my virtual space. But thanks for posting :)
