I've been playing Absolum, from @dotemu.bsky.social, and loving it!

I took a break to create this illustration of my favourite character, Cider.

Absolum combines classic fantasy brawler mechanics, top-notch art and music, and a roguelite progression loop. The result is an incredibly fun cooperative adventure. Read our full review. gameinformer.com/review/absol...

The best thing I can say about Absolum from Guard Crush Games and @dotemu.bsky.social is that it's a game that everyone needs to play.

Absolum Review—A Must-Play Roguelite

Absolum is a game that doesn't reinvent the wheel because it doesn't need to. It's a fantastic beat 'em up that reminds you why you love games

I plan to cover this in some from on Second Wind, but I can say outright I fucking love this game.

The art, the music (Gareth Coker, Mick Gordon, Yuka Kitamura, and Motoi Sakuraba), and the gameplay are all absolutely top notch.

Do not skip this one.

I've probably played like 10 hours of Absolum: this game fuckin rips - I don't even like beat-em-ups and this is undeniably some of the most fun I've had playing a video game this year. There's stuff in this trailer I haven't even seen yet!!!
