Gurumin 3D: A Monstrous Adventure

Interested in a physical copy of Gurumin 3D: A Monstrous Adventure, but disappointed it’s unlikely there will ever be one? Well, stop being disappointed, and check out this Prefundia page!

That’s right: Mastiff is planning to launch a crowdfunding campaign for a physical version of Gurumin 3D: A Monstrous Adventure, on Nintendo 3DS. The campaign itself isn’t live yet, but you can check out the page linked above for more details. Naturally, we will make sure to let you know when the campaign goes live, though you can always sign up to be notified!

Graceful Explosion Machine

This week, an update for Graceful Explosion Machine on Nintendo Switch was released. Here’s everything it adds/changes:

• score screen redesigned. Now gives a clearer breakdown of your score, weapon usage, additional stats, and more;
• new AI system, that pinpoints the most exciting moment of your run, and automatically takes a screenshot. That screenshot is then displayed on the score screen, wher you can fullscreen it, add it your Album, share it, and more;
• reduced loading times (the game now loads twice as fast).

Here’s some screenshots for the update:
