Upcoming Game MINDWAVE - Upcoming WarioWare-like

This was a game I backed on Kickstarter the first day it launched, but I was surprised to see that it really blew up and reached all its stretch goals. There have been a few Warioware-likes, but this one seems the most ambitious.




Some thoughts I had:
  • It's fun
  • Starting microgames seem a little faster than normal WarioWare.
  • Unique art direction that last few WarioWares kind of lack.
  • Keyboard and mouse combo helps differentiate gameplay a little from normal WarioWare. (Maybe Switch 2 will have a WarioWare that features mouse controls with the Joy-con)
  • I'm curious about how the online versus mode will work.
  • I'm excited that this game met it's stretch goal for Steam Workshop modding. It's going to be fun downloading all the fanmade microgames.

I haven't played it but from what I've seen (including a gameplay video of the demo), there's some really cool ideas that makes it stand out from WarioWare. Like the windows that pop up in the second half to throw you off. The WarioWare series is getting kind of stale so remixing a few things is very much welcome. Add a little unexpectancy, y'know ? That's somehting I've been actually trying to do with my fangame so it's cool to see other people have their takes on the matter.

Also the game seems to have a consitent artstyle and atmosphere which is always a plus. Though, I feel it's the "Unhinged Indie game" artstyle which I never was a fan of but eh...

Maybe I'll give the demo a try when I have the time. It looks pretty cool from what I've seen.
