  1. South of Midnight (Compulsion Games, studio pas encore tué par Microsoft), sorti plus tôt dans l’année sur PC et s.i., aura droit à son portage Switch au printemps 2026.

    Pas encore de détails, mais le jeu étant assez unique dans son style, c’est cool !

  2. And I'm not kidding about legacy gaming media — it looks like they just hate #CompulsionGames. I hope that #Microsoft also considers #Steam ratings. Over 4,000 reviews is a pretty good number for a small game.

  3. I finished #SouthOfMidnight, which had a pretty interesting story, original music, and a very authentic atmosphere. It's not a big surprise for me as I like #Contrast, so I knew what to expect from #CompulsionGames but It is clear that legacy gaming media are out of touch with reality.

  4. If you haven't played this yet, give it a go. I'm really enjoying the mix of story / combat (I play it on super-easy)

  5. Writing and graphics can take you high yet not enough in videogames.

    #SouthOfMidnight seems like that. An ambitious story under a captivating environment, but with dollar-store gameplay that makes fun a chore.

    A perfect example for a 7/10 game. It's fine, but could have been better.

  6. Nothing excites me more in gaming than deep, detailed, lovingly crafted world-building, and Compulsion Games' South of Midnight looks to be absolutely dripping with it. The kind of rich, lose-yourself narrative, the same feeling you get from a truly beloved novel or movie.

    It is increasingly clear that the dev team behind this game cares so, so much about getting it right. This is utterly fantastic.

  7. «If your game is going to be story-first, then ensure its a fucking god damn good story»

    That thing is going to be true to any game, like #SouthOfMidnight. If the gameplay is mid, and story doesn't break through, you will have a very mediocre game.

    From all previews I've seen, this game is going to be a perfect 60%.

  8. Great interview from Rolling Stone with the developers from "South of Midnight". Was a bit worried about the game considering there was not a lot of new info since their initial announcement but it seems like things are going well so far. Looking forward to playing it!

  9. Just finished #Contrast . Recommended!

    A stylish, compelling drama with an engaging gameplay hook and an interesting setting, but frustrating, slippery controls mar the experience.

    This looks like a real stunner from #CompulsionGames (We Happy Few). Gorgeous visual design and real care and attention to the subject matter (Southern Gothic, magical realism). Take the time to read the article, and be sure to watch the trailer.
