The Australian game development scene is putting out some incredible stuff and congratulations to Mixtape. It's not easy to stand out from such a strong lineup of competitors.

Ralph, you (rightly) trashed Wolverine for excessive hand holding and no fail states. Do you feel the same way about Mixtape?

As someone who dislikes both, I don’t think a $20AUD game should be compared to a $129AUD game from very different genres.

Yeah I’d probably give Wolverine a spin for $49
