Footage from E3

Usually when you hear about a cool looking indie joint it’s at least five years away. AT LEAST! And maybe it just hit its Kickstarter goal.

Not so forThe Messenger, which was announced in January of this year and is still set for a 2018 window on PC and Switch. It looks a hell of a lot like theNinja GaidenNES series, which is a-ok with me, but it also includes a mechanic that swaps from 8 to 16-bit — which is even more okay. Oh and at that point it changes from a platformer into a Metroidvania. I need it!
