Title
As many of you avid gamers have noted, 2015 was a great year for platformers. Axiom Verge stands equally among those I’ve already mentioned, yet is nothing like them. Think Contra meets Metroid, and you’ve got a rough picture of what Axiom Verge offers. But, it’s in those fine details where we see some true gold. Now, we all know those original games that inspired Axiom were full of glitches, some of which let players exploit the game. Axiom Verge takes these historical coding cracks and makes them a game mechanic. I kid you not, glitches become an ever-lovin’ game mechanic. You can use these corruptions to manipulate enemies as well as the environment, making for a true gaming experience in which you are encouraged to, well, play! Axiom Verge may not have been my favourite platformer of 2015, but it is fantastic and surely deserves more players to explore its depths.

    Finished this once, remembered it being good, sat down to play it again and couldn't make it past 2 hours. What the hell is up with this game?
