Harry Bowers writes: "DrinkBox will be the first to admit that touch games have a bad name. If your first thought is Fruit Ninja, stop. DrinkBox have always stood for much more than simple gimmicks. Their pedigree is such that I can say with certainty that Severed will be of a calibre we don’t often see. Choosing to dedicate nigh on two years to developing a Vita exclusive touch game in 2015 is, at the very least, testament to the fact that DrinkBox are doing what they have always done. No one asked for a Luchadores-inspired open world platformer in 2013, but everyone made damn sure to thank DrinkBox for it whilst they sat proudly atop the number one PSN sales spot for consecutive months."
"I wanted to get to the bottom of DrinkBox’s latest offering. In truth: I wanted everyone to be as excited for Severed as I am. With that, I sat down with designer Chris McQuinn to better understand why Severed belongs in this year’s gaming calendar."
The PS4 has a killer roster of incredible platformers. Ranging from simple 2D platformers to vibrant 3D platforming games.
No mention of Astrobot on the VR, one of the best platform titles Sony have put out
Guacamelee is an amazing Metroidvania series with a fun story and beautiful graphics. Check out Jason's Nindie Spotlight on this gem that highlights its unique art style and fantastic boss fights..

Hollow Knight is really good. GreenPath was my favorite area of the game.
Guacamelee 1 was also good. I got to check out G2.
In my opinion Guacamelle 2 is even better than first..hopefully we will get third game
I highly recommend TimeSpinner. It's on everything now but I played and platinum'd it on PS4. Excellent classic style MV with a cool 'time' element and hidden secrets, bosses, multiple ending/outcomes, etc. 9/10 from me.
