I've gushed here before about the excellent retro-modern arcade game Utopia Must Fall which lights up the part of my brain that enjoys a game of Missile Command, and feels like the future of gaming someone was thinking of 50 years ago. Last month they released a big update to the game, and it makes a great game even greater. New enemies, progression, music. What was the end-game in the older version feels like the mid-game now, based on what's shown off in the trailer. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2849680/view/672870947178414534 I particularly like the lore of the new weapons: * Garbage Blunderbuss: fires fridge-size projectiles of your city's compressed garbage * Telegraph Basilisk: all telephone poles in your city have been decommissioned so that you can fire bundles of them at the invaders

    There's now also an unlock system where your performance in each game determines how many Limited Opportunities you unlock, and those become available as rare contracts you might roll in the after-round upgrade (and which are generally more lucrative)
