SwitchArcade Roundup: ‘No Umbrellas’, ‘Kudzu’, ‘PuzzMiX’ and More Today’s Releases and Sales
Hello, dear readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade roundup for April 5, 2024. In today’s article, we end the week with a take a look at a frankly bizarre collection of recent releases. It’s not a nasty thing, remember. However, for those who’re searching for conventional games, today probably won’t be for you. After rounding up the brand new titles, we move on to the sale to see what’s recent and what’s expiring. Perhaps attributable to the large sale that began per week ago, we do not have a complete ton to chew through today, nevertheless it’s enough. Let’s go to work!
New releases
Umbrellas prohibited ($19.99)
This game takes place in a dystopia where the population is controlled by rainfall and greed is illegitimate. You work in a department store and you could have to purchase and sell goods from incoming customers. Buy low, sell high, but watch out not to draw the eye of the authorities. Our buddy Mikhail will leave his umbrella by the door and will take a take a look at it in a review soon.
PuzzMiX ($3.99)
If you thought Inti Creates would not mind making a shameless Gunvolt-style reskin, you were tragically mistaken, my friend. At least the music is nice, right?
Super Destronaut Landed X Loaded ($4.99)
Previous games have offered versions of and , and now we now have a brand new game that seems heavily inspired Well, it is not the worst game to get ideas from. I have never gotten around to playing it yet, nevertheless it’s not a very expensive game for those who just wish to jump in.
Kitchen Crisis ($14.99)
You’d think this is able to be a mode thing. I do know my first thought was that it might be something like this. But no, that is a bit different. More of a tower defense game, for those who can consider it. You’re cooking for aliens, and your chefs can be doing it kind of on their very own. You need to arrange your kitchen by placing stations and equipment in the perfect positions to make sure smooth operation. Strangely convincing.
Kudzu ($4.99)
So far, most of this publisher’s Switch releases have been modern indie titles for the NES, but this time we now have a contemporary Game Boy game as a substitute. Kudzu is an motion adventure game a couple of maze and a brave explorer trying to search out his missing master there. Perhaps he’ll find answers to the secrets of the maze? I’ve heard good things about this game and it looks like it’s as easy a way as any to try it out.
Life of Slime ($4.99)
This… is a really strange game. It is primarily a platformer, nevertheless it also has adventure elements. You are a slime named Slami who doesn’t finish his studies at university, but as a substitute moves to town to search out a distinct path in life. Even though almost every character is a slime, there are numerous interconnected situations within the story of this game. And, you already know, some you may’t relate to. I do not know if I’d call it a game or only one, but I comprehend it’s a vibe that a few of you actually like. If so, consider ringing the dinner bell.
Greed 2: Forbidden Experiments ($15.99)
Search for hidden objects…!
Artillery Notebook ($4.99)
It’s not a very fancy dining experience, but for those who want a straightforward yet functional tackle artillery games, here you go. It supports two players in local multiplayer, or you may practice goal shooting yourself. Honestly, I’d probably just buy it on sale attributable to how rather more you get within the package, but when you desire to support indies as a substitute, I won’t think any less of you.
NibansenPlus ($4.00)
Solve the puzzles and escape…!
Bunch of Bins
Pro Scooter Simulator ($12.99)
Offroad Jeep Quest: Mountain Trails ($7.99)
Spy Hidden Objects Deluxe Edition ($8.99)
Heist ($4.99)
Devil’s Call ($4.99)
Turnover
You can get some Kairosoft sims at their lowest prices ever if that is a bucket you desire to fill. The real treat of the day though is. It has never been this low-cost before and very rarely goes on sale. I didn’t mention it, however the DLC can be on sale and it’s definitely price buying your entire package. There are some good titles in your weekend inbox too, so ensure that you check each lists fastidiously.

Here is the emperor from Star Wars holding an assault rifle in Fortnite


I wanted to share with you. The image above is a real screenshot There is Darth Sidious, i.e. the emperor, or Sheev Palpatine from holding the assault rifle. I thought you would want to see it, so I share with you.
I really don’t have any more to add. I think I should give some context. On Friday he started the latest season in the game. As may indicate the above image of Palpatin with a assault rifle, The new season is –. And our old friend, the emperor, was added to the constantly developing list of characters. This means that the emperor can land and kill Goku with a shotgun. We live in a strange world, huh?
To unlock Emperor Palpatine, you must reach the seventh new battle pass. He is the last great reward. You can also unlock its lego version. This one cannot hold the gun, but he can hold swords, blasters and bows. This is cool. You can also unlock the red version of the emperor as you can see . I prefer his old black robes, but from each of them.
It seems to me that when I actually have you here, I should mention that each one characters which are added may also accommodate assault rifles. There are rumors that the C-3PO could also be added to the game soon. If so, he may even give you the option to load and shoot with pistols. It’s wild.
If this happens, I will try to remember to update this blog and provide their image. Until then, enjoy this image of the emperor from holding the assault rifle.

Polygon sold to Valt and hit with mass layoffs (update)

She learned that the video game website was sold to Click-Farm Powerhouse, and a big a part of her Masthead was released. Sales were later Announced in a press release. Many employees have published online concerning the loss of labor or that colleagues are out of labor.
“I am no longer with. If you employ, consider many talented writers and editors on the market”, ” Sent co -founder and EIC Chris Plante. “Each of them deserves a spot in your staff. I won’t discuss selling more because I used to be not involved. I intend to spend time with my child. Win where I can.”
The sale was confirmed in a press release, which didn’t mention the discharge. The price of the contract has not been disclosed. Sources say that the deputy editor Maddy Myers and the Games editor Zoë Hannah belong to those that remain in Polygon. Editor -in -chief Chelsea Stark He said the releases including over 20 employees. Vox Media didn’t answer immediately on the request for comment.
“I’ll say more later, but I haven’t got a job anymore” Common older reporter Nicole Carpenter. “I’m on the lookout for a job, like lots of my amazing colleagues. I actually have many ideas and things that I would love to write. I’m really shocked.” “I had a terrific time at work” Senior author Michael McWherttor. “Let me know if you’ve any cool job offers!”
Established in 2012 in VOX Media, the site quickly became one of the most important points of sale of original reviews, reports and cultural analysis in the world of games. The coverage of video games, movies, television, comics and board games is one of the best, while its sensitivity to the future of design has helped to raise the way of presentation and online stories.
Valtt is based in Montreal and works and other mass aggregators. The company is run by Hassan Youssefa, which started its digital media with porn websites. “Adding a polygon not only strengthens our editorial muscles, but in addition strengthens our ability to provide unparalleled value to each recipients and advertisers,” said Youssef in a press release.
In the report at the start of this 12 monthsMany former colleagues accused the present media resources of Valet of being a exploiting content of content. “There is basically bad work in journalism. And then there’s a spot like Valt,” said a former colleague. “(This) considered one of the worst places I actually have ever worked and might be considered one of the worst publications of journalism I’ve ever seen.”
Valt replied to the investigation through the position Because defamation claims that reporting was filled with mistakes and caused the founding father of the corporate “Huge emotional stress, influencing (amongst others) his mood, temperament and sleep ability”.
Wox Media Union blew up sales and exemptions that took place when it is marked in the next contract. “Probably much more demoralizing is the choice of VOX Media to sell a praised game site to an organization known from alleged conditions of exploitation and devaluation of rigorous journalism for the raising of content”, IT, IT wrote in a press release. “Lack of respect VOX Media for the fame of Polygon within the media of games, labor and passion of staff and a solid community of players and fans who support him couldn’t be more clear.”
The: “Losing to such an organization just isn’t only a loss for Vox Media, but for our industry and online culture as a complete. From a sustainable development perspective, there is no such thing as a financial or long -term sense and says concerning the lack of care and consideration for this company and its staff.”
Update 5/1/2025 17:06 ET: VOX SVP Chris Grant, which he founded, shared insight into the contract and the frustration is visible on BlueSky. “14 years ago I threw what is going to occur to a startup polygon called Sports Blogs Inclas on the undeading third floor of the DC tenement house,” he wrote. “I kept my laptop on my lap and went through the deck. Today the identical company – now called Vox Media – Sold Polygon to Valet.”
He continued: “Their press message proudly calls Polygon” Publication of Premium games “, but Valet literally refused to meet me or answer one query during this process. They were extremely optional as to how the publication of games even becomes “premium”. Really (!) I hope that the remaining POLYGON team has a likelihood to proceed working, which everyone was so cared about!
“My most honest thanks to the whole team, I’m so sorry, everything ended.”
