Review by Matt S. Miku’s back, baby, and she is oh-so-impossibly cute. Everyone who knows anything about me knows that I was always going to love Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X. That wasn’t ever going to be up for debate. And of course, I do love the game. I so…
Read MoreDeveloped by Seaven Studio as part of the Ludum Dare gamejam festival, Inside My Radio is a rhythm platform starring anthropomorphic squares who must run, jump, dash and slam to the beat in order to complete a series of mostly linear levels.
