I mentioned Bye Sweet Carole in passing in my coverage of Guerilla Collective’s Not-E3 showcase this year, but otherwise I actually haven’t written about it at all. And that’s a shame, because it looks extremely promising. It’s a classically-animated horror game about a young girl unwillingly brought to the mysterious…

Announced last December, Born of Bread is a tasty adventure RPG that’s a throwback to classic cartoony games with fun characters and charming stories for both adults and children.
