Tangledeep has been available on Nintendo Switch for a couple months now and developer Impact Gameworks has been hard at work making the turn based RPG game the best version of itself yet.
Tangledeep is a role playing game with similar mechanics you would come to expect from a mainline Pokemon game. However in this dungeon crawler players will have to visit underground villages in order to combat the ever-changing labyrinth of puzzles and enemies.
Tangledeep also features 12 unique jobs with over 100 different skills, similar to the job and skill system known from Fantasy Life Games.
The game is a classic take on the much beloved 16 bit old school RPG games and has gained a lot of attention since its Nintendo Switch release earlier this year. If what you are hearing sounds interesting, check out the gameplay trailer and patch notes for Tangledeep below.

City builders are the go-to genre if you want to relax and lose yourself for hours. There’s something the MyPotatoGames fam loves about being able to build a town or world and watch it flourish. Add in some gorgeous graphics, and the ability to colonize space…Before We Leave, in development by Balancing Monkey Games, definitely has our attention.
About Before We Leave:
Your people emerge from underground to a world they’ve forgotten about. You have to rebuild civilization, which includes an assortment of fun tasks. There are resources to manage, huts to build, and potatoes to harvest. Once you’ve expanded your world, you can expand across the universe.
By expanding through space, you’ll create a multi-planet system of colonies to care for. The needs of your civilization aren’t going to be your only concern. There’s a reason your people were forced underground – disasters. These disasters left their mark on your planets and with improper management, they can once more cause issues.
On top of that, there are ancient guardians – remnants of your ancestors – that will challenge cities and demand attention. Oh, and the space whales. Yup, there are giant planet-munching space whales floating about.
Watch the announcement trailer:
There’s no set release date yet but the game will be coming to PC. You can wishlist it now on Steam. You can also follow development updates on Twitter and the dev blog.
We love talking about city-builders of all shapes and sizes! For the city-builders with a love for animals, make sure you’re up-to-date with Planet Zoo. Love to micromanage? Two Point Hospital is coming to consoles!

Re:Legend will be available for early access in the Steam store starting on August 30th, 2019.
For those of you out there who are like us and just can’t wait to get your hands on Re:Legend, we have excellent news. Developed by Magnus Games Studio, Re:Legend is an online co-op adventure game that features all the goodies we’ve come to love so much at myPotatoGames (i.e. farming, crafting, creature collection). This amazing title is going to be available to try out very soon, and we’ve got everything you need to know about being a part of the early access trial.
About Re:Legend Early Access
Magnus Games Studio has decided to partake in early access on Steam so that they may further develop their title based on feedback. Allowing for early access gives many more gamers a chance to try out the title before it is finished, without having had to back the title on Kickstarter. Magnus intends to keep the game in early access for 9-12 months, giving them ample time to test many of the games nooks and crannies.
The early access version will be a smaller and unpolished version of the finished project. It will include enough features to give the developers an idea as to what needs to change before the full game is released. The final version will include much more content and appear more graphically polished. If you add Re:Legend to your Steam wishlist now, you will get a notification when the game is ready!

It goes without saying that the MyPotatoGames fam loves animals. I’ll say it anyway, though: we love animals! The latest animal game on our radar is Doggone – an in-development game where you adventure as a lost dog. Raconteur Games is the developer and publisher working on this new doggy adventure.
About Doggone:
Racounteur Games focuses on storytelling in their games. Doggone is based on the classic animal story that we’ve seen in so many movies and books – but never before in a video game. Doggone is touted as an emotional rollercoaster. Don’t worry though! They promise a happy ending.
In this puzzle-platformer, you play as a lost English Foxhound trying to find their way home. The game features, what the developers refer to as, “dog things.” These things include smell-o-vision to guide you and the ability to sniff out pathways and hidden items. You can also bark and roll around!
The game is 2.5D. The graphics are colorful and full of whimsy – inspired by the work of Eyvind Earle, a background artist on the animated Sleeping Beauty.
The game will be episodic with a planned release of Episode I in March 2020. Episode II will follow in Summer 2020 followed by Episode III, the final part, in Fall 2020. It will be released on PC.
You can support the game through Kickstarter which also has a playable demo. The Kickstarter runs until August 15th and will fund Episode I. You can also follow Raconteur Games on Twitter or join the Doggone Discord for updates.
Love dogs? Of course you do! Here are some of our favorite games featuring doggos and puppers: The Good Life, To The Rescue, and Pupperazzi.

Temtem is about seeking adventure in the lovely Airborne Archipelago alongside your Temtem squad. Catch every Temtem and battle tamers around the world. This MMO is created by Crema and has just released its Alpha 0.2.5 with quite the large updates which you can read in more detail from Crema here. You can also check out all the other updates with us right here if you missed them last time. The game is estimated to release sometime in 2020 on PC (Steam), Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PS4. Below you can read the highlights on the newly added Breeding system and more!
Breeding
If two Temtem are compatible, putting them together in the Breeding Center will create a new Egg. Eggs will eventually hatch into a new Temtem and they will be able to inherit some characteristics from their parents. The two parents will need to be one female and one male and of the same type (i.e. Fire, Electric). If a Temtem has two types, it will be compatible with other species from any of those two types.
Temtem Fertility
Breeding Temtem in captivity will generate stress for the participants during the process. This stress is reflected in the fertility value of each Temtem. The fertility value is used to avoid over-exploitation of perfectly bred Temtem. Each captured Temtem will begin with a fertility value predetermined by how good they are (genetically speaking – each SV over 40 will reduce the fertility).
Each time a Temtem is used to breed an egg, they will permanently lose a fertility point. Additionally, the produced egg will inherit the fertility value from their parents (the lower value between the father fertility and the mother fertility). This way, fertility degradation will be pyramidal.
Getting and Hatching Eggs
At the Breeding Center, a new egg will be generated in 40 (real-time) minutes after the couple is deposited. If both deposited Temtem are part of the same evolutionary line, the time will be reduced to 25 minutes. When the time is up, you will be able to get back the couple of Temtem and the generated egg. The egg will hold a level 1 Temtem and the species will be the first form of the mother’s evolutionary line.
The time required to hatch an egg can range between 5 to 40 minutes, depending on the capture rate of that Temtem species. Time will only pass as long as the Temtem is equipped in your Squad but you don’t need to move around in order for the egg to hatch.
To read more about the breeding process in Temtem and how to inherit traits, can do the Kickstarter update here.
FreeTem! Initiative
The FreeTem! Initiative is our first approach to having methods of earning infinite Pansuns and to keep all players entertained after the campaign is over. Take into consideration that this is just one of the methods that will be available in the final game.
The idea is to promote that all Temtem should be free and sent back to the wild. Therefore, you will be rewarded for every Temtem released. Furthermore, each week there will be an additional special reward upon reaching a certain number of freed Temtem. The rewards will be different every week so players are encouraged to check them frequently to not miss anything.
Emotes & Quest Tracker
Temtem is filled with sidequests and sometimes even the main quest can be a bit daunting due to all the different areas of the Archipelago. This is why there’s now a Quest Tracker!
It will show the most recent quests with instructions on how to proceed. In the future, the Quest Tracker will be expanded with a full quest log which will allow you to check every single quest. The last highlighted feature is the emotes! Emotes will allow players to express themselves much better! Currently there’s four emotes available with new ones to come in the future.
