Hyperyuki could be good if it runs well on the Deck. They're going to need to avoid the stutter that's plagued so many recent games if they want it to feel good.

I could see any of these turning out great: just depends on the execution. I'm mostly curious about Tossdown, it has some of those bullet hell survivor vibes but with the twist of 3D and delivery objectives.

The Prisoning is developed by Elden Pixels of Alwa's Awakening fame. I did some playtesting of the game long before it got picked up by Acclaim, it's... okay
