Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for May 14th, 2020. It’s a Thursday, and that means we have a whole lot of new releases to check out. From the hot action of Ion Fury to the exquisite flavors of Cooking Simulator, there are plenty of interesting new games available. We’ve got summaries of all of them, along with the usual lists of new and outgoing sales. Let’s get to it!
New Releases
Ion Fury ($24.99)

SwitchArcade Highlight!
The Build engine. When I think back, it was one of the first times I was conscious of a game engine’s name. It’s also the first time I ever actually messed around with building my own levels outside of the modes included in certain games. I have a lot of fondness for the engine behind games like Duke Nukem 3D, Blood, and others. I certainly did not expect a 2019 game to use the engine, let alone one published by 3D Realms. Ion Fury is Build engine as heck. Not truly 3D, but 3D enough to have expansive environments to explore. Cheeky, cheesy humor and one-liners. Cool secrets. Interesting weapons. If you liked Duke 3D, go ahead and grab Ion Fury. You won’t regret it. If you need more details, I’m working on a review that should be ready early next week. Wolflame ($6.99)

SwitchArcade Highlight!
Wow, that title is pretty harsh. I think wolves are pretty cool, actually. Anyway, Wolf Lame is anything but lame. This is a rather excellent homage to pre-bullet hell shoot-em-ups like Raide...
