024: Happy to Have it Back in My Life

Welcome back to Pursuing Pixels.  We're bent on utter destruction with a bunch of combat-heavy games to talk about this week.  John is on the crew full-time, but we're still missing Randall for this one.  Kevin gets things started with a new release of an early indie classic from Vlambeer, Super Crate Box.  DJ finally gets around to trying his hand at 20XX—he beats it on hard mode and unlocks new characters that we didn't even know existed, to no one's surprise at all.  John straps into his mech and turns his brain off (is that safe?) with the slightly under the radar, Nintendo-published Daemon X Machina.  DJ takes us down to the gruesomely pixelated depths of the underworld with Slain: Back From Hell.  We hang out a little while longer in the netherworld as John & DJ get into DOOM (2016) in anticipation of the upcoming (and slightly delayed) DOOM Eternal.
