This is a twin-stick shooter, combined with a monster capture game and a roguelike with tons of exploration and collecting. Patch Quest is developed by Lychee Game Labs and published by Curve Games, it has taken the last seven years to perfect and after being in early release, it is now finally ready to be released on the 2nd of March 2023.
Patch Quest has a whimsical hand-drawn look that is super cute and full of personality. As soon as the game starts you get to customise the appearance of your explorer by selecting their skin colour, if you want to play as a male or female, their hairstyle with a variety of shorter and longer styles, the hair colour, eye shape, and their nose and mouth shapes. This reminded me of creating my Mii character on the Nintendo Wii years ago.
Once your character is created you select the type of controller that you are using. This way Patch Quest adapts all the game commands to the correct buttons for your input device. Every time you start playing, the game will ask you just in case you end up using something different. While exploring, the buttons for attacks that the creature you are riding can do are shown on the right-hand side of the screen for quick reference in case you can’t remember which button is for which move.
