Platforms: Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 Neptunia Game Maker R:Evolution is perhaps the one and only Neptunia game, since the inception of the Neptunia series as a whole, which I actually preordered. The idea of becoming a game developer might be what initially draws someone in, but that wasn't the case here. There are elements that lead your mind into thinking about game development, and there are elements where the creation of a video game is referenced in the story, but the execution is very different. Neptunia Game Maker is not the game you might think it is. Everything is interwoven into a story that pits a single small company against a global market. Is that market over-saturated with others attempting to make new games, or is it still ripe for the picking? How deep into game development is someone willing to go before the chaos becomes too much to handle? Let’s dive in and find out! By Manuel Players: 1
