Secret Ponchos (2014, PS4) - A Bone to Pick


Over the last few years, Sony's done a really good job promoting offbeat indie games for their consoles. From Octodad: Dadliest Catch to Guacamelee, they've helped spotlight fresh content from small developers, some good, some bad. One of the latest examples is Secret Ponchos, the debut title from developer Switchblade Monkeys, one of the free PS+ games for December. It's also currently available in Steam's Early Access program. A competitive twin stick shooter with a cartoony old west  aesthetic, Secret Ponchos brings a lot of style, but sadly little substance.
