The 12 Days of Gamesmas — Day 2

And Fighting in River City!

My Former Loves

Genre: skateboarding RPG cook-em-up action

In addition to testing our patience and self-control to the very limit, the holidays are also a time of romance. Those chilly nights and beautiful dark aegean blue skies can spur some to make new connections, while others ponder empty-feeling beds. Some may even be breathing the fresh air of freedom after a time much too long trapped! Regardless of your connotations to the concept, you may find some common ground with our second game: Thirsty Suitors!

In this lovingly weird mix of skateboarding, battle, romance, and self-discovery, you take on the role of Jala as she attempts to balance her demanding parents, multiple exes, and new suitors, all in time to make things right before her sister's wedding. While the visuals of the game are over the top, the messages and themes it delves into are a bit too close to what most of us have to deal with on the holidays. But hey, maybe playing through Jala’s tale will help you come to terms with your own? It has a pretty sweet cooking minigame, too!
