From Madness with Love – Hunky-Dory Lovey-Dovey DLC hits May 29
First up for the PLAYISM Week announcements. Ever wanted to date a guy who curses you out, or one who may or may not be a vampire? From Madness with Love is back with a twisted twist—its first major DLC, Hunky-Dory Lovey-Dovey, arriving May 29, 2025.
This delightfully deranged visual novel from developer jamsanpoid throws players into body-swapping chaos when all four romanceable boys fall down a staircase and wake up in the wrong skins. It’s not a bug—it’s a plot point. The DLC also introduces a vampire-themed route, where you or your love interest suddenly thirst for blood and emotional trauma.
Alongside these madcap stories, the DLC includes new endings for each route—perfect for shy players who couldn’t quite seal the deal in the original game. Expect the same quirky charm, sharp pixel art, and deeply cursed dialogue that made the base game so uniquely hilarious.
Available for just $3.99 or bundled with the main game at a discount, this is one bite-sized expansion you won’t want to miss.
Nitro Express – 2D gun-slinging chaos lands on Steam
If romantic confusion isn’t your thing, how about high-calibre chaos?
Our second PLAYISM Week announcement just launched on May 19, Nitro Express by Grayfax Software throws you into the neon-lit streets of a reimagined Tokyo as a member of the Atypical Vehicle Disposal Squad. Your mission? Take down rogue autonomous drones, hulking tanks, and even helicopter bosses in side-scrolling shootouts that demand both strategy and a healthy trigger finger.
Armed to the teeth with 12 wild gadgets—from turrets and flamethrowers to anti-tank missiles—this game is as much about creative destruction as it is reflexes. With optional radio-based storytelling, tons of unlockable gear, and tactical mechanics that reward careful positioning, Nitro Express is built for players who love tight action with a side of satire.
It’s on sale with 10% off for launch, so it’s a perfect time to dive in and let the bullets fly.
Whether you’re looking to woo an occult-obsessed schoolboy or unload an EMP on a killer vending machine, PLAYISM’s latest releases bring a little something for every flavour of chaos.
