Prepare yourself for a mixtape of lurid brilliance.
Sludge Life 2 is a second verse that feels much the same as the first, but it's still got a bouncy, vivacious, and utterly unique sound.

It had two positive aspects, though: it was indeed unique (for better or for worse), and it was free. Or at least it was free at first, due to a deal between Devolver Digital and the Epic Games Store. Sludge Life 2, a sequel I can safely assume nobody has ever asked for, doesn’t have these things going for it. It’s not ...
