Say, pal, could you introduce me to your good-looking friend there?
I started playing Invisible Inc. the other day, so I'll probably give that another whirl this weekend. I like it okay so far, but I'm not that excited about it. I like the art style and the premise, but navigating the procedurally generated levels is a chore. It's hard to feel like a dashing secret agent when you're…
