“An open-world action-RPG starring a dog lost in a sprawling, randomly generated city. Use your canine abilities to explore this strange, sometimes hostile environment and find your place in the world.”

“You wander the streets, searching for scraps, for shelter, for a friendly face. Slowly, you overcome some of your fears. You learn where you can snag a meaty bone, where you can sleep warm and safe at night. Strange streets become familiar territory. One by one, the streets become yours. You find friends. Eventually, maybe, home.”

Brute

developed by Crudepixel

[gfycat data_id="ImmenseChubbyGopher"][gfycat data_id="LikelyHatefulFruitfly"][gfycat data_id="IdealisticChiefJunco"]

“A minimalist puzzle shooter. Inspired in part by N and other challenging skill based games. The player takes control of a ship with limited fuel which explodes on impact with walls. It’s simple to pick up and play but will take a lot of skill to complete.”

“Brute will feature 50 standard levels across 10 stages with another 50 unlockable remix levels. It will be no easy task to complete all 100 levels but if you want more then try competing in one of the 3 speed-run modes. These modes will feature global leaderboards and a friend challenge system.”

“A first person puzzle game built with Unreal Engine 4 where gravity moves and shifts as you do and which way is up depends on where you’re standing.

“Puzzles involve not just what is in front of you, but what is above and around you. Ceilings become floors requiring you to think beyond regular spaces and see the whole interconnected area.”

“A whimsical life simulation game with unique aesthetic and visuals. You control a microscopic and frail aquatic organism called a Nekton, and you follow its most amazing journey as a species.

“In each level you need to grow your Nekton to a specific size. To grow larger, you can defeat other organisms and capture the parts they leave behind. Once attached to your Nekton, these parts integrate completely – some offer more speed and agility whereas others grant you new abilities.”
