“A moody, beautifully narrated action/adventure game, with handcrafted 2D pixel animations and a mysterious world to explore. You play as a girl whose home is going to be destroyed by the gods. She embarks on an adventure, exploring mysterious islands scattered across the sea. Each island houses one of her “birthrights”; ancient artifacts that will help her continue her quest deeper into this strange world.

“As the adventure unfolds and the girl approaches her destination – the Last Shore, home of the gods – she learns more about her world, her family, and herself. Can she prevail when everything she knows is turned upside down?”

Redout

developed by 34BigThings

[gfycat data_id="FlawlessReliableAracari"][gfycat data_id="AntiqueCalmApatosaur"][gfycat data_id="BaggyPoliticalBunny"]

A futuristic arcade racing game with a low-poly art style; in development for PS4, Xbox One, and Windows.   It reminds me a lot of Wipeout (which I love!  and miss); though the ships gain experience through racing and can be upgraded.  There’s no online multiplayer, but you can race against AI or up to 4 players locally.

A time and score attack parkour FPS.  Still in very early development for PC.  No website up yet but you can follow the progress on the dev’s twitter.

Sorry for the fuzziness of the gifs. :(  The game updates and improves quite regularly so I’ll definitely post about it again, and I’ll make sure the gifs are crisp and sharp then.

“A cheerful sandbox game that will first captivate you by its beautiful polygony graphics. You can create a highly modifiable yland of your choice and place it anywhere in the world – it will fully reflect the resources, weather and wildlife of given location. You also have full control over your game experience: choose to play alone or with friends; try to live a life on your yland with only a handful of basic survival items or choose to have them all – it’s up to you.”

You can currently purchase an early access version for PC from the Bohemia Interactive store.

Only through teamwork can you triumph over the evil forces of Anti-Love, rescue kidnapped space-bunnies, and avoid a vacuumy demise. Deep space is a dangerous place, but you don’t have to face it alone!
