So yeah, since I only heard about this great-looking puzzle game a couple of weeks ago, so I’m sticking all of the A Virus Named TOM BETA Update Videos in one post for you to enjoy. Misfits Attic has just released the last one in the series, and the game is set to be released for digital download on August 1. Unfortunately the game is only for PC, but it looks polished and I wouldn’t be surprised if it did eventually come to XBLA or PSN, but that’s just...
From the creators of The Adventures of Shuggy (review here), Smudged Cat Games brings us a quite unique game called Gateways for the PC. Gateways is a 2D platform game about a lab scientist named Ed, who is trying to escape his very own lab after an outbreak of his experiments. You are in control of Ed and your mission is to navigate him through his lab solving puzzles and ultimately helping him escape. If you have yet to play any of the Smudge Cat games, you should know...
3AM Games (an offshoot of Frogware, best known for their Sherlock Holmes adventure games) and Gamesplanet Lab (a new crowdfunding and digital distribution platform) have teamed up to bring us a Magrunner – Dark Pulse. My first peek at the videos and screenshots reminds me of both Portal (Valve cult hit gone viral) and Running Man (an 80’s Arnold Schwarzenegger movie.) The game starts off with the protagonist, named Yoshi, and his robotic dog Newton in the...
Adventures of Shuggy is a puzzle/platformer with the heart of a casual game.
Science like you've never seen before!
The game left me with Pants-Magik envy.
Smudged Cat’s little 8-bit style puzzle platformer asks the question that few people dare: “What if portals had different properties?” Inspired by the Valve hit, Portal, Gateways plops an ingenious scientist in the midst of his own perilous lab. Taking yet more inspiration from Metroid and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, the world is large and complex. Full of secrets and complexity, Gateways is a must have if you’re into old-school games. Even if...
The Walking Dead Episode 1 is a perfect example of a mature Adventure Game done right in this generation.
With the release of the Vita Sony has made it a point to release every game digitally along side the retail release. Getting to this point was not an easy road though. There was a time, during the PSP, that games would release several months after their retail release. In fact some of those game just never made it to the Playstation Store at all. While you may not be remiss about a few annual sports title being left off the store there are a few titles that I feel are total...
Do Fluros dream of liquid sheep? That is the unanswerable question posed in Strange Loop Games’ new title, Vessel. Combining a run-n-gun/puzzle-platformer game style with an engine built to model particle liquid effects, this game has you working out how to activate the various buttons and levers required to fix each or the 8 broken machines in this Bioshock-esque universe. You begin the game with a cutscene, stills and text pieced together in true indie game-fashion...
