Anuchard is out now and it's a lovely action RPG that pays tribute to 90s Enix JRPGs like the Quintet Trilogy and even PlayStation 1 era titles like Alundra. The game's combat and puzzles can be a mite tricky, so here are some video walkthroughs on how to tackle each dungeon. There are spoilers in the video, so here's your warning. Some com...
Grammarian Ltd is a game that could humble most people who thought they had a perfect grasp on grammar. Although its premise is really bizarre and specific, seriously niche doesn’t even cut it for this game, it does a pretty respectable job at educating despite the boring gameplay loop. Grammarian Ltd is set in a fictional world where the gram...
Metronomik, the folks behind the acclaimed 2020 action music game No Straight Roads, has announced its new upcoming title named after Malaysia's famous klepon snack: Ondeh Ondeh. Ondeh Ondeh is billed as a fantastical audio-centric game. Based on the trailer, it's looking like a 3D action-adventure title with most likely some platforming, pu...
Netflix's Kate is an action movie about an assassin with 24 hours to live, and also deals with the Tokyo criminal underworld. Sounds like fodder for a video game adaptation, right? That's what we're getting with Kate: Collateral Damage. The upcoming title is from Ludic Studios, a small dev team known for its indie title Akane. It's an isometric ...
Indonesian-based developer Ozysoft, the makers of Pulang Insanity for PC, is going to make a new 3D action-adventure game based on traditional Bornean folktales. It's called Project Buramato (working title, FYI), and it's a high fantasy setting game with fast-paced third-person action, minimalistic storytelling focused on atmosphere, and a semi-...
Annapurna Interactive revealed yet another interesting story-based game during its early morning indie showcase: a title called Storyteller. Created by Daniel Benmergui, Storyteller is a puzzle game where you're given a set number of storyboard panels and a bunch of icons and elements (characters, themes, thoughts) to create a story. You can tel...
Are companies like Sony PlayStation really nickel and diming indie developers and small-time folks for all of their worth just for visibility? According to one such third-party publisher, they are. A Twitter thread by Neon Doctrine's Iain Garner talks about the frustration of publishing games on a major games console, specifically one that doesn...
As far as demo tapes go, the music rhythm indie game Unbeatable's got potential. I sure as heck want to find out how the full album/game sounds like. Unbeatable sports a Studio Trigger-esque anime art style that's energetic, accompanied with a rocking soundtrack from sample-heavy hip hop to pop rock you find at both an OP and ED of a shonen you ...
Platform: PC Genre: Outspoken adventure game for your extended lunch break If you were to rate the indie title Say No! More just on its length alone, it gets a failing grade. The adventure game will take you at least two hours or so to beat in one playthrough. Despite its length, Say No! More wears its "one word, many languages" linguistic arca...
Platform: PC Genre: Auto-RPG Simulation It's hard to pin down Devolver Digital and Four Quarter's Loop Hero with a genre label. It's actually an amalgamation of a lot of things: a computer RPG with an 80s art style, a digital card game, a simulation, a strategy game, a roguelike. What I can tell you is that all this combined makes for an awe...
This guide will be periodically updated. Loop Hero is out on PC, so if you fancy a hybrid auto-battler RPG type experience presented as an 80s title, this game will sort you out! You select your unlocked character classes, create a deck that lets you lay out tiles to power up your hero and create obstacles for him to get stronger with, and keep ...
Platform(s): PC Genre: Rhythm Game At first, Rhythm Doctor may sound overly simplistic. A one-button rhythm game? Wouldn't that be too easy? I'm here to tell you that it's definitely not, and this game from Malaysian developer 7th Beat Games is certainly one of the most unique rhythm games I've ever played in my life. Tap & Slam In Rh...
We've had our fair share of Southeast Asian-made horror games these past few years, with Dreadout, Fires At Midnight, and Short Creepy Tales: 7pm being the ones that stand out. We might be getting another one in 2021 with Dying Flame. Made by Malaysian indie studio Roundtable Games Studio, this narrative-driven 2D horror game is made in RPG ...
I'm only a couple more hours in before I can get lovebirds-on-a-lam Kay and Yu out of the jam they're stuck in before the eventual end. But you see, everything alien about developer The Game Bakers' latest survival adventure sci-fi indie, Haven, makes me just want to, I don't know, just mellow out. Yes, this IS from the same devs who made Furi, ...
Remember when we said that Xbox Game Pass will be getting its last few Gold titles for the year? They'll be sweetening that already-lucrative pot with even more free games for the month. How does Remedy's latest sound? That's right: Control will be available to play on Xbox Game Pass on Xbox consoles and PC this early December. We labelled Contr...
Indie prison-building simulation Prison Architect is turning 5 this year. To celebrate, developer Introversion Software is making the game free to download and play from now until 11th October on Steam. That's basically 5 days until it goes back to being a paid title. Its publisher Paradox Interactive also shared some interesting tidbits about Pri...
One of this year's most-anticipated indie-developed action titles No Straight Roads is getting delayed, much to the disappointment of many here in sunny ol' Malaysia. The Metronomik-developed title, previously scheduled for 30th June, will only be available "later in the summer" for PC (via Epic Games), PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. The main...
If my chat about Chrono Trigger on The Last King podcast is of any indication, is that the world is due for an indie spiritual successor of the 90s classic. And not from Tokyo RPG Factory, please. Sabotage Studio, the folks who made the hit 2D 8/16-bit Ninja Gaiden-esque platformer The Messenger will be creating an ode to past JRPGs of yore called...
