Platform: PC Genre: Metroidvania action-adventure with a tinge of Dark Souls Just when you thought games couldn't get any more creative and weird at the same time, along comes an oddity like Grime. The game starts with you literally being born into an alien world where everything is a mesh between stones, rocks, neurons, flesh, and everythin...
Platform(s): PS4, PS5 Genre: Adventure, Narrative Consequence, Story Choice, Single-Player Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol is probably one of the most adapted works in fiction, either directly or indirectly. I specifically refer to the concept of the spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Yet To Come (or Future). The idea of bearing witness...
Arkane Lyon's Deathloop was delayed to 14 September 2021, but that doesn't mean that we've forgotten about it. Sony Interactive Entertainment has announced a new PlayStation State Of Play live stream. It will air at 5am GMT+8 on Friday, 9 July 2021 and will run for about 30 minutes. Nine minutes of the live stream will be dedicated to Deathlo...
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.

Platform(s): PC, PS4, PS5 Genre: 2D Legend of Zelda action-adventure with MS Paint As someone in the creative field, I too have my fair share of self-doubt due to imposter syndrome. Sometimes I anxiously wonder if what I'm doing is for the greater good, whether people and peers alike will remember me for the mark I've left in this hobby-slash-j...
Skateboarding games, while fun, have two main issues: one - it can be tough for newbies from the get-go. Two: the places you skate in seem pretty barren. Enter OlliOlli World, a super-bright and cheery (albeit weird) game where you pull off skateboarding tricks for points on a 2D plane. Simple gameplay and controls, but its course design and cha...
We played Dreamscaper during its Early Access phase, and it was pretty sweet and melancholy in its delivery and mix of action RPG roguelike combat. So it's pretty awesome that the complete version of the game is slated later this year. Dreamscaper will be escaping its Early Access phase and be a fully-updated 1.0 launch title this 12th August. I...
Platform: PC Genre: 90s JRPG throwback Remember Quintet, the JRPG group that made classics like Illusion of Gaia and Terranigma? The game that made you focus more on getting humanity back on track and that there's no real focal antagonist except the force of nature and death itself? Indonesian developer stellarNull is making a game similar in c...

Project Warlock 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLM9VzWv1GM The s...

Platform(s): PC (Version played), Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One Genre: 2D Shooter Tribute To Metal Slug, But With A Goose Sometimes, simplicity is the best policy. If you tell me that someone is making a 2D run-and-gun game in the veins of the classic Metal Slug series, but starring a cybernetic bounty hunter Goose fighting aliens instead of N...
Platform: PC Genre: Isometric action-adventure bug mecha-piloting chillax odyssey We know that mechas and mechs are huge lumbering walking death-dealing machines. However, the indie action-adventure game Stonefly (made by the same folks behind Creature In The Well) might change that perception. In this world where humans are Lilliputian in scal...
Platform: PC Genre: 2D Action Game At first glance, the Malaysian-made indie 2D platformer The Company Man starts off jovial and satirical. You play a corporate worker named Jim as he rises to the top, fighting co-workers in a big corporation in different sectors using his keyboard weapon like a sword and emails as projectiles. The first few...
If you're looking forward to a neo-retro Metroidvania game this year, you may have to wait a little longer.

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...
