This is a 1990's point and click adventure set on a mysterious island. Join twins Archer and Sam as they delve into the secrets of both the island and their own heritage, and maybe save the world. Twins Archer and Sam just want to relax after getting shipped off to stay with their eccentric uncle for the summer. Too bad for them the world is ending, and only they can stop it. The genre is point and click adventure, similar to the PC classics from the 80s and 90s. Bent Oak Island was once a bustling tourist hot spot, until a fire burned through the town square and turned everything to cinders. With the destruction of the town center, tourism dried up, and with it the main source of income for the island. Now 15 years later, the island has moved on, but is a shell of it's former self. The future of the island seems bleak, and to make matters worse, an air of dread has settled on the islanders. Ned at the diner is barely able to make ends meet after the paper factory shut its doors. The Captain swears the fish he catches are talking about him behind his back. A strange, hairy creature has been sighted stalking through the forests of the nature preserve. And Ted from the University on the mainland has measured the beginnings of disturbing tectonic activity- vibrations in the ground. The same activity that happened 15 years ago on the night of the fire. Will Archer and Sam unravel the secrets of Bent Oak Island in time to save themselves from certain doom? Will Uncle finally be able to muster up the courage to ask out the head librarian? Will the pie shop ever actually have any pie in stock for people to eat? Find out the answers to these burning questions and much more by playing the game. In each scene there will be things to look at and interact with, items to collect, NPCs to talk to, and puzzles to solve. Gorgeous hand created pixel art, somewhere between NES and SNES graphics (Game does NOT use AI). Explore the island with main characters Archer and Sam, twins who get wrapped up in the island’s mysteries. A fully fleshed out world with deep lore that the player learns throughout the game. What starts out as a simple adventure turns into something much wilder and weirder. 100+ different scenes with locations ranging from mountain peaks, to underground lakes, from abandoned factories, to townie bars. Two main endings, with a third secret ending that requires numerous optional puzzles to be completed. It is a full, stand alone-game that tells the story of twins Archer and Sam on their summer vacation. It features puzzles, inventory items, fun characters and loads of dialogue. | ||

This is a narrative 2.5D sci-fi detective adventure. 33 years into the Zephyr's journey, its mission is suddenly jeopardized. Can you find the culprit before it's too late? Experience an enthralling story set in a semi-open world that branches and ends based on your choices. This is set aboard the Zephyr, humanity's first generation ship en route to another star. You assume the role of Stella, who was born on the ship 24 years ago and recently inherited her father's post as Chief of Security. Dive into the conspiracy behind the incident that threatens to disrupt the Zephyr's social order and foil its mission. It's a modern 2.5D pixel art adventure that brings a branching narrative into a semi-open world. The team at DigiTales has applied numerous lessons from their first game Lacuna and proven solutions to detective game design problems to maximize player agency in the investigation process – all the while maintaining the tight pacing of a meaningful story that will ask you to reevaluate your moral compass and make increasingly tough decisions as the situation aboard the ship spirals out of control. A New Kind of Experience: Between Horizons merges investigative-style gameplay with a branching sci-fi story in an ever-expanding Metroidvania-style environment. Solving Cases for Yourself: The flexible evidence system lets players assign clues to cases, confront ship denizens about them, and submit any case with evidence players have connected to it. Everything found on the ship is connected, but figuring out how - that’s the challenge. At What Cost?: Underneath the game's exciting and plausible sci-fi plot lies a number of thought-provoking problems inviting players to weigh intergenerational responsibility against personal freedom. Getting New Perspective: Timeless pixel art mixed with 3D environments and compelling visual effects come together in Between Horizons, creating a unique, beautiful art style. Failure is Very Much an Option: There are no second chances - submitting wrong solutions means the story will go on and players live with the consequences. A new and improved auto-save system will make sure there is no going back, as the story branches and endings are based on player decisions, none of which can be taken back. | ||

The story follows a rookie adventurer and a new healer in a dungeon quest, with the core gameplay involving hand-picked methods using weapons and items. Fight or purify? Heal or alter? The choice is in your hands. We are "Bread On Board," a collective of independent game developers spread across four countries, united by our passion and meeting during a GameJam.

After the competition, we even won the "Most Popular Game" award at an Online Game Trial Event. The full playthrough of our game will take about an hour. We hope to give you a short, but super heartwarming and loving adventure. A rookie adventurer fresh on the scene and a former mercenary who was transferred into an adventurer due to injury. Two protagonists with contrasting personalities will embark on an adventure of fantasy and healing together. In the mysterious ruins of an underground dungeon that lies in the depth of a jungle, what awaits them will be... According to the tavern's adventurer logs, the team heading into the dungeon features a rookie adventurer and an ex-mercenary who is now working as a healer. The adventurer looks as charming as a doll, and the enthusiasm never disappears; the healer is cool and a bit traditional, acting as a guiding figure for their adventure. What stories have unfolded between these two contrasting characters, and what challenges will they face together in this adventure? The continuation of this adventurous story is yours to discover. "People think battles need powerful weapons, but strategy at hand is key." The power of your strategy is materialized as the numerical values of your hands in combat. You can swap different weapons or items held in your left and right hands to alter your character's attack and defense stats.

As you delve deeper into the dungeon, you will take the unique traits of monsters into consideration and discuss strategies with your allies. In this adventure, you'll discover not only the secrets hidden within the dungeon, but also the truths about the world and the characters themselves. When faced with contaminated monsters, you can choose to either fight them or attempt to purify them. Of course, you also have the option to let things take their own course. With each decision, the fate of the protagonists may change. The end of this adventure... is yours to decide. | ||

In the world of excessive biotechnologies, an epidemic is ravaging the human race, infecting people's neuronet implants and enslaving them to the mysterious Worm. Who are you: a fighter of the infection, or a hunter of new prey? The game is like a cross between Cronenberg's ‘eXistenZ’ and the good old-fashioned 'Goblins' game series: solve challenging puzzles in a world of living technology. It's an unhurried chamber point-n-click adventure set in a Smart House struck with achootecture; meet talking cursors, get humorous reactions to almost every player action, explore a surreal mix of science fiction and alchemical imagery. It's impossible to get stuck: built-in hints are always ready to lend a helping tentacle... To overcome the challenges you’ll have to use your natural and implanted organs (nose, mouth, bioport, reference mollusc, caterpillar-injecta, etc.), which also communicate with each other. The game isn't very long, somewhere between 5-8 hours, but exploring the world is encouraged; even "wrong" actions generate unique reactions (and achievements too). You'll learn something new about this strange world, or maybe you'll just smile. Much of the game takes place in the spirit of fun classic quests like 'Space Quest' and 'Sam & Max Hit the Road', but towards the end the mood shifts to the darker side in the spirit of 'Sanitarium' and 'I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream'. Features: Biointerfaces - for poking, sniffing, and nibbling everything in sight; Body modifications - your bioport craves insectampules, and your ear can be detached and sent on a mission; Weird characters - a naturmorph, a crocoquacker, an octopod, and other of Adem's 11; Bizarre items - bioflashes, sniffer snails, brain cartridges, pheromone pods, and more; Unusual locations - a rooflid, an ichthyoserver room, and the lair of a love-struck shoggoth, etc.; Virtual Assistant "Jolly Jelly" with a dubious sense of humor ("If you've got hairy hands, you don't need a towel!"); Dramatic plot - presented concisely and without lengthy dialogues.

Cheers m'dears. This fangame plays just like Monkey Island, but it's set in s01e04 of the tv seriesOur Flag Means Death. The goal: be a lighthouse. You've never played Monkey Island before? It's okay. Here are tips on how to navigate the game. Pay attention to the action panel. The upper line lets you know which action is currently selected. By default, it's "Walk to". That means your current character will walk to wherever you click, if it's accessible. If you want to do something else, first select a verb, than click any interactable topic. You can spot interactable topics by moving the pointer in the scene: if the cursor's color changes and the upper line of the action panel changes, you've found one! Maybe first you try clicking "Talk To", then "Ed". Items in your inventory are also interactable topics. Most verbs expect only one topic to be selected. However, these expect two: "Give" (Give [topic 1] to [topic 2]) and "Use" (Use [topic 1] with [topic 2]). And finally, you can switch characters. Click the character's portrait on the right of the action panel. | ||

In 2018, Infinity Blade I and its sequels were delisted from the AppStore, and in 2020, they were removed permanently, making the games impossible to legally obtain and install. This port aims to preserve what was lost by bringing the original Infinity Blade I experience to PC, with some minor alterations to better accommodate a PC experience. It's an action sword-fighting game. It marks the first use of the Unreal Engine 3 engine for a mobile game. Infinity Blade was designed specifically for mobile devices, featuring an intuitive touch-screen interface to combat enemies by swiping and tapping the screen, as well as picking paths through the medieval castle, and searching for loot. The game features frantic and addictive swordplay, detailed 3D visuals, and the ability to earn, collect, and level up increasingly-powerful weapons and gear. The story centers around a knight's quest to overthrow the tyrannical God-King, an immortal ruler defended by a series of powerful Titans - but the God-King has his own agenda and secrets. Game Center leader-boards and achievements are included, and multi-player promised for a future update. | ||

Experiment with different mods and car parts to navigate a treacherous landscape, and look good doing it; Unravel the mystery of the Olympic Exclusion Zone, an abandoned research site in an anomaly-filled version of the Pacific Northwest; Original score by Wilbert Roget, II and featuring 20+ licensed songs. Drive to survive - It’s you and your station wagon against an unforgiving, vicious world. It’ll take more than a fresh set of tires to keep you alive, on and off the road. Your faithful wagon can be upgraded and reinforced to protect you, but the car is going to take a beating. Keep your gas tank filled and your panels intact to withstand the radiation permeating the Zone. You’ll be pushed to your limit - making repairs on the fly, scavenging materials wherever you can, and adapting your rolling fortress to tackle the many life-threatening dangers that lurk in the shadows. Investigate the zone - The experimental leftovers of the secretive ARDA organization remain scattered across the Zone, and finding answers won’t be easy. Everywhere you look you’ll find anomalies, surreal forces of a twisted nature that make your journey more difficult... or more interesting. Silhouettes in the dark, rolling piles of scrap metal, and towering pillars of earth - each trip is packed with otherworldly hazards. As terrifying as those may be, nothing compares to the overwhelming power of a Zone Storm. Stomp on the gas and outrun it if you can - these rolling maelstroms rend the landscape and obliterate anything that sticks around too long. Don’t let that be you. Check the map, pack some gear for the trip, and hit the road. Gather resources and collect data as you go, there’s all sorts of useful stuff inside the walls of the Zone. Make it back safely and use the contents of your trunk to improve your car and garage. Every time you venture out, new trials await: bizarre weather, unforgiving landscapes, and experimental remnants. The golden rule in the Zone is ‘nothing ventured, nothing gained’ - some materials can only be found in the most dangerous places. Be smart out there, and don’t waste time - it’s going to be a long haul. | ||

Everybody who works at repulse loves fantasy anime, we are huge fans of shows like Attack on Titan and Full Metal Alchemist. And we also like to play visual novels especially the ones with erotic and lesbian content. When we finished our last virtual reality game, we asked ourselves: What if we could combine the elements we love most about anime and visual novels in a full interactive VR experience. And that is exactly what Iragon is about. You play the game as Darick, a poor kid from a small village. Everything for him changes when he meets Erika, a bisexual girl who gets ambushed by soldiers of the Empire. To help her, you must learn to use your magic, but on your quest to bring her home safe you will have to journey into a dangerous frozen world. Along the way, you will battle enemy soldiers, undead skeletons, and perhaps cross paths with seductive creatures of the frozen land while you unlock new erotic adventures with the beautiful Erika. So this is ultimately a game about living out a high fantasy adventure, with a strong emphasis on putting the player in control. The game is meant to be experienced in VR, but we dedicated an equal amount of care in delivering a standard version that will work for players who do not have a VR headset. Whether you play in VR or not, you can expect of us to deliver these features: A beautiful love interest; Interactive experiences with your love interest; Different outfits for the love interest; Voice acting; Motion captured animations; A dynamic combat system that features both magic and melee; Destructible environments; A dialogue choice system that influences the response you get. Be the hero, live the story, and go on an adventure of a lifetime while you immerse yourself fully in the world of Iragon, with a complete animated story and full voice acted cast (skip options also available for those who prefer to just get on with slaying witches and laying bitches). And yes, of course this is not just a story you watch it is a game. Battle enemies, cast spells, collect loot, upgrade, interact with NPC's, go on quests. It has everything you would expect from a fantasy RPG game. | ||

Jesus did not die on the cross, but came down and unleashed vengeance on all the nonbelievers. 1500 years later, an army of Inquisitors brutally enforce the faith. In this dark fantasy adventure you solve intricate cases and unveil abysmal secrets as Inquisitor Mordimer Madderdin. The Inquisitor is a story-driven, dark fantasy adventure game with action elements, that compels you to face difficult moral choices. The game is set in an alternative version of (religious) reality. Inspired by bestselling Inquisitor book series by Jacek Piekara. Once nailed to the cross and near death, Jesus becomes consumed by utter rage. He breaks free and unleashes violent vengeance on all the non-believers. Centuries pass and now an army of zealot Inquisitors brutally enforce the faith in this blood-soaked Church. You are Mordimer Madderdin, an Inquisitor in God's service, sent to the town of Koenigstein which is plagued by a series of mysteries and sin. Solve the various cases and crimes of those who have transgressed against the faith, all while uncovering the truth of a darker evil from another realm that is trying to enter the world of the living. Be the ultimate Holy Judge and Jury: Your role as an Inquisitor is to maintain order and enforce the faith in God. But the world is full of sinners who have lost their way. Decide the fates of those you judge in multiple story-driven cases and missions. This is a world where morality and what is right have long strayed from each other. So, will you show mercy or undying belief in The Holy Law? A morally tainted, non-linear tale: This is a dark and gritty story centered around a religion preaching revenge and violence. Multiple branching story choices will test your morality. Choose your path and decide what kind of Inquisitor you will be - one of pity or one of retribution - and ultimately what mark you will leave on this world. Enlightened sleuthing: Mordimer has unique skills and abilities that allow him to solve the various crimes and mysteries that have befallen Koenigstein. Track down and interrogate suspects. Discover the hidden truths of the city and its inhabitants. Piece together the evidence and make your final judgments. Delve into the Unworld: Unbeknownst to those around him, Mordimer has the ability to enter the mysterious Unworld. There he can discover the deeper secrets that suspects have tried to hide in their souls. But there is a grave risk when venturing into this world and the dark force which reigns supreme here will do everything it can to destroy you for stepping foot into its realm. Persuasive interrogations: The 1500’s remain a cruel era of justice. As an Inquisitor, you have free rein to use whatever methods and tools deemed necessary to persuade suspects to reveal ‘the truth’. These optional interrogations date back to the times of the real Inquisition and it’s up to you to decide if and how much force to apply to those under your investigation. Let your sword do the talking: Sometimes a tongue just needs to be cut right out in order to loosen it. A full sword-based combat system means various cases will let or even require you to use brute force. Master your blade, find your openings, and use your enemy’s weak points against them. | ||

Early Access Release From the award-winning developers of Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori and the Will of the Wisps comes a visceral, precision Action RPG set to reinvent the genre. The year is 841 – King Harol is dead. As word of his death echoes throughout the kingdom, the crown passes to his arrogant, yet untested son Magnus. Even worse, the Pestilence, an unholy plague not seen for a thousand years, has returned. It sweeps across the land, corrupting everything and everyone it touches. Madrigal Seline, a ruthlessly ambitious figure in the church, sees the Pestilence as a chance to prove herself in the eyes of her god. These forces converge on the backwater Isola Sacra, where rebel groups and the provincial government fight for control amid the isle’s crumbling ruins. You are a Cerim – a member of a group of mystical holy warriors imbued with remarkable powers and sworn to defeat the Pestilence at any cost. But the task will prove increasingly challenging as you become entangled in the people’s plight and the vast political struggle of this downtrodden land. Chaos will pull you in every direction as you seek to cleanse the land of wickedness and shape the kingdom’s fate. Features: Hone combat skills with a system that challenges you to be deliberate and strategic. Battle against gruesome creatures, enemy soldiers, and punishing bosses in tense, visceral combat. Feel the weight and speed of each weapon through their own move sets. Enchant armaments with runes, craft rare armor, and create bespoke character builds that fit your playstyle. Discover a mature, dark narrative on the harsh shores of Isola Sacra. Cunning rulers and ferocious rebels vie for the throne – all while an ancient plague sweeps across the land, turning its inhabitants into monstrous versions of themselves. Explore a painting come to life – take in the striking painterly world, meticulously built with an incredible attention to detail in a unique, ageless art style. Beauty radiates in every frame, from the dappled sunlight of the Lowland Meadows to the viscera-smeared, twisted shadows of the Nameless Pass. Each new location is home to its own people, problems, hidden treasures, and secrets to unearth. Take respite in the town of Sacrament – purchase property and decorate it to make it your own. Fish on the shores, till and harvest the land for ingredients to create meals that replenish health and boost stats. Acquaint yourself with the diverse array of vendors and townsfolk and restore Sacrament to its former glory. Share your world and progress with up to three friends by your side in the campaign’s online co-op mode. Every quest, boss, and square foot of Isola Sacra is theirs to share with you…or they can simply venture off and do as they please. | ||

|
A remake of an iconic 2006 jRPG, developed by Atlus and running on the Unreal Engine. Persona 3 Reload has us playing as a Japanese high school student, facing monsters known as Shadows during the night. It's set in a fictional Japanese town of Iwatodai, home to an unusual phenomenon. Every day a Dark Hour occurs at midnight, an additional hour during which most people turn into coffins. The exceptions are several students from Gekkoukan High School, who have other issues to deal with during that time. Each Dark Hour their school turns into a massive tower called the Tartarus, filled with monsters called Shadows. They're opposed by the SEES (Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad), a group of students tasked with fighting the monsters. They fight using the titular Personas, reflections of their hearts which reveal themselves in face of danger. We play as one of the members of the SEES. During the day he's a regular student, while during the night he climbs Tartarus, fighting Shadows. It's up to us to maintain balance between both of his lives. It's a third-person game (TPP). The gameplay is divided into two layers, the first being ordinary school life. During the day we must attend classes, take exams, attend school dances or participate in sports competitions. We must also establish and maintain friendships and relationships. During the night we battle Shadows alongside our classmates, using our Personas. Battles are turn-based. To succeed, we must skillfully use the abilities of the party's different Personas. The events during the day have an effect on the might - some of our party members may be unavailable, busy studying or recovering from an illness. Maintaining our bonds with them makes them stronger too. Progressing through the game develops our character and grants new Personas, which can be fused together into more powerful forms. Compared to the original game, the remake contains new scenes, events and gameplay changes, mostly involving the combat system. It runs on the Unreal Engine. The game retains the original's colorful, manga-like artstyle, though the visuals have been refreshed and are now more detailed. The audio was also changed; the soundtrack consists of new tracks and remixes of the original songs, while the English voice cast was entirely recast. | ||

| Thaumaturge, The | Fool's Theory / 11 bit studios | [top] | |
|---|---|---|---|
|
|
This is a story-driven RPG with morally ambiguous choices, taking place in the culturally diverse world of early 20th century Warsaw. In this world, Salutors exist: esoteric beings that only Thaumaturges can truly perceive and use for their needs. It's an isometric, story-rich RPG with a unique take on turn-based combat, character development features, and investigation mechanics, facing you with morally ambiguous choices – set in a world teeming with mysterious powers and strange ethereal beings called Salutors. The year is 1905. Warsaw lives under the yoke of imperial Russian tsardom. Its inhabitants constitute a diverse group of different ancestries, views, and beliefs with often conflicting interests: Russian soldiers, Jewish merchants, Polish townspeople, and more. Despite the circumstances, the city is a buzzing metropolis, where one can attend a breathtaking party with the high society, and later get robbed in one of the dark alleys of the Praga district. A city of great hopes and dreams on one hand and dark desires on the other. A thaumaturge bears both a gift and a burden at the same time. This parallel holds true for Wiktor Szulski, the game’s titular protagonist, who is drawn back to the tumultuous streets of 20th-century Warsaw by family matters. The gift of thaumaturgy is intertwined with family legacy, passed down through one's ancestors. This mystical inheritance significantly shapes Wiktor’s life journey tied around a pursuit of unearthly entities and their hosts. As only a thaumaturge can tame these ethereal entities - known to a select few as Salutors - utilizing their mystical abilities to discover secrets hidden within the human soul and speak to the Darkness, no one understands quite like Wiktor how everyone suffers their own demons. Features: Shape your story – as a full-fledged RPG, it allows you to alternate your choices and make you deal with the aftermath. Develop your character – creating your own version of the Thaumaturge will allow you to approach situations in different ways. Experience unique turn-based combat and defeat your foes using human attacks and skills as well as psychic strikes delivered by Salutors. Influence and manipulate the temperaments of other characters to bend their will to your liking.

Early Access Release This is an RPG sandbox with a deep, reactive influence system that allows you to shape the fate of the world. Experience the living, reactive lands of Kalsundia through unprecedented options to roleplay your character, influence others and set your own goals. Each choice along your journey feeds into a non-linear narrative system that changes relationships and outcomes dynamically. Gone are the days of laborious quest chains as you enter into a freer world of milestones and opportunities where you choose who to help, what to do, and what you aim to achieve. Backed by classic turn-based combat and stealth systems, and steeped in a universe from the mind of Ed Greenwood, creator of the Forgotten Realms – you are invited to shape the fate of the world. Actions Have Consequences - Kalsundia is alive. Its inhabitants act, and react, with purpose. They own properties, have unique personalities, befriend some, and make enemies of others. They have likes and dislikes, and can form an appreciation of – or disdain for – factions, individuals, and you. How you interact with them builds your bespoke world and tells your unique story. Choices Shape Destiny - The consequences of your actions are both far-reaching and powerful. With each opportunity, you may sow the seeds of chaos, unite people against tyranny, become a conqueror and more. As choices are made, your influence spreads across the world and dynamically changes not only how you are perceived, but how people and factions perceive and interact with each other. Everything eventually culminates into one final fate for Kalsundia. Comprehensive Customization - Unleash your creativity with deep character creation systems inspired by tabletop RPGs. Customize your appearance, abilities, and backstory. Gather Your Party - Set out and recruit others in Kalsundia who align with your goals. Unlike most RPGs, there is no limitation to who you can recruit, but keep in mind that everyone has their own desires and might not be willing to do things that are against their nature. Find Your Path - Roll for initiative and carefully plan your moves in a CRPG turn-based combat system where the execution of precise tactics emboldens you to emerge victorious from each battle. Or, embrace the art of subterfuge with stealth systems, mastering the shadows to manipulate your surroundings and achieve your objectives undetected. | ||

Paradise isn't exactly what you hoped for: it's infested with zombies! Thankfully, you can control them. Capture them and teach them to farm or fight. They will help you defend our camp while you explore the world looking for... a new paradise. Do you want your very own zombie companion? A faithful friend that protects you from its peers and accompanies you on all your adventures? At ParadiZe, we make it happen. Here, the zombies do all the dirty work. In the beautiful country of ParadiZe, ingenious survivors are testing a technology that can be used to control the zombies that have overrun the world. Once hacked, they become invaluable allies, even though they are not that smart and sometimes rather unstable. It's not all rosy in ParadiZe, but if you're reasonably clever and handy, maybe you'll manage to survive. Explore ParadiZe and meet a colourful cast of extraordinary characters. The unusual flora and fauna will surprise you at every turn. Set out on adventure, in the snow or desert, alone or with your Zombot companions, and feel free to get rid of any pests that try to disturb your stay with us. Fancy an expedition into the wilderness or would you prefer to laze about at your camp? It's your choice, so tailor your stay as you see fit. However, we recommend not getting too close to the locals: they can be somewhat... aggressive. Shortly after arriving, you must build your camp, a cosy little nest that you can gradually upgrade. Comfort is important, but don't forget to set up defences! Add multiple traps and fortifications to repel zombies, which have the bad habit of never leaving you alone. It takes effort to maintain a camp, but if you don't like such menial tasks, don't worry: as we already told you, zombies do all the dirty work here. You can be a loner during your stay or more sociable. Invite up to three of your friends so they can enjoy this unforgettable experience with you. ParadiZe welcomes everyone with open arms. | ||

On your adventure, it will be up to you to uncover the true connection between Head, the air tanks, and the technology that litters the world, so you can save Head no matter the cost. Finding your way through Airheads world is not always easy. You must brave dark caverns, ancient structures, and other mysterious locations in order to save Head.

Now, it must rely on air tanks to keep the Head inflated, while it searches far and wide for the machine that stole Head’s air source.

Join RIN, the last child of the Creator, on a journey to restore order in a mystical world. Collect aspects and runes, craft spells, and confront powerful bosses - your transformed siblings. The fate of the world rests in your hands. Can you restore harmony to this enchanted realm? Play as RIN, the last child of the Creator, on a journey to restore order in a mystical world. Collect aspects and runes, craft spells, and confront powerful bosses - your transformed siblings. The fate of the world rests in your hands. The story of RIN, her siblings, and their Creator, the Teller of Tales, was inspired by the well-known ancient myth about Cronus and his conflict with his children. It also touches upon the overall passing of gods who must be replaced by new gods. The creation myths seemed to match perfectly Metroidvania's dark fairy tale - no trace of man, but the importance of magic. An important motif and another layer of the script is the conflict between being obedient to authority - the father (the Creator) or freedom - the free will and responsibility for. There are 18 elemental spells from three categories: attack (10), defense (5), and utility (3). The spells are created of Aspects of Magic (5) and Spell Patterns. Then, they can be enchanted with a currency by Lesser Runes (adding more damage) or upgraded by an upgrade scheme and Great Runes (changing the effect). The quick slot allows assigning 3 spells at a time but gives an option to quickly swap to another spell set. Mathematically, considering the combination of Lesser Runes, Great Runes, and Upgrades, there are as many as 7776 spells variants. As you progress, the spells can be disassembled in order to use the aspects components for another assembly. On your exploration journey, you will fight many small creatures formed from their locations such as Slimes, Mosquitoes, but also bigger creepy beasts like Rats or Spitting Plants. The main fights though, will not only require a neat set of spells and skills but most importantly the decisions to take based on your will. As RIN, the sixth child of the Creator, you will confront five bosses - your unknown siblings. The fate of the world rests in your hands. Can you save everyone? | ||

The metroidvania you wish you’d played as a kid. Unlock and upgrade ludicrous weapons & skills, obliterate your enemies into bits of pixel gore, and forge your own path as you ride the vast and perilous wasteland on your trusty BMX. A BMX-powered pixel-art Metroidvania gore-fest based on the 2015 cult film Turbo Kid. You play as a lone warrior on a quest to cross a Wasteland riddled with scoundrels and creeps who you'll have to go through - literally - in order to survive. Run, crawl, jump, hang, and, for the very first time in a Metroidvania (don’t research this), bike your way through the world. Ladies and gentlemen, we give you the height of human-powered transport technology: the all-terrain Bike. Your trusty BMX is one touch of a button away at any time. Move around the map faster, access new areas, launch it at enemies, and perform sick bike tricks to gain bonuses. Hack and slash your enemies with the obligatory machete or shoot them with the Kid’s choc-full-of-mayhem Turbo Glove. Turbo Blast, Electric Shocks, circular saws... use the array of weapons at your disposal to slash, rip apart, or explode enemies into hysterical and over-the-top splashes of gore. Our story begins immediately after the movie ends. On your journey, you will meet weirdos and oddballs, some friends, some foes, and some in-between, who will offer advice, quests, fights, and jokes (lots of jokes) in a heartfelt and hysterical story created in collaboration with the filmmakers behind the movie. Explore the different zones and defeat bosses in the order you see fit, make choices that will affect the course of the story, allowing for multiple playthroughs with different paths and outcomes. If you don’t care about the story and you’re only in it for the gameplay (speedrun afficionados, we’re looking at you), all the dialogue is skippable.

Trapped in the eternal loop of a black hole, you will have to explore The Sarcophagus and meet its inhabitants to understand the part you play. Are you the gruesome breaker of this cycle, or can you become a link from destruction to rebirth? It's set in a multifaceted realm - a vast alien landscape teeming with life. Grounded in science fiction, ULTROS comes wrapped in an eccentric art style and a mystical soundtrack from the visionary El Huervo, renowned for his work on Hotline Miami.

Among them, Professor Patrick Moore stands at the forefront, and he is now at a crossroads - he's got 72 hours to prove the existence of the Great Beyond or else his Metapsychic Investigations Department will shut down forever. Racing against the clock, with the help of a fake medium named Beatrice Shaw, he must complete a prototype of the Box of Revelations, an artefact devised by his missing mentor that enables seeing dimensions hidden in our reality. Building this device will take him from the foggy streets of London to the steep shores of Scotland, and finally to 34 Benwell Street, known as the most haunted manor of England. Point & click adventure gameplay based on inventory puzzles. More than 60 detailed pixel art backgrounds to explore. A cast of more than 70 characters to interact with, including real figures from the period, such as the medium Florence Cook, physicist William Crookes, illusionist Harry Houdini, and even writer Arthur Conan Doyle, whom you will control to solve one of the game's mysteries. Take a breather from history by reading horror stories at Falk's Horror Books, perusing an archive of supernatural cases, or going to the theater to watch the last film sensation by Georges Méliès: Évocation Spirite. Inspired by the works of the greatest horror authors from the beginning of the 20th century, M.R. James, Algernon Blackwood, and Arthur Machen. From the creator of award-winning Nightmare Frames and Urban Witch Story. | ||

Release Date: TBA Dionysus, the god of wine, is feeling somber. He's turned some pirates into dolphins. He's thrown a king or two into a cave. And now some other king in Thebes is talking smack. But none of that has cheered him up. It's the playwrights the kids listen to these days. Mumble poets and people using automatons to speak their lines... he's sick of it. Back in his day the likes of Euripides could tear apart a stage and leave the crowd screaming for more. He's decided it's up to him to set things right. This is a point-and-click adventure game based on the ancient Greek comedy by Aristophanes. It's a hodgepodge of ancient wit, Pythonesque animation, Renaissance artwork, and public domain classical music all wrapped up in a ball of irreverent humor from a mind way too influenced by the likes of Terry Practhett and Jasper Fforde. Still out to sea aboard the Cleisthenes and having just read Andromeda, Dionysus is pumped and ready to get back to his theater in Athens so he can get to work improving the world of the arts for the good of everyone. But we all know it can't be that easy... he has to go through a lot of content to make it worth the asking price. Features: Innovative Point-and-Click Interface; Ancient Humor Circa 405 BCE; Choices That Matter; Multiple Solutions to Puzzles; Renaissance Artwork; Classical Music; Hidden Optional Content; Tons Of Interactive Elements and NPCs; References So Niche You'll Wonder Why I Bothered; Multiple Endings Whether Aristophanes Likes It Or Not; What's He Gonna Do?

He will meet his guide and mentor: Calypso. Thanks to this encounter, Simon will be able to gain a new friend who will represent a symbolic grandfather for him.

A strong bond with these features has been maintained in the dialogues, situations, and animations. Simon will often break the fourth wall by speaking directly to the players. “Hey, I am talking to you, the future player I can magically sense who is reading the Steam Page about my game”. Legacy - A tale that travels through time from a legendary past towards a great future. This is not a remake, guys - it's a brand new game with its roots deeply bonded with the contemporary gaming world. Stunning 2D Art -Simon the Sorcerer Origins' visuals and animations, refined in every detail, let the player live his adventure in a continuous flow that goes from gameplay to cutscenes and vice-versa. Puzzle and Comedy - The player will encounter a wide range of different kinds of puzzles. You could either challenge your wits with the classical “take and use” ones, seasoned with unexpected comedy interludes, or you can be called to solve magical arquebuses that will require the help of a little bit of sorcery. Hunt for clues, objects to combine, and all the weird stuff in the middle to reach the skill of a decent mage. Original License - This is a canonical chapter of Simon's saga. Easter Eggs - Look for them because they could be anywhere, also in a description of a Steam page. | ||

Release Date: May 23 Use living liquid creatures to build bridges, grow towers, terraform terrain, and fuel flying machines. The world is beautiful, dangerous, and evolving. Game levels are divided into chapters, just like in the first game, and some familiar gameplay mechanics, including gravity and wind, are present. A new type of goo, Brown Goo, can be attached to terrain instead of other goo structures, and will become part of that terrain when attached. Another major new gameplay mechanic is liquids, which include goo liquid, that comes from some sort of pipe, and magma, which destroys structures and kills goo balls upon collision. Finally, Goo Cannons are expected to appear, which are attached to structures and will shoot out goo balls from the structure periodically. There is also a version of the Goo Cannons that spew liquid instead. Glow Goo and Ice Goo are also slated to appear, both of which are early concepts re-imagined. Ice Goo appears to shatter when too much pressure is applied, and the Glow Goo emits a glowing effect. There are also bombs, but they are not related to Sticky Bombs. Another new goo type is the Jelly Goo. Jelly Goo is able to roll and be cut into pieces, just like jelly. | ||

Release Date: TBA This is a hyperactive 2D action platformer made by a solo developer. It's got a focus on vibrancy, responsiveness and freedom. You've got simple, responsive (and remappable!) inputs, fluid and versatile movement options and extremely fast combat to allow you to jump around and beat down however the heck you want. It takes a ton of inspirations from all the games and characters I enjoyed growing up, so you might notice some of that here. The goal is for the game itself to be so fun that you'd be willing to open it up just to screw around in the hub world. You're put into the shoes of Neon, a special android with access to Resonance: an ability to rapidly scale in power. The harder the beatdown Neon dishes out, the stronger they become, until they're a nigh unstoppable snowball of devastation. The catch? This power wears off when you're hit even once. Neon is incredibly fast and powerful, but can only maintain that extreme potential when they're avoiding damage and continuously dishing it out. Like Celeste? You can use its dash twice! Go nuts. Avoid everything. Counterattack through your enemies. Heck, wavedash jump cancel if you want. Like Smash Bros? Well we've got platform-fighter style combat here, so knock your foes around and KO them with that satisfying offscreen explosion. Combat lets you cancel virtually everything into everything else. Make your own combos! Hit, stun and run! Start up that combo with a dash! Unleash a barrage of punches like it's an anime reference! Teleport behind the enemy and end them with a break attack. No preset combos or optimal strats to remember; just hit and don't get hit and you'll win regardless of your playstyle. | ||

Release Date: TBA This is an action-adventure, platformer that pays homage to the largely absent video game hall-of-famer, Castlevania in its 2D form. Using pre-rendered sprites, the game is presented in beautiful, crisp 1080p at 60 frames per second. Players will whip through hordes of enemies, and utilize seven different subweapons such as the dagger, sickle, murder of crows and more. Some items have special attacks that can devastate enemies and quickly even the playing field. During the late 14th century, the angel of death, Azrael - fell out of favor with God and launched a campaign to create an army using the souls he was meant to deliver for judgement. He unleashed a terrible plague that devastated millions, giving him the souls he needed to wage war on humanity. During this time, a rancher and squire named Corbin Delacroix endeavored on a quest to slay the fallen angel. He was successful in his task, and with the angel of death destroyed, Corbin inherited the powers of Azrael. He journeyed throughout the continent, liberating the souls that were once under Azrael's dark spell. Many years passed, and Corbin's divine task began to take a toll on his body. A cult led by a vampire sorceress named Aeron sought to restore power to Azrael, and saw their opportunity - killing the weakened Corbin. However, Corbin's powers transferred into his next of blood - his daughter, Aurora. Using the whip crafted from Azrael's bones, Aurora sets out to avenge her father and slay the resurrected angel. Features: Every level has multiple bosses; Whip across chasms for fast-paced platforming action; Varied environments enhance the gameplay experience and keep it fresh; Cutscenes after each level to tell the story of Aurora and her quest; An original, orchestra/rock hybrid score - Familiar, yet fresh; Enemies will suit each stage. Expect new enemies and patterns every level. | ||

Release Date: TBA This is a 2D Fan-game inspired by the Classics. Taking a more "Saturn" approach with its art direction, Galactic aims to be a sort of continuation to where the classics left off. Aiming to follow the classics, Galactic features new zones, brand new sprites, and a new character. This energetic mole is more than willing to join the team in their battle against Dr. Eggman. This has been a fangame underworks for about 3 years, and is currently using Hatch Game Engine, an engine built from the ground up with accuracy perfectly replicating the classics. The group assembles. These 5 are the ones responsible for putting an end to Eggman's plans this time around. Sonic the Hedgehog: The blue blur filled with attitude, Sonic's always itching to embark on a new venture! With the prolonged absence of Dr. Eggman after their last battle, he starts to gain a false sense of security during his vacation, little does he know of what was to come. Miles "Tails" Prower: Sonic's closest ally and most trusted friend, this curious fox is always willing to follow alongside Sonic in his adventures! After scanning the badniks that disturbed their vacation, Tails (alongside Sonic) make haste for their source location, Dr. Eggman. Knuckles the Echidna: The steadfast protector of Angel Island and the Master Emerald. Knuckles quickly caught on to Dr. Eggman's resurfacing with the badniks that attacked Angel Island. None of them coming to target the Master Emerald raised Knuckles' suspicion well enough. Understanding what this meant, Knuckles meets up with Sonic and co. to take Dr. Eggman down for good. Fang the Sniper: This cunning weasel always has a plan to make himself a bountiful profit (most of them to his detriment...). Fang didn't take too kindly to being abandoned in the Atomic Destroyer by Dr. Eggman, so he's teamed up with Sonic and co. to take him down... for purely selfish reasons and rewards, of course. Tunnel the Mole: This excitable young mole is adventurous and always up for a challenge. After noticing the abnormalities of Illusion Island caused by Dr. Eggman, Tunnel makes the decision himself to follow Sonic and co.'s trail after deciphering they're to be trusted to get to the bottom of what's going on. | ||

Release Date: May 15 This is a game inspired by survival and souls-like games. You need to gather clues of your missing daughter, using your own way to defeat fearsome bosses, fighting to survive, crafting to weaponize, building for your future, to reveal the secrets, and get out of this cursed kingdom. The flames extinguish on a cursed kingdom. No light remains to illuminate your way, your precious memories slowly crumbling before you. As everything is about to end, could this new world be the salvation you seek? Or is it another false image served to you foreshadowing the exile of your soul? On the border between life and death, you are transported to a blighted and unfamiliar land. Your daughter is missing and you can only save her by fighting your way through fearsome bosses. A dead man can’t save her, but by gathering all your will to continue living, you might just be able to rescue her and escape this bedeviled realm together. Sandbox Survival - Conquer this land’s harsh environments with your own two hands by crafting everything you need to survive. Build your own weapons to defeat ghoulish foes, construct your own armor to withstand their attacks, build a shelter to rest and respawn; build whatever you can to make it one more day. The strongest enemies can be felled more easily by crafting and preparing to even up the odds. With NPCs, quests, and trading, you may be taking on this journey alone, but you’re never without company. Epic Fantasy Combat - It's inspired by other major Souls-like games, but is a more approachable game for all audiences. Mastering the game’s systems will tune the difficulty to your liking, giving you the challenge you crave while avoiding any unwanted frustration. Unrelenting bosses await your arrival to prove that you have the mettle to surmount their rampages. Find Your Own Path - There is no single path every player will follow in Kingdom of Fallen. You will move toward whatever resource or vista calls to you, and discover resources to help you and enemies to block your way. In the game’s various environments, you will find different kinds of materials to create your weapons and armor, encouraging you to scour every region of the damned land to get stronger. Dynamic day and night cycles, along with dynamic weather, will make every visit to a new area or on well-trodden ground a novel experience. Beware, however, as not all creatures in Kingdom of Fallen are clear in their intentions. Magic books that claim to teleport you around the land are capable of lying and may send you places you are not fully prepared to go. Step Inside - This blend of survival and Soulslike mechanics promises to be a compelling challenge for all kinds of players. Do you have what it takes to not only rescue your daughter, but survive the harsh kingdom that lies between the two of you? | ||

This is an isometric, story-driven, action-RPG with an expansive, interconnected map and quest system. Battle nightmarish creatures, customize your abilities, and collect unique items and equipment. In order to beat the game, you’ll have to infiltrate the massive lairs of the five demon lords, and take on the apocalyptic boss battles at their centers.

The player takes control of John as his adventure's lead him through an hour by hour experience of what may be everyone's last night on Earth. He will encounter unearthly evils, Demon lords, afflicted townsfolk, and high school bullies... All nested in a larger than life fantasy that brings ultimate evil to a neighborhood near you. The main quest in Kingdom Of Night involves defeating the Five Demon Generals and gaining access to Baphomet's fortress, Leviathan. After the first introductory chapter of the game, which we call Midnight, the entire map of Watford opens up for the player to explore, and the Five Demon Generals can be defeated in any order. When starting the game, you can choose from 1 of 9 classes. The class you choose decides your base play style, while the skill trees allow for further customization. Rather than implementing a balance on all classes, each class is weighted differently providing each with a unique play-style. Building Your Character - Each class has a skill tree split into 3 branches. Each branch contains 10 talents. As you level up, you are allotted points to spend into any of the the three branches of your class. Once you have chosen your first talent in a branch you are locked into that specific branch until level 10. When you have reached level 10, you are free to cross over into another branch, allowing you to fully customize your play-style. You can get new equipment in a number of ways: via random drops with multi-tiered loot tables and variable drop rates, quest rewards, and by finding items hidden throughout the town. Items range from totally Common to completely Unique. The items you collect provide an extra dimension to character stat development and have special abilities that will make you even more powerful. | ||

Release Date: TBA Three months ago, you died. And in that moment you were reborn as something new. A monster. A predator. Not a creature of the night, but one of its masters. Unfortunately, things aren't simple as they used to be. Vampires have finally been exposed, and though your existence is tolerated, your new nature is not. You came to the City hoping for a new start, but found only suspicion and starvation. Now you stare at the ceiling of your cheap hotel room as a penniless outcast, suckling on rats and destined to wither away. But every new era brings new opportunities, and in the political chaos of a world gone mad, even an outcast may rise. An outcast can change everything. This is the story of how you rose. This is the brand new urban fantasy RPG from creator of The Blackwell Legacy, Unavowed, Technobabylon and writer/designer Richard Cobbett (Sunless Sea/Sunless Skies, The Long Journey Home). The initial concept for the game came when working on Sunless Skies and dreaming of seeing that calibre of interactive fiction merged with the atmosphere of some of his favourite urban-fantasy books and games, in particular 2004's Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines... and then deciding he wanted to play that new game far too much to just leave the idea sitting in the mental "What If?" folder. Welcome to the mean streets of a city grudgingly trying to show that humans and vampires can live together, despite the cynicism and conspiracies raging on both sides. It's a place of bleak horror and dark humour, filled with monsters who don't all have fangs and a thirst for blood, and featuring new stories down every dark alley. What part will you play, and how will you turn a newly awakened world to your advantage. This is a mix of story-driven RPG and undead life-simulation, where every decision you make is another move in your chess game against the world. Invest your time into learning new skills or honing your fighting style as you uncover the city's mysteries and venture deep into its darkest secrets. Gather fellow outcasts to your side, binding them with favours and choosing when to cash in. Manage your eternal thirst, legitimately, or balancing the risks of being caught stalking unwary victims and working the black markets. And of course, what would a vampire be without a few secret powers? Choose from a range of dark Gifts, including Corpse-Talking, Tenebraean Form and Mesmerise. Be careful to hide all evidence of them from the authorites, while keeping them ready as your ace in the hole. Embrace your vampire side, sprinkle a little cinnamon in your blood to handle that pesky iron aftertaste, and get ready to live the nocturnal nine-to-five. Structurally, think a freeform RPG core, with stories branching off it - some funny, some tragic, some horrific - where your decisions are always bleeding together. Get caught lying too often and your untrustworthy reputation will follow you around, while raising suspicion will draw the attention of first mortal, and then darker authorities. Do you, for instance, break a window and hurriedly search a crime scene while the alarms wail, pick the lock and explore at your leisure, or use vampire powers to impersonate the security guard and walk right in? The choice is yours, and all part of learning the beat of the city, developing new skills, and building up favours and contacts to help seize the day by the throat. | ||

Discover the completely different cultures and landscapes, ranging from a densely developed forest of skyscrapers and a green and luscious habitat covered in plant life to a world governed by five witches, or one ruled by vampires - just to name a few of the distinct settings. An Eclectic Cast of Protagonists: Six leading characters, all from diverse backgrounds and with vastly different goals, set out on their journey in five unique story arcs. They venture to the myriad of worlds for their very own personal reasons: One, a human on a mission to protect the barrier defending his city; another, a witch trying to regain her lost magic while maintaining her disguise as a schoolgirl; and yet another, a vampire lord out to regain his crown and reclaim the throne as the rightful king of his world. Even selecting the same protagonist for a second - or third or fourth--playthrough will lead to completely new events and stories, a completely fresh path and experience. A Story of Your Very Own Making: this has the greatest number of branching plots of any game in the SaGa series. The story branches abundantly depending on your choices and actions. Every time you visit a world, the story will evolve, allowing the protagonist and player alike to discover new possibilities. As the story unfolds in this way it becomes a tale all of your own, not only affecting the path you walk but also the multiple potential endings that await each protagonist. Battles where a Single Choice Can Change Everything: this further refines the highly strategic Timeline Battles the SaGa franchise has been long renowned for. With series mainstays such as the skill to spontaneously acquire abilities through the Glimmer system, tactical ally placement known as Formations, and United Attacks that enable individual skills to connect together to form devastating chain attacks, it offers the best iteration of SaGa's turn-based combat to date. The new combat system adds more drama than ever before, allowing you to support party members, interrupt enemy actions, and use United Attacks by strategically manipulating the order of ally actions. The characters that join you, the weapons you wield, your party formation, and your tactics in battle - everything is up to you. | ||

Release Date: TBA This is a next-gen action-adventure RPG that fuses elements of Buddhism with souls-like gameplay - challenging players to meditate on their philosophy, life and death to help them find meaning through discourse, conflict and exploration. It's a souls-like that challenges players to meditate on overcoming loss, failure and death through a core mechanic of reincarnation as 9 different avatars. The game is a 3D, third-person, action role-playing game (RPG) in the vein of the ‘Soulsborne’ (FromSoftware, 2009-2019) genre/series, taking cues from the older, shorter but still epic action-adventure game, Shadow of the Colossus (Team Ico, 2006-2018). In Buddhism, Saṃsāra is the cycle of death and rebirth to which all life is bound. The players goal is to find a way to escape this cyclic existence, to escape Samsara. They will achieve this through discourse, conflict and exploration within the beautiful, deadly and dynamic Desire Realm (Kāmadhātu). Core gameplay pillars include: Conflict - physical, ranged and magical combat encounters with NPC’s who become enemies depending on which avatar form the player assumes; Discourse - impactful, choice-based narratives delivered by cryptic, resolute and wandering NPC’s who are partially based on historical characters and represent Buddhist, Stoic and Daoist worldviews; Exploration - uncovering ancient secrets and witnessing spectacular vistas, the player will traverse the Desire Realm: from the isolated circular edge of the Cakravāḍa mountains that encompass the world; across the Four Great Continents of scorching sand, glistening ice, dense tropics and serene lakes, to their penultimate destination; ascending the sacred five-peaked heights of Mt. Meru to reach the Gods domain, or descending beneath to the fiery, dark, gold-laden root of the world where demons reign. | ||
