Intriguing, do you have a link? I didnt find a link right away.

I only found a Tumblr: http://dreamfeelx.tumblr.com/

Maybe the blog is the game.

Yeah, the devs improved the art style since then

Played an early alpha demo last year. It's a fun stealth game

 

[One Foul Note]

Shawden, by Frozenbyte.

Hmm, I'll remain on the fence for that one for now. On one hand I do like a bit of stealth cunning action and the time rewind is a positive replacement for quicksave overload. That said, escort missions are really really hard to pull off well and if the game has this strong focus on dragging this npc around and it is not done fantastically then that could be real problematic.

 

[Wok]

It is funny how the game mechanic is the same as SuperHOT (from what I read).

In the demo I played, the girl stayed near the start and you had to go clear the way. It has a faster pace than some other stealth games since you can swing from the rafters with your rope and rewind time to undo mistakes.

Not exactly. It's more Prince of Persia than SuperHOT

Thank you so much!

Hey, talking about SuperHOT, it's finally releasing this week!

And Stardew Valley. And The Flame in the Flood.

Too many games.

 

[One Foul Note]

My brain has been (unknowingly to myself) getting me ready for SuperHOT. I've been playing a bit of Talos Principle lately and nearing its completion has given me a weird craving for more odd FPS games with perhaps a more actionly kick.

 

[grindamasta]

My team is working really hard to finally release our first commercial game on march 2 on Steam Early Access.

Crazy Pixel Streaker - PC, MAc, Linux, PS4, Xbox One

http://store.steampowered.com/app/393460/

Insane brawler with roguelike elements. Streakers run half-naked armed with a water-pistol and other powerful weapons to spread chaos and craziness in the world most famous sports events. Instant fun for up to 4 players.

We’re adding a funding initiative for small narrative game projects.

We’re open-minded on the meaning of ‘narrative’ and ‘game’. So this might include: games with a strong linear storyline; choice-based narratives using Twine or a similar technology; parser-based interactive fiction; strategy games where the choices have a storyful feel; card games where story emerges from the mechanics; or a dozen other things we haven’t thought of.

We particularly like text-centric games. These are often a low-cost, high-leverage way to do something interesting and intelligent with an idea. Text-centric doesn’t mean text-only; but games which involve reading are more our bag.

The usual deal is:
- we take 50% of the revenue from the project until we get back our initial investment
- we take 20% of the revenue from then on
- we get suitable credit/branding in the game
It’s project-based investment, so if we never make back our initial investment, you’re free to get on with your life.

Previously, they helped fund the in-development game A House of Many Doors

I’ve just today released Astro Duel on Steam! It’s a local multiplayer game where you shoot and run over your friends.

Also, I'm super looking forward to SuperHOT. I think it comes out on Thursday? The original demo was a blast, but that new katana action looks incredible.

Friday, the 26th

This week is so good for games. The Tiny Thief spiritual successor Love You To Bits, SuperHOT, Factorio, Blood Alloy: Reborn, We Are The Dwarves, Stardew Valley

And wow, I had been looking for that game on my iPad for a while but couldn't remember the name. Congrats on bringing it to PC!

 

[Rusty]

@More_Badass Ah thanks!

Not sure if y'all are into story games, but Into from animal phase comes out on Thursday too.

 

[More_Badass]

SuperHOT OT is 99% ready to go

And yes, the OT title is exactly what you think it will be

@More_Badass Ah thanks!

That looks pretty interesting, thanks for the heads up

I won't have time or money for all the games this week - Stardew Valley is probably the one for me.

Oh good lord that looks amazingly grotesque. Having just come off Fran Bow's imagery, I'm up for this.

Friday, the 26th

I just saw an advert on RPS that has the 25th labled on it. Good times.

I don't say this much but it was actually quite a cool ad. It was on the mobile version of the site and it only moved the animation when you scrolled the screen up and down. Seemed very fitting for Superhot.

Oh, you're right. Weird, I had seen some places saying the 26th

 

[More_Badass]

I'm loving how fun this game is looking

That needs to become a thing that I can buy.

So that GOTY thread...

 

[One Foul Note]

So that GOTY thread...

I've largely run out of game knowledge to be able to fill them in. Everyone has already done all the games I know. I can write the description for Axiom Verge but beyond that I am really only copying down steam descriptions because I know nothing about most of the games left.

 

[PandaPedinte]

So that GOTY thread...

I already did the games I played, the other ones missing I haven't played.

 

[More_Badass]

Five minutes of SuperHOT endless mode

Most notably, there's a new mechanic centered around jumping that allows players who hold the jump button to descend in super-slow motion, affording you time to pull off some pretty fantastic aerial gunplay. Also of note: The clip ends with a peek at the finalized version of Superhot's built-in replay editor, which lets players edit (and upload) real-time replays of their bullet time antics.

there should be a stage where you play as john wick in the club handing out pure headshots that would be fun to emulate lol
