The Otterman Empire
I found this game lots of fun to play, especially with a few friends.
The game is simple enough to learn which makes it great for a quick party game.
The visuals are pleasing to look at with several cool locations and a selection of quirky and unique characters (including a few non-otters) to pick from, my favourite being the otter “Lyra”.
Each character has their own abilities and attacks to keep gameplay feeling fresh, some abilities are really cool like “Noah” who bombards a target are with fish. Its all very fun.

I’ve been following this game for a couple of years now and had the pleasure of playing it at different stages throughout it’s development at events organised by the creators, so it’s great to see it released! It’s great to be playing it at home! Now I just need to make some friends and for C19 to disappear so I can enjoy the local multiplayer to it’s fullest!
I’ve not played any split-screen multiplayer since buying it, but that’s mainly because of what I just said, and because I already know that part of the game is awesome! No doubt I’ll be playing some split-screen soon though! I just needed to get some practice in before playing against the girlfriend. I’d never hear the end of it if she beat me :P

Animal Rivals: Up In The Air
Animal Rivals: Up In The Air is a party game with ridiculous graphics. The game will let you dive into racing courses set in the air. Invite your friends and get together into the addictive quadratic animals world!
The game will offer over 100 customizable parts for you to create the most unique airplane this world has ever seen. This is not the end though – every item will have its affect on the airplane, by changing its statistics like speed, braking or turn values, but if you don’t like to sacrifice this gorgeous propeller for the more powerful one you can simply turn off the statistics before a match!
You will have an opportunity to choose between 9 animal characters. Each one of them will have its own special weapon not available for the others. Choose between predators like the shark, the tiger, the lazy lion or the muscular rat. You can also choose some clumsy hippo, crab or crocodile, but this is not everything - we have got you covered with some sleepy tortoise and even the gangsta pig!
Enjoy the game by playing with AI or bring the friends of yours by playing in local multiplayer mode. You can play up to 4 players locally to find out who is the best pilot in your room!
Not getting enough challenge by playing locally? Try the online multiplayer with up to 8 players fighting for the best pilot title! Show them who is the best!
The game will consist of 5 game modes:
-

Brimstone Brawlers - Early Access
Very promising game!
The game is beautiful, really good gameplay mechanics, nice rythm, interesting characters, this is a lot of fun no matter if you want to play it casually or if you want competitivity, both works really good!
Almost single developer so it’ll take a bit of time to reach its full potential but nothing can go wrong with so much passion! Dev is actually really active to take all the feedback from players (i’d say everyday) and really efficient so this is really reassuring to see that :).

I am not one to leave reviews, but this indie game really struck me.
I currently have a little over 5 hours in this game and I simply can not get enough and am pleasantly shocked by how much this game has to offer from replayability and skill cap ceilings. Talk about being competitive and enriching, every character has their own unique playstyle and combos that allow you to try to perform and perfect yet such a simple idea that I was able to pick up on the concepts immediately and over time have found out more and more things as I played, making me feel like I am growing with the game which is always incredibly fun.
