Irongate Arena

Irongate Arena

Continue your family legacy into new and exotic lands, but first prove yourself a worthy commander to the men who have pledged fealty to you. Battle in the proving grounds where humans are not the only fighters trying to knock you on your ass! Will your reward be glory or death?

If you have the strength, journey through the desert where if the heat doesn’t kill you, something or someone venomous just may. If you have the will of a warrior those deadly and toxic creatures may join you and take up your cause of vengeance.

To make it in the harsh, icy, North you must be a wise in deploying the right strategies to defeat your enemies in the Arena. Vikings, elves and witches can be so cold, but not cold enough to turn down a little coin to join your ranks, if the price is right.

Put your team skills to the test and push their limits in order to survive the Inferno. Hotter than Hades itself only the most vile creatures dwell here, along with the strongest arena fighters. If fear has not run your men out, then you may stand a chance, otherwise see yourself cut down by powerful beings capable of wielding great strength and abilities.

You must have strategic cunning when facing Lord Asshat, so that you may reclaim honor to your surname. Will your become the champion your father was or will you fall before your enemies?

Tales From Evenfall

Tales From Evenfall

This game is quite beautiful and relaxing. It has an ok story, with some funny references, and I liked the mechanics since we have the option to move our characters on the keyboard. My only issue with it is that I experienced some bugs, nothing too serious, but one of them was that even though I completed my quest it showed as incomplete, and I had to figure out what to do next by guessing, so sometimes I got stuck. Since the game is pretty new it’ll probably be fixed soon, so I didn’t mind it too much, I think this game has great potential to be a very fun and enjoyable experience, hope the developers keep updating it so we’ll have more things to explore.

E.X.P.L.O.R.™: A New World

E.X.P.L.O.R.™: A New World

Really cool and fun dungeon crawler.

The visuals and interfaces are clean and easy to understand. Gamepad support is great and many details like targetting, minimap edge markers and item comparison are just done so well, you really get a sense fort he dev’s passion for this project.

I hope to see more from this dev and I relly hope that this game gets the attention it deserves.

An interesting little blobber.

“E.X.P.L.O.R…” is a true labor of love from developer Beem media. If you’ve played any other classic blobbers (EOB, Might and Magic, Grimrock, etc) you’ll get the picture pretty quickly. Some things that set E.X.P.L.O.R…apart are that it is a much faster playing type game. No grinding, no heavy stat management, no 100+ NPC’s to keep track of. It’s a fairly light playing game, but a good choice if you are in between epic RPG’s and want something a bit quicker to play in between. The gameplay and graphics are much nicer looking in the actual game then what the trailer video depicts. Visually, it’s a hybrid of a cartoony-comic style and traced looking caricatures. I’d say the closest comparison would be to “Sword and Sorcery”, but much simpler gameplay. Progression seems to be fairly quick in the game and will keep you playing a while without getting bored. As I’ve gotten older, incessant grinding has been a turn-off for me in games. “E.X.P.L.O.R…” does a good job of mitigating that problem.

Abomi Nation

Abomi Nation

I’m still in the midst of my first run, but I adore the charm this game has. The combat is very enjoyable, and there’s a decent challenge even on the normal difficulty setting. A big selling point is just how customized you can make each run. Difficulty, permadeath, which Abomi join you, all of it can be influenced at the start of a new run, and the game very much encourages you to play it multiple times. No two runs are going to be the same!

The cutesy style of the game greatly contrasts with just how dark this game can get sometimes, though. There’s regular references to death, dying and killing, and your team members actually talk about it when somebody dies. It’s not the most complicated game - if you’ve played any recent Pokemon title, you’ll grasp this game pretty easily - but it’s good fun, and each trek on the island is a brand new adventure. I’m very impressed that this was mostly made by one person! And we’re getting new Abomis every now and then, too, which adds to the fun! I do look forward to what might get added to the game in the future, but for now, I think I’m going to go ahead and hop back in!

A good concept for a game but poor execution. The design aesthetic itself is not a problem, but the naming conventions and designs are… inconsistent and kinda cheesy. The gameplay is slow and the framerate is bad so the game feels like it takes forever while you’re not even accomplishing much. Fights are very matchup dependent which means they snowball based on who is your lead Abomi and the typing chart is unique so you really need to learn it before you attempt the game seriously. The UI is kind of shoddy and requires a lot of button presses and doesn’t allow for mouse/keyboard play which is odd for a game released for PC.

Would definately call this a game with a lot of fun ideas mixed into it. The tutorial is both relaxed and not information overload, and even if you accidentally skip a tutorial, you can probably work out whats going on (hint: dont skip the adventure one like I accidentally did!). Developer is currently responsive and it seems will be making changes so even though the game is pretty solid, with a few small non-gameplay breaking quirks, I anticipate very good things for this game soon.

The game is buggy and missing tooltips. The gameplay is extremely RNG heavy and unbalanced making the game unplayable without giving you a clue what you might be doing wrong or how to fix it.

The game appears to give you a massive amount of space to build in but the vast majority of that space actually can’t be built on.

  1. First of all, the energy system is very annoying. You have to wait for energy for everything and the fast forward doesn’t work. This makes trying to figure out the extremely poorly documented features an exercise in frustration because the buildings aren’t expensive but require energy which discourages exploration.

Contingency Creatures

Contingency Creatures

A PvP indie pixel-art monster battler with a unique approach to turn-based combat. Choose your moves 3 turns ahead… and create a “Plan B” for if things go wrong! Will you wield your contingency plans to create ambiguous multi-layered strategies, or to fortify a brute-force offense?

Choose from a diverse pool of Creatures, each with their own unique attacks and animations, to build a team that suits your preferences. Then go head-to-head against other players online.

This game’s system is unique in that players must publicly declare their moves up to 3 turns in advance. However, what a player says they’re going to do might not match their real intentions – with “Contingency Plans,” a player can make secret modifications to their publicly-stated orders that only take effect if certain conditions are met! The key to victory is to thwart the opponent’s publicly-declared moves while trying not to inadvertently trigger their Contingency Plans.
