Volseons
Volseons is an RPG/turn-based combat type of game set in a land-locked country called Dynanzium. Take the role of Lerdstrat, one of king’s most loyal servants, as an opposing faction sets him up for the assassination attempt at king’s life. Use powerful monsters known as “Volseons” and venture around the world in search of redemption and truth.
Being creatures of immense power over the elements of the world, Humanity has found many ways to manipulate and control them in order to build up their civilisations and advance technology, while also using their power to wage war with other human factions.
Features:
-
Journey through a prologue story arc which sets the tone and backstory of the main game (planned for release in 2019).
-
Fight and Capture multiple unique Volseons, all with their own traits. (With a lot more Volseons to come!)
-
Challenge powerful opponents as you take on a slew of difficult enemy teams where your strategy will be awarded.
Our story
We are proud to be here with our first major game that we want to continue developing. Currently, we made this prologue as a proving grounds of our idea as a side project in our free time. Next up, we want to get to the next level: going full-time developers, and for that, we need help!
For our planned developments for Volseons, please see below.
Planned features for Volseons:
-
Detailed character arcs over six story epics. Following a number of characters across the world of Dynanzium, in Volseons you are not simply playing one character or one party of characters, you will instead experience intricate stories of multiple characters from different civilisations and factions as they interact and wage war with each other, seeing the good and bad in every major character instead of seeing characters as one note heroes and villains.
-
Five epic regions to explore and beyond… in ONE game! In 2000, Pokemon Gold featured two existing regions to explore which certainly made the game feel really epic. Unfortunately, as Pokemon games expanded and spread across multiple cartridges and games consoles, players cannot visit these old areas on the later versions of the game. We have built a structure which will allow us to release new regions, areas, Volseons etc into the base game, allowing players the freedom to go back to the old regions and as well as to allow us to update the old regions with new content, allowing us to make a true expansive and epic world.
-
Six years of planned content. Volseons, by nature are adaptive, growing beasts. Our game will reflect this as we release a steady flow of content over the next six years. We plan to release each story epic around a year apart from the last one, each epic will come with a new region to explore with the exception of the last one… which will be something truly special. In addition, we will release additional features and balance adjustments to the game periodically.
-
The progress of this prologue will transfer to the main game, this prologue will give players an early opportunity to give us feedback for improvements of the main game as well as allowing early adopters to capture some rare Volseons for later use!
-
A whole encyclopedia of monsters (that we call the “Necromonium”), with around 30 Volseons already in game with their own unique passive ability and typing combinations which gives each Volseon it’s own unique flavour. In addition, each Volseon has their own expansive moves pool. Volseons will be released regularly in each major update and may also be released in events.
-
Truly challenging content. We are creating a strategy RPG that will have meaningful difficulty settings and optional challenge modes. For an example of this difficulty, a boss fight on a higher difficulty setting will use drastically different Volseon team compositions that are made to challenge the player much more than the normal difficulty, no inflated stats rubbish here!
-
Challenge modes will introduce additional challenges such as introducing permanent death to your Volseons if they are defeated or restricting the amount of Volseons you can capture and use like a “Nuzlocke”. Many more challenge modes will also be included that will give hardcore players very meaningful feats to accomplish.

Cat’s Menace
This game was a lot of fun to play in front of my stream audience, however playing it by myself without friends would have been a rather miserable experience, I’m afraid. The game has no save or checkpoint system, so when you have a Game Over, you have to start the entire game over from the beginning. The game operates by having you assign a cat to a task and making choices to decide whether the cats succeed or fail in the mission. The choices have no logic behind them, so it’s a coin flip in deciding if you lose the cat you assigned or not. Also, it doesn’t seem to matter which cats you assign to the mission. They’re essentially just very cute life counters.
– Real player with 2.1 hrs in game
So, I’m going to be honest and say, I LOVE CATS…
Now, when I then looked at the “Similar to games you’ve played: The Witcher 3 and Portal 2” I was ready for this game to BLOW. MY. MIND.
Spoiler alert: It did not…
The other reviews are spot on:
-
English translation is bad, even to the point where some things doesn’t make sense
-
It’s game over pretty easily and you have no idea what would be the right answer to the events you’re prompted with
-
When you get a game over, you start over from the beginning - so it becomes a pattern of blindly guessing what’s right and having to remember every right answer to get further in the game. Which gets boring and annoying very fast.

Beautiful Sound Design by Disasterpeace! (FEZ)
Mental Hospital VR
I really really enjoyed this. Very spooky. Very horrible. One for more hard core horror fans.
Word of warning though. There is no strafe, which makes movement feel odd. Also, needs a brightness slider for the V Pro 2.

The game is really good and has so far been the most scary game I played.
The graphics and immersion is great and so is the sound.
For the bad things. the walking is based on head orientation instead of hand.
I disliked some levels where you had to go back and forth to progress the story, mainly the last level in the mansion.

Labyrinth City: Pierre the Maze Detective
Labyrinth City: Pierre the Maze Detective is such a charming casual game. It’s quite obvious that the game takes its influence from the popular “Where’s Waldo"series of books. However; there’s not a lot of similarities beyond the graphics here.. but I found it to be a good progression from a particular book style to an interactive video game. Labyrinth City keeps your eyes peeled and is a great way to relax for a few hours. It adds puzzles and extraordinary detail to the environment (maze) you’re walking through without tearing your brain apart trying to figure stuff out. There’s a relaxing quality to the game… almost therapeutic. There’s so many things happening if you just observe.
