New and Upcoming Indie Game Releases
-
Twitter account for Dead Static Drive, a "Grand Theft Cthulhu" game. Just found out about this, it looks pretty cool.
-
A good amount of new trailers from the China Joy event, this one in particular looks really interesting to me.

-
From the creators of Furi. This new thing's the opposite of that though.
"We wanted to give players a moment of peace and relaxation between Furi and Persona 5 or some other game that is very long and demanding."

Didn't know this already came out a few days ago... Been waiting for it since Blood's impressions during E3 2016.

That's because Epic Games Store stole it as an exclusive, even though it has been listed on the Steam store for half a decade. My wishlist date for it was actually 5 years ago, but now I get to wait another year because of Epic nonsense. Fuck the Epic Game Store.

@mbun It's not stealing if you pay for it ;)

@axel Doesn't make me feel any better that they're strongarming indie devs with guaranteed money checks to strongarm users to be forced to buy games on their store, even when they were previously advertised on other platforms that are now shifted a year after launch because money.
That is to say, they didn't actually pay for the development of this game. They just spotted a promising indie game nearing completion and swooped in to buy an exclusivity deal with a dev that is of course going to take a check to make sure their new game has at least some returns for them.

Stongarming people with money is called capitalism

Don't have a good PC so I can't check this out for myself, but the trailers and screenshots look great.

@bam541 Saw that too but it's hard to tell what the actual gameplay is like. I'll keep an eye on it!

Not sure if anyone else has been keeping tabs on this or not, but I recently played through the demo (free on Steam) after I beat Disco Elysium, and thought it was really well done.
