The Week of February 24 2019



An exciting platform game, filled with action, skill, wits and competition that hides a secret inside: A powerful editor that you can use to create your own adventures… and by adventures we don’t mean simple levels… We mean full campaigns, with their world map, NPC’s and your own unique story!

Shadowland is a game in which you play as a shadow that has to scape a gray and empty world. Where are you? How did you get there? How can you escape? Who is this voice talking to you? Shadowland won't give you the answer to any of this questions, but you might find some of your own.

Hide in the shadows, cloak to become invisible and ambush your enemies. Focus to slow down time, dodge bullets and move with superhuman speed. Placeholder Name - more details coming soon.

Run For Cover is a mix between XCOM and FTL. You control a team of soldiers trying to escape enemy territory after a mission gone wrong. The team is chased by the enemy and forced to just keep moving. Tough choices are guaranteed. Think of turn-based battles in a procedurally generated world where the map is constantly expanded as you fight your way through it. Your soldiers gain experience with every step they take and unlock powerful abilities. The game is currently in early development and features a basic set of skills and multiple randomly generated areas.

Get ready for an open-world space action single-player RPG. Enter the cockpit of wisecracking, hero Captain Jonathan Bold as he travels the vast universe of Starpoint Gemini 3.
