PREVIEWS
To Leave is one of the neatest games I played during GDC – Steven Hansen
The progression is glorious. This isn't Super Meat Boy sort of rapid repetition that encourages white knuckle runs as fun POE currency trade . These white knuckle runs can send you back to the beginning of the game. Now, there are checkpoints of sort in the world. You're not replaying the whole game after each death, but it's a tense set up and that sees you failing early and often. And then you keep on keeping on, getting better at wresting yourself from the slop.
Barkley 2 developers hope to release in late 2014 – Alessandro Fillari
Combat now takes place in real time. X114JAM9 can amass an arsenal of guns that all have unique properties and special attacks. For instance, during my brief period of play, I acquired a 3D printed machine gun that fired bullets that returnedto me after hitting its mark for health recovery bonuses. In addition to that, an enemy dropped a flintlock pistol that fired shotsin a short360 degree radius. The developers claim that the game features procedurally generated weapons, and players can even customize and create their own weapons after finding the necessary parts.
Grey Goo aspires to get to the roots of the real-time strategy genre – Brettt Makedonski
Petroglyph hopes to get back to the golden age of RTS games with Grey Goo, and that might happen by creating something that's supremely different. Balanced gameplay, three unique factions, and putting an emphasis on strategy rather than real-time is the technique that Petroglyph's going to employ. That's crazy enough to work, because out of the gate, it's poised to be a game that's endearing to fans of the genre.
Hyper Light Drifter is gorgeous and punishing – Alessandro Fillari
Heart Machine wasn't shyabout sharing its influences. The Legend of Zelda, Diablo,and even the more modernPhantasy Star Onlinehave been amassive influence on the gameplay aesthetic and makeup. It is a skill based game that focuses more on player reflex POE goods , timing, and quick thinking. While the staples of RPG gameplay are present, such as character growth and stat boosts, the game is about skill at heart.
