Your inner ‘protective instincts’ will certainly be played on as you help Moonchild survive the journey from baby to adolescent.Jon Heder: Doug TenNapel is a friend of mine and he’s super talented. It’s an artistically beautiful game (yes it’s won awards for its art too!) with puzzles and treacherous enemies to defeat. All I can say is just be nice to the sheep.įrom fledgling Brazilian indie studio Swordtales, comes a dark fantasy adventure in which you have to guide a lonely child as she climbs the tower known as Toren. It’s hard to imagine that two guys from Holland put this tactical RPG game together in just two years, by themselves! But they did, and it’s a big world of magic, colliding with Viking themes and hours upon hours of adventuring.
It’s a classic and one that has made a mark in video game history already. If you like turn-based strategy games or Vikings (or both) and appreciate stunning old school style 2D animation, this is definitely worth checking out. The quality bar has been set! With several awards already under its belt and a second chapter already in the works, this indie hit is making its way to PlayStation 4. Supported by a quirky but quite mesmerising original soundtrack from Terry Taylor, Armikrog will throw you into a rich, colourful world packed with loveable oddball characters and a lot of toilet humour. This is just a really weird way to make a game, but it works! From the original game creators of Earthworm Jim and the Neverhood, comes a point and click adventure…wait for it… stop motion clay animation video game (try and say that 10 times quickly!). Each one is unique in its own right: Armikrog Yes, that’s YOU lot! We are beyond excited to tell you about a few games that will be coming to PlayStation 4 in early 2015.
Versus Evil is a like-minded indie publisher who has been lucky enough to partner with several of these talented studios, to help them launch their ‘babies’ into the big, wide, rabid world of gamers. You can’t blame them, it’s a lot more motivating to work around the clock on a game that YOU believe in and that YOU have control of, rather than a faceless senior exec, but man, it’s a big risk. These talented and brave ‘indie warriors’ have thrown all caution to the wind, leaving well paid jobs to develop games they’ve personally been wanting to make for years – without anyone dictating to them about what to do and how to do it. If you haven’t been hiding under a rock for the last two or three years you’ll have noticed that there’s an underground movement in the world of video games, a movement that has been driven by the talented AAA developers who have become fed up of big corporate development environments and being told what to do.
