They’re seeking Kickstarter funding to translate three of their best-sellers for the English-speaking world. The books…
Last week the prospect of a new crowdfunded 3D platformer filled me with joy. It was called Griff: The Winged Lion, but it wasn’t doing well on Indiegogo. Over at least a couple of days, it didn’t collect a single penny. In a bizarre twist,…
Cooperative puzzle games can be fun, assuming you have someone clever to play with. Luckily, a new puzzle-platformer offers co-op, but lets you go it alone if you feel up to the task. The Rabbit and The Owl is a negative space puzzle game on…
Every once in a while, we like to bring your attention to games which have yet to land on Kickstarter’s perilous shores. Those are usually somewhat unpopular, a bit crude and wildly ambitious. Yet, things are a bit different when it comes to Lost Ember, an upcoming story-driven exploration…
Delays for Kickstarter video game projects aren’t uncommon, in fact they’re almost expected. So it’s no huge surprise that the release date for Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night has been pushed back from March 2017 to the first half of 2018. What is more notable…

Imagine a world made entirely out of wool, fabric, and cotton. It’s bright and colorful, yet full of danger and secrets. This is the kind of world that Woven, a new game on Kickstarter, hopes to share with you. Woven is a puzzle adventure game…

Last year I fell in love with Dropsy, a tale about a clown that just wants to make friends. Well, Jay Tholen is back with a Cyberpunk themed game called Hypnospace Outlaw. As a fan of games dealing with cyberspace, I just had to check…
I’m usually fine with seeing a game developer make a small cameo in one of their titles. I’ve actually liked seeing these little “easter eggs” pop up from time to time. However, rarely do I see one actually featuring several as playable characters. With Dawn…
