[News] Lone Survivor Coming to PS3/Vita

Jasper Byrne’s Superflat Games blog has announced that his fantastic game Lone Survivor will be re-coded from the ground up (by Curve Studios) for the PlayStation 3 and Vita, bringing its unique sense of dread, horror, and absurdity to an entirely new audience. Sony has been showing an initiative to get smaller, more interesting games on its platform, so there’s no surprise they’d be interested in this indie gem. I can see this being a great game to sit [...]

[News] Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs trailer out, plus, they want your fear

The sequel to Amnesia: The Dark Descent, Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs looks like it will provide the same pants-soiling sleep-disturbing horror that its predecessor did. The Chinese Room, the new devs, released a trailer today for the anticipated release (at a suitable time I might add). The game is set sixty years after the previous one in Victorian London, a setting rife with class struggles railways, and…pigs? If we can discern anything from the trailer, it seems that the word [...]

[News] Play Cave Story + Now For a Special Halloween Update

For anybody booting up their Steam copy of Cave Story +, you might be in for a bit of a Halloween Surprise. This update is similar to the Wiiware update that the game received, but since this is Cave Story’s first Halloween on Steam, that makes this a new experience for the PC players out there. I’d hate to ruin the rest of what the game has to offer today, so I’ll keep quiet on the game changes. If you [...]

[News] Cherry Tree High Comedy Club Coming to Steam

I don’t know if you remember but a couple of months ago saw the release of a very charming game that I had the pleasure of reviewing here.

It was announced today that Cherry Tree High Comedy Club will be coming to Steam November 8th for $7.99 USD. If [...]

[News] Nyu-Media Brings Fairy Bloom Freesia to Steam

Nyu-Media will be releasing the last of their first slate titles with Fairy Bloom Freesia on Steam. The game is a 2.5D beat-em-up and you play as an adorable little fairy that kicks some serious butt. No seriously, she can probably take you down. I’m talking downtown!…she’s strong is the point I’m trying to get at. I’ve had some hands on time with this title and I have to say that it’s a fully fledged, deep, beat-em-up with combos, magic, [...]

[News] Pid Comes to XBLA and Steam October 31

One of our favorite titles from PAX this year was a little platformer titled Pid. It’s a wonderful game that plays as great as it looks…and quite difficult actually. Well Pid is set to release October 31st for Xbox Live Arcade and Steam for 800 Microsoft points (or $9.99). No word on an exact PSN release but it’s set for sometime later this year. I really enjoyed my time with Pid and I’ll be definitely picking this up when it [...]
