The Flame in The Flood out now

by

The kickstarter funded game is officially out of early access on Steam and the final version is live now on Xbox One, PC (steam) and Mac. The game has been developed by The Molasses Flood consisting of triple-A veterans from studios like Irrational (Bioshock), Harmonix (Rock Band) and Bungie (Halo).

The Flame in the Flood is a rogue-lite game where Scout the protagonist has to survive the natural elements and dangers all the while managing various meters like energy, thirst and warmth. Any meter reaching 0 will lead to death which is permanent making the player restart the journey although there is a less hardcore mode present that allows for checkpoints. The only help comes from a companion dog called Aesop who can sense danger and find supplies.

Set in a post-societal America, the majority of gameplay takes place navigating the riverside and making pitstops on islands along the way to gather resources.

Expect a review from us early next week.

SUPERHOT launching on February 25

by

Kickstarter success story SUPERHOT releases on February 25 for PC, OSX and Linux on Steam. The game is a FPS (first-person shooter) with a twist – time moves only when the player moves. The rest of the time everything slows down to a crawl making you think and plan your next move. Gameplay can be simply boiled down to 2 things – kill or be killed.

Superhot evolved from a prototype in 2013 which received much acclaim pushing the creators to develop a fully fleshed game based on the concept. The game was funded in less than a day on Kickstarter and raised over $250,000 by the end of the campaign.

Expect a review for the PC version from us by the end of the week.
