Screenshot Saturday! A day for peering backstage of game growth, not less than insofar as rigorously chosen early peeks of games-in-progress will permit. This week: some NPCs that aren’t pleased with what you’re promoting; a desert match for a car-fight, and a farm that may have extra happening than meets the attention.
Starting off with some grouchy characters from Potionomics, as a result of I actually like how they’re all expressive however in their very own distinctive methods:
“Have you ever wanted to play an RPG about an in-debt witch? I did, so I’m making a game about that,” reads the builders’ pinned tweet. I can’t say I did need that till I learn it, however now I extraordinarily do. I additionally admire the straight ahead ambition of the factor. As effectively as Twitter, you’ll be able to comply with together with the game’s growth on Tumblr, the place there are heaps extra character designs and fairly cauldron belongings, the latter of which I favored sufficient to incorporate because the header picture for this text. (I need one in my home please and thanks.)
Meanwhile, do you ever simply see a picture and realise that you simply’re within the temper to drive off into the desert for just a few days? I simply did.
Actually doing so most likely wouldn’t be so simple in Mileage, which the builders describe on their website as “destruction derby meets Mad Max.” It’s at present in preproduction, however there are extra photographs of graffitied buildings and firey side-swipes to take a peek at as they work.
And after all, it wouldn’t be one thing that I wrote with out some pixel artwork foliage, this time courtesy of Agricultura:
I really like the reflection of the clouds on the pond right here. From the Tumblr linked within the Tweet, Agricultura is a “solarpunk farming sim” wherein protagonist Holly discovers that being a Capsule Farmer for the federal government won’t be as idyllic as she anticipated. But if the federal government promo makes it look as charming as this gif, I can hardly blame her for being taken in.
A bonus to shut this week, from Chasm, a game that’s already out on Steam, as a result of I just like the idea of utilizing Screenshot Saturday to share lower issues which might be worthy of consideration even when they didn’t match into the ultimate game.
