The full listing of games within the Steam Game Festival, Summer Edition just isn’t but confirmed however fairly a couple of have already introduced their participation. Just a few games have caught my eye.
Pendragon, the Arthurian turn-based strategy RPG from Inkle, the makers of 80 Days and Heaven’s Vault. Windjammers 2, the sequel to a cult favorite Neo Geo frisbee battle game. Genesis Noir, the surreal metaphysical adventure game about saving your love from the Big Bang of a god’s gunshot. Fights In Tight Spaces, the turn-based tactical deckbuilding brawler about fights with slick motion film fashion. Starmancer, the strat-o-sim taking part in as an area station’s AI overlord who can care for his or her people or dwell out grand ambitions of domination. The Iron Oath, the turn-based tactical RPG a couple of merc firm throughout many years and centuries. Monster Crown, the Pokémon-ish throwback RPG. That’s solely a handful.
Some demos, like Genesis Noir, went dwell slightly early as part of Guerrilla Collective events. The relaxation (and I’m nonetheless not solely positive how large will probably be – past “probably big?”) shall be up here at 6, then principally vanish when the occasion ends.
The RPS VidBuds shall be taking part in Stegafesumed demos from 7-9pm dwell tonight (11am-1pm Pacific):
You can see a few of the devchats, Q&As, and different bits coming on this Steam page, which frustratingly glitches a complete lot for me as I scroll. Not each game internet hosting an occasion may have a demo, thoughts.
