The Floor is Jelly (IGF 2012 Trailer)

There a two types of people in this world. Those who think filling a swimming pool full of jelly would be awesome and those who think it would be a pointless messy waste.It would seem Ian Snyder falls into the former category as he is currently working on a fun looking platform game titled The Floor is Jelly. Check out this slightly old trailer , and don't get too jelly that you don't have it yet.

Aftershock Level 1 Work in Progress

During one of my recent "scouting" missions I came across Aftershock a great looking multiplayer/cooperative racing game being made by liquid rock games. It reminds me of Wipeout /Star Wars Pod Racer/F-Zero and the cooperative element has got my interest really piqued. It is in an early state of development but the video below already looks very promising.

Barrington Plays "Rin's Quest" a 3D Retro Adventure Game

For all those who were asking "When's Barrington's next video coming?" I am delighted to share with you Rin's Quest. Rin's Quest is a top down retro adventure game where you take control of Rin, whose girlfriend has been captured by an Evil Wizard.

Armed with your trusty bow "Alfred" (That's what I named it at least) you'll be fighting your way through hordes of scorpions, slimes and poison mushrooms,Rin's Quest will delight anyone looking for a challenging, nostalgic adventure, I enjoyed this quite a bit considering the controls take a little getting used to, Rin's Quest can be picked up at the Shabby Lords website for only $8.

Incredipede Trailer and Art Update

When I saw this trailer of Incredipede by Northway Games I was instantly a fan.
 Then I found out the art from the video is being overhauled by Thomas Shahan and now
I can't wait to see the finished product.




Pond Gathering by Thomas Shahan

RPG with Robots , Dinosaurs and Zombies needs Fuding Support

From the mouth of the developer - Rainbow Nightmare Libra is a classic overhead RPG dungeon exploring for PC, along with sideview exploration. The game itself is about a Continent engulfed in war with a Machine Empire.

The main story is about a woman who isn't quite perfect. But when her friend has an illness she will do everything she can to find a cure. It sounds easy, but not when she has to travel into the heart of the Neon Empire with an odd assortment of comrades.

I don't have a gimmick or some over-the-top video pleading for your well earned tasty dollar bills. I don't feel like that is required. If my game can't generate your interest with a trailer of physical gameplay and unique designs then it does not deserve a donation.

I just think me in front of a webcam pleading and explaining the project takes away from the game itself.

The Game itself has a long way to go. I assure you all donations will be used for the game. If you want to follow the progress I urge you to follow my Tumblr page. I update regularly.

Preview of Tomes of Mephistopheles alpha 0.4

Tomes of Mephistopheles by Kot-in-Action is a first person dungeon crawling RPG that is in
its early alpha stage of development. It looks to have great potential already and is being updated regularly*. There are plans to add  a load of features including factions , crafting and spell customisation.With multiplayer being implemented in the last patch the potential for fun is definitely large and I recommend heading to the ToM forums to get involved in the discussion and see whats planned next.




*I would advise people to purchase this from Desura instead of the Dev's site just for the convenience of the auto updater , despite it being more expensive.

Burgle


Made for the PEGJam 2012 using Flixel , Burgle is a fun little game by Matt Fox Games where the goal is to steal as much loot as you can from the house and make it out free. To complicate matters, valuables have different weights and Police will turn up on the scene to bust your ass. There are 2 different endings which are reportedly more satisfying than ME3's. Play it yourself here

My Giants - Pokemon meets Starcraft



Some are describing it as Pokemon meets Starcraft , others as DotA for kids. Regardless of how you want to label it , My Giants by Studio Pepwuper is looking interesting even at this early stage of development. The team is in the process of implementing new artwork but this older video below still gives an idea of what to expect.

Slushy_ Plays Hard Reset A Futuristic FPS From the Indie Royale Bundle

Check out my gameplay video of Hard Reset from the latest Indie Royale Bundle. It's like a fun Indie cyberpunk version of Crysis 2 where you can use the physics and environmental hazards to your advantage. There is a stack of unlockable upgrades and the cut scenes remind me of Infamous. TLDR - it's worth buying the bundle just for Hard Reset.

I've been enjoying his commentaries for a while and hope you will too. Check out his first indie game preview of Towns for Slushy_TV.

Barrington Previews "Enola" a Horror Puzzle game developed by The Domaginarium

Enola pronounced (Nwola) is an indiegogo kick starter project which has recently moved into its first Alpha build. Enola, developed by The Domaginarium is a Horror puzzle game which focuses on psychologically scaring the player without the use of monsters. The lead developer spoke about the use of monsters in horror games and believes that there are scarier things than monsters, though Enola is only in its first Alpha build I can see a lot of potential in this game and hope it is completed to the designs of the developer.

You can support Enola and gain access to the Alpha by donating here: http://www.indiegogo.com/Enola

I can't wait for this game to finish and scare the pants of me.
Thanks guys, Barrington out.
