In the mood for something text-based?

Hey guys! Remember Whalenought Studios‘ game Isle of Bxnes? (I mean, you should–I only posted about it just a few short months ago.) In case you don’t: Isle of Bxnes is a Stone Age Diablo-alike with a highly stylized pixel art aesthetic and a brutish primeval setting. The premise: Survive the brutal trek east with […]

Word reaches me that Singaporean developers Softnetix Entertainment are hard at work on an episodic 3D action RPG. The first episode is called Dimiria: The Agrarian Falls.
