Happy Friday, everyone! As a special treat, I bring to you a new episode of IndieRPGs.com Checks Out, this time having a peek at the moody, atmospheric Zelda-alike Anodyne (previously covered here). Sean Hogan, one of the game’s developers, updated the official demo yesterday in anticipation of Anodyne’s planned release on February 4th; I’ve been […]

Last Spring, you may recall me having posted about Legends of Eisenwald, a King’s Bounty-style RPG by Aterdux Entertainment with castles, garrisons and turn-based tactical battles. LoE was more than 2 years into development at that time, and was well on its way to raising what would turn out to be more than $83,000 on […]

Flip down the fold-out seats and put your drinks in the armrest cup-holders, folks: it’s time for another movie night! (Given that it’s Thanksgiving, I hope you’ll forgive me for offering this in place of a legit story–I’m just running off to dinner with the family now. Enjoy, and we’ll be back to our regular […]

After writing about His Dark Majesty a few days ago, I felt compelled to check the game out. It took some doing, but I finally got FRAPS to play nice with the game so I could show my first impressions playing it. Have a look: All in all, it’s pretty impressive for something running on […]

I’ve been wanting to check out The Battle for Wesnoth for quite some time; over this past weekend, I finally indulged myself and recorded my first impressions as I did. This video shows the first two battles in the South Guard campaign. You can find more of my thoughts on the game here.

Greg Lobanov (a.k.a. Banov) was good enough to provide me with a pre-release beta build of his upcoming jRPG spookfest Phantasmaburbia, and so I did what I usually do when developers give me early access: I scoped the game out and made a video! Click below to get a special sneak peek: Phantasmaburbia is due […]

Along with last week’s announcement that Cardinal Quest 2 is on the way, developer Ruari O’Sullivan was good enough to give me a pre-release beta build of the game for me to check out. Below, you can see my first (and bar a few hiccups, surprisingly successful) attempt at playing as a thief. Check it […]

With the recent release of an alpha demo for Underrail, I decided to go ahead and give the game a shot. It took a bit of tinkering to get it working*, but I did, and recorded my first impressions playing the game. Check it out: The short of it: if you liked Fallout and Fallout […]

Silence those cell phones and hunker down, folks–it’s time for another movie night! (Or at least, it will be, once it gets to be…you know…night.) Today, we have a brand-new video from Kot-in-Action of their first-person action roguelike Tomes of Mephistopheles (previously covered here), as well as a video update showing the latest build of […]
