Blowing through a bunch of sick Next Fest Demos. Despite the crash in big name gaming I think the future looks bright, judging by the massive amounts of ideas for games.
Just to start with: Final sentence is pretty funny, a battle royale typing game is pretty clever and they dress it up kinda like Buckshot Roulette or the like. Kinda unbalanced if you end up in a game with just a really good typist lol.
-Death in abyss gives vague impressions of Star Fox 64 except it comes in a underwater horror vibe as you play as a sort of deep sea combat drone on a mission to cleanse the sea of beastie monsters. Kinda sparse for a demo but played pretty fun and I like to see people pick up old game styles where the big name devs have left them several iterations ago.
-The Yapyap demo is fun, 4 player co-op slop where you play as a mischievous little magic fella who is meant to vandalize some bum mage's tower using wacky spell infused wands. You can find a wand that works like the piss stream back in ye olde Conkers Bad Fur Day.
-Tears of Metal is a northern European/Scottish themed Dynasty warriors expy with a cool art style, kinda slow and I didn't play it much but it seems promising.
-Fat Goblins is a new version of Fat Princess, only goblin themed. Basically a team based CTF game where the flag is actually a rotund princess who your team can feed to make them bigger and thus, harder for the opponents to capture.
Besides that me and the lads have picked up Sniper Elite 4 so we can get on some wholesome WW2 Nazi balls shooting. It's kinda funny, but I kinda wish we had more WW2 games, I'm in a mood that Company of Heroes 2's terrible campaign can't fix.
