Alawar Premium is Set to launch their Single Player ‘First Contact,’ on September 19th

The Single Player Version of the Previously Released Multiplayer Game ‘I am Not a Monster’ Will Fully Release on Sept 19th.

I am not a Monster, a title developed by Cheerdealers under the publisher Alawar Premium is set to release their highly anticipated single-player called ‘First Contact’ on September 19th. The new single-player will be a free update for those who own the original multiplayer game, and if new players decide to jump-in this coming “free weekend” going on tomorrow September 6th until the 9th on steam, they’ll luckily get the new single-player update upon release. 

Upon full release, the new single-player campaign edition will feature 8 playable characters (you will play all 8 during the game on different levels), 40 unique levels, and approximately 10 hours of gameplay.

“Captain Laser, a famous hero of space battles, is once again invaded by vicious monsters… he fights them off, protecting all the passengers and starship crew. There’s something different about this battle, though; it just doesn’t feel the same to him; there is more than meets the eye… As the narrative continues, he will soon learn the true nature of these monsters, thus revealing hidden secrets about the other passengers.” – Stanislav Stepchenko, Producer, Cheerdealers

CREA-TURE STUDIOS DROPS NEW SESSION EXTENDED “10 TRICK LINE” SKATEBOARDING GAMEPLAY FOOTAGE

CREA-TURE STUDIOS DROPS NEW SESSION EXTENDED “10 TRICK LINE” SKATEBOARDING GAMEPLAY FOOTAGE

Long-awaited skateboarding game will be available for $19.99 on Sept. 17 via Steam Early Access

MONTREAL Sept. 6, 2019 – creā-ture Studios has released new extended gameplay footage of the upcoming skateboarding game Session. The new video showcases the free flowing nature of the game at the Brooklyn Banks with a sample “line,” several tricks strung together in quick succession. Additionally, several professional skateboarders have recently revealed their involvement with Session, including the likes of Donovan Strain, Dane Burman and Ribs Man.

Session will be available for Windows PC via Steam Early Access for $19.99 on Sept. 17, 2019. The Xbox One version will follow later in October on Xbox Game Preview. The final game is expected to officially launch in early 2020.

Inspired by the golden era of skateboarding, Session lets players experience what skateboarding is really like — an incredible culture where there are no goals other than expressing your creativity and achieving success through hard work, perseverance and a bit of madness. The PC early access version of Session will include true stance-stick controls: each “stick” controls one foot to replicate real skating while highlighting the difficulty of “switch” tricks. The skateable environment is a 1:1 scale of New York focused on lower Manhattan, featuring the legendary Brooklyn Banks and surrounding Financial District.

For more information on Session, be sure to follow creā-ture on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.

About creā-ture Studios

Here at creā-ture Studios, located in the surroundings of Montreal, Canada, we try to do things differently — not because we have to, but simply because making games doesn’t seem to be what it used to.

More than a product, a creā-tion, the achievement of an art form envisioned into something fun and interactive! Our goal is to bring high-quality, detail-oriented, entertaining, creative and original games to niche markets and to serve them the best we can with an inspiring mindset, creating games that will meet the needs, quality standards and requirements of the people who play them. At the end of the day, it needs to be legit and fun. For more information, visit http://www.crea-turestudios.com.

AWARD-WINNING HORROR TITLE ‘REMOTHERED: TORMENTED FATHERS’ AVAILABLE NOW ON SWITCH

TRUE TERROR FOLLOWS YOU EVERYWHERE ON NINTENDO’S FLEXIBLE SYSTEM

Catania, Sicily, September 6, 2019 — Darril Arts and Stormind Games are proud to announce that the critically-acclaimed Remothered: Tormented Fathers will provoke anxiety again now that it is available on the Nintendo eShop.

Nintendo Switch layers can finally get their hands on the perfect psychological horror adventure today on the eShop for 29.99 USD/EUR.

Remothered: Tormented Fathers puts you in the role of Rosemary Reed, who is looking into the disappearance of a young woman named Celeste. As Rosemary searches Celeste’s childhood home her investigation comes to a halt when Richard, Celeste’s adoptive father, refuses to cooperate. Rosemary does not relent and returns to the home after dark to continue her investigation but finds herself trapped and stalked by its twisted inhabitants. 

Remothered sticks to classic, tense survival horror gameplay with modern polish. Your protagonist never becomes a monster-slaying machine, you will always have to carefully weigh your options between stealth, combat, and escape.

Cube World Launching on Steam in September/October

No update to Picroma’s Cube World has been released since the game exploded onto the indie gaming scene in 2013. Wollay, the one man dev behind Picroma, rarely posted updates on Twitter. Although Wollay provided some screenshots and video footage of his progress, the lack of updates to the alpha for paid backers made many to believe Cube World was vapourware.

We finally had the greatest sign of life on Friday, as Picroma announced Cube World’s impending release on Steam. Details are extremely scant right now. Wollay has confirmed that anyone who paid to get access to the alpha will get Steam keys when the game is released. Currently, the tentative release date is in late September or October.

The store page has a simple description of what the Steam release will bring to Cube World. A total lack of Steam Early Access branding implies that it will be a full featured 1.0 release on Steam. No price has been announced as of yet, but it is safe to assume Cube World will cost a lot more than it’s original $15 USD price.

EVERSPACE™ 2 Kickstarter campaign with first demo version starts on 02 October 2019

After ROCKFISH Games announced its new open-world space shooter EVERSPACE™ 2 for PC and consoles at Gamescom: Opening Night Live, the independent German developer announced today the postponement of the Kickstarter campaign to October 02, 2019. Early Access of EVERSPACE™2 on Steam is currently planned for the end of 2020, with the full version for PC, PlayStation® 4 and Xbox One scheduled for release in the second half of 2021.

“At Gamescom and Pax West, over 1500 space game fans played the EVERSPACE™ 2 demo and were all enthusiastic about it. That’s why we decided to exhibit at the Tokyo Game Show at the German Pavilion at short notice, too,” says Michael Schade, CEO of ROCKFISH Games. “We will then incorporate the feedback into the finalization of the reward tiers and stretch goals of the Kickstarter campaign. In addition, we want to polish the demo a bit more and add graphic options to support a wide range of gaming PCs, so that our backers can get into exciting space battles later this year.” The story of EVERSPACE™ 2 will continue after the events of its successful predecessor. The game will offer not only even more immersive gameplay, but also a visually impressive open-world gaming experience. The Kickstarter campaign is now scheduled from 02 October to 04 November 2019. The demo version of EVERSPACE™ 2 for eligible backers will be available via Steam shortly after the campaign has ended.
