CONQUER THE OCEAN DEPTHS AND KICKFLIP THROUGH CRUMBLING SHIPS IN RETRO PLATFORMER ‘SEAFROG’ – OUT NOW!

Chase Heart-Racing Thrills On Your Rocket-Powered Wrench, Shredding Through Sea Monster Infested Shipwrecks

SEATTLE, WA, 15 April 2025 | Oh My Me Games, previous winner of the 2022 IGN Rogue Jam, is excited to announce that their studio’s debut game, Seafrog, has officially launched on Steam! Perform high-octane skateboarding tricks as you traverse through deteriorating ships filled with puzzles and challenges in this retro 2.5D platformer. 

Catch Serious Air!
Seafrog introduces players to a froggy mechanic-in-training and his companion, Captain Woodsbeard. After walking the plank of a previous ship, the duo finds themselves adrift in the depths of an ever-growing sinkhole in the ocean. Their only chance of survival is to repair derelict ships, solve tricky contraptions, and gather fuel to save yer hinds! Every ship is the ultimate skatepark, and your wrench is your ride. Use a simple auto-trick system to make combos and fill up the boost meter; use this boost to smash through enemies, fly up walls, and stick to ceilings to access hard-to-reach items. Rely on the handy C-Star navigator to seek the ship’s corridors, pinpointing all items in every map location and opening up further world progression. Gather enough barnacles to fuel your cannon and launch yourself to other ship locations!

Wrench-tastic Enhancements
Use your boost to smash through enemies like a Fiji Mermaid or land a grind on a fat rat to continue your combo. Counteract damage by eating ladybugs to replenish your health or fill your boost meter. As you explore, new map upgrades will help you reach previously blocked areas. Use this exploration to your advantage to collect up to twenty-four mod chips for overall stat improvements. For a more relaxed experience, equip a wellness mod chip to enhance your health, or crank up the challenge with a speed-enhancing mod chip that boosts speed at the cost of other stats. Dive deeper into the system by arranging your mod chips by color to activate bonuses and get the most out of your layout, but be careful as sacrificing too much of a stat can heavily impact the gameplay. 

Imaginative Story Telling
Land ho! Gradually uncover the tall tales of the sea across three unique story chapters. Battle vengeful Viking ghosts aboard the Sea Dragon. Dig in for a tasty meal aboard the Chunky Chacken, where you’ll discover a man-eating chicken outbreak. Finally, get ready for some monkey business at The Sweater Factory, an abandoned workshop run by an unexpected crew of apes causing all the ruckus. Each chapter holds Ultimate Master Gear, guarded by an ultimate boss. Live to tell the legendary tale of the mysterious seahole by kick-flipping your way through each boss and obtaining all the master gears! 

Gameplay Features:

  • Ahoy! Thar be lots to see: Interact with a distinct and colorful cast of characters
  • Battle foes and discover tall tales: 8 hours of story campaign featuring multiple boss encounters to test your sick moves.
  • Fun for seasoned captains and small landlubbers: Suitable for all ages, adjust for relaxed play or crank up your gear for a more difficult challenge.
  • Bounce from ship to ship: Use your C-Star navigation device to achieve 100% item collection in every map location.
  • Boost your overall stats: 24 different Modchip upgrades available.
  • Uncover hidden stones: Scour every room to uncover over 120 hidden Snakestones.
  • Swashbuckling battles: Collect 3 Master Gears through lighthearted story arcs with boss battles.

“BEYOND THE GRID” NEW MILESTONE TRAILER OFFERS A DEEP DIVE INTO MOTOGP25

Sydney, Australia, April 15th, 2025. Milestone and MotoGP™ have released Beyond the Grid, a deep dive into the upcoming MotoGP™25. Developed for the first time in Unreal Engine 5, the new MotoGP™ video game will featureall the official content of the 2025 season, including great comebacks like the legendary Brno track in Czechia as well as the newest entry in the calendar, the Balaton Park Circuit in Hungary. It will also include innovative features that will allow both newcomers and pros alike to live the MotoGP™ experience to the fullest.

The brand-new Race Off game mode will enrich and diversify the experience more than ever, allowing players to test themselves on different bike types, a first in the franchise’s history. Just like real riders, fans will get to train across three unique disciplines with different physics and handling, available both in the career and as a single event. Each type of bike will sharpen players’ skills and will also unlock special rewards. It will be possible to choose between the:

  • Motard, fast bikes useful to learn how to master speed and handling,
  • the Flat Track, an off-road motorcycle that will challenge players to keep the control even in the lowest-grip conditions,
  • or the Minibikes, small but precise two-wheelers that require a high level of accuracy to be mastered.

MotoGP™25 also marks the introduction of two different riding physics, which will allow everyone to race according to their preferences. The Arcade Experience is perfect for those who want to get right into the action without forgetting authenticity. The bike handling is more straightforward and there is no need to overthink setups and fine-tuning. It will give players a quick and accessible gameplay that still captures the essence of MotoGP™. The Pro Experience instead promises to be the pinnacle of simulation. Players will be able to tweak numerous elements such as bike settings, tyre management, riding aids, electronics, and fuel consumption. This is a more refined experience for those who want to feel the most realistic racing sensations.

They will particularly appreciate another novelty of this new instalment, namely a refined Bike Development System that will put performance improvements in the hands of players like never before. In this regard, communication with the team will be fundamental as players will be able to suggest changes to the team engineers in dedicated debriefs and post-race meetings. Once the bike has been modified based on the player’s input, it will be possible to evaluate the updates in designated test sessions, in a continuous pursuit of perfection. This feature once again takes the franchise to a new level of realism, allowing everyone to live a true MotoGP™ journey.

Elevating the experience even more, MotoGP™25 offers a significant audio enhancement. Bikes will roar louder than ever, thanks to an outstanding on-site, custom-made sound design that will grant the most immersive sound of the franchise.

Off the track, rivalries with other riders will be even clearer thanks to the revamped Social Relationships Management. A new HUD will help players better understand the status of each competitor, and anticipate their moves based on the evolution of their rivalry. Of course, everything will be checked by the FIM MotoGP™ Stewards, the race control system introduced in the last chapter which has now been updated to the latest regulations, while players’ behavior and results will greatly impact the opportunities available in the Riders Market during the off-season.

Regarding multiplayer, in MotoGP™25 players will be able to challenge each other both online and offline with the full Cross-play* available from day one, the new ranked races, the Live GP Championship* and the two players local split-screen mode.

Finally, the new chapter of the MotoGP™ franchise unleashes the creativity of its community through in-game editors, from the helmet to the sticker, the race number, and the butt patch, up to the new podium emotes, with the possibility of sharing creations with the rest of the world*.

MotoGP™25 will be available on April 30th, 2025, on PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch™, and PC via Steam and Epic Game Store.

Sway Warring Empires by Livestreaming in “The Great Villainess” on PC July 24

One hour of updated gameplay footage showcased in new gameplay video

TOKYO — 14 April, 2025 — The Great Villainess: Strategy of Lily, the crowd-controlling turn-based strategy game produced by One or Eight (LOST EPIC) and Alliance Arts, disseminates disinformation on PC via Steam Thursday, 24 July, 2025, as announced during INDIE Live Expo. 

Duchess Scarlet’s irrelevant innocence can’t beat the false murder accusations, and now she faces the Imperial Kingdom’s guillotine. With microseconds to spare, a time-traveling livestreamer from the future named Lily rescues Scarlet from a bloody fate, and the pair sets out together to clear Scarlet’s name. 

Enjoy nearly an hour of new gameplay footage showcasing Act I, and take a sneak peek at Act II in the latest trailer on the Alliance Arts YouTube channel introducing 19 new characters, each with their own distinct abilities and Unison Skills.

Fight falsehoods through media manipulation in a pre-Internet era as Lily’s modern-day broadcasting blimp purveys persuasive propaganda from above. Convince enemy generals to move troops to different parts of the battlefield, then flank their weak spots to increase the odds of victory. Sow seeds of doubt to lower their morale and incur defection.

Defeat enemy battalions and free captured prisoners to boost Scarlet’s skills. Convince conflicted opponents to join Scarlet’s cause and increase her ranks. Deepen bonds with allies through conversation to both improve army strength and unlock new Unison skills, and amass an army large enough (and trustworthy enough) to topple the Imperial Kingdom’s reign.

“Whether winning through winsomeness or brute force, The Great Villainess offers many ways to play,” says the development team. “Thanks to the feedback we received from our community, we implemented many community-requested updates, and can’t wait for the community to go hands-on with the final version very soon!”

The Great Villainess: Strategy of Lily is coming to PC on Thursday, 24 July, 2025 with language options in English, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), and Korean. For more information, visit the Alliance Arts official website, and follow Alliance Arts on Twitter and YouTube.
