SAN FRANCISCO – Nov. 13, 2024 – Exercise Your Demons!, a devilish mixed reality fitness game by developer VYERSOFT, emerges from the Netherworld on Meta Quest 2, 3/3S, and Pro, on Thursday Dec. 12, 2024.

The Netherworld has big plans for the human realm, and it’s more sinister than ever. When the cunning Demonomicon deceives mankind into opening a portal, a relentless flood of fiends flows through. Only one thing can seal the rift—players must rise to the challenge, send those demons back, and get swole in the process.

Lace up DeGauntlets and fire up those forearms with the help of fiendish fitness instructors Ash and Zephyr at the Infernal Gymnasium. Featuring pulse-pounding locations like Poison Blossom Park and the Ultimate Demon Derby, players will master mixed-reality moves: duck, dodge, weave, and SMASH their way to victory with immersive and responsive controls.

Fitness is a lifestyle, not a one-off boss rush. Rewards await the persistent – Impcoin and Soulbars unlock advancement through the story campaign and cool cosmetics. The buffs gained in real life translates to advancement in game, with a leaderboard showing off the hard work of the fittest demon-punchers of the land.

“The easiest way to work up a sweat is by having fun,” said VYERSOFT founder Matthew Conn. “With ‘Exercise Your Demons!’, we will help people fight off the demons keeping them away from their fitness goals”

Exercise Your Demons! is coming Thursday, Dec. 12 to Meta Quest 2, 3/3s, and Pro, for $19.99 USD, and will support English, Spanish (Spain), Catalan, German, French, Japanese, and Korean languages.

New Arc Line is launching into Early Access on November 26

Prague, Czech Republic – November 13, 2024  – The eagerly-anticipated release of New Arc Line is just around the corner, with the RPG set to hit Early Access on November 26, launching on  Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG – with the full 1.0 launch also hitting PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S at a later date.

And so, with less than two weeks to go before fans will be walking the streets of New Arc, developer Dreamate has shared some details about what awaits them – Explaining the backstory and mechanics of the three playable technological classes.

Set in a world teetering on the precipice of change, New Arc Line is a story-rich RPG that invites players to explore the abundant yet troubled realm where magic and technology collide. 

In New Arc Line, the world has moved beyond the Mago-Technology wars, and science and engineering have become the ruling principles. This triumph catapulted the Technologists to power, and nothing stood in the way of industrialization and inventors replaced sorcerers as the ones shaping the world and society alike. Steamboats took over the seas, zeppelins conquered the skies and wands and magical staves were surpassed by guns, grenades and other technological implements of death.

But trouble is brewing beneath the surface. The rise of a new invention, automatons, has led to massive layoffs in industrial plants, leaving countless families without a source of income. Ironically, the very workers who once cheered for the suppression of mages are now being crushed by the wheels of the technological revolution they helped create. Industrialists still promise a bright future, and who knows – perhaps they will turn the world into a utopia in the end. But as of the beginning of the story of New Arc Line, the poor, the tired, the huddled masses still yearn to be free and it seems that one form of tyranny has simply replaced another.

Nevertheless, talented enthusiasts can still make their dreams come true, even in this rapidly evolving world – if they show a real work ethic, that is! Opportunities abound in three technological areas in particular: Tesla, Diesel, and Steam. Each field requires a unique skillset from its practitioners, but gives them access to specialised weapons and equipment, granting powerful abilities on par with actual magic. In the game, this translates into the option to select out of three playable technological classes*:

Diesel Engineer

Often seen sporting leather coats with many pockets and utility belts to store the tools they need for their constant tinkering, Diesel Engineers are experts in firearms and skilled creators of cutting-edge diesel gadgets – you never know when a Jetpack might come in handy to bail you out of a tight spot!

Steam Mechanic

These are the most hands-on of the technological classes, preferring to face any problem and obstacle head-on. To that end, they utilise the awesome strength of highly reliable steam engines, powering wearable gear that enhances their own physical abilities; the most skilled Mechanics construct and operate full steam-powered exoskeletons, transforming into nigh-unstoppable behemoths when the need arises to bash some skulls in!

Tesla Scientist

Practitioners of the most mysterious, almost ethereal of the technological disciplines can often be seen with strange, buzzing and sparkling instruments strapped to their bodies, nervously fidgeting as they strive to control lightning itself. The more superstitious folk would say that Tesla Scientists are playing with powers beyond their understanding that are better left alone, but the most accomplished of these scholars are rumoured to be able to even reanimate lifeless bodies – what could go wrong?

*Diesel Engineer will be available at Early Access launch, Steam Mechanic and Tesla Scientist will be added as playable classes later.

New Arc Line will launch in Early Access for $19.99/€19.99 on PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GoG on November 26!

Battle solo or co-op in a hilariously unpredictable, dynamic campaign where strategy meets irreverence

Montreal, Canada, November 13th, 2024 – In the future, the killbots will rise. To prepare for this inevitable cataclysm, the two-person studio at Universe Workshop, in partnership with Signal Space Lab, have revealed that they’ve been developing the real-time tactics game Killbot General so we can simulate the impending robot warfare we know we’re all headed for. In preparation, three trailers have been unveiled: Botscaping, Origin Story and Deep Dive trailer. We may not be able to defeat the killbots – their reign is inevitable – but we can sure as hell join them!

Coming to Steam in 2025, Killbot General offers satisfying real-time tactics packed into 5-minute battles. In a world where Killbots are split in factions fighting for dominance, you are your faction’s greatest general. Lead your fully-customized faction through a procedurally-generated dynamic campaign set in the wild, irreverent universe of the killbots. You’ll have to make split-second decisions on which troops to deploy, where and when to use artillery, which hills and valleys are worth going for. Make sure you’re accounting for topography, terrain and weather, as these elements could turn the tide of battle. The name of the game is strategy, not micromanagement or fast-clicking. Do you have what it takes to lead your battalion to glory?

Deploy solo or bring up to two friends in online co-op. You can even play through the story mode together, where each player will have to make decisions that alter how the narrative unfolds, ensuring that every playthrough can take wildly unexpected turns. 

Customize everything; from a faction’s name, motto and leader, to the cause it’s fighting for. Players can even customize unit names or use their own PNG images to create completely personalized flags. With multiple unit types and upgrade paths, Killbot General lets you create the unstoppable army of sentient toasters of your dreams!

“With Killbot General we wanted to focus on the satisfaction of making impactful tactical decisions, without requiring quick reflexes or micromanagement,” said Francois Bertrand, game director at Universe Workshop. “Also, we aimed to get right to the good stuff, without all the lengthy buildup or tedious cleanup. Think of it like blitz chess; you’ll have to think fast, but you won’t need to click fast.”

About Universe Workshop:

Their efforts got noticed by fellow indies at Signal Space Lab, who integrated them as an independent label, where they continue to work on the game.

Enlist for duty in the new turn-based war tactic roguelike

Mariehamn, Finland, 13th November 2024 | Solo developer Frans Wikman is excited to announce the upcoming release of Rogue Conflict— Where the inspiration of classic strategic war games meets roguelike gameplay. Featuring key pixel art designed by Wikman, players will assemble their army, face opposing army factions, engage in turn-based battles, and demonstrate their military expertise in paving their way to become the supreme leading faction.

Prepare for Combat!

Congratulations, you have just been assigned to your new post! Step into the boots of a war-decorated commander and unlock up to 15 different army factions. Each faction, from infantry units to powerful armored fighting tanks, brings its own distinct strengths and abilities to the battlefield. Players are challenged to think several moves ahead. Assess the strengths and weaknesses of various enemy types, and use procedurally generated terrains from seven unique map styles to your advantage in outsmarting opponents.

Command your Forces

Begin every campaign with a transmission briefing from high command, outlining your mission objectives. Start with the deployment phase, where positioning your troops for optimal coverage of the battlefield is crucial. Create a plan of attack to infiltrate enemy territories. Use recon units to scout out enemy lines and captured village locations. Deploy artillery units to unleash powerful barrages that not only damage enemy units but also their morale. Coordinate with aircraft to provide air support, raining down from above while your tanks engage in close combat, delivering decisive blows to enemy forces. Dismantle your enemy’s strength and morale, depleting their health to zero, and complete all necessary objectives within the turn-count. 

Customize your army 

Adjust your strategies throughout ever-changing campaigns. Overcome enemy territories by securing enemy supply depots, radar stations, and nuclear power plants. Upon completion, players will have the opportunity to upgrade their troops’ capabilities through a Requisition Point System. Exchange RP points to obtain an intelligence report on enemy units ahead of battle, unlock boons and more advanced unit upgrades through new vehicles, equipment, and action abilities. 

Gameplay Features:

• Choose from 15 different armies to coordinate your most effective plan of attack.
• Randomized map combinations challenge players’ combat skills on foot and in the air.
• The game’s upgrade system offers boons to your units, reinforcement types, and large battle equipment such as tanks and aircraft.
• Run campaigns from a commander’s perspective, managing complete control over your army’s every move in battle.

Leap into a haunted arcade cabinet, now with ungodly new anomalies, bonus stages and more!

Vancouver, Canada, November 13th, 2024 – Publisher Over the Moon (The Fall, The Last Hero of Nostalgaia) and developer Treetop have today launched the first major update for their  4-player comedy horror game Terrorbytes on Steam Early Access. You can check out an all new trailer showcasing Terrorbytes’ retro arcade nightmarescape below:

Inspired by Tron, Stranger Things, and Lethal Company, Terrorbytes follows four teenagers who get sucked into a haunted arcade cabinet and forced to gather pellets for the horrifically mangled retro arcade hero Ms. Croak-Man.

Terrorbytes features a nifty hook where all players share the same energy pool, which is used for all actions – even sprinting! So you’ve got to work as a team to collect pellets and keep your energy reserves in check, all while being hunted by arcade anomalies. There’s also plenty of cool upgrades and special items, ranging from a humble flashlight, to a satisfying power washer, to map-room upgrades that allow players to spawn helpful arrows, decoys, or broadcast their voice to other players. Can you survive long enough to uncover the mysterious evil that has trapped you, and escape?

This latest update offers enhanced performance boosts and adds two new remixed, damaged environments and two new anomalies. These include The Mannequin, which is your common “weeping angel” phantom who moves only when you’re not looking at it, and the Jester, who dances for you and really just wants attention. Or he gets frustrated and kills you. Figuring out what his whole deal is is something of a puzzle in itself!
