Subterfuge
October 15, 2015
Strategy, 2D, Economic, Indie Games, Internet, Multiplayer, Under Water.
A multiplayer-oriented strategy game created by a team of three programmers: Ron Carmel, Noel Llopis and Shane Nakamura. Subterfuge is set under the surface of seas, when colonies that have co-existed peacefully so far, begin fighting one another over an incredibly valuable resource known as Neptunium. The player's goal here is to achieve global domination. Each player controls their city-state and tries to gain the upper hand by moving their submarines. The game offers relatively unusual mechanics, because execution of plans based on the player's decision can take even several hours; the game goes on, while the player can be either taking care of something completely different or spending time talking to the other participants in order to make alliances, exchange information or, for instance, deceive them.

Arcade, 2D, Ghosts, Internet, LAN, Multiplayer, Platformers, Splitscreen, Singleplayer.
A two-dimensional platformer game which casts the player in the role of Mae Barrons - an exorcist who specializes in ghosts. In contrast to other exorcists, Mae uses rocket launchers, machetes, spells and various gadgets to fight the beings from another dimension. Gameplay in Extreme Exorcism is based on an innovative pattern - each defeated ghost is replaced by another that recreates movements the protagonist performed in the previous fight. As a result, each fight constitutes a new challenge and the enemies' actions cannot be simply learned by heart. Consequently, the player is forced to think ahead and sooner or later realizes that it is necessary to be taking the next fight into account. The game offers a campaign comprised of ten different maps. The story-based part of Extreme Exorcism can be played either solo or in co-op mode. Apart from that, the game features the so-called deathmatch mode, challenges requiring the player to achieve certain goals, as well as a cooperative mode, requiring the players to defend themselves against legions of ghosts. Extreme Exorcism comes with old-school, pixel-art visuals.

A standalone production that consists of the three previously released installments in the highly acclaimed hack’n’slash series The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing from Neocore Games.

Papa Sangre II is an iOS horror audio system. In the game we play the corpse. Fortunately, our death is recent and we still have a chance to return to the living world. A mysterious ally, given the floor by Sean Bean himself, helps us to do this. Production is almost completely devoid of graphics and instead we have to rely mainly on hearing.
