PAX West Preview: Summoner’s Fate

So I’ve played some card based games before, and I’m sure you have too. But this one is also on iOS, so you can bounce between playing on the go, and playing at home. Summoner’s Fate combines both RTS and deck building in a really nice way that felt really great and enjoyable to play. […]

PAX West Preview: Aftercharge

Aftercharge is a really intense 3v3 competitive battle game that shifts the dynamic of your traditional arena style competitive “shooter.” What makes Aftercharge so unique is that it pits two unstoppable forces against one another to see who can outlast the other, or destroy the others resources. One side is invincible enemies, who can’t be […]

Sky Noon is a blast. That’s a pun, and a really good one if you ask me.  Okay, for real though, Sky Noon is a 3v3 competitive multiplayer game in which your character’s arsenal includes a grappling hook, lasso, and an air gun. You’re a hired gunslinger battling cartel fighters in a new take on […]

PAX Preview: Antigraviator

Another fun racing game I got to check out while at PAX East was Antigraviator. It’s a really fun racing game where speed and agility are a must. You’re able to accelerate infinitely, so you can wind up going around insane curves and what you think is break neck speeds only to keep going faster. […]

I had an opportunity to check out The Path of Motus in the Indie Minibooth on day 1 of PAX East this year, and I wasn’t disappointed.  The Path of Motus revolves around the idea of how you use your words. Instead of throwing a punch or a kick, you throw words. Those words have […]
