No USB or headphone/mic ports on the front? That seems inconvenient.

Otherwise, they look fantastic.

Quoting: no_information_hereI keep looking at this game and thinking it is beautiful, but not quite having the urge to buy. I generally don't buy early access anyway, but I am hopeful for the full release. I don't mind something slow-paced and open-world like Signal from Tolva, but at least that has a story to pull you along.

Still unsure...

I think there are non-story things they could do to maintain interest. Worthwhile collectibles, for instance, or impressive things to find while exploring, whether that's natural vistas or myterious things left by other earlier spacefarers.

If they came up with some really original stuff along those lines, it would help set them apart. Story would be easier to do though.

Quoting: GuestI feel somewhat skeptical. While tower defense does appeal to me it needs to be well done, the last tower defense game I liked was defenders quest.

Come to think of it, whatever happened to Defender's Quest 2? I haven't heard anything about it for ages, even though it looked so promising.

Hmm, I can't say there's much in the trailer that I can't find elsewhere, or make me actively want to spend a lot of time with the game. Crafting seems pretty basic, graphics look like a basic roguelike tileset with no animations to speak of, no real indication of the quality of writing, and according to the Steam forum they're still missing a lot in terms of basic systems (like inns for full heal) and balance is way off.

The ridiculously low price makes it tempting, but I think I'll wait to see what other folks say about it first.

For those who are just fine with running backwards.

I feel like the super-cutesy voice might bug me after a while, but everything else looks like loads of fun.

Agreed that the drawn artwork doesn't really fit that well with the voxel characters, but at least they look like two different takes on the same characters so I don't mind it much.

That "learned to draw by tracing anime" art is a real turnoff, though. I can't imagine looking at that for 20-30 hours would be an enjoyable experience.

Quoting: tuubi

Quoting: liamdaweHumble also just launched a new bundle with Shadow of Mordor Game of the Year Edition, Bastion and Mad Max affiliate link as usual [External Link].

I've already got all the Linux games in the bundle, but damn that's a crazy low price for Mordor. And Mad Max (which I enjoyed a lot more) for that matter.

Just over CDN$4 for the both of them? Sold!

I find it really annoying that Humble's store interface no longer shows what platforms a game is on when you mouse over them. You have to go to each individual store page to find out.

I'm having Dungeons of Daggorath flashbacks.
