Greenlight Wednesday

So many games to choose from this week, but I've narrowed it down to my top 5:

Impact Winter by Mojo Bones
Impact Winter is a post-apocalyptic survival RPG that deals with the themes of leadership, teamwork, isolation and survival. You play the role of Jacob Solomon: leader of a group of survivors holed-up in a remote church.

My Opinion - There are lots of survival games out there at the moment but this one looks different and worthy of attention.  The world looks beautiful and the gameplay interesting; I'll be greenlighting this and playing it once released.




The Lost Battalion: All Out Warfare by Impartial Pictures
A 2d Platformer set in th Western Fronts of World War 1. The Lost Battalion has a very unique Art style and is based on the real life events of "The Lost Battalion". Countless men were killed or captured but some held out and were rescued. You can be a Hero on the Western Front. Good luck.

My Opinion - This game looks ridiculous but also a lot of fun! Essentially I'm a sucker for hand-drawn games and that combined with the fun-looking gameplay, this gets my vote.


D.G.U. by Green Ice Games
D.G.U. is a 3rd person 3D adventure/puzzle game where the player plays as a student of the Death God University studying to become a death god assistant. Set in a wacky world, DGU takes its inspiration in the old point and click adventure / puzzle games like Day of the Tentacle or Sam & Max or Monkey Island.

My Opinion - This game has already been greenlit but looks too good to pass up on here.  The concept is highly original, with the graphics and gameplay to back it up.  Looking forward to this being released.



Cards and Castles by Bit Mass
Cards and Castles is a combination Collectible Card and Strategy Game pitting your favorite fantasy factions against each other: Ninjas, Warlocks, Pirates, Crusaders, and Vikings! Build a custom deck of cards from multiple factions, then play them on the battlefield to create fully controllable units, area spells, and more! There’s an endless variety of combinations to use in battle. Collect cards to create more strategies and combos to dominate your opponents and destroy their castle!

My Opinion - An original looking CCG with graphics and style reminiscent of Castle Crashers (an awesome game).  If you want to check it out, it is already available on Android and iPhone - I have and it's a lot of fun.



Transcendence by Kronosaur Productions
Transcendence is a game of space combat and exploration. This single-player PC game is set in a vast and dangerous galaxy. Travel through dozens of randomly generated star systems and fight against hundreds of unique ship classes on an epic journey to the edge of Human Space.

My Opinion - I love space games in this style and this one is a lot of fun.  The core game is available to download from the game website, with an expansion available for $6.
