In-Vivo puts you in the shoes of an alien abductee, trying to escape the spaceship of your captors.  Unfortunatley, due to the tranquilisers they have you on, you only have 30 seconds to make your escape, before passing out and being taken to your cell.

Things are made slightly easier by the ’dream state’ you enter when you pass out, allowing you to freely roam around the parts of the ship you visited when you were awake.  Although unable to fully interact with anything, it gives you the opportunity to plan your escape.  What makes the game even more interesting is that there is no single solution to any problem, with various options available to you to help you escape captivity.

Hungry Hubert is a fast paced action platformer where you have to kill all the enemies by vomiting on them and eat the level so you won’t starve to death.   Vomiting on enemies makes your hunger bar increase, so you have to literally chew the scenery to satisfy your hunger.  

The game features charming monochrome retro visuals, a nice sense of humour, tricky but precise platforming and big boss battles.  Hungry Hubert is great fun to play, it’s a monochrome Super Meat Boy with projectile vomiting, we just wish it was available on gameboy!

Sixside is a nice first person free-running platform game, similar to Mirrors Edge, but with Tron style visuals, and MUCH harder.

Players use a combination of wall jumps and platforming skills to traverse the levels as fast as they can while trying to not plummet to their death (which they will).  The difficulty is reminiscent of Super Meat Boy, and similarly to SMB, there’s a great satisfaction to be had from pulling off a perfect run and making it to the end of the levels.

Catlateral Damage is a first person mischievous cat simulator, where your objective is to knock as many of your loving owners belongings onto the floor within a 2 minute time limit.

It’s a fun little game, and there’s a lot of satisfaction to be had from knocking things over and making a mess (That’s probably why cats do it in the first place).  The dev plans to add more levels (rooms) to destroy, but at the Alpha gives you free reign to destroy your owners bedroom for 2 mins.  On your marks… get set… destroy!!

We’d like to thank everyone who has re-blogged this post.  You’ve all managed to get Catlateral Damage to the top of the indieDB charts and get it recognised by all the major gaming sites.  

If you’d like to see this game on Steam, you can vote for it on Greenlight now!  

The dev (Chris Chung) has now put the game on Steam Greenlight and is planning to add more levels, more items to destroy, new gameplay modes (including stealth mode), better graphics, sfx and music, achievements and Occulus Rift support!

Thanks again for all the support, you’re all awesome!  :) 

Bosses Forever 2.Bro is a bigger and badder version of the original Bosses forever game, featuring twice the amount of Bros as it’s predecessor.

You’re tasked with climbing an infinite tower filled with randomly generated boss fights, upgrading your Bro between fights.  Bosses learn from your actions, getting harder the better you play and have a large variety of weaponry at their disposal.  It’s a nice slice of arcade action and is great fun in local co-op.  It also deserves kudos for the cheesy pun in it’s title!

Path of Shadows is a great looking, 3rd person cell shaded stealthy assassin game with supernatural overtones, inspired by TenchuMetal Gear SolidDishonored and Mark of the Ninja.  

You take control of an assassin who has been given a second chance at life by a mysterious goddess.  She brings you back from the dead and grants you the ability to manipulate shadows to your advantage, allowing you to do such things as teleport between shadows, hide bodies and use (X-ray) Shadow vision to locate and stalk enemies.

It’s still in the prototype stages, but already the cell shaded graphics look beautiful and the stealth based gameplay is remarkably solid.  Like any great stealth game, you’re very fragile if exposed, but when you’re stalking an enemy in the shadows you’re deadly.

Space Farmers is a fun and interesting action/puzzle game with some inventive ideas and great multiplayer co-op play.

You and a friend take control of two farmers who have to fight their way through a spaceship full of angry robots, gadgets and guns.

Each game of Space Farmers lasts around 20 mins, with you and your co-op partner in a dash to escape the alien ship.  However each play-through should be different as there are lots of different variations of the sectors of the ship, all requiring a combination of skill and brain power.  This can range from rescuing your friend from a gas filled room to a mad dash from a giant spiky roller.

Space Farmers is a fun arcadey action puzzle game that offers great replayability value due to it’s clever level design, you’ll never play the same game twice!
