Speculating Screenshots (14th February 2015)

February 17th, 2015 Wraithkal Feature

For most, weekends mean two days off work with some much-needed R&R. But for game developers, it’s a time during which they get to show off what they’ve been working on. I am of course referring to Screenshot Saturday, which involves tweeting screenshots with the #ScreenshotSaturday hashtag; some of which I will be critiquing every Tuesday, in Speculating Screenshots.

Guild Of Painters (@AD1337)
Hey look – proof that games can be art (get it?). Alright so maybe it’s more like a case of artists, as in, an entire guild of them. Looks great though, and appropriately old-school… in more ways than one.

Anyone else think that font looks awfully familiar? Maybe I’m just that old. Ah well. Here’s to Brock stopping those pesky monkeys, no matter the cost.

More like, Heroes of Awesomeness, ya know? Been a while since I played a roguelike that’s both action-packed and fun, and hey, those visuals don’t exactly hurt the eyes either. Also, Greenlight.

Something new, eh? Seeing how one of the characters looks like he’s about to run off with a piece of fruit (or vegetable?), I’d say we’re looking at a game about shoplifting from a local grocery. Ah, if only.

Puzzle puzzle puzzle. #comedytuesday Seriously though, those slimes should look way more hostile, I’d say. Or… maybe that’s the whole point – to make them appear as less of a threat, lulling the protagonist into a false sense of security? Nah, that’d be crazy.

Whenever a big AAA title claims it'll "innovate with groundbreaking features", it usually turns out to be a snore-fest; one which simply mimics other games (poorly). This is where my interest indie game interest comes from: pick a random title from a pile of these, and chances are you’ll end up with something genuinely unique - often for well less than $60 too.
