Speculating Screenshots (5th September 2015)

September 8th, 2015 Wraithkal Feature
Speculating Screenshots (5th September 2015)

For most, weekends means two days off work with some much-needed R&R. But for game developers, it’s also 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. Screenshots which I will be critiquing some of every single Tuesday, in Speculating Screenshots.

Different screenshots from different developers, all working on different games. Some are very much a WIP, while other are from titles rapidly approaching release. These tweets do all have one thing they in common though, which is that they feature actual screenshots (or at the very least, mockups), animated or stills.

Not sure how that’d work, but darn if it isn’t a neat idea…

What? I know. Not really a screenshot. What can I say – I’m a Twine fan!

Why is he still in the escape pod room? Get into a pod and cheese it already.

Is that a bearded crayon? If so, I approve.

I’d say “what a cute birdie” for sure, if only it didn’t look so darn predator-ish, ya know?

Wraithkal

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.
