Under development adventure games that are worth a mention

Maybe Old Skies is in a rush to release before RtMI?

Edit: the first impression is amazing, by the way.

That picture reminds me a lot of Control.

Those green lines in her arm reminded me of Whispers of a Machine, which I never finished although I loved Joel Staaf Hästö’s earlier Kathy Rain.

I suppose the green lines are missing. :smiley:

Based on the Dave Gilbert’s comment on discord, I might be a tad disappointed if RtMI was released after Old Skies :wink:

I like the Curse of Monkey Island style of this under-development adventure game. :slight_smile:

No time now to read the long Kickstarter presentation but, basing my impressions on the art style alone, I might become a backer.

An interesting concept: “The Past Within” is a cooperative game for two players, one in the past and the other in the future, who have to communicate to resolve puzzles and advance the story.

It’s made by the same developers of the “Rusty Lake” series. The trailer video is positively creepy:

Coming in Fall 2022:

Interesting. Reminds me of “The silent age”.
So you can’t play it as a single player, or…?

If I’ve understood it correctly, there is no single player option. It really needs two players.

The new collector’s edition of “Day of the Tentacle Remastered” includes some barf. If you are a collector, that’s the only thing you need to know to preorder the game.

(I wasn’t sure in which thread to mention this news. Technically it’s not an under-development game but only an under-development product)

It still exists? :neutral_face:

I don’t even remember if I backed it or not.

Forever Ago, a narrative-driven road-trip adventure game where you play as Alfred. An elderly man who embarks on a journey in his trusty van. There was a short featurette about it on the Annapurna Interactive Showcase 2022.

I’ve got that wishlisted for quite some time. Love the aesthetics. Though their twitter has been silent for quite some time … not sure if it’s a good sign or bad.

Wasn’t this game called something else before? I already had it in my Steam wishlist.
