Screenshot Saturday Featuring Chinatown Detective Agency, Metamorphosis, More

April 26th - via: hardcoregamer.com
Hello, and welcome to another edition of Screenshot Saturday! Where developers and several others working on various video games use the #screenshotsaturday tag in order to provide little peeks into their latest work. And while we may not have an E3 to ramp up to this year, it would appear that a number of various showcases are popping up to fill the void, so this means that we can still expect to see several new developments and appearances from even more games in the following month or so. For now, though, we still have a crop of impressive games to look at (which should hopefully get a chance to appear at these showcases if possible), so let’s get right to it! (Read More)

May Kickstarter Picks

May 3rd - via: vgchartz.com
The stealth genre has seen its highs and lows over the generations, with most of the 7th generation being particularly unkind to it. As of late we have started to see a re-emergence of the genre, in both the ‘AAA’ market and the ever-growing indie development side. Wildfire, by Sneaky Bastards, is the later of the two. The game is about using your powers wisely to outwit your foes, rather than overpowering them. Your character has the ability to control fire (like in Avatar: The Last Airbender), and must use this power to distract and provoke fear in your enemies. (Read More)
