The half-genie Shantae returns to help celebrate WayForward's 25th anniversary and she's come with an upgraded art style. Shacknews recently had a chance to give the game a look during last weekend's IndieCade event.
What happens when developer Brainseed Factory mixes together the idea of wordplay and platforming? It becomes the start of an intriguing adventure, one that Shacknews was able to try out at this year's IndieCade.
IndieCade is home to some of the best new games and trends from across the indie gaming scene. Here are a few of the games that stood out to Shacknews.
Double Fine is hard at work on Day of the Tentacle Remastered, offering the first playable demo at IndieCade 2015. Shacknews was on-hand to try it out, but also took some time to speak to Double Fine founder Tim Schafer, who revealed, among other things, why it was 'now or never' for this project.
Day of the Tentacle Remastered is faithfully restoring just about every element of the 1993 LucasArts original game. And that means everything, as Double Fine has confirmed that the playable version of Maniac Mansion found in the original will also be present in the remaster.
Double Fine's next effort to remaster the old LucasArts classics sees it taking aim at Day of the Tentacle. IndieCade 2015 provided the first opportunity to go hands-on with Day of the Tentacle Remastered and Shacknews was there to try it out.
IndieCade 2015's award contenders includes a huge variety of gameplay, such as non-linear the non-linear storytelling of Her Story and the virtual board game style of Armello.
