Hi /r/games! Happy to back back for another AMA \^\^
For those of you who don’t know us, we’re a small indie studio working on narrative-first, hand-illustrated, indie horror games. Our first game, Scarlet Hollow, is a slow burn mystery with an emphasis on making difficult decisions with no right answers. Its vibe is often described as something like “Twin Peaks meets Gravity Falls and Life is Strange,” which is probably a better mash up than I’d have been able to come up with on my own! It’s in Early Access, and we just released Episode 4 of our planned 7.
We’re also working on Slay the Princess a horror comedy romance that we’ve affectionately described as something like The Stanley Parable meets Call of Cthulhu.
Feel free to ask us about either project!
The folks that are here today to answer your questions:
I’m Tony Howard-Arias — I’m the co-creator and co-writer for both projects, and I also handle game design/coding …
Name: Party Animals
Platforms: PC (Steam), Xbox
Genre: Brawl
Release Date: TBA 2023
Developer: Recreate Games
The only EGS exclusive announced last night seems to be Crime Boss. Death Stranding 2 and Final Fantasy XVI are going to be on PlayStation first before any PC launch, so those are unknown for now (it wouldn’t surprise me if FF XVI was EGS exclusive for a year, give Square Enix’s recent history). Transformers Reactivate will launch on PC but store(s) are unconfirmed. Diablo IV will almost certainly be exclusive to Battle.net but that was already expected.
All in all that seems like a big improvement from previous years, from a player’s perspective.
I don’t think so but i’m all ears.
Welcome to the /r/pcgaming weekly Beat Your Backlog! thread. Are you like the rest of us and just have too many unplayed or barely played games in your library? If you answered yes then this the right place for you!
The rules are simple:
Provide us with the games from your back log and the community tells you what to play by commenting. Whichever game gets the most combined upvotes and comments is the game you play!
Once you’re done with the game come to our community Discord and talk about it!
