Va1entine has just asked us to cover his upcoming project, Block Master.

The game is controlled by the mouse only - and you must guide your little blocky friends to safety though many perilous mazes

My First project which i’m now around 3 months into titled “Block Master” i’m creating with Multimedia Fusion 2. Basically this is mouse controlled game in which you the player must guide the little block characters with the mouse through the maze avoiding the challenging obstacles to reach the goal. Block Master is Still a working title. The story and intro animation is what i’m working on at the moment and still unfinalised! The game will feature 12 fully playable levels that include 10 maze’s, a secret hiden maze and a Boss stage. I also plan to feature a construction kit/level editor to create your own mazes. Block Masters file size is currently arround the 15mb, i’m hopeing to keep it under 25mb! Further details and more screen shots can be found at http://va1entine.com/

More information can be found at either http://va1entine.com/ or at the TDC Development Log here.

This exciting-looking RPG created by Rampant Games, will be released very soon! Jay Barnson describes the game:

“Frayed Knights is Rampant Games’ upcoming comedy-based fantasy RPG. It’s a blend of old-school style (first-person, turn-based, party-based adventures like Wizardry, The Bard’s Tale, Dungeon Master, and Might & Magic) with “real” 3D graphics, a healthy dose of character-based humor, and some quirky gameplay innovations. It’s part parody, part homage to both CRPGs and pen-and-paper RPGs.”

The artwork and graphics in this game look very good! The inspiration and background behind this game makes it sound very fascinating indeed, and with what seems to be such a mixed variation of gameplay elements supplied with a good sense of humour - there’s no reason as to why this game wouldn’t be worth a try!…?

But I know… a humour-based, fantasy RPG? Will they pull this one off? Will it work?! … I hope so! Read more about this upcoming game in an interview with Jay Barnson at RPGWatch, by clicking here.

Floating Islands Game, or “FIG”, is a very stylish and very well-built game being produced by Hempuli. The game itself has a lot of charm. FIG is a puzzle / strategy game, boasting over 30 levels and 5 secret levels and its gameplay only requires you use the mouse! Why? This game is inspired from games like ‘Lemmings’ and the infamous flash game, ‘Hapland’.

Aid the man from one side to the other. Simple eh? Ohhh no. Of course not The levels feature so many various ways of saving and killing the little dude, ranging from watering cans, to vicious dogs, to laser beams! But nothing says more than a video, so I’ll do something a little out-of-the-ordinary and post this youtube trailer

Keep up the excellent work Hempuli! I’m looking forward to this one..!! Find more information on FIG, right here.

Today I bring you some information about “The Ion Adventures” made by Newt.

This game looks quite different from most platform games, since all the graphics are 3D renders and it apparently plays quite differently too! It mixes RPG elements with traditional platform gameplay and adds an intriguing story too, what more could you ask for? To quote Newt himself; “It’s been in development for over two years now, and when complete in Spring 08 it will include over 35 levels, several bosses much more!”

If you’re interested there is much more information available at Newt’s own site and If you’re after some video footage of the game, some can be found in the latest episode of The Klikcast which can be viewed here.

So, to continue on a theme here’s another post accompanied by a video! Today I bring you “Roller Coaster” a game currently being made by Nick.

To quote nick himself:

It’s not exactly Rollercoaster Tycoon
It’s not exactly Line Rider either.
But it does have a little bit each.
With a little hint of puzzle thrown in.

Well I say it looks mighty cool! So be on the lookout, more information available here.

Recently, Johan from Crobasoft release a thrilling little game called The Yore.

Unfortunately though, the game seemed to be somewhat over-looked. At first it does sound quite bland and predictable…

“You wake up in a room you’ve never seen before by a scream. Why are you here? Where is your friend? What secrets lie within this old house? There’s a creepy feeling about it, and you must find your friend and get out before anything bad happens!

In The Yore you play as either Colin or Amy who are trapped inside a house they don’t recognize. Solve mysteries and find specific items to progress and uncover the secrets behind the house.”

Typically, this wouldn’t have appealed to me as this isn’t really my kind of game, but there was a certain charm about this one that had me wanting to complete it ^_^ The soundtrack and graphics in this game are remarkable and suit the game perfectly! It was actually very atmospheric and very well put-together!

If you haven’t played this game yet, check it out! Find the trailer and more information here - don’t forget to download version 1.1!
