Eyes in the Dark - Oinone - Out July 14th
In search for her grandpa Victor, young girl Victoria Bloom has to enter the family's mansion, infested by evil creatures of the darkness. Her mighty weapon: a flashlight.
Eyes in the Dark is a rogue-like and y'all know what that means: Every run is different with the mansion changing constantly. Find different items for the fight against the darkness and get stronger with every run.
All of this in a quite intriguing look. Handdrawn like a children's book and monochromatic, with deep blacks and bright white, emphazising the battle of light against shadows.
If you itch to fight enemies with a flashlight, this game might entertain you while waiting for Alan Wake 2.

Fire and Manuever - Uzzy - Out July 15th in Early Access
A new strategy game from, of all places, the team behind The Armchair Historian YouTuber. Set in the Victorian Age, you take charge of one of seven great powers of the period as they clash on the battlefields of Europe.

The game features an interesting simultaneous turn system, where both generals issue orders to their units, then see how they play out all together all at once. This forces you to predict your enemies actions, and work out a counter, then hope that you made the right move, with only the fate of Empire resting on it.

Max Payne - Uzzy
May Payne turns 21 this month, so he's finally old enough to drink. In America anyway. He'll certainly need one, on the run, framed for murder, hunted by the cops and the mob. The alcohol might dull the senses, but it won't end the Payne.
A classic detective noir meets third person action game, Humphrey Bogart meets John Woo, Remedy's classic still holds up today, with it's highly stylised story and world told primarily through graphic novel pages, a very smart move given the state of 3D graphics at the time. The gameplay that allows you to create your own Hong Kong action spectaculars, gunning down mobsters in slow mo bullet time, more than holds up today, which is even more impressive when you think that these were the very early days of third person shooters, Remedy having to invent a template for them that would be followed in future, making Max Payne as foundational as Tomb Raider or Gears of War.
It's relatively short too, finishable in under eight hours. So lets raise a glass to Max on his birthday, and hit the mean streets of New York one more time. There's nothing left to lose..
Fugitive Undercover Cops in a computer game this month:
Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade - Uzzy
Step up to the oche and land that 7 dart finish to dethrone Wedge from the top of the scoring board. Tifa will be really impressed, I'm sure.
Players with the Heavenly Dart Player achievement:
- Notice a poster that is obnoxious or harmful to the thread? REPORT THEM.
- Do not solicit/trade/sell/beg for games in this thread.
- Do not spam post your game stats/games count or post damage lists from sales. There's a dedicated thread for that!
- NO ANIME/J-ROCK/POP POSTS ALLOWED
- Maybe try not to drive posters away for sharing their thoughts on video games, alright? If you're not wanting to purchase a game for any reason, and someone discusses it in entirely unrelated terms, you don't necessarily have to tell them that you're not going to purchase it for that reason. I know that's something I could do better myself. That's not to say you can't discuss that reason, of course, you just don't have to every time someone mentions a game in an unrelated context.
- How do I use Gift Bot? - Check here.
- How do I recommend a game / challenge / retro to the OP? - Send Uzzy a PM
The SteamERA Community was founded on Discord on October 2017, a stranded bunch of SteamGAF who united together and embraced on what we thought was the end of times. However as more people joined we found hope and soon started to formulate and plan for the future. This thread would not be possible without the community we have on Discord and I encourage all of you to join if you have not.
