Had a look through the entries here i didnt already know about and oh wow Ulitsa Dimitrova has such a depressing description
“He spends his time with robbing, begging, visiting his mom, the prostitute and one time he even falls in love with a girl. His life will never change. And once the player gets bored and stops playing, Pjotr will lay down an freeze to death in the Russian winter.”
;_;
My computer’s new innards will be arriving this week. Maybe then I’ll actually be play some of these games, like Igneous and Devil’s Tuning Fork.
AND WHEN THE HELL ARE WE GETTING MIEGAKURE!
Awwww no SilverQuest love.
Wow, Puddle has just blown me away. I can’t believe I haven’t heard of this game before.
Ulitsa Dimitrova takes the cake for me. Don’t read the author’s description though as he/she dumbly spoiled the plot of the game.
It’s brilliant and I hope it wins.
Congratulations to all the finalists! All of us on the Igneous team are very excited for March :)
I like the concept of Ulitsa Dimitrova but I think we need to actually watch the kid die.
Nobody loves me.
Puddle looks awesome!
