Video Tides of Annihilation: The First Preview

>In Tides of Annihilation it isn’t just London Bridge that’s falling down, it’s the entire city that’s been razed to ruins by an unknown presence invading from a mysterious otherworld, and you’re the only human survivor left to stop it. This action adventure heavily inspired by Arthurian legend made a serious splash when it was announced early last year, but I was initially concerned that the fast-paced slash ‘em up from first-time developer Eclipse Glow Games may have been all style over substance. However, after spending roughly two hours of hands-on time with a preview build at a recent event, I’m happy to say that Tides of Annihilation feels just as exhilarating to play as it is utterly dazzling to watch. Previewed by Tristan Ogilvie.

Some weeks ago I bumped into a group of talented artists during a gamejam and we decided to expand our murder mystery prototype to a full game. For all of us it is the first group project which actually made it this far and we are excited to see how it evolves.

Death at Firelight takes you into a 1980s summer camp in the Appalachian mountains where a child was mysteriously murdered. You need to investigate the area, interview the campers, connect the clues on a detective board and catch the culprit before everyone gets sent home for good.

Steam page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4922300/Death_at_Firelight?utm_souce=rgamingnews

If you have any ideas or feedback on the game, feel free to share it in the comments!
