Strictly Limited Games have announced their newest project; an unreleased early 90s platformer shooter from DICE, yes, that DICE, for Sega Genesis and Commodore Amiga under the working title Project Hardcore. It'll be launching on Vita and PS4 in the first half of next year both digitally and physically.
A tweet from a Zeyboyd Games developer has marked Saturnine Games' Antipole DX for the Vita. It's a retro speedrun-oriented platformer with a gravity switching mechanic. There's been no official announcement yet, but it doesn't seem like a lie.
Hamsterdam, a cartoony rhythm brawler that appears to be controlled by touchscreen swipes, has been announced for Vita, Switch and mobile devices, and it's currently seeking eight thousand dollars on Kickstarter. It's a fair bit over halfway to that goal with 43 days to go. I bring this game up mainly because it looks almost 100% finished, and just needs that last push over the goal line.
And finally this week, we have two more announcements from Pixel.lu; their previously stated "it might it might not" game Plutonium Pirates has been confirmed to run on Vita and will get a release on the platform towards the end of the year, and have also confirmed that another game of theirs, a remake of the Atari 2600 game H.E.R.O. from Activison titled Bobby Bombastic will also be making its way to the Vita in the same time frame. That's it for this week.
I apologize once again for not being able to confirm a video date for Bullet Girls Phantasia because I have been not so great health-wise this week, The Long Reach was something I got recorded just before I went downhill. I'll make my best attempt to get something done for it this week, but yeah. Tetra's Escape is out on Monday.
