A New Game Publisher Appears…Humble Bundle!

No longer just a charitable digital retailer, Humble Bundle is now an indie games PUBLISHER and they are launching with four amazing indie games as part of their “Presented by Humble Bundle” multi-platform funding and creative initiative. At PAX West, we got a chance to take a look at the games, and here they are:

 

A Hat In Time – (PC, Mac, Xbox One, PlayStation 4):

A Hat in Time is a adorable 3D collect-a-thon platformer developed by Gears for Breakfast that holds the honor of being one of the largest Kickstarter-funded indie 3D platformers, reaching almost 1000% of its original Kickstarter goal! This charming adventure channels the spirit of beloved genre-based games such as Super Mario 64, Banjo-Kazooie and Psychonauts. Grant Kirkhope, the composer for Banjo-Kazooie, is even a composer for A Hat in Time!

As Hat Kid, a little girl with a lot of heart and a powerful punch, travel through five incredibly diverse and giant open worlds, smack around baddies and unlock sweet new hats with all-new abilities. Enjoy your trip through massive worlds like Mafia Town, Subcon Forest, Battle of the Birds, Alpine Skyline and two free DLC worlds post-launch!, and protect the world from the evil Mustache Girl!

No Truce With The Furies (PC):

Explore the gorgeous seaside city of Revachol as a disgraced detective lieutenant and solve one last murder case that’s rooted deeply within the city’s core. Shape the type of law officer you want to be through No Truce With The Furies’ twenty-four unique and finely crafted skills that represent real human psyche and physique. Expect absurd new heights of story combat as action is handled through quick-witted dialogue which can steer your moral compass in any direction. Wander inside a representation of your mind in the metaphysical Thought Cabinet to examine your own doubts, conflicts and memories, guiding your in-game dialogue choices.

Aegis Defenders (PC, Mac,  PlayStation 4):

This enchanting title reignites the magic and imagination of old-school adventure games like Final Fantasy and Super Metroid. Blending Metroidvania-style combat with Tower Defense strategy and a charming narrative setting, Aegis Defenders sets the stage for an instant classic. As Ruinhunters Bart and his granddaughter Clu, save the world from the ruthless Empire. Find Aegis or perish!

Keyboard Sports – Saving QWERTY (PC, Mac, Linux):

Use every single key and fall in love with your least sexy controller. Keyboard Sports – Saving QWERTY is a humor-filled adventure with very little actual sports in it, but it’s filled with challenges that only ramp up once started. You play as the young apprentice to Master QWERTY, who sets you off on a visually and audibly stunning adventure to find your inner key — your entire keyboard is your controller!
