Future Vibe Check
While it may have some gameplay similarities to otherfactory simulators likeFoundry, Unwise’sFuture Vibe Checkpresents a unique narrative framing. Incorporating elements of existentialism and Buddhism, the rhythmic debut of developer Manik Bhat is a factory-automation game that has the player generating music and engaging in rhythm games. Based on the vastness of infinity, the player is tasked with finding harmony in accordance to the ‘vibe’—mining and manufacturing vibes to rebuild the universe from its spatial oasis. The trailer shows a few peeks at gameplay, as well as the deity-like figures the player will be interacting with in their endeavors.Future Vibe Checkis now available to wishlist on Steam.
Town of Zoz
Built by talent fromstudios like Riot Games, Blizzard, Bethesda, and Moon Studios, Studio Pixanoh is an indie developer that’s new on the scene—andTown of Zozwill be its debut. The game follows Ito, who reluctantly returns to his hometown of Zoz to help his family with their farm and restaurant. Ito’s questing, combat, and investigation of the town’s ancient secrets are foregrounded by the needs of his family’s business.
Indeed, Ito is motivated to adventure by the various dishes the player can cook up throughout the game. In addition to farming, cooking, and going out into the Zoz community, Ito will have to strike out into the wilds around town to slay a menagerie of creatures, harvesting their components for different dinnertime delights,similar toDelicious in Dungeon. Ito’s soul-infused machete is his primary weapon, but the cooking mechanics of the game will also be an important tool—particularly when it comes to dealing with townsfolk.Zoz’s combat chef protagonist will need the help of these NPCs, whether they be legendary heroes or local shopkeepers, and will need to cook their favorite dishes to build these bonds.
Wild Blue
Wild Blue, a title helmed by Chuhai Labs, is an upcoming spiritual successor tothe on-rails space shooterStar Fox. While the game’s teaser doesn’t show much about what the game will look like, it does feature a short appearance by Giles Goddard, who previously worked on theStar Foxseries (in addition to being the programmer behind theSuper Mario 64menu screen face). This cementsWild Blue, to a certain extent, as a spiritual successor in the vein of indie games likeYooka-LayleeandBloodstained, both of which also cropped up during droughts in the franchises they derive from.
