One Arrow, One Destiny

Titan Souls is a top down action game that gives you one chance to be killed or one chance to win it all. The game mechanics are simple. Find a Titan's week point and you can kill it with a single shot, but once you let loose your arrow you must retrieve it before you can try again. The game employs an 8-Bit art style that allows for very large areas. The game kinda reminds me of what the Legend of Zelda on the NES would of looked like if created in today's time. The Titans themselves act as the bosses in each area with each Titan having very unique game mechanics, strengths, and weaknesses. The game is designed to feel very rewarding similar to another "Souls" game I can think of. So don't expect it to be a walk in the park.

Titan Souls will be out Q1 2015 on the PS4 and PS Vita platforms.

From the Devs:
Between our world and the world beyond lie the Titan Souls, the spiritual source and sum of all living things. Now scattered amongst the ruins and guarded by the idle titans charged with their care, a solitary hero armed with but a single arrow is once again assembling shards of the Titan Soul in a quest for truth and power.

Kill Bill Meets Mega Man in Transistor

The Process, a bio organic AI, has taken over the city of Cloudbank and the secret organization who unleashed it are also responsible for killing your love and stealing your voice. Somehow the key to stopping it all is in your hands, the Transistor. Will you seek vengeance or will you strive to set things right?

Transistor is one of the most well put together games I've ever played. The music, isometric view, the mixture of strategy and action, the overall art style, and the futuristic setting just sets the game apart. All those elements put together sets a bluesy jazzy melancholy mood that really brings you into Red's world.

Your main obstacle in the game is the Process, but your overall goal is to take down the Camerata. The lovely Sybil Reisz, the ambitious Kendrell brothers Asher and Grant, and finally the genius behind it all Royce Bracket. With each encounter you absorb their consciousness into the Transistor granting you new abilities and bringing you closer and closer to the truth.

The game is out now on PC and PS4.

From the Devs:
Transistor is a sci-fi themed action RPG that invites players to wield an extraordinary weapon of unknown origin as they fight through a stunning futuristic city.

The game seamlessly integrates thoughtful strategic planning into a fast-paced action experience, melding responsive gameplay and rich atmospheric storytelling. During the course of the adventure, players will piece together the Transistor’s mysteries as they pursue its former owners.
