Our opening showcase is TODAY! Today's game is Sleighers. Sleighers is a festive/anthro-themed networked multiplayer first-person shooter. Players battle each-other and land grab for their opposing teams, all while avoiding periodic weather events. (1/4)

Two days left until the opening showcase! Today's game is Mourning Brew. You died... and now you're a ghost! Stranded in purgatory with no idea why you're here, you decide to open up a cafe to chat with other ghosts and the grim reaper, and maybe learn a bit more about yourself! (1/4)

Four days left until the opening showcase! Today's game is Murder Most Fowl. Play as Athena Nox, who has found herself in the middle of a tragedy during her train ride. It’s up to this detective to put together the clues and solve the murder! (1/3)

A man has been found hanged in the dining car, but something’s not adding up to the natural conclusion of suicide. It’s up to this detective to put together the clues and solve the murder!

Collect evidence, interrogate the various passengers, and cross-examine them based on the clues. Use Athena’s mindboard to organize your thoughts, connect evidence, and create deductions to find new leads in the case!"

Four days left until the opening showcase! Today's game is Hadopelagic. Dive into the depths of the ocean as a lobster with sword arms, and fight off fantastical and horrifying creatures, as you attempt to reach the fabled forge in the depths of the Mariana Trench. (1/3)

You will fight various rhythm-based boss fights set to the album Pelagial, by the ocean. You must utilize your slashing, as well as your ability to parry and dash to avoid damage and slowly widdle down the bosses. As you descend, the environment and enemies will increase in both difficulty and surreality. Keep in mind, that if you fail, you restart a fight. However, once you learn the attacks and start to anticipate what is coming next, completing the fight will make you feel like an unstoppable killing machine."

Five days left until the opening showcase! Today's game is Botting Alive. In Botting Alive, you wake up in a coffin, and all you have is a broken Apple Watch with which you can only call some voice bots. Could you use it to get out of here? (1/3)
