More survival horror with Liminal Point

The craze for more indie survival horror games continues unabated with Liminal Point by the two-man developer team HideWorks. The game is far from release, being set to launch next year according to Steam. However, a five-minute trailer was recently released with uncut gameplay, which allows for a peek into the mechanics, and the setting.

From what I can tell from the gameplay shown, it will be a top-down isometric experience, with a striking looking female protagonist. Gameplay, and tone seems to be a blend of classic horror a la Resident Evil, accompanied by a psychological aspect much like Silent Hill 2. The combat also seems to be somewhat more involved than the usual survival horror title. Melee seems to be skill-based, requiring dodges and timing when to attack. Overall, things are looking very promising. Down below, you can take a look at the trailer yourself at the survivalhorrors channel.

Join the Airborne Rangers!

I noticed this little gem on X while scrolling through my usual junk. It’s a reimagining of a game from all the way back in 1987, called Airborne Ranger. And from what I have read, and seen from the trailers, it sure looks promising. A friend I showed the game to said it reminded him of Hidden & Dangerous, mixed with Men of War. I have to say, I agree with him, but I would like to add some Metal Gear Solid V into this blend. Airborne Ranger: FightOut promises a lot – from stealth, to tactical milsim stuff, all made for either solo play, or co-op up to four players. Since we haven’t had a good game in this style for ages, I’ll stay optimistic and look forward to it! I must add that it’s not out yet, and I didn’t notice a date anywhere. But I have a feeling we won’t have to wait for long. Check out the trailer below.
