Sunamico releases Demo for Nebular Crush
/Nebular Crush is an action arcade shooter and platformer mix featuring over 50 levels and local two player co-op. It is still in development but a demo is available on itch.io. The art is reminiscent of 80s and 90s retro arcade games and it is a fast-paced action side-scroller with a unique cyber psychedelic visual aesthetic.
“Combining retro pixel art and modern graphics effects, the game immerses the player in a dreamy digital world full of glowing, shimmering, geometries populated by alien lifeforms. The player controls a guitar-playing surfer flying on a magical surfboard through a bizarre and abstract alternate dimension. The game demands both skill and cunning, often rewarding more clever and careful play over mindless button mashing. Easy to learn but difficult to master, Nebular Crush aims to appeal to both casual and hardcore gamers alike.”
Detective VR Now Available on itch.io
/Detective VR by Sixty Forty Games, another award-winning game at LevelUP TO 2017, has just been released on itch.io. Detective VR won second place in Technical Innovation and third place Best Overall design. Check out a gameplay demo for Detective VR below.
“In this 80s themed, murder-mystery game on the HTC Vive, you can explore the crime scene, pick up objects and interact with them as well as interact with NPCs. Once you’ve collected all the evidence, you can move onto the interrogation phase and interrogate the suspect by piecing together the evidence that you found to contradict what the suspect is saying!
Put your detective skills to the test by keeping your eyes peeled for the tiniest piece of evidence. You’ll also need to pay attention to what the suspect is saying. With your journal, you can keep track of all the evidence you found and can look back on it when interrogating the suspect.”

/Disco is Dead! by Third Floor Games is now available on itch.io. We had the pleasure of interviewing Third Floor Games about Disco is Dead! prior to LevelUP TO. You can read it here and check out some great screenshots of the game.
At LevelUP TO, Disco is Dead! won first place for Best Game Overall, first place for Best Technical Innovation, and first place for Best Artistic Achievement. It is designed to use custom controllers, but it's just as fun when playing with your keyboard.
