Games released this week
A year after its official announcement, Cataclismo (Digital Sun) has finally arrived on Steam as an early access game. The base building game launched on July 22 and quickly became the 8th best-selling game on Steam. It also boasts a 94% positive reviews, which is absolutely outstanding!
The post-apocalyptic title follows the remnants of human civilization as they struggle to survive against those who yearn for their extinction. Players will improve their fortresses to resist the enemy attacks. But they won’t just have to repair the ramparts, but also develop more effective defense methods and, at the same time, expand the facilities taking into account the needs of its inhabitants.
In October 2023, Digital Sun launched a Kickstarter campaign with a humble goal of €30,000. Cataclismo was successfully funded just a week later, raising €108,594 by November 10. In addition to all the promised content, the game incorporates additional features such as a Photo Mode, a blueprint creation tool and a survival mode thanks to its backers.
Get it with a 20% discount until August 5 and lead humanity to a brighter future!
From rebuilding a civilization to starting a new life in outer space — let’s talk about Farlands! This new and colorful farming simulator, out now as an early access game on Steam, is a collaboration between YouTube star Eric Rodriguez of Leyendas & Videojuegos and indie publisher Jandusoft.
In Farlands, you’ll receive an offer hard to refuse: an entire planet at a bargain price! And although it looks like you’ll have to sweat blood to make a small profit, you’ve made up your mind to buy it. This is the beginning of your new life, not only as a farmer but as a space explorer. In addition to visiting unique places, you will also make new friends and other beings who will change your destiny.
After the arrival of Farlands, Jandusoft released Abathor. This 2D action platformer mixes the adventures of Conan the Barbarian and the mythical Golden Axe series. Together with your best friends, you’ll be on a mission to protect the land of Atlantis from countless abominations. Join forces to hunt them down until peace is restored and compete for the loot.
The best choice for arcade nostalgics and those who love hand-crafted pixel graphics.
