Unveiling website for Death's Gambit

Posted by JMchaos on July 8, 2014, 5:48 p.m.

Hey guys! I haven't posted here since I was 16 haha. But since I'm working on a indie game again it felt appropriate to go back in time to post here again.

The game is called Death's Gambit,

In Death's Gambit become the agent of death, and rid this world of immortals.

Explore an alien medieval planet filled with horrors, beasts, and knights. Every new enemy encounter is a complex hack-n-slash puzzle to solve. Every piece of environment and mechanic tells part of the story. Use everything in your power to survive, no website guide will prepare you for the dangers you face.

Inspired by Dark Souls, MMO raiding and Spec Op's the line

I am one of the people working on Death's Gambit. I am a programmer and designer on the project. This is a game that had been in on my mind for years ever since I first played the original Demon Souls.

Very nice artwork. I just hope the game play is as good as it looks. (most of the time it usually isn't) Either way it sounds cool so keep up the good work! If you are going for a difficult game, you have to be very careful not to create a game that's brutal, unfair and frustrating. There's a thin line between engaging difficulty and rage-quit levels of masochism.

p.s. you might wanna warn people about large gifs on this page, it's been 2 minutes and they're still loading for me.

I love the visual style of this! And that fourth image reminds me of Shadow of the Colossus. Very interesting looking game.

Thanks again, seriously =D. @death nice name. Also yes our goal is to not cross the line and make something feel unfair, it will still be a very challenging game.

@Mega Sweet we got your email! We'll look through your portfolio and if it fits what were looking for we'll contact you soon!

This is where I regret deleting that head exploding gif….

Game Maker is not worthy of such a thing. I can hardly believe it.
