At PAX East, I mentioned I tried out 2 games in demo form. While not completing the whole demo I feel like I got just about enough information to write up these short First Impression posts. With that being said yes these might be incredibly short but I'll do as best as I can to sum up my experiences. One of the games I tried out was Revolution 60! Cosplayers It's Raining Neon and Bethany Maddock were there to promote the game with the outfits they made and after speaking with them, they encouraged me to try out the game so I did!
The demo was displayed on an iPad and fully utilizes touch controls. The game starts with choosing a difficulty level and you're thrown right into a sequence with main character Holiday. The scenes are coupled with quick time motions that you have to complete by following the path with your fingers. Gameplay itself is more of an RPG style with elements from games such as Mass Effect. In this case it's mainly how choice can affect the entire game as you play through. Combat is fairly straightforward with you moving one square at a time and tapping to fire your weapon which as a cooldown. You can move 1 space in any direction and as you dodge and attack you build up your special attack meter. When this is full, you move in for a strong attack. The graphics in this game are very mod like/old school and the all-female cast of characters is a definite strong point. As of now the game has had a successful Kickstarter and is set to release on iOS devices plus PC and Mac very soon! I'm definitely going to keep my eye on this and if you want more information, check out the Kickstarter link below! :)
