Let's face it, nothing important happens in December. I'm scheduling 24 advent calendar posts this week and then spending the rest of the year eating boxes of Cadbury Mini Yule Logs Triple Chocolate.
So it's no surprise that Devolver have announced their remaining slate of games aiming for release in 2024 are actually coming out in 2025.
The games that slipped are Baby Steps, Skate Story, and Stick It To The Stickman. Devolver released the news with typical style, via the 15th annual Devolver Delayed awards, which you can watch below.
I enjoyed the in memoriam section for games that released this year which can therefore no longer be delayed, all of which are currently available at a discount via Devolver's autumn sale on Steam.
Baby Steps is the pick of the Delayed Three that I'm most looking forward to. It's a literal walking simulator from Bennett Foddy and the makers of Ape Out in which you pilot limbs individually to steer your pyjama-clad protagonist up a mountain, like a marriage between QWOP, Getting Over It, and whichever third-person game with a mountain you care to choose from.
