With this year's not-E3 looming into view, the season of announcements is almost upon us, and publisher Humble Games has slipped in there early with another showcase detailing its upcoming slate of releases. If you missed the main event — or simply require a bit of a refresh — here's everything, both known and previously unknown, featured during tonight's show.
First up is a sequel to Contingent99's popular top-down 2D roguelike Wizard of Legend. Developed by Children of Morta studio Dead Mage with guidance from Contingent99, Wizard of Legend 2 takes the first game's compelling roguelike core and spruces it up with 3D visuals, expanded storylines, new Arcana, and online co-op for up to four players wishing to explore its ever-changing challenges together. So far, this one's confirmed for release on Steam.
The first game from animation studio and developer Exit 73, #BLUD is a 2D hand-animated adventure about teenager (and, importantly, vampire slayer) Becky Brewster. It's described as a «creative take on the traditional action-RPG» and sees players balancing «school, friends, field hockey and fiend-slaying» as they attempt to save their classmates, town, and, ultimately, the world. It's launching for PC sometime in 2024.
Developer Stormy Nights's Breeze in the Clouds is a cheerfully presented 2D action-adventure starring a brawling corgi named — what else? — Breeze. It sees our fluffy hero transported to the world of Tropolis, where he must use his newfound weather-based powers to battle enemies and traverse weather-inspired biomes to stop a nefarious pollution plot. Breeze in the Clouds is due to launch on PC at some currently unspecified future point.
