PlayStation LifeStyle interviewed Stormcloud Games on its upcoming title, Brut@l, which was first revealed during PSX 2015. The studio talks about its relationship with Sony, showing off the game at PSX, and more.
Shacknews talks to the developers at Stormcloud Games about the process of recreating classic roguelike adventures in a contemporary game engine.
Chalgyr's Game Room writes:
Brut@l has a striking aesthetic that tries to brush up on the ASCII dungeon roguelikes of old and modernize the formula some in the process. In the end, Stormcloud Games gets more right than wrong, though a few frustrating quirks turn the title into a niche title that will not appeal to everyone.
COGconnected says: Brut@l is an initially fun, frantic and visually engaging homage to the silver age of Rogue-likes, but commits too strongly to old mechanics.
Seems like a really cool and unique style of game. Great interview!
