Chris Park of Arcen Games: "If you missed the announcement on our main news blog, Shattered Haven has now entered beta! I didn't quite have any video footage ready for the launch, but now I've got two for you."
Arcen Games: "Skyward Collapse and Shattered Haven have both gotten official linux support this week, but that’s not all that’s been going on."
Hardcore Gamer: The bare minimum gets you AI War: Fleet Command and five DLC packs, A Valley Without Wind 1 and 2, and Tidalis - a fun puzzler. Spending $5.80 gets you Shattered Haven and Skyward Collapse and its DLC. Everything in the bundle unlocks on Steam and soundtracks for everything are included too.
When you first start Shattered Haven, it gives the impression that it will be a Legend of Zelda like adventure game… with zombies! The overworld and various tools/weapons you find definitely have that vibe. Then about ten minutes in, the game introduces “levels.” That is, you can’t pass certain roadblocks in the overworld until you hunt down and beat a certain number of portals/levels. And that’s where Shattered Haven struggles to be fun.
