The Developers behind Overload, the spiritual sequel to the Descent Games, have put out a playable teaser for their Kickstarter, and Draconusx goes hands-on!
What kind of game is Overload? If you had ever played and enjoyed any of the Descent games back in the mid-to-late 90s then Overload will likely bring back fond, nostalgic memories. If you are unfamiliar with Descent, then think of piloting a space ship at high speeds through a network of underground tunnels all while trying to dodge enemy fire and take out robotic enemies on all sides.
Carlos writes: "For those yet to hear of Overload, it’s a game that comes from the guys over at Revival Productions and part of the reason why it looks and feels a lot like the aforementioned Descent - for those of you old enough to remember Descent that is - is because the guys behind the development are indeed the same ones that created the classic title all the way back in 1995."
"The indies keep on coming so here are seven more games clearly inspired by blasts from the past." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
