Independent publisher and developer Curve have announced a focus on PlayStation 4 development next generation and are offering a range of bespoke publishing services to indie developers looking to the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita as an alternative to the lack of independent support currently announced from Microsoft and the Xbox One.
“XBLA was a trailblazer last generation, so it’s sad to see Microsoft not announcing dedicated support for independent developers on the Xbox One.” said Managing Director Jason Perkins, who started his own game development career as an independent developer on the Commodore 64.
Stealth Inc 2: A Game Of Clones is a challenging and fun puzzle platformer in which the character controls a clone trying to free itself and others from a testing facility. The game seems a like curious mix of the serious Xbox 360 arcade game, Shadow Complex, and the much loved indie game, Fez. It's undeniably cute, but the premise surrounding the puzzles and platforming exploration of the game can also be very dark.
A Game Of Clones was preceded by another play-on-words titled game called Stealth Inc: A Clone In The Dark. This first game was originally called, I kid you not, Stealth Bastard when it was originally released. In addition to a better title, A Game Of Clones is also a more robust and polished product than its predecessor.
J Station X: Brutally difficult twin-stick shooter Iron Fisticle has added a challenge mode in its latest update. A new trailer has also been released.
Although probably tweeted as a joke following the announcement that developer Devolver wants to create a new Seaman title, developers Curve Digital and LoPoly Games shared their own thoughts on creating Shenmue 3 and a Sonic game.
Let sonic die already or sell it to ninty so they can do something good with him.
God damn you..,Give me the game Sega . Tired of being teased. I wonder if it will ever happen.
Not funny!very bad joke.We want a Shenmue 3 why joke about it of your not ganna make it smh.
We keep hearing conflicting story's about Independent gaming on the 360.
Some say it was awful some say it was great.
The 360 has a dedicated marketplace for Indie games and there seems to be all sorts of games on that.
I wonder what the truth is.

That just sounds like typical PSFB jargon. Can you prove it.
