Bob Webb, founder of Next Gen Pants, shows off the PAX East 2014 demo of Tetropolis, a metroidvania-style exploration and puzzle solving game that has players taking on the role of a tetromino.
Tetropolis was one of our favorite games on display at this year’s PAX East convention. The Metroidvania-style puzzle platformer puts players in the minos of a pair of deformed tetrominos as they attempt to escape the obstacles laid out before them.
PAX Prime in Seattle is one of the biggest video game fan events in the world, and Xbox was there showing off some of the exciting upcoming games for Xbox One. But with all of the amazing upcoming ID@Xbox games in the works, there was too much awesomeness for one convention to hold.
I have to agree with you. Looks like it would be hard to put down! simplistic yet enjoyable. Also Warframe great addition.
I have to add, what's someone's motivation for disagreement with any of these comments and, why wasn't I disagreed with as well?
This ID@XBOX is amazing, The competition between the consoles are driving the two company's to give us so many more options than past generations.
You forgot to wave around your pom poms. Also, everybody knows that ID@ is worst than Sony's indie program
I'm really impressed by some of these games coming out. Keep up the great work guys.
Fulgar the barbarian....From the time I saw the references to rastan, I was like "yeaaaah booooy!" I loved that game on my commodore amiga!
Looking forward to these games!
Microsoft has announced its lineup for this weekend’s Penny Arcade Expo in Seattle, Washington. In addition to welcoming people to campus to sample ID@Xbox titles, there will be a significant Xbox presence at the show.
If you’re in Seattle, you can get hands-on time with Sunset Overdrive, Halo: The Master Chief Collection, Forza Horizon 2, Killer Instinct Season 2, Ori and the Blind Forest, IDARB, Project Totem from PressPlay, and Dragon Age: Inquisition. A new Age of Empires mobile game, Castle Siege, will be available in a separate booth.
Yeah, me too. It's crazy because I've never been to Seattle but I'll be there in mid September for work related reasons, to think if I could have got that lucky to be there at the same time as micro's PAX show, I would have tried to get over there somehow. lol, damm.
I really wish for the return of demos. The wait for these games are killing me.
Demos where never really an accurate representation of the full game. Either were from early builds, or had semi-god-modes on. Gimped in the player's favor.
Not about accuracy/final build for me. It has always felt good to get a little early access of upcoming games, especially games I am most excited about. Sheer fun factor my gamer friend. Game on.
Can't wait to get my hands on that game. TJ is going to be included in sn2. Wish I could try out all these games though.
Even if it's just a puzzle platformer, the graphics are quite nice! Reminds me of this one indie game I got on Steam called NightSky.
This looks really cool, interested to see how it turns out.
Really liking the look of the game, hope to see more soon.
Looks pretty cool. Will have to check it out.
