Being a giant, beloved video game blog has its downsides. For example, Joystiq sometimes neglect to give independent developers their coverage love as they get caught up in AAA, AAAA or the rare quintuple-A titles. To remedy that, they're giving indies the chance to create their own coverage and sell you, the fans, on their studios and products.
This week they talk with Robin Lacey, the managing director of Beatnik Games, about his company's brand new ninja robot multiplayer action game Plain Sight.
Hardcore Gamer: The newest Bundle Stars deal is available, and gives you Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet, Blood of the Werewolf, Slender: The Arrival, And Yet it Moves, Dock Clock: Toasted Sandwich of Time, Plain Sight, and Snuggle Truck for a mere $3.49.
Gamesta.com announces the latest indie deals with Indie Royale's new Mayhem Bundle that packs 6 games, redeemable through Steam, out of a possible 7 titles. there will be tons of shooting, explosions, horror and even some puzzles in this package.
indiePub has published an interview with Beatnik Games, the independent development team that created Plain Sight.
From the interview:
"indiePub: Please describe Plain Sight...
Sherif Aziz: Suicidal Ninja Robots in Space. You only bank your points once you detonate.
Damien Cerri: Plain Sight was our first game which kind of evolved during development. It was very experimental and started out as something totally different and got to where it is with trial and error."
