Anodyne is a game that I'm really looking forward to. I noticed it when Steam first introduced its Greenlight service and it stuck with me. I don't know if it was the Zelda like graphics or gameplay that originally got me interested, but I do know that I kept checking that Steam page for information as often as I thought it would update. I looked for their website and bandcamp for a demo of the in game music (which I love, I'll link it here).
Then IndieStatik did a piece on it earlier this month that just reaffirmed how much I want this game. In fact it probably made things a bit worse as it announced that Anodyne was now up for pre order. Thankfully the release price looks like it's only going to be $10, and right now the pre order is $7, so I'll just have to be patient to get some funds for it. Also, have a wee read at the Statik piece (here) as it goes into some details about the game and its weapon mechanics. I also just really like how the guy has written about the game, he seems as interested in the game as I am.
A demo's been released for download from the games website, you can get it here, and it's well worth a playthrough. It's the first 15- 20 minutes of the game, and if you don't like it after that, well at least you've tried it. If you do try it, let me know what you think. If you don't, let me know why. I'm always interested in hearing other peoples opinions on gaming, it's probably why I spend so much time on youtube watching gaming play throughs. If you want to get in touch or suggest a game for me to check out you can leave a comment below or contact me through twitter. Thanks for reading!
