The Breakout A point and click Indie adventure!

So as we have just announced that we are having a Play Expo Blackpool week were we cover as much of the stuff we saw at the expo over the next week the first thing we are covering well after the traditional shaky cam vid is The Breakout. A point and click adventure targeted at the older gamer who may remember the classics like Money Island from its first time round and are looking for a more challenging point and click adventure that still keeps all those classic mechanics of the old point and click adventure games but with a more modern feel then this game is for you.

The Breakout is a game developed by Pixel Trip Studios and is currently in its last stage of fund raising over at kickstarter and looks to be a promising and great looking game. The visual style of this game is right up my street and as i have mentioned before I am a big fan of High quality  indie studios getting more support and coverage so as part of that check out my vid of the demo then if you like the look of the game why not call over give these guys a quid or two and help a good studio develop a good game I will put the link below here so go check em out!

                                                FIND OUT HOW FAR YOU CAN GET!

So if you liked the look of this game now take into account my nonsense commentary is not in the game so that works in its favor then click kickstarter.

Replay Arcade comes to Play Blackpool

One of the most popular features at the Play Expo events is always the classic arcade or the ‘Replay Arcade’ as they are often called. Throughout my many years as a Gamer I have spent what must be hundreds of hours and just as many ten pence pieces in arcade cabinets while I was on my yearly holidays to the great British Seaside. So it is really cool to be able to tell you that Replay Events announced that the Replay Arcade will be present and as enjoyable as ever at the Play Blackpool this May.
In a statement on the Website for Play Blackpool the following was said'

"With cabs supplied by arcade specialist RGP (Retro Games Party) we will have an eye popping array of classic and modern cabs, with a number of machines never seen before at events.

We will confirm which machines will be available nearer the time – of course feel free to send over your suggestions to us of what you would like to see. We can’t promise we will be able to bring every cab requested but we’ll do our best to have all your favourites!"


So if there is any Cabinets you would love to see at the Play Blackpool event get your suggestions in as for me I am going to be brushing up on my button mashing skills I will catch you in the Arcade soon!
