"Fractured Soul is a game where you have the power to jump between alternate realities and shoot robots. Sounds pretty generic, right? That's exactly what it should be! This game takes place on a space station, half of which is full of water, high winds, and scorching heat in one reality, and enough floating platforms to shake a stick at all around. It's a simple side scrolling shooter, where your goal is to get to the end of the level as fast as you can while collecting the optional bonus emblems, called "secrets". These "secrets" are used to unlock the extra 10 bonus levels with added difficulty and layouts to contribute to the main games 30 levels. The main game itself contains 5 different areas, each with its own twist on physics and dynamics."
Not sure what the precedent is for 3DS eshop games being ported to the PC; so Endgame Studios may be pioneers. Their former eshop exclusive, Fractured Soul, has made its way to GOG and Desura. Fractured Soul is a platformer(sometimes shoot'em up) that requires quickly moving between two realities.
OnlySP: One of the best things about PAX Australia was the dominant position indie developers held on the showroom floor. Great well-known Australian-made games like MacGuffin’s Curse, Antichamber, and Fruit Ninja made an appearance. But the real meat of the show was the score of smaller indie developers that filled every nook. Discovering the creativity that these talented individuals are capable of honing into a playable experience was a delightful expedition. The uniqueness and innovation that was on display refreshed the senses. And that showed in how busy the indie section constantly was.
A handful of games made by Australian indie developers will be displayed at PAX Australia in July, and the organisers have just announced which six have made the cut for the Aus Indie Showcase.
