DIYGamer: "As the Indie Games Winter Uprising promotion has unfolded for the XBLIG channel over the last month or so, some have debated (a bit prematurely I wager) that the experiment had failed in some form. While I believe we’ve yet to obtain a clear, final consensus on what the event has and hasn’t done for indie developers on the 360 console, there is one thing that isn’t debatable: a lot of people really like its lead-off hitter Epic Dungeon."
DIYGamer: "Eyehook Games had one of the better sleeper hits in recent memory with its XBLIG roguelike Cursed Loot (formerly Epic Dungeon), and now they’ve grabbed our attention again with some gameplay footage from their next effort Cursed Cosmos (formerly Azure Void). The game is a step in another direction genre-wise for the developer, who promises a randomly generated galactic trading game with a real-time dynamic economy, real-time space battles, customizable ships, asteroid mining, and more."
Gary Hartley Writes: Epic Dungeon does itself credit by showcasing the best elements from years of Rogue-liking, but then manages to stand out of the crowd by daring to be different. Successful runs can last a matter of hours, premature ones a matter of seconds, but there’s always reason to come back and try again.
Find out how developers feel about the Indie Games Winter Uprising event, and whether or not it was a success at bringing attention to indie games on the Xbox 360.
really fun little indie game. If you are a fan of Rogue-likes then this one is a no-brainer for $1.
