ROCK OF AGES and HAMILTON'S GREAT ADVENTURE

[Sheepo]

Two awesome indie games you haven't heard about in one thread? YES.

From ACE, makers of Zeno Clash:

Rock of Ages, a game where you play as a giant boulder destroying Monty Python-esque representations of art history.

For Rock of Ages we chose to have different levels of the game represent different art periods of western art. The first thing I did was take out a notebook I had from an art history class, search the Internet for references of every period, and put it all in a big collage ordered like a timeline.

From FatShark, makers of Bionic Commando: Rearmed and Lead and Gold:

Hamilton’s Great Adventure, which is Indiana Jones with an awesome goddamn art style.

Game's website, with screenshots and art.

Both set to release this spring.

 

[Mr. Djees]

I would rather see ACE do something with story.

They both look.. uhh.. neat.

 

[the cow says moo]

I love the art style for both, but I don't know if either game is justifiable for a purchase.

 

[Krynn72]

Rock Ages looks fantastic, one I'll definitely have to get. The other one, eh. Not so sure. Will have to see gameplay of it.

 

[Sheepo]

Yeah, though I think the setting and visuals are great for Hamilton, I really won't be certain I care for it until the demo. Rock of Ages is most definitely a must buy for me though.

Any game that involves controlling a rolling ball is an instant purchase!
