Four More Small Games From EGX 2015 That Attracted Crowds

27th September, 0 replies

The other day I highlighted some of the stand-out titles on the EGX 2015 show floor that caught my eye, but EGX 2015 played host to a wealth of great indie experiences. Here are some of the more notable examples, and games that anyone who appreciates a good indie title should keep an eye on.

Lumo

Lumo actually caught my attention prior to the event after Rising Star Games e-mailed me a press release for the game. The marketing materials alone set it apart, featuring cute aesthetics and a highly polished look. Unfortunately, I wasn’t the only person that felt this way about Lumo - the wait to play the game was considerable.

But it was well worth it. Lumo is inspired by dungeon crawling games of yesteryear and puts you in control of a little mage (not too dissimilar to the little black mages in Final Fantasy IX) who travels through tiny, stylised rooms. Each room is highly detailed and includes its own distinct puzzle/platforming segments that you must overcome.

Lumo is one game to seriously look out for. Whilst it may look cutesy and simplistic, it appears to have a level of depth and longevity that is often lacking in single player indie games that garner initial enthusiasm based largely on their aesthetics and charm. Lumo is set to release next year.
