Guerilla Collective Highlights

First up in our Not-E3 sequence of showcases is the Guerrilla Collective live stream. Like last year, I’ll be focused on the games that stood out to me the most, so be sure to check out the full showcase if you’d like to see the rest.

I didn’t have to wait long to see a game that got my attention. A Yooka-Laylee remaster would have been pretty low on my list of predictions, but Yooka-Replaylee was announced. I still haven’t played my copy of Yooka-Laylee, so I can’t help but wonder if existing copies will have an upgrade path or if it’s an entirely new purchase only.

Neon Blood, a cyberpunk 2.5D turn-based RPG also seems like something I should keep an eye on.

There also was another 3D platformer called Project Tides announced that looks… interesting? I don’t really understand what I saw in that trailer, but it’s intriguing at least.

The boss rush action game Light Odyssey also looks cool.

Soon it was time for a horror segment, with a look at Clock Tower: Rewind, a new trailer for Post Trauma (which we discussed a couple years ago when it was shown at the Game Awards), a new Five Nights at Freddy’s Game called Into the Pit, and a trailer for Hollowbody, which looks fantastic and is one I definitely want to keep an eye on.

Tactical RPG Demonschool continues to look intriguing, and Urban Myth Dissolution Center looks like a game for me.

An action platformer called Double Shake and a cute-looking platformer RPG called The Secret of Crystal Mountain also caught my attention, and so did a classic JRPG style game called Beloved Rapture.

New trailers were shown for Sky Oceans and Escape From Ever After, both of which we discussed yesterday. I’m also curious about Aethermancer, Slime Heroes, and Grifford Academy.

Overall, while there were several games that didn’t appeal to me as much, there were still a lot of gems in this first showcase of “Not-E3.” Stay tuned for tomorrow, when we’ve got the much-anticipated Summer Game Fest show!
