'The End?' Is a game that ends when the player thinks it should. It's a largely text based rpg. The player is thrown into a series of random events one after the other. Only after a player clicks 'The end?' button will the story finish. If the player loads up a new character, their previous characters can have their stories intertwine. Experience, items and more is generated as the player goes. All this may impact a player's future playthroughs. Players have a choice of a dnd style playthrough with other players. Each player's decisions and actions would affect and control the story. A story which only ends when every player meets their end or has decided that the stories end. Gameplays is sometimes spontaneous with limited time responses to certain scenarios, sometimes a scenario is too long to read and players must act instinctively. In the end there are no wrong answers as the choice will affect this story or the next.

A game that highlights the real struggle of uni students. Sleepy Assignments is a fun little app game which focuses around staying awake. We've all struggled with balancing assignments and sleep. The game expresses this in its core, work vs sleep. As the player completes more and more tasks, their tired gauge will rise. If it rises to much the player will collapse from exhaustion. However the player can manage tasks by sleeping at regular intervals. Sleep will bring the tired gauge back down. Sleep can however be interrupted causing players to shock back to work. If the player was in a deep sleep, a state that maximises tired regen, then the player will become disrupted. This nets a temporary buff but will cause much faster reduction in the tired gauge. If the player hops to in and out of sleep they can also gain insomnia or simply black out.

All that really matters is that Bill needs your help to get there. Bill must collect enough helium to float himself as high as possible.

They're balloons, what's it to them? Bill has a single life bar consisting of 4 hits. If Bill loses all his health he'll plummet down a few kilometres before getting his strength back. If Bill takes a direct headshot its game over and the player will have to start again.

He will just be travelling up forever.

For example a crucial locked door will open at exactly 3:25 pm on Tuesday, only once. The player would have up till then to figure out when that door is going to open and get to it by then.

In a time rife with superstitious the player controls a genuine exorcist. An individual branded with a connection to the more sinister side of the afterlife. Though many people think that to cure a soul of possession is some chanting and blessed water. In fact it usually involves a lot more stabbing, shooting, burning and generally unpleasant tactics. The player will control an exorcist of their own making in an open world adventure to purge the world of evil, both human and otherwise. The core mechanic that separates it would be the revenant feature. A player that has been in contact with dark forces for too long will eventually become corrupted. In this state the player's soul will actively enter another player's world as a unique high level enemy. In the players own world an evangelist will be summoned with the mission of 'containing the situation'. Should another nearby player turn revenant, the player is offered the choice of hunting them down for a huge benefit to their own world.

Then eldritch abomination maker is for you. It's a game for mobile platforms that is made for, you guessed it, creating unsightly abominations.

Dusty warrens is a game where the player controls a small lapin (rabbit) scout. Your warren has become barren and dusty from human industrialisation. For your people to survive you must venture out into the metropolis avoiding dangers such as trigger happy farmers, rush hour traffic and deadly felines. The game is slightly morbid. No content of blood and gore. Morbidity is expressed in the rabbits overly cute appearance which is an attempt to get us to look out how absolutely destructive we humans really are. If you can feel for a synthetic rabbit on a tv screen, how come you wouldn't do the same for a real bunny? Game uses rabbit instincts as powers. Exceptional eye sight and sense of smell can be toggled to fit with certain conditions. In order to survive this urban hell you'll need to be crafty and sneak around incoming obstacles.
