Aloof premieres today! Learn the story behind the game

Welcome to the world of Aloof – an unusual mixture of an exceptional art style and unique gameplay.

The game launches today, October 15, on the Nintendo Switch. Aloof was created by an extraordinary person – a former nurse in the psychiatric ward, cybercrime investigator, and finally autodidact in the video game development field.


DEMANDING EXPERIENCE
In the artistic world of Aloof challenging levels with multiple win conditions await you! The game has Tetris-inspired gameplay but at the same time is completely different and challenging.

BE INVENTIVE TO WIN
Build islands and protect them against your opponent. Move pieces left, right, down, and up! Take your time to think and create the best combination to repel an opponent’s attack successfully.



CHOOSE AND PLAY – SOLO OR COUCH CO-OP CAMPAIGN
Gather your friends or play alone if you like. Experience a challenging adventure in local co-op mode. Compete with your loved ones in 1v1 or 2v2 matches in the co-op campaign with puzzle levels, matches versus AI, rescue missions, and bosses!.

MEET CUTE CHARACTERS
Yes! Adorable animals included!

KEY FEATURES: 

  • Competitive puzzle-fighter – challenging puzzle game like Puyo Puyo Tetris, but plays completely different: Summon and defend small islands all the while you build combos against your opponent.
  • 23 challenging levels with multiple win conditions – destroy your opponent’s islands, seize all islands or take a risk and defeat your opponent before he seized a single island!
  • Amazing and unique art style.
  • Charming animals – you play as a cute and brave little bunny that battles opponents from the world of animals.
  • Solo and couch co-op campaign – experience challenging adventure alone or compete with your friends in local co-op mode.

AMAZING STORY OF ALOOF
The story of Aloof begins in… a closed psychiatric ward for schizophrenia. There is a nurse, Joram Van Schaik, working on it who helps in taking care of sick patients. But it was the field of IT that really interested him.
 
No, this is not the moment when our hero started making games. Although this thought had been with him for a long time. Later he worked as a cybercrime investigator, where he was mainly involved in hacking cases and encrypted communication.
 
In the meantime, he started making video games himself. He did not have any diplomas or specializations for it, because the only profession he had learned was nursing. But self-denial and undoubted talent have brought him where he is today. 

Joram has teamed up with RedDeer.games, the people behind Cyber Protocol, Art Sqool, Little Mouse’s Encyclopedia, and that AAA Clock everyone’s talking about right now. Together they bring Aloof to Nintendo Switch.

Sacrifice Your Friends, a Lovecraftian party game in cute horror style, will launch on consoles and PC later this year

Sacrifice Your Friends is a 1- 4 players party brawler inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft. The game was successfully funded on Kickstarter and chosen as a finalist in the Ubisoft Indie Series competition.

You battle your friends in dynamic, trap-filled arenas. This fast-paced party game in a cute cartoon horror style, created by Astrolabe Interactive, will be released on Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X and Nintendo Switch later this year, thanks to RedDeerGames.

READY FOR SHEER MADNESS?
There is nothing sweeter than a chibi Cthulhu. But don’t be fooled by the cartoon style, Sacrifice Your Friends is a true challenge.

The game is fast and dynamic, and the battles are intense. Randomly appearing weapons and various traps make you think on your feet and never stay in one place too long.

Of course, unless you want to be sacrificed.


FOR LOVECRAFT FANS

The Mountain of Madness or the Nameless City catacombs are places that every Lovecraft fan will definitely recognize. Story mode will take you and your friends to locations inspired by the writer’s novels.

Would you prefer to explore the universe of H.P. Lovecraft by yourself? No problem. The brave one can go on a dangerous journey all alone in a single-player mode.

WHO SAID THAT HORROR CAN’T BE FUNNY? 
Sacrifice Your Friends will appeal to everyone who likes good horror… with humor. Chasing friends with an enormous axe in their hands, killer tentacles, or the odd fish-folks mob of Innsmouth – it sounds like an epic party! 

Sacrifice Your Friends Trailer is now available on YouTube:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mphUqrfTuc8

Don’t forget to wake mighty Cthulhu up later this year with Sacrifice Your Friends!

“The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown”― H.P. Lovecraft, Supernatural Horror in Literature”

ABOUT  H. P. LOVECRAFT
H. P. Lovecraft (August 20, 1890 – March 15, 1937) was an American horror fiction writer. He is one of the most significant authors of supernatural horror fiction, known as the creator of the Lovecraftian sci-fi-horror subgenre.

Lovecraft is best known for his horror stories „The Call of Cthulhu”, part of the Cthulhu Mythos. In his stories, the author introduced demonic creatures with supernatural powers from distant worlds, including the world-famous Cthulhu, a powerful deity depicted as half man, half dragon, and half octopus.

Lovecraft’s stories have served as the inspiration for numerous films – „Cthulhu” from 2007, HBO series – „Lovecraft Country” from 2020, and video games – f.e. „Bloodborne” by Japanese studio From Software.
