Four days left until the opening showcase! Today's game is Hadopelagic. Dive into the depths of the ocean as a lobster with sword arms, and fight off fantastical and horrifying creatures, as you attempt to reach the fabled forge in the depths of the Mariana Trench. (1/3)
Photo of Lober, a blue lobster with swords attached to his claws, and Little Guy (VGDev Mascot) with the Botting Alive logo and "GAME OVERVIEW" text.Photo with Lober and Little Guy with the title "Game Description" and body text: :"In Hadopelagic, you play as Lober trying to make it to the forge. You will fight various rhythm-based boss fights set to the album Pelagial, by the ocean. You must utilize your slashing, as well as your ability to parry and dash to avoid damage and slowly widdle down the bosses. As you descend, the environment and enemies will increase in both difficulty and surreality. Keep in mind, that if you fail, you restart a fight. However, once you learn the attacks and start to anticipate what is coming next, completing the fight will make you feel like an unstoppable killing machine."

Photo with title "What was your favorite part about working on your game?". Alex says "Writing the story of course. At first I just want to build a funny game shitting on UPS customer service, but later (and after I saw Adna’s concept art) I realize what I truly want to do is to use game to tell a story."
Below the text is a photo of an in-game CG of Callie crying.Photo with title "Are there any parts of your game you wish you could have polished more?". Alex says "A lot I would say. I think the major issue is that this game is \*very\* static. Like this is no on-going stuff happening, and guidance & hints are very limited. So the player will either lose their track or become bored really quick. Also in the demo we removed the time limit, but later I think that is actually crucial. Anyway I'm working on a new game (also called B.A.) and hopefully we will see the improvements there."Photo with title "Any other notes/comments?". Alex says "lober!!"

Photo with Callie and Little Guy with the title "Game Description" and body text: "Callie had a long nightmare last night. It began with a tense dinner with her family, following an ugly argument with her girlfriend Beth. She wanted to go back to her dorm, only to forget the room key…

That’s the last thing she remembered.

Then things got even worse. She quickly realized she was buried alive in a coffin. Sure Callie got a broken apple watch, but what could she do with that huh? As she dug deeper into the watch, something strange began to unfold, and the events of yesterday no longer seemed so clear. Details slipped. Doubts crept in. Was any of it real? And wait, is this description even how it really happened? "Photo with the title "Team Leads" and a photo of Alex.Photo with title "Tell us a little about yourself!". Alex says "I’m Alex, a 2nd year PhD student in neuroscience. I specialize in programming and writing."
Below the text is a photo of an in-game conversation on an Apple Watch.Photo with title "How did you come up with the idea/concept for your game?". Alex says "I happened to come across a game called COLD LINE, basically you have to call the White House via bureaucratic annoying voice bot to stop a nuclear weapon. That’s a cool concept and I also happen to hate those voice bots (UPS especially cuz I almost lost my packages). So I was considering an extreme case, what if you are buried alive and all you can do is to use your broken apple watch to get out of here. (there is even an irl inspiration, a dude in Washington state tried to buried her wife alive, but she somehow survived)"

Five days left until the opening showcase! Today's game is Botting Alive. In Botting Alive, you wake up in a coffin, and all you have is a broken Apple Watch with which you can only call some voice bots. Could you use it to get out of here? (1/3)

First up is Lightborne, a pixel puzzle platformer where you’ll play as Lyra, a goddess in training. By bouncing light beams and navigating ruins, you will slowly obtain the power of the Divine Prism, all while uncovering the secrets that lie within its broken shards. (2/7)
Photo with Lyra and Little Guy with the title "Game Description" and body text: "Long ago, humanity received a gift from the gods known as the Divine Prism, a source of pure light embodying truth and knowledge that filtered divine light into forms that humanity could comprehend and safely use. 

Yet, this harmony did not last long. As the humans’ greed for the power of the prism grew, fractures started to form on the prism’s shell until one day it shattered, its pieces sent to the corners of the human realm.

Lightborne is a pixel puzzle platformer where you’ll play as Lyra, a goddess in training.
