Indie Video Game Round-Up #1

First, we’ll mention the trailer for Protodroid DeLTA from Humble Games and Adam Kareem. The game gives me 3D Mega Man vibes and is a 3D action-platformer. It doesn’t just look like a Mega Man game though, the description sounds like one. You can do the stages in any order and get a unique weapon upon defeating the stage’s boss. My first impressions are that it looks okay, but definitely could use some more polish. With the game not set to release until 2023, there’s definitely time for said polish to be applied. You can add Protodroid DeLTA to your Steam and Humble (affiliate link) wishlists now.

Protodroid DeLTA is a fast and fluid 3D action-platformer set in a beautiful and hopeful solarpunk world, featuring a colorful cast of characters to meet, bosses to defeat, and hidden upgrades to discover.

Dynamic 3D action platforming – Draw upon DeLTA’s extraordinary dexterity and distinctive arsenal to navigate challenging stages. Jump and shoot in fast and fluid 3D gameplay channeling the 2D classics of the genre.

Discover a solarpunk world – Journey through the beautiful and hopeful (but not quite utopian) world of Radia, where solar power is dominant, and humanity and technology coexist with nature.

Take on stages in any order – Decide how and when to take on the Vypers. Pick from distinctive stages, fight personality-filled bosses on their home turf, and claim their unique weapons.

Vibrant characters – Learn the stories behind a diverse cast of larger-than-life Vyper Masters, rival roboticists, and other Protodroids who operate by a different code.

Seek hidden upgrades – Enhance DeLTA’s capabilities by searching for upgrades and power-ups, and master new blade techniques by locating your fellow Protodroid AnnDROID in each stage.
