Forticore

Forticore is a competitive arcade game pitting players of 2 different game types against each other.

Protagonist; As a cute bunny you will leap from platforms, over pits of spikes, through crumbling icecream caves as well as dodging airborne obstacles. Breaking down fortresses level after level. It is a twist on retro platforming games with real time interaction from the enemy side.

Dungeon Master; A unique spin on tower defense gameplay that will appeal to players of all skill levels. Your fortresses are being raided as well as destroyed, and it’s up to you to prevent it by strategically spawning defenses. With a Touch Screen interface allowing for a more hands on interaction and immersive gameplay experience.

Avarice

Avarice is a 4 player horror game where you fight each other over an antidote that will save your life. The game is played out in a fictive ghost town, inspired by the old English countryside.

All the characters have been poisoned. In order to survive, you need to find the ingredients and mix an antidote. But there’s one problem, there’s only enough antidote components to cure one of you. As the poison starts to corrupt your mind, you determine that you have to gather these components for yourself if you are to survive – taking them from the dead hands of your opponents, if that should be necessary.
