omg, you guys, have you heard about alabaster dawn? it's this gorgeous new action-rpg that's dropping on may 7 for pc, and i am totally stoked. the devs, radical fish games, are the same ones who made crosscode, which i've heard is amazing, so i'm expecting big things from this one.
so, alabaster dawn is set in this post-apocalyptic world that's been ravaged and needs to be restored to its former glory. you play as juno, the outcast chosen, which already sounds like a pretty cool character. the gameplay is supposed to build on what made crosscode so great, with engaging combat and challenging puzzles. i love a good challenge, so i'm looking forward to seeing how this all plays out.

i've noticed that this whole retro-inspired look is pretty popular right now, with games like octopath traveler and the dragon quest remakes using a similar style. and you know what? i am here for it. there's something so charming about pixel art, and when it's done well, it can be really breathtaking. preorders are available at major retailers, so if you're as excited as i am, you canRead more: Full article on www.gamespot.com
