Speaking of the zaniness and weirdness of most Anime from my last article, Boyfriend Dungeon, I was intrigued by another game announced during Nintendo’s live-stream of Indie World Showcase. Investigate crime scenes with numbers and puzzles, and interrogate a range of colorful characters in this sassy murder mystery; Murder by Numbers! Developed by Mediatonic (Fall Guys) and published by Irregular Corporation (Paleo Pines), Murder by Numbers will be releasing in early 2020 on the Nintendo Switch and Steam (Wishlist here).
Los Angeles, 1996. Honor Mizrahi was just an actress on a hit TV detective show. But when her boss ends up dead just minutes after he fires her, she finds herself starring in her own murder mystery. Teaming up with SCOUT, a reconnaissance robot (one that’s darn cute) thrown away after a mysterious incident, she sets out to clear her name – and a new detective duo is born! The soundtrack is even composed by Masakazu Sugimori (Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Ghost Trick and Viewtiful Joe).

This previously unnamed dinosaur game got my attention when I saw Jordan’s several concept drawings on Twitter. The adorable art-style and the friendly nature of these reptilian cuties made me want to find out more! Italic Pig, Northern Ireland’s game development studio, has just announced their partnership with publishers The Irregular Corporation, and Northern Ireland Screen. This is great news for this simulation game, now officially called Paleo Pines. Italic Pig has increased the size of their team and are currently working toward a 2021 release date!
About Paleo Pines
Paleo Pines is a casual social/management sim where players can become dinosaur ranchers. In a wholesome, friendly environment, dozens of dinosaur species are befriended, cared for and ridden into the wild to search for more and expand the ranch. The game takes inspiration from the relaxing, nurturing gameplay of titles such as Animal Crossing and Harvest Moon, and mixes it with the insanely popular collect-them-all compulsion of Pokemon. Players can tame and care for their new friends, befriend townsfolk, plant gardens, and encounter amazing creatures.

Dinkum, an RPG and simulation game is currently being developed by James Bendon and published by The Irregular Corporation. The release is marked as “coming soon” on Steam where you can wishlist right here. Essentially, Dinkum is a life simulator with town building elements. In Dinkum you will arrive with a group of explorers to a previously unexplored island. You will be tasked with building a home for yourself as well as helping the other explorers build their homes and businesses as well. The developer also mentions that you can attract more people to come live in your town.
Dinkum has a very unique premise as the environment is entirely Australian with Australian wildlife. This mean you’ll be dealing with a lot of crocodiles and kangaroos in the wild, and raising farm animals such as giant wombats and turkeys! There will also be several different biomes to explore such as a desert biome, a tropical biome with palm trees, banana trees and ferns, bush-land biome with swamps, etc. The term “dinkum” is even slang in Australia and New Zealand for meaning “genuine, honest, or true”.
