Lightning Ghosts and the Rat Man.
Screenshot Saturday Sundays! In the midst of this hectic, kinda-sorta-not-E3 storm, perhaps you’ll join me in taking an afternoon away from the hype. Grab a cuppa, pop open your laptops, and let’s find some gems buried behind the glitz and glamour of professionally-curated showcases. This week: the rat-man rises, electrifying ghosts, an eternity in landscapes and the eye of terror.
Move over, Games Workshop - we’re starting this week’s screenshot rundown with a proper vermintide.

This isKing, Witch And Dragon, a self-described “reverse Metroidvania” from developer Andrey Torchinskey. What’s not quite clear is whether this man is quite literally made of rats, or if the rodents are summoning a fighter with their writhing bodies to do their bidding. From the looks of the game’sSteam pagethough, rats are only one of the critters tormenting this poor man - with the bloke sprouting wretched spider-legs, bat wings, while snakes writhe out of his sleeves like the worst children’s magician.
Now, I’m no scientist, but I can’t say I’d imagined ghosts to be particularly great lightning conductors.

Afraid it’s all been rather doom n' gloom with this week’s selection. If you’re looking for a lighter escape, may I offer you a stroll through Jamaican developer Owen’s procedural landscapes?

That’s about all we’ve got for this week’s Screenshot Saturday lineup. But mind how you spend the rest of the afternoon - someone, or something, is keeping an eye on you.

Taking the almost-compulsory “retro PS1 game wot looked creepy” slot this week is developer Toni Hughes. While it’s not clear whether this screen is part of it, digging through her works brought upAgony Of A Dying MMO- an in-development horror game set in the final hours of a dying MMORPG. LikeNo Players Online, that’s goddamn catnip for my extremely-online, nostalgic whims, and I’m dying to see more.
