Dare ye enter Da Trilobite Zone?

Screenshot Saturday Sundays! Unlike certain sea-dwellers on the site, I’ve already caved and cranked up the heating for a long, cold winter - so why not get yourselves toasty too and wrap up for another batch of lovely videogame screenshots? This week: picturesque platforming, sentient seeds, Welsh country horror, and trilobites.

Let’s start today’s session with a little art history, shall we?

Sticking with “novel platformers with neat looks”, our next entry is tumbling seeds at the bottom of the world.

Seedlingshassprouted up in this column before, but it’s always worth checking in on your plants to see how they’ve grown. What I love about this week’s post is the motion, adding a whole new level of depth to the photo-collage look of Bardsley’s botanic adventure.

Besides, it’s rare that a game takes us all the way down to New Zealand - rarer still for one to set itself in the valleys of Wales.

Hey it’s a spooky#screenshotsaturday?Here’s a few shots from Chasing Static, my lo-fi first-person psychological horror. It’s a puzzle adventure about being lost and alone in the Welsh countryside.#gamedev#indiedevpic.twitter.com/eCmipyc7b9— Nath H (@sickchickstudio)October 17, 2020

In a follow-up Tweet, Brady Soglin would like to apologise for any insinuation that the the ‘bites don’t bite - they have bitten in the past and will do so again. Take care in the zone, readers.
