UNIQUE MECHANICS

Use your spheres to interact with the plants. Each species of plant or natural resource has its own sound gameplay mechanic to discover, learn, and master.

INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF SURVIVAL

Your suit has O2 filters for breathing, a battery to power it up, and methane for jetpack fuel. Balance them to avoid the inevitable and find resources on the planet to restore and upgrade your suit. Also, control a set of sound- and music-related functions.

MYSTERIES AHEAD

Immerse yourself in different atmospheric biomes while experiencing a deep and cinematic science fiction story. Interact with your AI, solve puzzles and scan the planet to uncover its lore and sound mysteries.

BEWARE

Not every plant is harmless. Some plants are attracted to sound in predatory or parasitic ways. Always explore weird caves and alien temples with care.

Historia and Shueisha Games have announced a new game during Day of the Devs: The Game Awards Edition 2025, titled UN:Me. The game will release in 2026 for PC via Steam. 

In UN:Me, you play as a young girl who carries four souls within her. You can control which soul will surface at any moment, but sometimes they will switch involuntarily as you play. Each soul has unique fears that will manifest at any given moment. Through dialogue, you will need to choose which soul is real, and which are false. The ones that are false, you must eliminate. Check out the first trailer for UN:Me below:

The Steam page describes UN:Me as follows:

A girl awakens in a mysterious labyrinth.

Four voices echo within her mind.

They are human “souls” drifting through this maze.

Each of the four souls seeks to fulfill their own desires, attempting to seize control of the girl’s body and act on their own will.

What are these four souls, truly?

Who created this enigmatic labyrinth—and why?

Who is this girl?

Through dialogue with each soul and by overcoming their individual traumas, you’ll navigate deeper into the labyrinth.

The answers await those who persist…

Within the labyrinth, souls hidden inside the girl seize control regardless of your intentions.

Each soul possesses unique skills and traumas—with every switch, both visible dangers and available actions transform.

Which “self” will surface next?

You must navigate the maze while contending with these assertive souls.

Each soul carries unique traumas carved from their past.

During exploration, the active soul’s wounds react, destabilizing vision, senses, and movement as they assault the girl.

Virtue and a Sledgehammer Announced, Available Now to Wishlist

Virtue and a Sledgehammer Announced, Available Now to Wishlist

Deconstructeam and Selkie Harbour have announced a new game, titled Virtue and a Sledgehammer, which Devolver Digital will publish. The game, announced during Day of the Devs: The Game Awards Edition 2025, is available now to wishlist on PC via Steam. 

Deconstructeam is primarily known for its work on The Red Strings Club. The developers describe it as a “game about realizing you don’t belong in the place you grew up anymore. At its heart, it’s a narrative experience. We explore this idea in an exaggerated way, with robots and a sledgehammer, all set up in a creepy ghost town.” You will break apart your hometown with realistic destruction physics, as you uncover memories from the past. The game also features smaller moments focused primarily on building the narrative. 

Check out the debut trailer for Virtue and a Sledgehammer below:

The Steam page describes the game as follows:

Most people resort to therapy. But you chose the brave option. A sledgehammer.

In Virtue and a Sledgehammer, explore the remains of your hometown haunted by the android ghosts of your digitized neighbors. There won’t always be a clear path, so create your own by knocking down any structures that stand in your way.

It will be a painful journey, not only because of the assault from the robots that have taken over life in the mountains, but because of the memories you’ll unearth—sometimes warm, but often traumatic—as you destroy the remnants of your childhood.

A game about family, traditions, and being a misfit.

You play as The Stretchmancer – a strong and conveniently silent hero with access to the power of The Stretch. Using this ability, you can STRETCH and SQUISH the environment like it’s everything-is-made-of-rubber-day at the accordion factory!

You’ll meet a bunch of weird and silly characters on your journey – some friends, some foes, some who haven’t quite made up their minds yet. Like your nervous turtle-pal Walt, your no-nonsense rival Casey, and the fearsome (according to him) Sgt Squish.

As you explore and solve puzzles, you’ll encounter dozens of unique obstacles that’ll keep you on your toes – from bounce-fueled goo to exploding headbands and even Armadillo Bill’s Rollticulated Rollerbombs™.

Laugh, grin, and shake your head at an absurd and fully voice-acted story inspired by 90’s Saturday morning cartoon vibes.

Features

    • Solve brain-bending puzzles!

Pick the venue, prep the set and make sure it all goes according to plan. Pull it off and the band might just finally take those first steps to fame and glory. Sure, this one was in a grimy basement, but even the rock legends had to start somewhere, right?
