Empyreal Nocture is a surrealistic blend of a 3D Gradius and Shadow Of The Collosus. It's the student project of just two guys, up in the IGF Student Showcase, and shows both considerably unique aesthetic as well as keen innovation. You control an arrow as it flies through the clouds, accompanied by a flock of little arrow, and stalk down huge hydras made of interconnected orbs.
Are you a megalomaniac who gets pleasure from the misfortune of others? Would you love to steer people into a direction that will cause their lives to come tumbling down? Then Gloom is the game for you. The object of the game, in fact, is to make your characters as miserable as you possibly can. Each player has a family, a group of characters that they then play event cards on. There are both good and bad event cards in your hand. The good events are played on your opponent’s characters to heighten their over-all self-worth points; the bad event cards are played on your own characters to lower their self-esteem. In your hand, there are also death cards and action cards. The death cards are very important, because at the end of the game, only your dead characters self-worth scores are added to your final score, and the player with the lowest score wins.
