Axiom Verge announced for XB1 -
MonoGame Support
Microsoft’s XNA programming framework isn’t supported natively on Xbox One, but there’s an open source solution for developers called MonoGame. This news is a little overdue, but we’re stoked that MonoGame support will be coming to Xbox One soon, thanks to Tom Spilman and our friends at Sickhead Games.
And we’re really excited to be able to welcome MonoGame with a bang, thanks to a partnership with another developer named Tom – Tom Happ. I met Tom at an indie dev event shortly after we confirmed that XNA was not natively supported on Xbox One, and I remember being super bummed that his game was not going to be able to come to Xbox One straight away. Well, today I’m stoked to be able to say that Tom’s game, Axiom Verge, is going to be one of the first games shipping on Xbox One using MonoGame. And hopefully that’s just the first of many!

The Turing Test is a first person puzzler from the developers of ‘Pneuma: Breath of Life’ that explores the phenomena of consciousness and challenges the meaning of human intuition. Take control of Ava Turing, an engineer for the International Space Agency (ISA), and progress through a narrated story of introspection and morality whilst uncovering the hidden mysteries of Europa. Delve into The Turing Test’s human interaction puzzles and arm yourself with logical and methodical thinking. Take on tests designed in such a way that only a human could solve them. In an evolving story based on mankind’s inherent need to explore, protect and survive; players search deeper into Europa’s ice crusted core and transcend the line between man and machine.
Investigate the truth behind the ISA research base on Jupiter’s moon Europa. Solve puzzles using your Energy Manipulation Tool (EMT) to transfer power out from one object and into another. Power up and take control of artificially intelligent machines, manipulate giant structures and solve complex tasks; all woven into a multi-layered story based on the human struggle for control. The Turing Test can only be experienced through the interactive medium of video games.
The Turing Test sparks your synapses into action in this electrifying new first person puzzler, as players learn the true cost of retaining human morality.
From the designer of the original Alone in the Dark and Little Big Adventure, comes 2Dark. You play as an ex-cop adrift ever since his children were kidnapped and he lost his wife in horrible circumstances. While searching for your children, you learn by chance of a similar case that took place in a run-down suburb of the sleazy town of Gloomywood. You decide to go there to dig up clues! And you aren't disappointed…
The object of the game is to rescue as many children as possible from the claws of psychopathic serial-kidnappers, and the task is daunting. You have to take on a slew of serial killers in their lairs, avoid their henchmen, and slip by their traps. You only have your trusty Smith & Wesson with you on your adventure, so you must rely on your skills and wits if you are to succeed. And that's not all! You then have to find a way out, accompanied by terrified and disobedient children. Over the course of the different levels, you will discover what has been terrorizing the town of Gloomywood!
