Some of those are truly fantastic. If Cloudberry Kingdom gets the balance right and doesn't end up punishing and frustrating then it could be great. The multiple replay feature is hilarious too. More games should use that. :lol:

Duality ZF





Thanks for the Duality ZF mention. Very sad, but it looks like Duality ZF did not make it into Dream Build Play. We won't post any details on why until we know for sure. We have contacted Dream Build Play to see if our submission worked, but we are fairly positive it did not. Either way, the game will be released soon, perhaps even sooner than expected (if we don't have to wait for DBP placement and the potential opportunity that could arise from it).

EDIT: And how could I forget... I wish all the others good luck in the contest. As you can see, some of the entries are downright amazing. I'm honored just to have a game in the same list as them.

Hollandia looks lovely:

Trailer can be found in one of qupe's posts above.

No idea if these two Japanese games are any good (that's what the trials are for I suppose), but I saw them mentioned over on GAF:

コロンでジャンプ (the main character is called Colon :P)

フェナックむら ものがたり (lots of Japanese text in this apparently, but it's a Zelda clone by the looks of things so how hard could it be? ;))

Wow, only seen a few of the videos but some very impressive stuff! I never expected the indie/community games to be so interesting whilst actually having really nice graphics either. I've really got to keep more up to date with videogames!

There is no doubt that game is very charming graphically, but I found it to be a bit of a weak platformer. Basically everything kills you in it, even stuff you would think wouldn't harm you at all! Still, at 80 points it is hard to complain about something that appears so well made so if you get along with it better than I did then it's easily worth the points.

Rllmukian 'mr_square' has a game up now:

Think of it as Dotstream, with added funk. Adaptive music, local multiplayer for up to 8 people, music creation mode, and online leaderboards.

Let me know what you think :)

That Magnetic Mind video makes it look like Little Big Planet for the 360 - in terms of look/platforming if not in terms of the level creation aspects.. awesome looking stuff.

Bit Stream looks great. I'll have to check it out. I've missed it until I saw it here.

It's a Zelda game, not that I have ever played it.

Just watched a lot of this years Dreambuild entries and I'm really impressed by a lot of them. The games look light years ahead of the previous years entries, I'd be tempted to buy quite a few of them. People must be getting really comfortable with the XNA Game Studio these days.

Nintendo don't seem interested in making a sequel so it's about time someone stepped up and filled that gap in the market. :D
