Screenshot Saturday Sundays: Oversized vacuums, first-person sewing and the plagueHit ‘em with the sandals!
Hit ‘em with the sandals!
Screenshot Saturday Sundays! We’ve passed the midpoint of the year, readers, and while I’m sure this hellish 2020 still has plenty of garbage to throw our way, we can always count on this weekly dose of game dev screenshots to keep our spirits high each Sunday. This week: Dodging hoovers, a sickening forest, the cutest cyberpunk and crimes against fashion.
We’re starting out this week’s collection with a bit of sickness. I know, I know, we’re all feeling the quarantine blues, but that hasn’t stopped our beaky friend here from breaking into the woods.

For a hot second there I thought that was a cowboy, staring out at the frontier like some sort of lightly toon-shaded Arthur Morgan. But as the camera dollies forwards, we see the plague mask, and the whole scene takes on a subtle, more sickening hue.The Serpent Rogue, a bleak little open-world that sees you navigating a diseased world full of magical beasties to concoct a cure for plague-ridden villagers.
I will admit to knowing very little about fashion, what with my wardrobe consisting of some jeans and a handful of black printed Uniqlo tees. But I cannot imagine blasting strangers with a sewing kit will brighten up their style.

You can throw sock gnomes at strangers, though, which really makes this whole “videogames” lark worthwhile. Fashion Police Squad is still in development, but you can keep an eye on it over onSteam.

Closing us out this week - While not a game per-say, I do hope Krzysztof Maziarz decides to flesh this gorgeous diorama out into something playable.
Ok, this is the last one experiment.#madewithunity#gamedev#screenshotsaturdayThanks@_moremountainsfor the amazing topdown enginepic.twitter.com/7gp6Ql3dsD— krzymsky (@krzymsky)June 28, 2020

I’m immediately reminded of Oskar Stålberg’sTownscaper, aprocedural building toyI’ve been watching like a hawk for months. Polish artist Maziarz’s little scene is a 3D reimagining of his previouscyberpunk mockup illustration(pictured in header), painting a Stålberg-esque tower in delightful rust and corrugated panelling.
Maziarz does appear to dabble in the occasional jam game, and I’d love to see how far he takes these delightful dioramas.
