Screencheat is a chaotic split-screen multiplayer shooter that forces players to rethink the way they approach

Screencheat is a multiplayer shooter that forces players to rethink the way they approach conventional multiplayer games. Fast reaction times aren’t enough to keep you alive. When everyone is invisible, players will have to master the art of taking a not-so-sneaky look at their opponents' screens and working out where they are based on uniquely coloured areas of the map and distinctive landmarks. Melbourne based developers Samurai Punk say that by blending elements everyone loves from such classics as Goldeneye, Perfect Dark and Halo, they have shaken it up and given their own unique take on the game. Features include ten unique weapons and ten maps with nine game modes. Samurai Punk confirm to us that Screencheat heads to PS4 in 2016.

Take control of engineers and destroy the King in Castles. Castles is a medieval multiplayer puzzle-action game where 1 or 2 characters have to push or drag blocks to unite them in rows of 3 or more of the same colours (materials) or figures (tools). The player doesn´t take direct control of the blocks but instead controls engineers who are tasked with the movement of the blocks, giving a unique twist to the gameplay. The entire game takes place in a

7 x 7 tower composed of the central trunk (5 x 5) and the exterior ‘scaffolding’ which is limited exclusively to the players. The blocks fall from above in the central trunk, where the player can move the blocks by pushing or dragging them, always with the objective of creating combinations. When the goals of each level are met, the tower will grow higher. With the growth of the tower new dangers will manifest themselves via changes in climate or tougher enemies. These hazards are generated randomly, so the experience will be different with each game session. WhootGames bring Castles to PS4 in Q1 2016.

Coatsink Software’s SuperGlad was an unexpected little gem we came across at this years Rezzed at Tobacco Dock in East London.

The game looks unbelievably cute and is one to watch out for in 2016!
