There's this indie game that was released two months ago, and it completely slipped under my radar. It's called Downfall, and it's a horror adventure game.

As per usual with indie horror games, looks like this one would scare me to the point of defecation, so I'll have to fight myself to buy and play it. Here's the guy's AGS post, if you're interested to know what that amazing, rag-tag group of adventure indie developers and enthusiasts think.

The trailer in the first link freaked me out when that woman's stomach...well, you'll see. If you do plan on purchasing it (or trying out the demo: http://www.fileplanet.com/200070/200000/fileinfo/Downfall-Demo), know one thing that may be a deal-breaker to those hardcore adventurers out there; it looks like it's possible to die. Also, since this is a small title, there are a few bugs, but that sort of comes with the territory. It's like what Giant Bomb was joking about with 1C Publishing:
"1C Publishing: Our games mean well."

Thanks for the heads up, downloanding the demo rigth now.
AGS horror game sure sounds great, and the trailer looks good.

I tried to try the demo when it was first released but it never did install. So I gave up on it.

Wow, that really stinks. This game's a little too dark for me, but I can understand frustration at not being able to get my hands on something I really want to play. I'm still waiting, after all these years, for Iceman to release his sequel to Da New Guys, and I think I'm giving up hope. It was very Monkey Island with its' humor. Matter of fact, I think I've completely lost my AGS account from all those years ago! Now how am I going to keep track of LimpingFish or Herculean Productions?
Damn, another long ramble. I must be pretty out of it...
Also, I'd like to add that this takes the penalty of death to new heights, if you're not careful enough. There's a certain number of deaths you can have before you have to start over, and there's one point the creator alludes to that there are no continues, regardless of your current death count. This seems pretty amazing, similar to how I feel about Heavy Rain.

Well, i was trying the demo and it just CTD with a script error. Not a big deal since the 1.4 version on D2D is the latest and appears to be (almost) bug and typo's free judging from the thread at the AGS forums, and free of this particular script error.
The backgrounds artwork is great, same for atmosphere, and the soundtrack seems interesting. Didn't play long enough to get a real insight about the story but it looks decent. Character animations not great but not terrible either. All around there seems to be some room for improvement but i'm still getting it.
Thanks again for the heads up.
And wow, an AGS game with 1GB ram requirement.

It definitely looks pretty intriguing, maybe I'll give the demo a whirl later, but unfortunately I just can't justify spending anymore money on games, cheap though they may be.
I honestly think Indie games are going to end up being the saving grace of the entire industry, the big guys just end up designing games by committee and churning out games that are functional but have no soul.

but I can understand frustration at not being able to get my hands on something I really want to play
Well I'm kind of used to that given the large number regional restrictions I have to deal with on a daily basis. But yeah, after trying to download and run the demo a good 15 times or so, it was pretty annoying.

I watched the trailer on RPS a few weeks ago. It looked interesting so I'll give the demo a chance

Off topic, but picking up on the 'Downfall' movie (which I never saw) I can thoroughly recommend the book, it was a fantastic read.

Oh yeah, forgot about regional restrictions. I guess my situation is really nothing compared to the majority of people living outside of North America. Whoops!
Yeah, I thought that was pretty strange, too. I laughed when one poster on the AGS forums asked if it meant his 256 MB RAM system wouldn't run the game.

Have you tried installing AGS before trying to install the demo ? Or downloading the demo from another location ?

Yes to both. It simply refused to work. Doesn't really matter now. I no longer feel like buying the game even if it did suddenly start working.

Downfall is probably the most interesting adventure game I've played all year. Reminds me a lot of Dreamweb (hey, that was published by Empire - GOG-version, please!). Well worth playing, even though there are some flaws as well.
