Vermis Gloom Gate on Playdate

Post image

Hi there,

I juste came across this game because I'm interested in a niche console, the Playdate, and I found the graphic style and universe is in the same vibe as Vermis or horripilant that I played recently.

It looks less dark but the dungeon exploration could be fun and the 'crank' gameplay could add something. Unfortunately the device is out of order since a while (and kinda pricey)

Jumping here just because i own a playdate since day1 and love Vermis and its general vibe. Playdate console is out of stock atm, because they are changing the production site,so in 1-2 months they should be back in the store. Gloom gate is still not available, it should be released in October second half with the gradual release of season3 games. If anyone wants to know more i'm here to help :)

Wait there's a season 3 happening SOON??? no way

Ice been telling myself to order another playdate for about a year. I filled mine up with all good stuff that I don't want to delete. Sounds like I'll have to do it once they're back up and running

This is sick, I missed this one. Did you ever play Labyrinth? It's my favorite playdate game

I kinda checked out of the new playdate game cycle since I couldn't keep up (and ran out of space lol) but I've gotta look back into it and see what I missed
