It was high time to meet our brothers in suffering, some of the nations who lived under Communism for decades. So this week, we'll be showcasing Black The Fall at Blon, Animation and Video Games Festival in Klaipeda, Lithuania. Cannot wait to see all the games that will be showcased and meet fellow developers from the Baltics.

When it comes to Communism, Berlin knows a thing or two about it. Just look at all the city's landmarks that whisper in your ear: "Remember, remember!".

So, we are proud to be showcasing at Indie Prize Berlin, together with our friends at Rikodu, creators of Second Hand: Frankie's Revenge,  and Titutitech, the creators of Oh My God Heads!.

If you happen to be in:

• Klaipeda 3-4 Feb or
  
• in Berlin 7-9 Feb,

do stop by the Black The Fall booth and give freedom a try.

Last week we shared with you our favourite games of 2016 , still melancholic by the passing of such a crazy year. Then we figured it's a new year, hence it's the time to get excited for new amazing titles.  We turned to each other and started throwing names. This is how where our high hopes for 2017 go to:

..Schlicht - Visually relaxing and somehow challenging at the same time. A really nice treat.

Below - Indie, mysterious and dark. Or course, we're intrigued!

Black The Fall - Now, I swear to God, we are all really-really excited for this one to come out. Can't wait to create a new, more representative trailer.

 Far: Lone Sails - Is a lovely adventure game, where you have to manage a vehicle's resources, while driving into the unknown. Such a nice mechanic and graphic, you can't help falling for it.

For Honor - Well, let's drink to that!

 Little Nightmares - For the right amount of cute and creepy.

Mass Effect: Andromeda - I'm gonna be this person!

Niche - Someone got enchanted while playing this cute & brilliant survival at Indie Arena (Gamescom 2016). Now I can't wait to play it myself.

Night in The Woods - We have another someone in the team who loves cats and creepy. But hey, seeing the trailer was "I wanna play that!" at first sight.

Oddworld: Soulstorm - anything that Oddworld has in mind for 2017, gets us excited. Now seeing bits of Soulstorm had us intrigued. Can't wait to see more of it!

Oh My God Heads! - if you're looking for a fun couch game, this is the one right here. Laughter and friends guaranteed. If you want to befriend a stranger, just ask them to join you for this multi-player and boom!

Old Man's Journey - Eye candy and emotional? Yes, please!

Vampyr - 'Cursed be the choice!"

We Happy Few - An intriguing, disturbing and addictive survival horror. Gimme!

Last year it was a gaming feast and, boy, we fed our minds and souls! From saucy shooters to fizzy puzzlers, we tried it all. Today during lunch, we got a bit melancholic and a never ending discussion started on what made us tick last year. Actually, here is an open window to our studio. You’ll find indies, AAAs and some insight into who we are.

Head of the list is Cristi, who usually has the energy of an entrepreneur, an athlete and a comedian, all in one. An awesome one. This is not a commercial,  but a mere context.

1. Uncharted 4

2. The Witness

3. Battlefield 1

Next in line is Nico. She loves to question everything, has a keen eye on details, she's a perfectionist and a survivor. I mean, you can tell just by looking at this list.

1. Don't Starve: Shipwrecked

2. The Flame in the Flood

3. Firewatch

Razvan knows his stuff and more often than not, he knows something about anyone's stuff. his thing is being witty and playful.

1. Overwatch

3. Black Dessert Online

3. Everspace

With Adi, you get a nice deal: a very kind, smart and sweet guy who can say, in the cutest way: "No, thanks, that tastes awful". He's the artsy programmer.

1. GoNNER

2. Candle

3. NIVA

Licu is this beautifully strange person that can be so expressive, fun and flexible, but also insightful, blunt, detached and creative. I'm telling you, he's quite one of a kind programmer.

1. No Man's Sky

2. F1 2016

3.  Land's End

If it's dark, Andreea will love it. She's the curious, witty and brave artist so sometimes morphs into cats and then back into human, and then back into cats. Lovely dance, trust me.

1. Darkest Dungeon

2. Inside

3. Dishonored 2

Marius has a secret crush on details. He just tenderly loves those little monsters. Understandably, he must be the most patient and easy going person I've ever met.

1. Doom III

1. Dirt Rally

3. Event 0  

Andrei doesn't say much but when he does, it shall be witty, short and make us laugh. Regular stuff are utterly boring , so he's the go to person for the unexpected, the absurd or the beauty of the actual reality. Most definitely, a huggable philosopher-artist.

1. Genital Jousting 

2. Clock Simulator

3. Crap! I'm Broke: Out of Pocket

And I'm me, Biba. The connector :)

1. Samorost 3

3. Never Alone

2.  Mekazoo
