Indie Grave Digger Warns You Not To Disturb The Dead


Home Groan Games' third person dig-em-up is out now, for a mere £3.99.

Fagus, grave robber extraordinaire, has his work cut out for him, in Home Groan Games' The Grave Digger. This third person action adventure has you, as Fagus, explore churchyards galore, Idiot's Guide to Gravedigging in hand, hoping to loot the place before the Soldier, Bride or one of the other spectral inhabitants catches up with him. It'll run on most machines, the developers promise, and there is a demo, but if you want to put up your cash it'll only cost you £3.99. A steal!

Home Groan is a very small independent UK studio, run by software developer Thomas Innes and occasional bookseller Joe Salter, both gamers since the 90s. "Throughout their adventures they've gibbed shamblers, frozen hamsters, built empires, cauterised stormtroopers, torched zombies, kicked tigers, slowed time, placed blocks, chased mimes around Paris, hacked supercomputers and capped innumerable flags," say the pair, "but now they're ready to add their own creations to the gaming landscape, preferably involving top hats."

If this sort of thing intrigues, head over here [http://homegroangames.co.uk/index.php] for a closer look. Just beware the badger! He can get grumpy this time of day.

If only a game about an pistol dual-wielding acrobat swiping dead people's pocket change hadn't already been made, this game might have had a slightly more appropriate title.

Looks kindof interesting, but I'm not sure if the guy in the video just wasn't really trying to get away or if you're screwed the moment The Bride sees you.

Seems like it's worth coffin up some dough.
You've made a grave mistake with that pun.
If only The Gentleman were here to see this, he'd blow a casket.

If only you could see my eye twitch after that series of deathly puns.

Pro tip of the day! If your game's voice acting is horrifically bad please don't open your trailer with it. People like me don't sit through the rest of it.

Oh God, the horrible texture and modelling jobs!

Easy, fella. Easy. It's an indie title by first-time devs. Betcha anything it's made on the Unity Engine.

Yeah, Sedate Me. You're probably right...

Eh, it'll make for a fun series of Let's Plays, I think.
