Upcoming Indie Game ‘Dryad’ Draws Inspiration From Solid Sources

Published

We generally don’t receive many emails directly from indie creators to check out their work, but the ones we do get have some cool premises to them. Case in point: Dryad by Ultranite, a point-and-click free roaming game inspired by films like Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man and the classic Bride of Frankenstein. You can currently check out on its Game Jolt site. The game will also see a release on Steam and on itch.io (naturally).

Dryad centres on Josh Miller, a true-crime author who is in the process of writing a book based on “The Tellus Murders”, an incident which saw four camp counselors brutally murdered. As any good writer will do, Miller heads to the campgrounds in order to do a bit of research. However, as you would expect with how these things go, Miller ends up in over his head, having to escape.

Currently, the game is still very much in development, but according to the developers, we should see a demo for the game “in the coming months”. This is important, since the game already has a release date of April 22 of next year. We hope to hear more about Dryad as the development continues.

The full release of V Rising is coming up quick. And just in case the upcoming Castlevania crossover wasn’t enough, Stunlock has released a new gameplay trailer showing off the new Ruins of Mortium endgame zone for V Rising.

Once the heart of the powerful Vampire civilization, the Ruins of Mortium now lies in ruins, teeming with the cult-like remnants of Dracula’s forces. Players will encounter the Draculin, creatures tainted by Dracula’s influence, and face off against his Vampire Generals. The ultimate challenge awaits as players journey into the depths of Mortium to confront Dracula himself. While battling through his forces and disrupting dark rituals intent on reviving the ancient Vampire king, players will uncover ancient powers and prepare for the ultimate showdown against the tyrant himself.

Ruins of Mortium is just one piece of the new content for V Rising when it launches in full. Here’s a rundown of what to expect:

  • Explore a new deadly endgame zone: The Ruins of Mortium
  • Experience dynamic endgame events
  • Fight a new breed of foe and new V Blood bosses
  • New weapons, A new tier of equipment, and magic improvements
  • Improvements to castle building, decor, and storage
