Against Adam’s better judgment and to Shay’s everlasting glory, tonight we took an hour or so to add Molotov cocktails to Overland, and some icons and ancillary systems to support them.

>> AVAILABLE NOW: STEAM - GOG - ITCH.IO - HUMBLE
Press Kit is available here! AND HERE’S A FANCY PRESS RELEASE THINGY Bits & Beasts has released its long-awaited game FEIST, published by Finji, for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Set in a forest full of hostile beasts, you play as a small silhouetted creature, running, jumping, and outsmarting a dangerous world trying to hold you back. The puzzles aren’t scripted; instead a robust AI system controls the monsters and traps that stand between you and the next area of the forest. The game world reacts to the player, and your decisions change the way the creatures and traps behave. Players have to stay one step ahead of the forest… or die trying. FEIST is fast-paced and clever. The atmosphere is spooky but also completely enchanting. Reminiscent of creepy cinematic delights like Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal and Norshteyn & Kozlov’s Hedgehog in the Fog, you will learn, and learn quickly, to be wary of the other creatures in the forest. Fortunately, you can use the forest itself as a defense mechanism – rocks, sticks, logs, insects, and even the traps themselves can be turned to your advantage. Each level begins and ends the same, but the path from start to finish is up to you. Outwit a forest that is equal parts smart and scary, serene and melancholy, dangerous and alive. Welcome to the world of FEIST! Availability and System requirements: FEIST is available July 23, 2015 at 10AM Pacific Standard Time. For Windows users FEIST will require Windows XP or newer, Intel Corei3 or better, 2 GB of RAM, Intel HD 4000 or better, Version 9.0 of DirectX, and 1 GB of space on the Hard Drive. For Mac OS X users FEIST will require OS X 10.6 or newer and Linux users should be on Ubuntu 10.10 or newer.

FEIST is fully localized and playable in 中文, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, Português, and русский.
Bits & Beasts is an independent developer of desktop video games based in Zurich, Switzerland. FEIST was 7 years in the making and is the first title by co-founders Adrian Stutz and Florian Faller. FEIST is published by Finji.

In keeping with our apparent Finji theme of “games that take place in the woods at a certain time of day” and our other “it sure is weird that Google Play won’t let South African devs list their games” efforts, we’re very proud to present A Day In The Woods for Android by RetroEpic, a drop-dead gorgeous sliding tile puzzle with simple controls and modern design ideas, all wrapped up with a fairy-tale-themed bow. A Day In The Woods will be available on the Google Play store on July 30th.
