February 3, Cologne – We all like to play new stuff, right? New games that aren’t available yet, and thus, nobody has played before. With participating in the upcoming Steam Game Festival 2021 Edition, Headup will take care of your needs, giving you the opportunity to play the brand-new demos of two games which are officially part of the festival, and one more many players are waiting for:

[Demo] Aerial_Knight’s Never Yield
Survive a futuristic Tokyo-style Detroit by running for your life in this first and all-new public demo. Accompanied by the amazing soundtrack from “Danime-Sama”, a Detroit artist who brings the authentic sounds of Detroit artists and vocals from artists of color from all over the world; something you won’t forget too soon!

[Demo] Scarlet Hood and the Wicked Wood Scarlet Hood’s release date was postponed a bit earlier today, but you will be able to play this story-driven adventure now already with this public world-premiere!

Solve ludicrous puzzles and travel through a vibrant Oz-esque wicked wood leading the hapless Munchkins. Relive seven days of misfortunes cast by the Black Witch, with each death representing the new opportunities to branch the adventure in exciting new ways, leading to different outcomes and multiple endings!

[Demo] INDUSTRIA
This first-person shooter takes you from East Berlin into a parallel reality, shortly before the end of the Cold War. On the search for a missing work colleague, you decipher a dark past in a mysterious parallel dimension.

Bleakmill consists of two individuals: David from Berlin, Germany; and Steve from Glasgow, UK. When we met in another indie team back in 2014, we quickly realized that we shared the same understanding of aesthetics and taste. As we both started our game dev journeys with modding the Source Engine for CS:S, HL2 and Portal, our love for Source games and their style was subconsciously emulated in our first project, the Mystery Shooter INDUSTRIA. More information about the team and Industria can be found on our Twitter and Discord.
