VANCOUVER, BC, — Adult Game Fest organizers have announced that four new development teams will exhibit at its inaugural convention and trade show, taking place Sept. 24-26.
The new teams include Fallen Genesis, PalpatineStudio, Adventurous Goat, and Paper Tiger Games.
Fallen Genesis will showcase “Project Egris,” its 18+ choice-based fantasy novel set in a dystopian cyberpunk world, in which players choose from four playable genders while navigating a story involving crime, royalty, identity, and fate.
“Being a part of the first Adult Game Fest is a huge honor and a huge milestone I couldn't have predicted,” said a Fallen Genesis rep. “I'm excited to introduce more players to the world and characters of ‘Project Egris,’ talk amongst my peers, get to know the adult gaming community more deeply, and share where the story is heading next.”
According to a rep, PalpatineStudio brings a catalog of more than six adult games, including “Mad Gambler Country,” “Gardener Hero,” and “20 Bucks Is 20 Bucks: A Never-Ending Story.”
Adventurous Goat will exhibit “Ardor for Depravity,” which combines a story-driven visual novel with sandbox elements, following the character Emily as she explores her identity and undergoes psychological transformation.
Finally, Paper Tiger Games will showcase “Rivers of Astrum: Daughter of Darkness,” a story-driven dark fantasy game with a lesbian focus and dozens of customizable content filters.
“The sexual elements add layers to the story without becoming the story,” said a Paper Tiger Games rep. “My hope is to encounter potential new fans of story-first adult content, particularly in the lesbian sphere.”
Adult Game Fest Executive VP Anna Lee enthused about the new additions to the festival.
“What's exciting about this lineup is that there isn't a single definition of what an adult game is,” she said. “These developers are approaching the medium from completely different creative directions. That's exactly the kind of diversity we want Adult Game Fest to showcase.”
