Valdis Story: Abyssal City (Windows, Mac) (Made by a Black Game Developer)

[Responsible Allen Iverson]

There's a Metroidvania game that has recently been released called Valdis Story: Abyssal City. I haven't played it yet but it is getting good reviews. It's Windows only, and I know that a brother programmed it, so you can support a black business by purchasing this game.

Here's the website: http://www.valdisstory.com/

There's a demo available here: http://www.valdisstory.com/download

The prototype version of this game is free and available here:
http://www.endlessfluff.com/

You can purchase the game DRM-Free directly from the website, which also gives you a Steam key (And the developers get the most money from direct purchases), or from these places:

GOG: http://www.gog.com/game/valdis_story_abyssal_city
Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/252030
Desura: http://www.desura.com/games/valdis-story-abyssal-city (I think you might also get a Steam key if you buy it here)
Gamersgate: http://www.gamersgate.com/DD-VSAC/valdis-story-abyssal-city

You can buy the soundtrack here:

Any word of a Mac version in the works?

I have no idea, but I think the game was made with Game Maker which has a Mac version, so it is probably possible.

I bought the game on steam out of curiosity about a week ago. Its a good action rpg type game and I didn't know a brother made it.

I actually just took a break from it a couple of mins ago to look for a trainer because I suck at one of the bosses lol.

Edit: never mind I got past it. shyt was a pain in the ass. I do have one complaint with the game though. The wall jump mechanics seem a bit broken. Especially since some areas depend on you to use it in order to pass. Also it sucks when you have to get to a really high area just to get hit by some lowly goon and get tossed back to the bottom floor. Other than that, the game seems to be on point.

Does it support pad?

Yes, but apparently it only supports Xinput controllers (such as a 360 controller). DirectInput support was disabled because it was causing problems.

Looks very dope, I hope it makes it to XBLA.
