Summary

Danny Peña and Parris Lilly return to Gamer Tag Radio to break down two unique indie titles that stood out during their playtime at Gamescom: ONTOS – From the developers behind SOMA , this sci-fi psychological horror mystery puts players in high-stakes environments filled with puzzles, branching paths, and tricky scenarios. Danny shares his hands-on experience solving the demo's puzzles, discovering new story paths, and pressing the devs on the game's mysterious art. Hello Sunshine – Parris gives a detailed breakdown of this survival-scavenging concept from Red Thread Games. Described as The Iron Giant meets Wall-E where the sun is trying to kill you, players must stay in the shade of a massive guardian robot, scavenge resources in extreme temperatures, manage heat and freeze risks, and navigate interactions with strangers in a desolate world.
