It’s not unheard of that some corporations go to war with each other in this dog-eat-dog gaming world, but Epic Games has been offering developers better terms for their games, offering developers 88% in revenue, instead of the 60% like Steam, according to Gameinformer and Polygon. The controversial issue behind Epic Games is that it has been offering exclusive deals to developers to not put their content in the Steam Store and only their own, providing better margins for the developers to make more money. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Epic Games, it released high-grossing games, such as Fortnite, which drove revenue over $2.5B in 2018 with over 250M active players, growing Epic Games closer in size to Steam’s creator, Valve. In the first week of August, Epic Games Inc offered Wlad Marhulets, the sole developer behind Unfold Games, for Darq to be exclusively distributed in the Epic store and not on Steam, according to PCGamer. Was Darq worth the three-year wait and did it live up to the trailer? Let’s find out.īefore I get into the details of Darq gameplay, I wanted to provide some interesting insight into the game’s distribution drama. Darq appears to profoundly borrow concepts from other games, such as, ‘Little Nightmares’ and ‘Limbo.’ If you enjoyed those games, just as much as I did, then Darq is right up your alley! You can watch and compare both the original trailer here and the most recent released trailer here.
It has been three years since the initial release of that trailer, and quite a bit has changed, but the game ultimately surpassed my expectations. In the fall of 2016, ‘ Unfold Games’ released a teaser trailer for a puzzle-platform based psychological horror that blew me away.
