Katuba’s Poacher (ETA 2027 - PC)
Created by Joe Yu, a solo developer based in South Korea, Katuba's Poacher is an inventive and cleverly designed character action boss-rush experience that showcases a strong sense of creativity and originality. Despite coming from a single-person development studio, the game delivers a surprisingly ambitious vision, combining stylish presentation with unique gameplay ideas that feel both fresh and highly playable.
One of the most striking aspects of Katuba's Poacher is the way it builds its identity around music. Its visual style, atmosphere, and mechanics are all shaped by a strong musical theme, creating a distinctive experience that feels carefully crafted rather than simply decorated with a soundtrack. The result is a game with a clear personality and structure. Its simple action has layers of challenges that are fast-paced and precise. Side-scrolling, but never restricted, you will be bombarded with projectiles and endless enemies, all with their own attacking patterns, and succeeding is never easy, but there are enough ways and ploys to achieve success. With incredibly sparkling on-screen effects, this hand-drawn cartoon style is a vibrant 2d animated experience that is superbly choreographed, with its swinging, foot-tapping, jazzy music. A game that's more than its parts!

Released just over a week ago on PC and PS5, attendees will be able to meet members of the development team and play the game being displayed prominently!
A game that has come a long way since its early conception and original design. Port of Jumanah can best be described as a cute action-roguelite game! Explore diverse oceans filled with unique environments, creatures, and secrets. Search for lost treasures, battle the dangers lurking beneath the waves, and uncover the mysteries of the deep. Procedurally generated underwater chambers, with power-ups, layouts, and enemy placements shifting between dives, require quick thinking and adaptability. So prepare to meet unexpected allies and enemies, share deep and meaningful conversations, or none at all!
Will you constantly ask yourself, is setting sail on a long voyage alone a good idea? Every adventure is better with a crew, especially one made up of friends, each bringing their own unique talents to help you along the way. There’s even a cat aboard!
The look of the game offers a distinctive identity and draws inspiration from Middle Eastern folklore and coastal traditions; its underwater world is vibrant and atmospheric, filled with coral-lined caverns, glowing marine life, and expressive character designs. Beautiful animations add to this sense of fluidity. The clever buoyant underwater setting gives combat a nice, authentic feel from more traditional action-roguelite experiences.
