    I confess I'm totally fanboying over this since it was first shown around.

    Gunpoint is a retrò flavoured, 2D stealth game, centered around puzzle-platforming mechanics. In the game we control an industrial spy tasked to hack into one or more computers in every level.

    For those who never heard of it before, it was made in Game Maker by a PC Gamer editor.

    The selling poing of the game is the switch between two view modes, the second allows the spy to examine and rewire a building's electric system to gain access to the different rooms.

    Website: Gunpoint The Game

    Release date: 3 June 2013

    Demo: available here

    Download: DRM-free on the official website e Steam

    It's a Windows game; buying it on the author's site still gives you a redeem key for Steam. Just 9$ to preorder the basic version.

    I'm trying the demo tonight but i'm pretty sure i'll buy it.

    Used to work with John, the artist, good guy. He has been working on the art for a long time.

    I must say I did like even the first media, with basic art, but the final style they settled on is really pleasing.

    Just tried it, fun as expected.

    Writing is brilliant indeed, I'd say this game has the best conversion-to-purchase process ever

    Tried the demo and loved it. Replayed it and did a few of the levels in different ways, which is awesome.

    Bought it.

    The guy who made it has just linked to this on twitter. It's all his blog posts in chronological order. Quite interesting!
