Mike Dies is a gay Metroidvania-style adventure game

Mike Dies is described by developer Psydra Games as “a gay Lovecraftian adventure… in space!”

You’ve got us interested.

The “fast-paced, Metroidvania-style adventure with hilarious physics-based deaths, tons of collectibles, and an LGBT store that players discover at their own pace” can be seen below.

Don’t know about you, but I’m fully prepared to help Mike track down his partner, Gregory.

Developer Psydra Games features “a team of game and film industry veterans from Harmonix, Microsoft and Disney,” we’ve been told.

We’re currently downloading Mike Dies, so expect further coverage soon. The game heads to Windows PC via Steam on 23 March.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.
