Blood Alloy to stain your Vita's screen

Post 4,700, a nice round number. To go with it, how about some Blood Alloy? This indie arcade shooter from Suppressive Fire was recently Greenlit on Steam but slated for the Vita later in the year. Crafted in a a 2D Metroidvania style, it features a gritty, apocalyptic sci-fi urban setting with non-linear exploration and stamina-based combat mechanics.

There's a PC demo on the game's site and it also proves that failing on Kickstarter (which it did back in 2013) proves that it need not be the end of a project. The game got plenty of support and the time since has been spent refining the game into a more focused title, can't wait to give it a spin!
