PAX 2016: A Look at the Folktale Adventure 'Burly Men at Sea'
Hidden away in the incredibly packed Indie Mega Booth this year at PAX was the "folktale adventure" Burly Men at Sea. Like most adventure games, it's hard to demo and being on the PAX floor you can't hear the music, but I'm really digging the small taste I was able to get. What sets Burly Men at Sea apart from other adventure games, is through a control method where you're in charge of the camera instead of character movement, it feels like you take on the role of the storyteller instead of the actual characters inside of the game.

It's a neat idea, and I totally love the art style they're going with here. Burly Men at Sea is coming soon, and I can't wait to sit down and fully experience it, as just the tiny bit they're showing off at PAX seems like it has loads of potential.
[Editor's Note: We walked through the whole PAX show floor and shot a ton of video yesterday, if you've got a mobile game (or a game that's going to be ported to mobile eventually) and we haven't shot video of your stuff yet. Please reach out by DM'ing @hodapp on Twitter to tell us where you're at. Connectivity is a nightmare at PAX, but, we'll be there. Also, if you're not at the show but curious where all the PAX coverage is, those same connectivity issues are making getting videos online really difficult.]
