The Alters – I Can’t Believe How Good This Is! Best Game of 2024?

by admin



The Alters may well be one of the best, if not the best game of 2024, at least based upon the demo. It’s set on an alien world, and presents a unique game that is structured in a very compelling way.

The Alters demo (available until 17 June): https://store.steampowered.com/app/1601570/The_Alters/

Hello Obsidian Ant! I'm a Lead designer of "The Alters" (and "This War of Mine"). I'm also a fan of your channel. I play space games a lot and I like to watch your reviews. I'm very happy that you liked our demo and I hope (and trust) that the full version will be as good as the premise.😊

Not my style but I applause quality games.

@TheRealAfroRick June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Definitely an inspired concept for a game. Love where they are going with it – and love the mechanics that it introduces. Kudos to the devs for raising the bar.

@Nathdood June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Wow this game has obviously had zero marketing, have never even heard of this.
Thank you for introducting most of us, this looks great

This guy can do a documentary on poop and id watch it! His voice is so smooth! lol

@Peter_739 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

I'm gonna play the heck out of this.

Wow. This is more intriguing than I thought

@michaelschneider1365 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

hopefully this is long and good reply value

@michaelschneider1365 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

how long do you think this game is and replay value

@Xariann June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

This looks impressive.

@chrisshay1864 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Gary…

@mikolajfrycz June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

God I want to play this game so badly

@TripleXGames June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

If I had clones with my memories there would be…. Debauchery!

@vast634 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

They all look like Henry from KCD.

@chlorophyllix June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

looks great but feels clunky to play.

@J.Poldervaart June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Never any spacegames on consoles 👎🏼

@joca1378 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

This War Of Mine is the proof that you don't need an over complicated game and a billion dollars to make an awesome game. You just need the game to have a compelling story, that can mess up with our emotions. This one's looking awesome and I can't wait to play it.

@dylanbullock375 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Alien planet my ass that’s giants causeway

@souldry June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

I really love the premise and the concept. Hope the rest of the game is as good and interesting

@christopherarocha92 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

I hope demo is available I want to check out today

@michaelmacdonell4834 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

This has echoes of so very many darned amazing bits of sci-fi – from Iain M Banks to Ursula LeGuin to wow…..!

Mind flipping blown.

@user-dh6kg3kg7f June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Excelent. I finished the demo and can't wait to continue the story. Very interesting concept.

@CarlWheatley-wi2cl June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

I did not know that this game even existed. Thanks Ant. Definitely one I'm going to engage with and keep an eye on.

@andyg00d June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Great demo! Unfortunate that the QC deletes the other crew members before you can reconstitute them… 😆

@jaymac7203 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

This is a dream game for me. I love grindy sci-fi exploration games 🤓 lol

@metalfiregametime652 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

I just hope it's not going to be yet another $59 game with dismal mixed reviews.

@hamishdundee385 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

VR support?

@NordicMeatShield June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Will be available day 1on Gamepass, can't wait 😎

@cesar4729 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Cool game, nonsensical worldbuilding.

@nickholk3379 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Wow looks amazing

@rosshousechild3193 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Is there an actual release date yet. Does anyone know?

@louissivo9660 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Okay, this is a new game to me, never heard of it before this video of yours. I've wish listed it on Steam so I can follow it and know when it leaves early access. Thanks for the heads up.

@jameslindsay5889 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

No thanks.

@robd951 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Downloading to my Steam Deck, hope it works somewhat.

Edit- All I have access to is my Steam Deck and it crashes my entire Deck after the intro before loading the demo.

@RHQ7 June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Just played it and what a concept. Loved the demo.

@Wayleran June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

Looks very intriguing. Yet again another example of an indie studio pushing boundaries and innovation while AAA's falter.

@SagittarA June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

OMG ive had alters on wishlist since last years game awards when it was teased. I JUMPED when i saw you post this enraged on steam that didnt notice me it came out…. but it didnt and i sat back to watch this…. im SO hyped for this game.
i try to stay away from the demo because im already set on buying it anyway, so i dont want to spoil myself and then get dissapointed when i reach the end of the demo.
And since This war of mine is one of my most favourite indie games, i know the devs care about their product.

@SuburbanDMV June 30, 2024 - 11:34 pm

I was watching some streamers play this and was really impressed. This looks like the sleeper hit of the scif fi genre for 2024. o7
