Check out some new footage from the Furi studio's much mellower followup.

VIDEO: The PC Gaming Show indie montage, featuring Haven. Trailer also on YouTube.

If The PC Gaming Show to see what this mellow visual novel and open world RPG hybrid is all about.

Haven is a big change of pace for developer The Game Bakers, the studio that put out the bullet hell samurai action game Furi (which I liked a lot). But even if the fast-paced action and punishing difficulty is gone, relationships are their own challenge. Besides, some of the signature stuff is still there, including some saturated psychedelic coloring, gorgeous expanses, and a sick electronic soundtrack. 

Haven is due for release sometime in 2020.
