That may sound a lot like Calvino Noir, a game I talked about earlier in the week, but the differences are pretty stark. Putting its location aside, The Marvellous Miss Take is a point-and-click heist title that focuses on stealth mechanics. This was a fully fleshed out game with bits of story and some wonderful art in place it was really more suited for the Rezzed area of the show.

Often titles in this area feel more like an experiment than a full game, a trend that left The Marvellous Miss Take feeling slightly out of place. The Left Field collection at EGX is usually full of fairly unusual games, those far more offbeat than what you find in the Rezzed area. This is absolutely worth keeping an eye on if you love space or stealth. Sure, more complex missions structures and the like are needed if you want a really rich experience, but what’s there now is a lot of fun. It’s pretty obvious that Heat Signature still has a way to go before release, but the core of the game is already there and plays fantastically well. However, after a little practice you’ll be plucking yourself out of space with plenty of time left before the life force leaves your body. This is actually much tougher than docking with a ship, as you tend to be going at top speed and the target is much, much smaller than an airlock. Instead you can try and chase your body down with your ship before your life does finally expire. This doesn’t mean an instant death though. You can either dodge or kill them, but be forewarned, if you’re caught you’ll be promptly thrown out of the airlock. Of course, there are ship board guards in your way, so you’ll need to be careful in your approach. Once on board, your goal, in the current build at least, is either to steal information from the ship’s computer core or to kill a specific inhabitant of the ship. It’s a tricky mechanic at first, but once you get to grips with it it’s really satisfying.ĭocking changes your perspective from the exterior of your ship to the interior of your target, although both views are presented from a 2D, top down view point.

Fortunately, enemy ships have their heat detection radius clearly shown, so the trick to boarding is to try and match speed with your target before slowly nudging your way towards the airlock.
