/

Matt Kap, who previously released Castle in the Darkness has opened a new studio - LABS - and announced their first game Astalon: Tears of Earth which will be releasing later this year.

According to the blog post we'll have to wait a bit longer for details, but we do have this blurb about the game - "Three explorers wander through a post-apocalyptic desert to find a way to save the people in their village. A dark, twisted tower has been pushed up from the depths of the Earth... but does it hold the answers they seek?"
