Indie Game Back in 1995 Coming to Steam

Japanese indie game studio Throw the warped code out (yes, that is their real name) has announced its collaboration with Degica to release Back in 1995 on Steam.

Back in 1995 is a Japanese indie game, reviving the 3D gameplay of early polygon games, along with all their trappings: low-res graphics, low poly models, texture warping, and challenging gameplay.

A mystery game with horror elements, Back in 1995 faithfully emulates games of the mid-90’s, which, in the view of the developers, relied more on player imagination than present-day games. Since revealing its retro 3D graphics in April,Back in 1995 has garnered a lot of attention both in Japan and overseas.

Throw the warped code out has partnered with Degica because of their previous successes bringing Japanese titles to the overseas market, as well as their dedication to indie game studios. Throw the warped code out has high hopes that Back in 1995 will help popularize the aesthetic and game feel of early polygon games, and inspire other indie game devs to create what they’re passionate about; especially in Japan.
