TIF Plays: Indivisible!

Gameplay

Indivisible is a game currently in development and seeking funding over on IndieGoGo. Lab Zero is combing 2D platformer elements with JRPG gameplay. I wanted to see what the game was all about, especially after I discovered that they released a prototype version for the Mac! Check out an archive of my stream linked below, and be sure to catch me when I go live by following me on Twitter (@alexsamocha) and Twitch (MegalodonPhD) Enjoy!
