Well, time to break out the Dr. Doofenshmirtz “two nickels” meme again, because once again the stars have aligned and we have two indie games in close proximity with oddly similar setups. In this case, it’s the premise of an adorable, recently deceased black cat that finds themselves having to navigate the afterlife. We previously saw that just a week ago with Umbraclaw, and now we’re set see it again soon with Crypt Custodian, from developer Kyle Thompson (best known for Islets and Sheepo) and publishers Top Hat Studios. But where Umbraclaw’s protagonist gets to become a badass warrior, here, our protagonist Pluto is tasked with being the afterlife’s janitor for all of eternity. But this punishment leads to what appears to be one impressive adventure, as seen in the trailer at this link, which also reveals that the game is coming out sooner than you might imagine.
