The Third Serious Sam Indie Game is an RPG?!

Serious Sam: The Random Encounter is being developed by Vlambeer of Super Crate Box fame. The game follows Sam as he ‘battles legions of bizarre creatures alongside his oddball cast of mercenary friends.’

As can be gathered from the title, this is a turned based RPG version of Serious Sam; which is intentionally opposite from the series’ roots as an FPS.

The press release sums up the game’s features nicely:

Turn-Based Awesome – Battle across three worlds of pandemonium with Serious Sam and his band of quirky commandos as they clash with legions of relentless creatures hell-bent on ruining your day. Choose your weapons and prepare for an absolute onslaught of merciless enemies charging from every direction.

Extraordinary Visual Design – Behold the pixilated brutality of Serious Sam’s struggle against evil in glorious retro-styled graphics. Visit the exotic locals of Egypt and dangerous caverns overrun by Mental’s twisted horde. Battle by land or take on all-new aquatic variations of classic Serious Sam baddies in underwater skirmishes unlike anything Sam has faced before!

Serious Strategy – No magic here, son. Select from a variety of dynamic items to increase your party’s stats, toss out some Headless Kamikaze bait, or bring everything to a devastating halt with the all-powerful Serious Bomb.

Endless Challenge Mode – Take on a never-ending wave of Mental’s most fearsome minions and attempt to post the best score to win the admiration of your friends and family.

Serious Sam: The Random Encounter comes out mid-October on Steam for $4.99.
