Indie publisher Midwest Games and solo dev Max Mraz (of Ocean’s Heart fame) have just lifted the veil on the sprawling in-game map for Tombwater, the upcoming 2D souls-like action RPG arriving on PC later this year. And if you thought this top-down adventure was going to be bite-sized — think again. Revealed alongside the playable demo, the Tombwater world map showcases nearly 20 distinct biomes layered across a haunted Wild West world gone very, very wrong. Think A Link to the Past, but grimmer, weirder, and riddled with madness. “We were having so much fun exploring what could be…
