Galactic Civilizations III

Galactic Civilizations III

NOTE: This is a review of the Final Release Candidate for the game, so it should apply to the released version.

Having been a long-time GC2 player, I eagerly signed up for the Founder’s Edition early-access over a year ago, and have followed the development of GC3 since then closely.

Let me tell you, getting a 4X game that incorporates all the features that hard-core strategy gamers want, while remaining both relevant and competitive, is really hard. As in, EXTREMELY hard. StarDock has done an excellent job with GC3. That’s not to say there still aren’t quibbles over the direction certain features have taken, but the reality is, that if you actually want to release a game, certain decisions are going to have to be taken, and you’re sure to piss off someone who wanted that feature and didn’t get it. But GC3 is a solid and entertaining game, if not a radically innovative one.

First of all it is critical to understand that the game is still in beta testing and therefore has some glitches. That said it has been pretty stable for me. (Four year old dell xps 8100 with 16gb and a 750 Ti video card). At present the plan seems to be to a go for a final release in May. There will be frequent patches before then and perhaps a beta 6 release (beta 5, with enormous additions, was released yesterday (Mar26). If you don’t like encountering bugs and reporting them to help the game, then wait for the release. Of critical importance remaining is tuning the AI to be smarter and more aggressive, imo.

On The Earth Shift :)

On The Earth Shift :)

“On the Earth Shift :)" is a VR resource management game / romantic experience about doing your silly alien job while your silly alien fish friend watches.

Your silly alien job is, as the title would imply, taking care of the Earth! It is your job to ensure that all aspects of Earth life flourish in perfect harmony, including global temperature, the horniess of the population, and the desire to dominate / submit to one another.

However, alien management from Glorf-31 have their own ideas on how Earth should be managed, such as Snarglarff Sneet, obsessed with extracting value from Earth, Elgore Smankoff, who wishes to perform sick experiments on the planet, and Mire Oodle, who just wants a friend, along with many others. It is your job to accept or deny their requests, as the world’s fate hangs in the balance,

Car Puzzle: Round Ways

Car Puzzle: Round Ways

It makes an error when a car collides with a pizza delivery coming out of a delivery point. While pizza deliveries move backward when they leave the points, the developers have not programmed how to deal it when a car collides with the back of another one. It makes the game get totally stuck, so I have to turn off and restart the game.

Round Ways is a mobile port of a free game that has nothing new to offer in the paid version. The features listed on the Play Store and Steam are exactly the same word for word. It’s a bad port too with relics of the mobile version still intact with a clunky mouse only interface for finger sliding/tapping. It is more of a quick reaction time game than it is puzzle that just doesn’t work well on the PC. The core design has the player switching cars between tracks by tapping the switches, which is much easier to do on a touch screen phone where the player can have their fingers lined up with multiple switches at once vs on the PC where the player can only click one switch at a time and requires dragging the mouse to the next switch. Each level is fairly simplistic, but the time limit and switch limits for getting 3 star ratings become too cumbersome on the PC version. As early as level 13 it’s like the dev just gave up on the level design and flat out admits the level does not have a solution and instructs the player to use an auto-abduction power-up that passes the level. After this point the entire game can just be auto-completed and it’s hard to tell which levels actually have a solution anymore. Just play the free version on a touch screen phone.

Farmers Co-op: Out of This World

Farmers Co-op: Out of This World

The soils have become infertile for your home world, and you have found new hope on these distant planets with the help of the generous inhabitants living on them. At last, fresh food can be grown/produced again on these beautiful but alien lands.

In Farmers Co-op: Out of This World, your job is to work together as a farming team to produce as much crop/food as possible within the time limit and beam them back home. In a particular order from tillilng, sowing, watering, harvesting to shipping, its co-op farming fun at its best! It won’t be that easy though, environmental hazards, human errors, crop pests and more will be in your way to test the chemistry and collaboration between you and three others.

O.V.N.I. Abduction

O.V.N.I. Abduction

I originally down-voted due to the inability to invert the Y axis. A developer has informed that this has been fixed so I will change to a positive for now and revisit once I’ve had time to play with the new settings. I also see that they’ve added options to edit the graphics, sound, resolution, etc so that’s goo!

The way this game goes from P.T. to Earth Defense Force is funny.

Slow start, but great atmosphere. Ending was pretty meh tho.

Super short alien game at a decent price. Check it out.

On Your Hands

On Your Hands

On Your Hands is a game that fuses challenging first person puzzles with spine-chilling horror. Inspired by Portal, Quake, and Half-Life, in On Your Hands you think fast - or die faster.

THE STORY SO FAR

Deep in the metal halls of the Wonder Facility, Aliens are coming through to Earth in a slipgate that can only be closed from one side - the side it opened on. Your mission is to journey through Ooblterra, the alien planet, and close the portal. Grabbing your flashlight, you steel your resolve and jump into a wormhole of your own; and are flung in front of a strange Cathedral. Your journey begins here.

Master of Magic

On Your Hands contains seven unique magical abilities, each of which aid in solving puzzles or fighting enemies. Some magical abilities are upgradable, unlocking new powers.

Creature Feature

Deadly monsters such as the Lurker, Grinder, or Concealer seek to stop your journey - cower in fear, or use them to your advantage.

Unravel The Mystery

There is a single sign of human life in Ooblterra - strange tape recorders, which make reference to a man named Prot. Careful secret hunting is the key to finding the truth of the story they tell.

Alien Architect

On Your Hands will receive a free update post-launch to include a level editor, to allow player to express their creativity using the game’s mechanics. Or just remake E1M1. We won’t judge.

Unknown Planet

Unknown Planet

Two thumbs up from me. Perhaps the game doesn’t exactly reinvent the wheel, but it has it’s own verve, it’s own charm. I wanted to wait until I had more time under my belt before giving a review, but I’m so pleased by this that I couldn’t wait. I stumbled on this while searching for open world survival craft games. I already have things like Ark for my Xbox One, I was looking for something….. I’m not sure what I was looking for…. something a little different. And “something a little different” is exactly what this is, and I’m totally stoked. Perhaps this might not be for everyone, but I’m digging it :)
