Black Sun

Black Sun

In this game, you fly a space ship through an open world. Your sidekick is an AI assistant who understands your text-written commands and helps you to steer the ship, survive heavy space combat or to find the next gas station.

"Space is a terrible place. The kidnapping of my brother and the Captain’s death didn’t make it easier. Thank god, there is Hopper."

You play Eli, a young man stranded on the antique star freighter Lucky Beggar. You don’t like space yet here you are.

Features

  • Text freely in natural language with your AI assistant Hopper: let her fly the ship, get her help during combat or ask for a market analysis to maximise your trading profit. She knows a lot - including terrible space jokes.

  • A large 2D open-world universe containing numerous solar systems, space stations and ships to discover. Large means astronomical and impossible-to-fly-through. Be grateful if the jump engine works properly.

  • Find your kidnapped brother while making interstellar friends and enemies. An over 5-hours long cinematic storyline is waiting for you!

  • Enjoy epic space battles with hundreds of ships.

  • You decide how you pay the bills for fuel and supplies: be a smart trader, solve rewarding quests or take missions from shady people in the space pub.

  • Your ship is a temple. Repair it, get upgrades and don’t fly it into asteroid fields. Those dents stay.

  • Put on the headphones, fasten your seat belt and relax: one hour of orchestral soundtrack - originally composed just for this game!

  • Modding encouraged! Most of the game’s content is freely changeable by using a beginner-friendly script language and images. Add your own quests, ships or places. Teach new commands to the AI assistant.

After putting more time than any man should put into this game i have not only completed the main quest line of talking to all the people but i have also found all 50 of the yellow orbs. I feel like i have transcended beyond human kind, I no longer require oxygen to breath, my heart pumps 4 times harder, my life span is now a century, i can move things with my mind and kill people with a single thought from across the world.

Farm Life: Natures Adventure

Farm Life: Natures Adventure

https://youtu.be/QM1K4mrq2zE

Poorly optimised android port and/or an unfinished port. But as not in early access approach this as a full game.

Way too buggy, including game ending faults at the moment. Not sure the game will contain enough levels to even compete within the genre with the gameplay coming across as cookie cutter. The engine feels clunky and delayed.

The fun of the game is not coming from challenge or story for me.

The tutorial shouldn’t even exist as it explains the easier sections of the game, then does not even touch on the more complex areas and the help files aren’t helpful.

Veeeeery clunky controls and game breaking bugs. The first time the game hicked up completely, couldn’t even get past entering all the data for creating the farm. On the second save I bought a milktool by accident and every NPC now says “Thanks for buying that.”, rendering me unable to purchase anything. I also have one strawberry seed I can plant endlessly. Developer, try harder please.

Heavenworld

Heavenworld

Let’s be straight about this:

Didn’t Liked:

-After you Build something, you can’t erase it from that place

-Enemy factions respawn their members, no matter if you took most of them. they always grow, when other factions (neutral or allied ones) don’t. They can loose members but won’t raise it’s numbers.

-The game has a option of up to 150 people (including the player) to appear in the map, but i never saw more than 60 and they go down quickly)

-Map editor isn’t full (you don’t have all the things you see on the map, i don’t know why but you can really build what you saw on the Official Map for example.. isn’t Full really, only.. 50%.. of it you can use it)

This game as a very unique concept, it combines both base building with direct character control offering a more immersive feel rather than being that entity in the sky that just places buildings and manage resources like more RTS. It’s comparable to State of Decay’s base mgmt system but with a lil more room for placement. The ability to customize your gameplay is huge as some aspects to the game isnt favored by players so you can create the game to your liking.

Pros:

  • Fun and dynamic base building offering creative ways to design your base to your liking

Incarnata: Dormant Stories

Incarnata: Dormant Stories

Incarnata is a text-based game where everything is procedurally generated: offering an incredible depth, within an infinite world.

Dive into this adventure simulation and become everything you decide to be. The game adapts and builds challenges, creates unique characters, places, and goals for you to weave your own story.

Gameplay depth

Will you aim for your enemy’s throat or maybe their left eye? Will the memory of this fight stop your character from sleeping tonight? Are you wearing enough layers of clothes to protect you from the cold? Create your own story by playing with an unprecedented level of depth.

Procedural everything

Everything in Incarnata is generated by a complex algorithm. The world, the items you find, but also the story you are going to live through. Love, Betrayal, Twists, and Challenges are all handled by an algorithm meant to always keep you on your toes.

Extremely moddable

About everything in the game can be changed. Play as a human in a medieval fantasy world, a cyber human in a dystopian future, a wild animal with godly powers. Anything you can think of, the game can be made to play.

As a modder, you are able to change the world the players will explore but also the very actions that are at their disposal. Incarnata works as the platform where your dream world will come to life.

Your custom-made content is incorporated within the procedural generation algorithm, allowing creators to be players in their own world.

What will probably never come:

I have reviewed this game as a positive overall because I like what I have played so far.

It is a bit buggy however, currently I have a black screen that will not resolve when I try to continue my game. Luckily, I have manually kept a save so I won’t lose my entire playthrough, but it is frustrating. Occasionally when I open the game, the map is pinned open and won’t minimise. My character has been stuck on a couple of staircases. I also feel like maps have had labels on since maps were a thing, so labelling even just the districts surely cannot destroy the immersion?

Real player with 18.3 hrs in game

This Game is criminally underrated!

It’s a beautiful blend of Strategy, Adventure, and even minor dungeon crawling!

Lets start with the Positives about the game.

Music? Atmospheric, unique to each district and definitely carries the tone of each faction and their respective beliefs.

Music is fantastic.

Graphics? At first one might not be used to the more obtuse (unusual compared to other games) graphics and renditions, but once you look past that, it really sells itself well. Additionally, if you’re familiar with Teslagrad and World to the West, The character design is a return to form and stays true to the world-building that Rain Games has done.

All Aspect Warfare

All Aspect Warfare

If you want an idea of how infantry conflict (without indirect fire) would be in the future, play this game.

The scenario is that you are one of a surviving team of soldiers/airman (there’s one pilot among you) on a planet that is essentially a live-fire training area for an enemy race’s military.

Yep, an entire planet that’s really one big impact area with a few bases scattered on it.

How did you get there? Well, the spaceship that you were on was carrying a planet buster to plant on the enemy home world (yeah, the war’s going that badly) was damaged en-route and crashed here. After arming the planet buster, of course.

This was actually a fascinating concept back in 2009 and I even had some fun playing it. Unfortunately the bugs were never fixed and it is left a broken mess. The fact that the developer appears to have been actively working to remove bad reviews from the store page makes it quite obvious that the game is never going to get the love it requires and as such my only recommendation can be to spend your money elsewhere.

AI Drone Simulator

AI Drone Simulator

It has what it promised. I brought this to practice for real fpv. It does feel natural once you calibrate to your own quad (and this is a BIG thing). It has a very detailed and precise adjustements for the quad dimensions, weight… The presets are fun to discover possible new real drones to buy. The moving objects are quite fun to practice chasing around.

The only thing I might say it needs a bit more work is the map editor. But is okay once you get used to it and the good thing is that has the option to edit rather than not have it.

first of lets start with the physics they are fantastic to me one of the best feeling sims out there the developers are great at letting their community know whats going on they have a lot of great plans ahead for future updates and a brand new dlc map coming out soon it has a mixture of both freestyle and racing wich both feel great the racing aspect needs work and has been confirmed they are working on that aspect to appeal to racers this sim is next level maps are huge physics are spot on and it can only get better im hyped for the future of this amazing sim

Angle of Attack

Angle of Attack

Battlecruiser 3000 is a game in which you control a gigantic battleship managing every aspect of it, building and upgrading its capabilities as you travel across the galaxy fighting in a war of truly epic proportions.

Angle Of Attack is a poor and simplistic version of that.

Instead of an entire galaxy to play around in, you have a single planet. Instead of a complex and intricate upgrade and management system, you just increase numbers and none of the upgrades really change how the game plays and instead of taking part in an organic conflict you just kind of cruise around, rarely if ever seeing a friendly.

Real player with 31.3 hrs in game

Angle of Attack is yet another variation of Derek Smart’s Battlecruiser 3000 “franchise”. It started as a comprehensive simulation of a starship command, down to crew and food, and weapons, and trading and planets and fleet that starships moving all around you, doing their own things, and you can help your own side in the war effort. In Angle of Attack, you are down to one planet, with jump gates that takes you to other parts of the planet, and you can attack or defend as you wish against the humankind’s nemesis, the Gamulons.
