Risks: (I will be totally honest with you. Thus, I put it here)
1, The game is made with a very old game engine. (For memories' sake)
2, There is only one developer.
3, I am terrible at 2D art.
4, I am not a native speaker of English.
Thus, I provide an honest demo for you. The demo version will update all the way till the game release.
It reflects the current stage of game development in almost real-time.
As the game is one of the first and last RMXP games that’s ever being developed, I’m not exactly aiming to make it something great. (or even sane.)
Instead, it needs to be unique and fun in a way that people can rarely see nowadays, to make people laugh maniacally even in a grimdark world where both the in-game world and the life circle of RMXP are coming to an end.
Story
Welcome to our secret society of [redacted]. We are among the most ancient ones in our line of work.
For a long time, we have witnessed the rise and fall of many others.
The situation is grim, the world almost ended in 2008, 2012, 2015, and 2020.
Some people predict it will keep ending this year, next year, and the year after.
But, well, even if that’s true, even if the ending is inevitable, it is tragic, we are still alive.
So, cheer up! We shall carry on.
As long as we stand, the world shall never fall!
To the end…
Features:
Unbalanced and Unfair
Beneath the facet of the beautiful life people called “normal”, lurks the truth that this secret struggle is never fair.
There are things that can hardly be killed. They may come in great numbers to overwhelm us.
Even when not facing such a supernatural entity, a well-trained Kung-Fu master can still be killed by just a bullet.
But, We Fight on With All We Have!
We have guns and our own magics. We even learned to bind supernatural entities to our wills.
We have tools and artifacts, we have skills ranging from combat to conversation.
If there is a lock that can hardly be picked, try blowing it.
There are always solutions.
You Are Different.
Your arrival was not expected. You were not on any lists. We know little about you.
Show us, who you are and who you will become with all the perks/skills/proficiency you may develop.
We may still stand a chance against all odds with your help.
Lead us…
In This Vast World
Your loyal companions will follow you from ancient ruins to modern metropolis, from east to west.
You will meet common folks we swear to protect, watching them live their “normal” life.
You will discover mysteries, solve them when combat evil forces lurking in the dark.
The Secret History
The story behind this game:
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1519140/view/2986431641632413538
It’s the first Neolithic game with English localization that comes to Steam since 2004 when the first game of Neolithic was published in a dark corner of China.
_Comparing to a commercial game, this is more like a memento to the old golden age of RPG Maker XP (when indie games are really indie; when updates are free instead of being paid DLCs; when developers update games for years, even decades instead of abandon projects as soon as it’s no longer profitable; when games are made with passion instead of money-hunger; And, when RPG Maker was not used to just make those cheap adult-only games.)
This is NEOLITHIC!
There are many games out there, made with modern tools and more than 1 developer. They are supposed to be better than mine.
But, they are not. Why?_

Delivery Guy
It has become dangerous to walk on the street, and once you forget to keep social distance you can get the infection from literally anybody even in case you both are wearing masks. So you will have to follow the rules of social distancing while moving across the streets. The length of the distance depends on the level of protection that your mask provides.
At the beginning you are a fat sluggard who experiences, what is more, problems with money. In the pandemic situation the role of a delivery guy’s job has strongly increased. And as you still don’t have any professional skills, this is an ideal choice for you. Because of suffering from overweight you are able only to walk slowly down the street (not run) but after carrying out a number of deliveries you will lose some weight and make some money. If you want to became fit and to deliver your orders rushing along roofs like a parkourer you will have to keep to a healthy diet and visit a gym. It takes quite a big sum of money and to earn it you should work hard.

Recall
Check out my Steam Curator for short snappy reviews here:
https://store.steampowered.com/curator/40294200-Glitz-and-Gaming-Couple/
Has all the makings of a really bad 80s action movie flick:
Graphics: 5/10 - Although creates a realistic environment it isn’t the prettiest looking game and kind of reminds me of the getaway from the ps2 era if it was set in the eastern bloc. Had a few clipping issues and my character had his arm wrapped around him after one of the fights. For a game to pride on melee needs things like blood/bruising to make it look authentic.

The Elmian Warrior
Edit: Okay well thst’s awkward.. I just loaded the game up and there was no game available in the load game slot :| To the dev, you may wanna make it WAY more clear when/how the game saves. I died and it kicked me back to the start of the room I was in, so I assumed it was ‘saved’ in some way, since there was no “this is a save point” or anything like that and Alt-F4’d, which I guess totally didn’t save anything at all. :( The little heart-thing in town, which spins and boops when you hit it, apparently also isn’t a save point? Kind’ve an annoying thing to have be so unnecessarily unclear.

It’s pretty fun. Bug there are gamekilling bugs, so I can’t recommend it.
Weapons are pretty fun, health/magic’s easy to get, not much of a story but it’s fun to run around and stab things, etc.
I’ve gotten stuck in a wall twice, though. Have to start a new game each time.

Road Rage
I don’t honestly believe this game should get all of the hate that it does. Certainly not a perfect game, it still has its silly fun. The story is a bit out there at times, the voice acting ranges from decent to truly suspect and the odd glitches can be hilarious (hitting a pedestrian can sometimes send you into into the 1200+mph range). That said, I tend to rate games on whether I am having fun or not and this game really didn’t fail to be entertaining at some level. The soundtrack is fun and the game won’t take long to 100% if that is your thing (though the last 2 achievements of hitting a certain number of pedestrians feels like it takes forever since there is no way for you to track it).
– Real player with 11.2 hrs in game
This is one of the biggest pieces of trash I’ve ever played. It’s absolutely hilarious. I have now played this game several times over.
The “story” is awful; in the beginning of the game they tried, but later on they got so lazy that it is almost nonexistent. The voice acting is laughably bad. The game looks terrible, and the insane pop-in when you first start the game sets the tone for the rest of the game. The AI is braindead. I could keep going. Everything is wrong.
The best part, however, is the physics. The physics in this game are absolutely broken. This is what makes the game special and hilarious. You never know when you are going to fly off your bike, fall through the world, clip through buildings, explode, etc., and it never got old for me.

Ben 10: Power Trip
I can’t believe someone thought it was a good decision to have coop only accessible by talking to your npc buddy ‘Kevin’, who’s not all that easy to find on the map. Even worse, if that player hits the wrong button they wind up ejected from the game and you must search for Kevin once again to enable coop mode—even if he’s on the other side of the map! Another terrible aspect is the combat. There is absolutely no weight to your attacks which makes the fight sequences deeply unsatisfying. It’s like swinging at bags of feathers. I just don’t get how the developers could nerf the fighting to the extent that it is simply not fun when it is such an integral part the game. It makes no sense whatsoever. The missions are very repetitive, fetch quests, chases, kill a certain number of enemies or solve an easy puzzle. That is the gameplay in a nutshell. Overall, the open world does provide some decent platforming moments and neat areas to explore but I’d probably hold off for a sale as there are better games out there.

The missions are repetitive and almost the same and the characters feels like bots and doesnt feel alive not to mention how dumb the quizzes are, the world is so dead and doesnt feel fun to go around and explore, also they picked one of the weakest villains in the entire show literally, It would have been better if the main villain was Vilgax or a punch of weak villains not one
ok that was the bad things the good things is the transformation system, you feel like the master of the omnitrix and u can do a mix of every alien attack by simply transforming into each one every 2 seconds to feel the nostalgia

First Impact: Rise of a Hero
It’s a fun EA game. Took me 5 hrs to finish the main storyline with a few side quests in between. Your powers seem underwhelming at first, but once you upgrade them you feel more like a superhero. Overall I enjoyed the experience.
– Real player with 5.0 hrs in game
First Impact features some cool powers and I especially like that each power set has its own form of mobility. The quests were a little hard to find at first but once I got into it I had a lot of fun. Can’t wait to see what the updates bring!

Nuclear War Simulator
Nuclear War Simulator is a detailed realistic simulation and visualization of large-scale nuclear conflicts with a focus on humanitarian consequences. There are currently over 13000 nuclear weapons on this planet of which over 9000 are in military stockpiles. This software should help you answer the question: what will happen if Russia and the United States or India and Pakistan use their arsenals?
You can design warheads, missiles and carries, place them on the map and execute attack plans to tell a credible story about how nuclear conflicts play out and what are the consequences. Using a high-resolution population density map and realistic weapons effects like blast, heat and radiation you can make an estimate of how many people will die in a conflict.
Nuclear conflict scenarios
You can design realistic large-scale scenarios between major powers with thousands of warheads. Scenarios can be created manually where you can assign each warhead individually or with the assistance of an AI for faster targeting. It is also possible to simulate whole conflicts with a few clicks on the map interactively. You can download scenarios created by other people and upload your scenarios to the mods.io server.
Realistic effects of nuclear weapons
The simulation includes a high-resolution population density grid. The effects of blast, heat, fires and radiation are calculated and visualized for each population cell to estimate fatalities (similar to Alex Wellerstein’s NUKEMAP). The destruction of military targets is simulated using a model considering the CEP of the weapon, target hardness and cratering.
You can place yourself, your family and friends into the simulation to estimate the expected injuries and survival probability. The amount of burnt fuel and produced soot are also calculated to estimate the effects of nuclear winter using a simplified model.
Design and placement of objects
Using an intuitive UI you can design warheads, place them on missiles and into silos, on aircraft, TELs and submarines.
You can then place the forces onto the map simply clicking on it or importing real-world locations from KMZ files.
If you know how much uranium and plutonium is needed for one warhead, you can estimate how many can be build from today’s stockpiles if a country wants to.
Modding and interfaces
The simulation supports some basic modding of unit textures, loading screens and background music. It is also possible to share unit blueprints and scenarios with others.
If you have simulated a conflict in another tool you can import the list of detonations as a simple CSV file to calculate the humanitarian effects. On the other hand, you can also export the list of detonations together with the burnt soot into other tools like detailed climate simulations.
