If you’re anything like me you’ll have already prepared by making knuckle dusters out of empty spaghetti hoop tins been getting loads of emails about wellness and mindfullness. I’ve been getting them from my hairdresser. I’ve been getting them from cheese companies that I signed up to once like a year ago because I wanted a massive box of cheddar. Pretty sure I even got one from my bank, which is weird....
“Whilst we understand this news might be disappointing, we are excited for you all to face the challenges of Mars, traverse its hostile environments, and discover the mystery of the ARKs,” KeokeN said. “Your patience will allow us to deliver the best experience we can.” Deliver Us Mars follows the story of Kathy Johanson, who – spoilers – was a little girl in previous game Deliver Us The Moon. Kathy is a bit taller now, so she’s off to Mars to tackle thieves who’ve stolen equipment needed to keep Earth from heading right into full-on climate collapse....
Ooh The Milk Lake (coming to Steam) does actually look like this: I’m always keen to see what Oleomingus are up to: Is Spectra truly an immersim sim if you can’t smoke cigarettes to take 1 damage for no benefit? Oh these skateboarding moves in Thirsty Suitors (coming to Steam) are unrealistic? Then how come I can see the dev is- oh. Ah. Well, they’re cool! Another behind-the-scenes peek, this time at the lovely squishy grid of narrative puzzle game How To Say Goodbye (coming to Steam): And let’s not forget one of the most important stages of game development, the graffiti pass: I do like a good mundane space, and I especially like a camera: And I adore a jumpkick, like this from Selaco (coming to Steam): I think I have to post this bee game, for Sin: No idea what this is; very into it: What else caught your eye this weekend, reader dear?...
We’re diving in this week with the adorable Loddlenaut. What’s a Loddle? Nae clue, but I know I’m “naut” ignoring these delightful sea slugs. To see this content please enable targeting cookies. Manage cookie settings — loddlenaut (@loddlenaut) February 29, 2020 Loddlenaut is very cute, team. Currently in development by Ricardo Escobar and Jin Young Sohn, it’s a self-described “cosy aquatic pet sim” about cleaning up the ocean and taking care of these vibrant worm-like Loddles....
The Vaults Of The Ancients update is mostly focused on these new voyage types. The multi-part missions seem like they may be pretty involved. After reaching rank 25 with the Gold Hoarders, you can accept a Treasure Vault Voyage from any Hoarder rep. They’ll hand over a special compass which will lead you to a series of map fragments which will in turn lead you to a special vault key....
Loading into Sea Of Thieves between now and December 9th (huh, a surprisingly long Halloween event, that), you’ll find the many islands of Sea Of Thieves have been dressed for the occasion, with pumpkins and decorations to celebrate the spooks. To try out the event’s new voyages, you’ll need to head to Larinna who can be found chilling outside the game’s many taverns. She’ll task you with hunting down lost crews by chatting with the game’s various NPCs, who’ll teach you all about freaky rituals used by the game’s pesky skellys....
Shotgun King sees the black king abandoned by his court and even his queen, because he was a jerk. He decides to leans into this, and sets out delivering the deadliest checkmate across 12 levels. The white side field most of a traditional chess army (though this will grow and change), while you have only your king and his royal shotgun. Every chess piece has its traditional moves (helpfully, you can mouseover units for a reminder), though white will move multiple pieces each turn....
Like it’s predecessor, SnowRunner is a game about driving massive lorries through awful conditions. But when it arrives next week, Saber want to make sure you can drive whatever you like across the miserable Taymyr Peninsula. Publisher Focus Home Interactive this week announces launch day mod support for the hard truckin’ sim. By the publishers’ reckoning, there are just shy of 5,000 mods available for MudRunner. Those might not be Skyrim numbers, sure, but that’s nothing to scoff at - in recognising the value in community content, Saber want to not only get mod support into SnowRunner as soon as possible, but have mods ready to go on release....
The new lineup’s flagship monitor, the InZone M9, is a 4K/27in IPS display. Its HDMI 2.1 connectivity suggests it still has Sony’s PS5 on the brain, but is otherwise a bonafide PC gaming screen, with Displayport, a 144Hz refresh rate, 1ms grey-to-grey response time and compatibility with Nvidia G-Sync. Full-array local dimming (FALD) also promises better backlighting control, in tandem with the M9’s DisplayHDR 600 support. The InZone M9 ain’t cheap, though, coming in at £999 / $899....

Match-3 games are compulsive for a reason, and I don’t have beef with them as a concept. I actually like them! But I don’t like that to play a match-3 game I usually have to play a mobile game that wants me to spent money on Fairy Dollars so I can buy barrels of Explosive Wand Dust, making it easier to earn stars and incrementally furnish the Magic Toilet Goblin’s bedroom, or whatever....
Upgrading your Oil Burette involves finding two rare collectible materials called Lavoisier Catalysts and Lavoisier Sublimators, which are strewn about the various regions in Steelrising. It’s up to you to locate them in their often-sneaky hiding spots - or it would be, if we hadn’t already done the hard work for you. Below you’ll find details on how to reach every single Lavoisier Catalyst and Lavoisier Sublimator location that we’ve come across....
No no, wait. What I mean is, Stonefly just makes it look easy. This is a game about piloting a mech the size of a bug, flying among tree branches and boggy marshes to fight other bugs, and it’s instantly one of my most anticipated games. Here’s the one-minute long introductory trailer, which I think is pitch perfect. I love the art style, which is 3D but with hand-drawn textures....
Last year, Alec Meer called this game “a miracle of design” in his Slay The Spire review, and it’s still managed to get even better since then. There are four characters to choose from now to traverse your way up the Spire, each allowing you to do unique builds and figure out all sorts of interesting ways to fight your way through. This version of the Spire is the first mobile game published by Humble Games....
Here’s a trailer for the update: Doesn’t that look incredible? Teardown is a heist ’em up set in a fully destructible world. On each mission, you freely smash holes through walls, ceilings, floors until you have a quick route between all the items you need to steal. Then, you grab the first item, trigger an alarm, and have sixty seconds to use your smashed paths to quickly escape. And now it has lovely stomping robots trying to stop you, a tornado, and what looks like increasingly ambitious and beautiful level design....

Representatives of Tencent are reported to have flown to France in May to discuss the investment with members of the Guillemot family. According to sources, Tencent are also seeking to buy up publicly owned shares to help in their efforts to become majority shareholder. Public shareholders currently own 80% of Ubisoft’s shares, with another 15% held by the Guillemots and the remaining 5% at Tencent. Share prices were up for both Ubisoft and the Guillemots’ holding company after the Reuters report was published earlier today....
Here’s a video from notorious Valve snooper Tyler McVicker, where he pores over the 20 unreleased maps. A lot of them are just small tweaks of maps that did see the light of day, but there are some bigger treats like Nightfall, a five capture point map that would have taken place at night. The mirrored version of Degroot’s Keep with two castles reminds of how wild a melee-only mode felt at the time, and just how much fun I had using it as an arena to practice trick stabs....
