Ship Shaper Falconeer Chronicles

Hello everyone hows it going today I wanna talk to you about Ship Shaper Falconeer Chronicles but first a huge thank you to wired productions, gamersky games and Tomas sala for sending me a key of this game to check out so lets dive in.

First off i went into this game expecting a naval exploration game but i was way off its something more simpler and enjoyable and its definitely aimed for the boat lover in all of us.

So this game is a builder game you get a drawing platform and you start with the base of the ship from there you are able to design and add to the ship as you wish and I gotta say damn I there a lot to design on ships from the mast and sails to the gun towers and everything in between this game has so much the only limit is your creativity and sadly i dont have much.

I managed to get a small ship going with some guns and sails as well as the old school boat wheels that moved the boats sorry my terminology is horrid. But it was fun i also looked around and there’s an option that lets you see what the community has built and holy fuck do some of there designs deserve to be in a museum they were amazing.

My favorite thing about this game is if you have a 3d printer you can export the ship into a file and print it out in real life that alone makes this game a masterpiece I am honored to have played it and cant wait to see what the devs do next go on steam check it out and enjoy yourself thank you all for stopping by take care and game on

PixARK

Hello everyone hows it going today we talk about the new dlc for pixark called terracrypt but first I wanna say a huge thank you to SnailGames USA for sending me a copy of the game and dlc to check out so lets talk about it.

Now ive played a variety of survival games but ive never dabbled in anything related to Ark as ive always heard mixed reactions and didnt have anyone to teach me the ropes so when i got pixark I was hoping to finally get some experience in the ark universe even if it was pixal style.

Now the game starts with an option menu letting you pic where you start either the base game or the DLC that the game has available and this even though it lets you skip right to the dlc I didnt really like that option I prefer to go through the base game until I unlock the dlc but I get it they want people to experience everything right away.

So the dlc starts with a flying ship that suddenly gets blasted out of the sky but your escape pod magically lands you in a safe space and this is where the dlc starts you off you grab your stuff and start talking soon enough your off to the races to get underground as the cobaltstar are waiting to attack and destroy you after you make it underground well let’s just say wow this place is huge.

The underground area is massive exploration for me was tough as im not used to pixel games so I was getting stuck on every block trying to jump up and get to where I needed to go.

The introduction missions felt lacking honestly they didnt do enough explaining for my liking and dont take into account that some people have absolutely no history with the game me being a perfect example.

My biggest annoyance with the game was for some reason hitting the tab button would freeze the game then hitting it again opened up what seemed to be a master control input box so u had to hit it a 3rd time to get the game to work again i cant count how many times i would hit it by accident it really was a mood killer.

The dlc is supposed to add 13 new distinct biomes that require lots of thoughts to progress as well as 11 new bosses for you to fight against as well as new creatures underground to tame and use in your adventure.

The game has a lot to offer and the dlc feels like an absolutely new game with how big it is and everything it offers sadly the game just wasnt for me i couldn’t get into a groove with it and I just wasnt having fun even while learning the ropes.

All that aside the game ran great on my pc I didnt have issues no fps drops or crashes which im sure most people probably expect a disaster at launch and judging from the steam reviews thats what happened just give the devs some time to fix this i wanna thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Farlands PC Review

Hello everyone today i wanna talk to you about an awesome little farming game ive been playing called Farlands but first a huge thank you to JanduSoft for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated let’s dive in.

So Farlands sees you leaving the busy city life in exchange for buying your own planet in a far away galaxy that seems to be a total dumpster fire but you make it work.

My one gripe with the game even though its simple to understand for the most part is the no tutorial at least an actual tutorial as I dont count reading pages that tell you what tools are used for as a tutorial when thats basic knowledge the game also for some reason uses the right mouse button to click into stuff and thats just weird as hell and took a bit for me to find how to make shit work because of that again a simple tutorial could have remedy that.

Now onto the game itself you have a huge piece of land a small house and a space ship all of which are important to you as the day progresses you waste energy until you need to sleep to recover the space ship lets you explore the other planets which each have there own resources you will need to progress and finally your land where you will plant seeds and progress the story all in the name of progress.

My favorite part of the game is there’s some aliens you are trying to get help from but they want you to complete a solar encyclopedia of different items in your system before they will help you as they wanna make sure your galaxy is worth there help and honestly thats my favorite part of the game its your main goal as well and trust me theres so much to find and register its a bit insane.

The game is super chill and cozy and honestly will probably mesh with players that have played games like stardew valley as thats probably the closest comparison I can come up with.

Farlands definitely has a ton of stuff to do even though it feels repetitive at times but its one of those games you can pick up play and put down and play again the one thing I wanna see added is a manual save option having to kill a day to rest just to save is a bit of a hassle all in all i definitely recommend farlands you can play on steam ps5 xbox and nintendo switch, thank you all for stopping by take care and game on

Solarpunk PS5 Review

Hello everyone how are you doing today we talk about a new survivor game that ive had the pleasure of testing out on PS5 and that is solarpunk but first a huge thank you to Rokaplay for sending me the game its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

Solarpunk is an open world survival crafting game thats set in a technologically advance world where floating islands are the norm and who knows if there’s an actual ground.

The game starts you off with the most basic tutorial teaching you how to gather things from berries to stone and sticks then it teaches you how to build your set of basic tools a hatchet and pickaxe to a garden hoe and then it sets you loose literally thats it you gotta figure out the building the menu navigating and everything else.

Now ive played my share of survival games this one is fun because its cozy you play at your pace you garden explore build and gather no timers rushing you no impending boss music and no bad guys to bother you and reset your progression like other games do. Its all just sit back and enjoy.

The major selling point is you can bring your friends along in your world and do everything together and honestly more survival games should aim for a co op aspect it would make the game even more fun I know a few that could do with some co op, did i get to try it out myself sadly i didnt not many of my console friends do the cozy games.

All in all this game is a vibe and fun to play with or with out friends no pressure and for 22.99 its not over the top expensive and if controllers aren’t your jam the game is also available on steam so thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Bellwright PS5 Version

Hey everyone hows it going i was recently sent out the PS5 version of Bellwright to check out so lets talk about it but first huge thank you to Snail Games for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated.

Yes ive checked out bellwright before I was sent the PC version when there maiden voyage dlc dropped and I had fun with it for the most part so when the game dropped for PS5 i wanted to check it out sadly it didnt have the multiplayer active which is what I wanted to do which was play with my buddy and see how the game felt but enough of that this review will mainly focus on how it felt for console if you wanna read my bellwright review ill link the pc coverage below.

Now ive never played survivor games on consoles ive always felt for some games pc is just better but I wanted to see how well they adapted to using a controller and the console limits my biggest issue graphically is the motion blur when turning or running the game blurs together to the point its very annoying and hurts your eyes a lot and sadly there’s no way to turn off the motion blur in the settings for the console port big fail now it could just be the games to demanding but still I hope they fix it in the future.

Next the controls itself left stick is to move and instead of making sprint L3 they bind it to circle why every controller player and anyone that uses a controller knows L3 is sprint in most games

The building and a few menu options were stuffed under either L1 or square i think it was sorry so many controls over lap its hard to remember them all.

I biggest gripe is they didnt even use the touch pad for a mouse cursor they used it for the pause button when its clicked.

I feel this game needed a lot more time on controller mapping some of it feels ok and other aspects just dont work and the game itself nothing has changed you still start in the ruins you find the first village and work on gaining people’s trust I honestly feel the console port could have had more work done to it to help it feel more natural the combat is the biggest disaster you need to use the right stick to look around and try to get your swing into different spots its a massive headache honestly.

All in all the game still needs work and I hope future updates will improve it cause I do wanna see the game be a hit even if my review doesn’t sound like it below ive linked my original pc review again thank you to Snail Games for the game take care and game on

Bellwright

Collectors Cove

Hey everyone hows it going? Today i wanna talk to you about a cozy little gem but first massive thank you to Voodoo Duck for sending me out a key to check out there game its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

Collectors cove is a cozy farming adventure on the seas. You have an awesome spacious ship and an even awesomer friend who’s sorta like a lockness monster but very friendly who will help you on your journey.

So the game starts you out on a bit of a tutorial with your uncle teaching you the ropes and giving you your compendium which is a fancy term for your guide book which you fill up as you progress, so after your uncle lays down the ropes gives you some tools and makes sure your ready which he does a great job of it probably one of the best tutorials ive seen in a game, your given your ship and set off on a journey to become a fabled Named Collector which is the highest rank and it will take a lot of work but thats what’s part of the fun is the work you put in to get better.

This game has everything crafting, fishing and gathering the fishing is actually very well done as you can just fish or make bait for specific fish which will become a huge part of the game as you progress since you also need to work on leveling up your friend to make things easier for yourself.

The compendium is very valuable and has plenty of information on everything you come across so always always refer back to it when you wanna do something specific, I forgot to mention there’s also gardening in the game so you will also be learning from the items you plant.

This game is every cozy players dream game and its the first actual cozy game ive played no timers to rush you a great day and night cycle which helps you discover different fishes and just the basic grind as you try to make your home a better place if you love cozy games its one I highly recommend to everyone the games available on steam and consoles and its 20 bucks which at that price is a must grab I hope you guys give this game the cozy love it deserves thanks for stopping by take care and game on.

Astrobotanica

Hey everyone hows it going today we check out Astrobotanica I wanna thank the team at Space Goblin Studio for sending me a key its greatly appreciated.

So Astrobotanica is a survival game in most aspects so you wake up crashed landed on a planet the tutorial or what’s available of it tells you what you need to do in this game your an alien who crashed on earth so your exploring to survive you find your scanner scan some plants to identify them then you go to your ship put the plants in the juicer make a drink and go from there.

Each drinks potency depends on how many plants you used to make it so experiment to get different outcomes.

The. Your tasked with finding a local to learn about him so you find a cave man who’s sick bringing you your next task which the wording in the game makes this part confusing but after finding the plant I needed and making him a strong enough drink hes healed and thus ends the tutorial which honestly it was crap the tutorial was short didnt explain nearly enough or detailed enough they expect you to read everything which in some sense is ok but most people learn by doing not reading.

So I explored the island there’s caves and temples beaches and animals to find and explore through which some animals are ok they will run away the kiwi birds specifically will attack you and of course there’s no way to defend yourself you either run away or throw rocks and hope it scares them.

Honestly for a survival game this game needs a lot of work and I cant in good faith recommend it maybe down the line after a few updates things will be better it has a great base and concept but the survival part needs work this is all my opinion and take it with a grain of salt you might have a better time then I did the games available on steam now thank you for stopping by take care and game on

Echoes of Elysium

Hello everyone today we dive into a new game that recently released called Echoes of Elysium but first massive thank you to Loric Games and Snail Games for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

So echoes of elysium takes place in Greek mythology your people have disappeared and there’s no one left the gods have cut off access to your realm and you wake up alone what could be the last survivor of your people great story concept adds plenty of mystery and definitely makes me question what happened to my people after the cut scene of the game telling you all this your dropped into the game.

And when I mean dropped I do mean literally dropped theres no tutorial which for a game that calls itself a survival crafter game there should definitely be a tutorial I dont mind learning some stuff but the fact im going in blind and have to learn everything huge issue for me and not a fan of it honestly.

Whatever spirit or goddess finds you tells you your still being hunter to craft a ship and find the closest light house ok cool so you can give me a mission but you cant tell me how to build or anything nope I dont like that one bit and the area you start in is small and barely has any resources to farm now mind you that there’s resources floating in bubbles all around you that you can grab but the game gives you no info on how to do that it doesn’t even offer you a movement tutorial and you need one considering you have some mythical jet pack to fly around with that honestly dies faster then just flying with wings.

And this was all in the first 5 minutes of the game I know not off to a great start but let’s continue as I progress and figured stuff out I manage to expand my ship with much annoyance and find said light house where I have to fight a robot with no weapon cause I dont have the right materials to make one go figure but that robot went down and I had a small base of operations after which I looked around and admired the area and surrounding which let’s be honest its a beautiful game it really is the reason you need a ship and jetpack is cause during the cutscene it tells you how all the islands started floating away and now there in the sky so your a mythical flying pirate captain lmao (laughing my ass off) which is pretty cool.

Visually the game is stunning the ship doesn’t look half bad after you get it to a good enough size but there’s a lot to craft and learn if you wanna be viable after trying it by myself for a bit I jumped on with a friend who wasnt having a great play time as he was finding bugs left and right many which the devs already know of and are working fast on fixing which huge shout out to the devs for being on top of there game.

Now for multiplayer I had a blast playing with my friend I didnt experience as many problems as he did but the ones we experienced together are a bit game breaking for example there’s the issue with npc respawns happening almost immediately after there killed as well as one of the robot birds despawning right as there about to be killed now the devs know about these issues there discord has been active non stop with people reporting bugs and the devs talking about it the game has gotten a big update to help and the devs are still hard at work my experience aside this game is worth it and being part of the journey and the fix makes me feel good about myself as a gamer and I know these devs appreciate all the feed back and help there getting the constant updates to fix stuff shows that even though they may have missed stuff during development doesn’t mean there moving on there fixing everything and showing us gamers they mean business.

This game is in early access you can wait a bit for more updates or pick it up and help the devs out on there journey either way echoes of elysium is a fun game with awesome crafting and some intense flying thank you for stopping by take care and game on.

Rouge Night

Hello everyone today I wanna talk to you about a sweet little indie game called Rouge Night but first huge thank you to Grey November Games for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated it now let’s dive in.

The first issue i had with the game was a bit game breaking I opened a cave door and everytime I went in the game crashed on me I reported it to the devs on there discord as another player had the same issue they told me to give them some time which I did the next date an update went live for the game fixing the door that really impressed me the devs were quick responsive and didnt brush me off they made me feel like my worth as a player was worth more then gold and it felt awesome another time i was experiencing lag and crashing talked to the devs again and after some back and forth they were able to recreate the issues and send out a fix this is how devs keep gamers by talking and showing up for them and I for one will definitely stay, now the reason I started with this is cause I wanna show gamers out there that devs do listen.

Those are literally the only issue’s ive had with the game which is an rougelike sandbox open world survival crafting and ima throw in rpg cause you do missions lol but yeah you start the game and talk to a spirit fox which guides you with your missions telling you where to go you make your way out of a forest to this castle city thats in ruins as the zombies destroy everything, now im not a huge fan of zombies I hate horror games but I gave this one a shot the graphic style didnt make anything over scary like in an actual horror game on the contrary the zombies looked adorable and made me wanna fight them all even more.

The game offers a good variety of weapons from a sword to daggers to a spear and great sword and everything else the game offers cant spoil it all. Most weapons are found on enemies or on the ground so make sure you fight alot cause you will need to.The map is big and there’s lots to explore and plenty of missions to do i think there were 8 pages of missions but im sure more will be added down the line.

You also get to build a house where survivors you find will gather yes there’s other living people in the game thankfully, I did realize that when you die you lose everything and restart over I havent had a chance to ask about that so ill update if I get to ask. there’s also some pretty intense bosses as well first one I found was a giant spider and boy do I hate spiders.

This game is fun its simple its not very demanding or taxing on your system and honestly it deserves more eyes on it I cant wait to see how the game turns out and what more they add to it thank you all for stopping by take care and game on.

Bladesong

The level of detail in this game is insane and makes me feel like an actual blade Smith not just a gamer playing a game.

You start the game in a dream state you pick your character type male or female then what your life was like your knowledge and so forth and yes it actually helps with the progression in the story as some choices depend on certain skills you have your toughness and knowledge being some as well as finesse, after you make your choices the game opens up into the tutorial and even the tutorial tells you pay attention or you wont learn so please pay attention.

The first thing it goes over it the camera movement which im not a fan of why would you stick a camera binding to the press of the scroll wheel makes no sense at all but thats just my 2 cents. Next your looking at the anvil and the process begins. The tutorial starts by telling you how the lengthen the metal that will become the blade each blade has a sweet spot in length and the info box on the top left tells you everything that is e,petted of the sword you are making and boy does shit get complex as you progress. Then you gotta flatten the blade and widen it these 3 steps are the most basic of everything your gonna be doing so make sure you watch everything closely cause if you mess up you will have to start over and fix the sword properly.

Next the game will show you how to put a tip on the sword and this one is probably the most trickiest of them all as you can over tip the sword to the point its almost a needle which some customers will want that.

Then comes the sharpness of the blade which is the easiest to do you see a blue line will pop up on the blade and will move until it hits the proper spot then it will change to orange when you have reached the exact point intended honestly best guide line ever.

The whole left side of the screen while your at the anvil is your info bar as well as the square that pops up on the right also shows some details as well.

After the tutorial of making the game shows you a small fixing tutorial cause not only will you be making blades you will be fixing them as well. The amount of detail and information in this tutorial is insane and well done could they have added more sure but it might have messed with the flow of the game.

After the game drops you into the story of the game where you are awoken at a tent with a forge outside in a tent filled camp of people trying to enter a city for safety. You will try to get in as well but no luck sadly.

This is where the game opens up where every choice is both good and bad where everyone is watching you and where one wrong move can mean death for your character.

The economy is rough not only must you find supplies but you also gotta find vendors and boy the first vendor you find is rough considering this game takes place during medieval times people were scared of plagues and everything else.

This game is amazing the detail the feel of making a sword the hilts and everything in between i am so glade to have experienced this game and I cant wait tonsee what they do with it in the future so if you wanna feel like a real bladesmith pick up Bladesong you wont be disappointed, thank you all for coming by take care and game on.
