procedural generation – Gaming with Noobs

What do you get when you take swords you add more swords then even more swords and multiply that by a billion you get swordcery the ultimate sword rougelite adventure but first i wanna give a huge thank you to Temple Door Games for sending me a copy to check out its greatly appreciated so let’s dive in.

Swordcery is an action rougelite with a heavy focus on swords of all styles shorts swords great swords duel swords rapiers and so on this game is the borderlands of swords and the name fits when you start discovering just how many swords you get to find and use during your runs.

So whats this game about well a giant sword drops out of the sky impaling itself into a mountain and then the world itself cause a catastrophic event and then the game begins.

So the game uses procedural generation for its world’s so not every forest level you start with is the same and trust me ive started out with quite a few since you know you die a lot each level is broken down into rooms that you clear and then choose a path to proceed each room has a different reward some offer relics others coins my favorite are the sword rooms cause you dont know what awesome sword you will get or what rarity as well.

Each level ends when you beat the boss and so far the forest boss is a hard fucker indeed as his attacks hit hard compare to the damage you do think dark souls but top down style.

Now this is a pc game but thankfully it lets you play with a controller which I highly recommend you use one since its easier to play with one in my opinion as the mouse and keyboard felt a bit complicated for my taste.

The game is fun it reminds me of games like returnal in the sense where you get one life and gotta complete the game in one life this adds a big challenge but eventually you do unlock and discover other stuff that helps you along the way i made it almost to the 4th world before i died but the swords I got to use the enemies I faced and the levels I visited all were amazing and so well done these devs really made an amazing game and i cant wait to see what gets added to the game down the road.

Swordcery is available on steam for 17.99 its not a demanding game so plenty of people will get to play it, again thank you to Temple Door Games for sending me a copy its greatly appreciated have a great day and game on.

So what do you get when you take rally racing off world you get exo rally championship but first i wanna say huge thank you to the team at future friends games and exbleative for sending me out a key its greatly appreciated now lets dive in.

So ive never really played regular rally games they just never really caught my attention but for some reason Exo Rally Championship seemed interesting right off the bat so its a rally game thats set in outer space on different planets each offering different environments and dangers to your run.

The game does have a tutorial which teaches you the basics of the game as well as how to control your car and the big one how to use your thrusters to help stabilize the car during big air jumps which trust me you will need it.

The game offers a few different modes theres series, time trials and multiplayer and i for one was looking forward to jumping into the multiplayer until I saw how they designed it which was a huge let down.

The multi-player tab is designed for people who have friends that also have the game you create a lobby with a pass code fill it up and off you go well devs not everyone has a list of friends that play the same game why didnt you just make it with regular match making it would have been so much easier and actually have people play it.

The series is the regular story mode which is very interesting as your driving for a team thats basically rock bottom and its your job to bring them back to glory.

All in all Exo Rally Championship is fun and definitely worth it with a few tweaks like changing the multiplayer set up this game could definitely be huge for the competitive crowd again thanks to the devs and take care and game on.
