Is… is that you, Doomguy? It turns out you’ve got the option to turn off a lot of the gore and nudity. you might also swaddle yourself in some nice, sturdy, PG-13 body armor. As the name suggests, Beyond Citadel is a sequel to The Citadel, which launched in 2020. It’s the work of Japanese developer doekuramori, who I’m not familiar with. The premise: it is Armageddon O' Clock. You are the Martyr, gun-toting anime girl agent of seven guardian angels....

The campaign still has a few days to go, but surpassed its initial goal earlier this week. Abu-Eideh says the reaction has been overwhelming. But this does mean he and a small team of artists, calligraphers, and coders can begin production. “We needed talented people who believed in this project,” Abu-Eideh says. “Thats like the basic requirement for something like this, because it’s not a normal project. You need people that believe in your cause”....

(I want to use the phrase “heres the skinny” more. I also want one of those little hats with the band for the card that says press on it. I wonder what the online media equivalent is? Tinfoil lined with redundancy letters, probably. Personally, Ive always been torn. But the idea of a gamethematically requiringblood feels like a strong hint. Also, Total Warhammer 40k will make all the money in the world....

It takes inspiration from web app geography gameGeoguessr. An early puzzle has you locate specific cyclopean statues in a cavernous alien tomb. Copyright traps, effectively - bits of geographical fakery that cartographers can use to mark their work. No release date as yet.

AMDs new handheld processors, also unveiled at CES, are a more diverse bunch. No specs, price, release window, nada.

The game projects in question include theKerbal Space Programseries and an unannounced project from Pokemon developer Game Freak. That’s from a newBloombergarticle (paywall), helpfully summarised byGame Developer. Or at least, that’s my impression, based on years of preview events. Which brings us to today. The deal doesn’t cover everything Private Division were working on at the time of their sale.

One pair Gentle reader, I have previously written exactly two boob-related articles in my life. One was a cheesy round-up of the best manboobs in video games for Green Man Gaming’s long-vanished blog. It was published sometime in 2010, and IIRC, pre-reboot Kratos came out on top. The banana card has boobs, for example. The credit card card has boobs. There were some mighty hurdles to overcome. “i cannot give titties to to-do list”,readsone despairing Bluesky update....

First off:finally. Its spread across third-party machines can only be a good thing. Anyway, the Legion Go S! That will go on sale this January, several months ahead of the SteamOS versions May release.

Last June, Valves trading card gameArtifactClassic peaked at 78 players. November was a little rosier for the abandonedmultiplayergame, with a monthly peak of 1,028. Soon after, they vanished. Forbes,who first reported on the phenomena, dont know.No one knows. Somebody might actually know but writing no one knows makes it more dramatic. The games subreddit has been doing some theorising of its own, as reported byIGN. Is Artifact being used to train AI?...

That’s specifically RPGs with “AAA” budgets, whatever AAA means these days. Beyond that, the question of why violent games do numbers is always worth chewing over. “There are options there, but people don’t take them as much. People play the non-story modes more often than story modes.” “I put dumb dialogue in a lot of my games,” he says. “I like to support generalists or really bizarre specialists, and these are supported in my games....

You will supposedly drive sports cars, shoot guns at people, and accrue in-game cash. But its more outlandish claims attracted immediate scrutiny from video creators who found countless inconsistencies in the marketing material. However, none of those big-time streamers have said anything about the game on their public channels. Some accusations made by the YouTubers felt overzealous. Buying and using assets from Unreal’s store is not a crime, for example....

Including one robot called “Fisto”. Well, you’re able to look forward to that on Thursday. The festival of nippy nonsense starts on Sunday 5th and runs until Sunday 12th. A whole week of saxy shennanigans. you’re free to see the full scheduleon the Games Done Quick website. The appearance of Crazy Taxi during the speedrunning fest might be inspired by news ofan upcoming reboot. And the musical accompaniment may include some old favourites from the original soundtrack....

Too ambitious for its own good? Me, I just want to play Where’s Wally. That’s a slice from the game’s minutiae. “Bustling” is certainly the word. “Bursting” might be more appropriate. “Breaking” seems like a possibility. This is a cross-genre pudding of fearful, perhaps ill-advised scale. The Bustling World -Steam page here- is the work of Chinese developers FireWo Games, with Lightning Games publishing. It doesn’t appear to have a core storyline....
