The first Minecraft movie trailer looks expensively naff

But even if that weren’t the case, I would describe this as pretty dismal. They should have cast him as a Creeper. The Minecraft movie was announced in 2014, and has been through several rewrites and changes of project leadership. Like many Hollywood productions, it also saw delays during the pandemic lockdowns. It’ll hit cinemas next year.

The people behind amazing Brutalist parkour game Babbdi are making a free 1v1 FPS with over 100 maps

Technically, this isn’t news. Straftat has been public knowledge since last year - find some unedited WIP capture from March below. There are several schools of thought on the name. Whatever their approach is, I hope it carries on working. The combat gives me flashbacks to the duelling communities of games like the Jedi Knight series. It doesn’t look like there’s any progression bullshit to worry over - just on-map power-ups....

OneShot: World Machine Edition will bring the quietly beloved RPG to Steam Deck

It has been “completely rebuilt for modern portable consoles,” say developers Future Cat. But these PC-centric quirks meant it wasn’t playable on consoles. This edition is basically a remaster to address that. “I’ve never played a game like OneShot”, said John inour review. Which is rather a lot to say of a game made in RPGMaker. It’s possible that some of that magic might be diluted by this edition. Again, this makes sense for Steam Deck and Switch....

Star Trucker review: sci-fi escapism and oil-stained mundanity make for a muscular, purposeful driving sim

I, a terrestrial chump, cannot help be taken in by it all. Hes seen a couple things, thats for sure. Seen reduced-to-clear Ginsters wrappers glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate. SpacedrivingsimStar Trucker is about that place where brake-fluid soaked mundanity meets sprawling, supernal grandeur. To call it ponderous would suggest a lack of purpose, and thats not quite fair. I learned the hard way. My gravity compensator is out of juice....

How to get into Kaslo's Parlor in Star Wars Outlaws

The main entrance is located within an alley southwest of the Stormtrooper checkpoint/fast travel point. Otherwise, the AI works the same and the players aren’t any better than the usual Sabacc players. Then you pull an Imposter on the last round. It’s usually worth it for the gamble. You get two dice which is two chances to get a 1 on a roll. You’ll also receive ‘The Score’ vehicle trinket and the prize winnings from the game....
