Archrebel: Tactics – Awesome Music Incoming

The dev for Archrebel: Tactics keep posting music tracks from his upcoming X-com like turn-based tactical game on the Codex forum, and I figured I just had to share. It has this great synth flavor to it, it’s futuristic and space:y but with a clear military theme. Excellent stuff!

Archrebel: Tactics – Upcoming X-com-like

Archrebel Tactics is an upcoming turn-based tactical game made by Fernando Pereira. It’s based on Rebelstar released all the way back in 1986 – hence the retro graphics!

Halo – Episode 1 impressions

Didn’t plan to watch this considering the recent track record of Halo (Yes, even Halo Infinite), and in general games to movie adaptations… But, as a fan of Halo at least one time long ago, I had to give it a go. I have always liked the universe, the struggle and the military aspect of it – so if enough of that stuff gets transferred over it should be an okay watch, right? Well, what can I say, it does keep some details of the games, like names and the general universe setting, overall, though, I found the whole thing pretty abysmal with it being Halo on a visual level only.
