Wow. Stellar Tactics, an early access game I bought way back in 2019 is finally hitting 1.0, with a preliminary release date in March. I honestly thought it was going to end up as abandonware, but I’m happy to be wrong about this. I did try it, and I remember feeling charmed, since I enjoyed the turn-based combat and the genre: sci-fi RPG. What’s not to like?

The Atom Team, the developers behind the recently released RPG Swordhaven sure is a busy bunch! Now they are working on ATOM RPG 2, with an announcement teaser already completed. I know very little about the game, but curiously, I think it might go from a top-down perspective to either third or first-person going by a random video teased on X (twitter)—both of which you can watch there after the jump. Make sure to check them out and don’t forget to add ATOM RPG 2 to your Steam wishlist. A hardworking team like this deserves the recognition.

Last week or so, Michal Kicinski, one of the original founders of GOG, bought out GOG from CD Projekt Red—making it a private company under the ownership of one. It was still private under CD Projekt Red, but it operated under a public company, which comes with uncertainty. Especially, when GOG showed not to be a company that exactly earns a lot of money. Shareholders hate that, so, it was just a matter of time before CD Projekt Red decided to cut them loose—to sell it to a horrible company that would have turned GOG into an abomination of a store within a year.
We got lucky here, let’s just say that, yet things are still uncertain—what kind of plans does Michal Kicinski have for the company? Could he be the chosen one, or is he just another rich villain—grabbing something good to corrupt it in making a quick buck? Well, we finally got an unofficial statement on the GOG forum by the man himself:

My most anticipated RPG of the year has finally, after a few delays, been released. Of Ash and Steel is currently being sold at a very favorable price at a measly 30 euros, and if that isn’t enough, it comes with a nice 20% off that lasts until the 8th of December. So, what are you waiting for—go and get it! If you are unsure, you can read my demo impressions here! For some odd reason, they have removed the demo—or at least, I can’t seem to find it anymore. However, at 24 euros, the risk is low as it is, especially with Steam refund protecting you from buying dumb things. Be sure to check out the launch trailer after the jump!

The survival horror Echoes of the Living is finally out in Early Access! EA, you might sigh, but to be fair, it’s a different kind of EA, as the game is apparently complete. At least one campaign is, while the second one still needs some more work on. This is according to the developers, anyway. It just seems to me that there might be a few issues with the game, as a string of patches has been released since it came out. Maybe not everything is hunky-dory—so a tiny warning.
Beyond this, the game looks excellent, and it comes with an opening discount that lasts until the tenth of November. It rests at a respectable 81% approval rate currently, which is pretty good. Down below, you will find the latest trailer!
