Space Scum – Battle Brothers in space?

Discovered this game over at RPG Codex, and after watching the trailer shown: I’m hyped! Space Scum looks to take the gameplay and visual style of Battle Brothers and set it in space. You know what that means? Having your own (doomed?) mercenary company fighting slimy aliens, horrifyingly disfigured mutants and robots hell-bent on human eradication (I presume). It seems to be open-world too, as the game promises a sandbox experience over at their Steam page, which can only be a good thing in this type of game. Now, we just hope the mercenary company mechanics match Battle Brothers too. That losing a couple of guys is not necessarily the death of the company. They are promising a demo soon in August, so I’m looking forward to that. Make sure to keep an eye out if you think Space Scum looks intriguing! Trailer after the jump.

Kenshi – Meet the Makers

The developer behind the apocalyptic sandbox RPG Kenshi recently released a video where they present themselves. So I thought I would share it here. The reason: It has a solid presence of indie game coziness to it. It’s just a dude (and eventually his sis) with a dream of creating a game of their own after playing countless others. A dream I can certainly recognize. They managed to do just that, and it became a unique beast. It’s an uplifting story of two people still grounded in the same world as the gamers. A refreshing tale when publishers and developers so often now seem disconnected from their audience. I’m also impressed how their company has grown, from one to now thirty. Kenshi must have sold really well! I hope everything works out for them, and that Kenshi 2 becomes something else! Video below.

Fallout – The Revenant Series [Machinima]

If you are ever in the mood to watch something Fallout, in the Fallout: New Vegas & Fallout 4 engine, I have a trilogy for you. Now, these films are not the best from a technical level. The scenes are not the greatest, and the animations are questionable at best. However, the three movies are a very charming watch and contain a suitable amount of cheese and humor. The creator PulsarFusion did a good job writing the plot line for these three movies, which also respects the already established lore. You can say, these films are somewhat of a guilty pleasure of mine.
