Terra Tech 64bit - Rocket Mode


Back with the second of our Terra Tech videos and fittingly with the second 64bit build release of Terra Tech.

Join myself (Boonana J) and The Bean in this video, as we have our first play about with rocket mode!




Things are continuing to look promising for this game, and quite a few of the bugs we found in the last build have been resolved, so hopefully some of our bug reporting aided this. =)

Thanks for watching, and why not show some support for Terra Tech by liking their facebook page: HERE

Salvaged


Salvaged is an upcoming tactical strategy game that brings a new, enjoyable approach to modern day gaming via an amalgam of the mobile and PC platforms.


Join The Bean and myself (Boonana J) as we fight our way through alien creatures in this pre-alpha, on conquest for the black box, and be sure to check out our other videos!




You are the commander of a 4 person tactical salvage crew, carrying out black box recovery contracts in deep space. As the commander, you control your salvage tacticians via a tablet / mobile device, monitoring their movements and vitals via a PC.

The tablet acts as a mini-map, hud and controller for the game, displaying hostiles as red dots, and giving you a birds eye view of their location, as you navigate them. The PC side shows you their kill cams, and through these you will be able to spot additional salvage on your journey to the black box, which can not be seen via the tablet side mini-map.



It is recommended that a tablet be used for the larger screen size, but in this video we used the Samsung Galaxy Note which was more than capable of running this game. Our Samsung Galaxy Note was modified by Boonana J and now features a huge battery pack, making this device more suitable for our needs.


Hopefully we will see some of our ideas being introduced in upcoming updates for this game, and we may even be working on some other projects for Opposable Games =)

Evolve


Evolve is the latest game in development from the creators of Left 4 Dead.

Officially we are not allowed to say much about this game as yet, but thanks to 2K games, we have had the opportunity to check this game out, and spend some time getting a good feel for it.


So what can we say... Well, it's pretty damn awesome is what we can say, and will be a nice addition to cooperative gaming. We certainly cant wait to receive our copies of the full game! =D

The official trailer.



The latest interactive trailer, featuring game play and commentary.

Evolve is being released on Xbox One, PS4, and best of all PC.

Space Farmers


Space Farmers is an awesome, colourful, indie, co-op, puzzle, shooter, which we'll dub ACICPS for the acronym lovers out there, that offers some fun and enjoyable game play to those of us that appreciate adventuring with a friend. =D

Join The Bean and Myself (Boonana J) in this video, as we embark on our 5 leveled quest for home!


Our Space Farmer characters have been trapped upon an alien space station, that has been taken over by killer robots, somewhat reminiscent to Critters from the 80s horror films, with their glowing red eyes, many chompy teeth, and unsatisfiable hunger.

These mechanical menaces are already responsible for the demise of our farmers original alien capters, but does this phase our characters... Certainly not, this is merely another opportunity to embrace your inner Hill Billy Bumpkin Spirit, and another excuse to reach for the scrumpy an don go do sum shootin! =D

If you have enjoyed our adventure, keep posted for more upcoming videos, and why not get the game and do some chompy blastin of yer own!

Made by The Bumpkin Brothers.

You can show your support for this game on their facebook page or Twitter, and don't forget to mention where you saw Space Farmers! =D

Space Farmers also provides free game updates via Steam.
The concept of buying the game and receiving free updates has been lost and drowned out by all the  pay for many parts of a deliberately fragmented game nonsense that's about these days.


If not for the enjoyable game play, and pleasingly simplistic graphics that this game offers. People should support Space Farmers for being one of the few games that still follows the traditional free update concept.

You wouldn't keep paying for a movie in 10 minute chunks would you...




Keep an eye out for our competition coming up soon. You could be in for a chance to win a pair of steam codes to play this game with a friend for FREE! =D

Terra Tech


Join myself (Boonana J) and the Bean in this video where we show you the Terra Tech pre-alpha from West London Games. This is one of the many games we are being asked to play and test, so stand by for more content like this. =D



Terra Tech is looking to be a promising game, offering a fun sandbox survival environment, with on the fly construction.

This game for us feels like a nice blend of virtual Lego and Kerbal Space Program, whilst maintaining an individual and fresh identity, that left us wanting more.

With it being pre-alpha it is a little to early for us to provide full quality assurance support, however we have been contributing to bug reporting to help speed up the development of this game, and have shared some of our ideas for in game content with the development team.

Will our ideas be included... you will have to watch this space, and we will be sure to bring you plenty more videos on the upcoming builds of the game. =D

So stand by as we make preparations, and get testing what recording hardware we will be using for this content. =D
