Cook Serve Forever looks a lot like Vertigo Gaming’s previous Cook, Serve, Delicious! series, but it puts a new spin on urgent meal prep and has a whole new story and world. It also now has an early access release date, May 8th, and a development roadmap outlining the journey to 1.0.
For the past several years, American McGee has been crowdfunding efforts to produce a third entry in his series of action-horror games inspired by Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Those efforts produced a 414 page design bible for “Alice: Asylum”, which McGee used to pitch the project to rights-holders Electronic Arts.
McGee says that Electronic Arts have decided to pass on the project. As such, McGee says he has “reached an endpoint with ‘Alice’ and with game production in general.”
512GB Micro SD cards have continued to come down in price, and today we’ve spotted a great deal on a 512GB option from Integral that offers read speeds up to 180MB/s. It’s available for £39.99, down from £48, which is the best price we’ve seen for this spec.
That makes this Micro SD a premiere option for Steam Deck owners, who will benefit from faster copying times when transferring game directories from the internal storage to Micro SD or downloading from the internet, and game load times should also be as speedy as anything with this A2-rated drive.
The best thing about DDR4 RAM is that you really don’t need to spend much at all to get a good-speed kit at almost any capacity. Normally we’ve covered 32GB and 64GB kits in the past, but today it’s time to look at the mainstream, entry-level option: a 16GB dual-channel kit, comprising of two matching 8GB sticks. Normally we’d expect to pay around £50 for these, but now it’s possible to pick up one for just £35 thanks to the Ebay code APRIL10.
Last August, THQ Nordic and Slipgate Ironworks – the devs behind Ghostrunner and Graven – announced their new retro-inspired real-time strategy game Tempest Rising. It’s an alternate history story about three factions who duke it out over a rare mineral, the titular Tempest, and we had previously seen two of them in a campaign walkthrough. The third faction is only available in the game’s multiplayer modes, which the team have released footage of today. Catch the 20-minute 1v1 match below:
You might not know what Muv-Luv is. I hadn’t even heard of it till a few years ago. Which is strange, since Muv-Luv is considered by many to be one of the most greatest visual novels of all time. What begins as a light-hearted slice-of-life high school romantic comedy eventually pulls the rug out from under the player, and transforms into a war epic featuring mechs and aliens with a much darker tone. In Muv-Luv’s original Japanese release, this twist was hidden and only briefly hinted at in the marketing.
Today both Muv-Luv games are easily available on Steam, marketed specifically with this twist, and where they sit fully-translated and with Overwhelmingly Positive reviews. iOS and Android ports are apparently in development, and other Muv-Luv spin-offs continue to get translated. But the first time anyone experienced a complete English language version of Muv-Luv was in July 2010, when a fan translation group called Amaterasu released a patch localising the first game.
There are so many ways to cut this cake. I could call it a weird game, and bang on about those for a bit. I could call it a 2D beat ’em up with your classic heavy/light attacks (actually punch/kick, but whatever), which is important to mention. It’s also tempting to namedrop the things it reminded me of, like Hotline Miami, Beraltors, and a tiny hint of The Cat Lady, but that could get you picturing just about anything, and is unfairly reductive to a game that has the right to stand on its own.
Pill Baby is, obviously, all those things. It’s far better and more coherent than any of those descriptions would make it sound.
Sons Of The Forest continues its early access journey, but what was once a peaceful woodland stroll is turning into a totally rad zooming session, all thanks to the game’s third patch adding in a new vehicle, tweaks to, er, dead bodies, and much more.
Capcom have added the Mercenaries mode to Resident Evil 4’s remake as a free bit of DLC, alongside some curious microtransactions to the base game. Just like the original Resi4, Mercenaries puts you up against a timer as you race to roundhouse kick foes and chase high scores.
Have you ever been waiting for a delivery, only to have it never arrive? Ever wondered where it went? How does the courier even begin to track a lost item? Mr. Sun’s Hatbox answers all of those questions (very seriously) in a genre-blending comedy. When I say genre-blending, I mean this is a platforming roguelike with extensive base-building, shooting, whacking, stealthing, and a heavy dose of Metal Gear Solid 5. Seriously. It launches on April 20th.
