Blood Waves. On Xbox Series X

X35 Earthwalker Blood Waves

Blood Waves is a action strategy zombie game developed by ‘Light Road Games’ and published by ‘Sometimes You’. Blood Waves is said to be coming out the 21st of September 2022 on the Xbox Series X. It’s already out on Xbox One, PS4 and pc. Blood waves just gets straight to the action. X35 Earthwalker gets straight to the point… most of the time. Let’s take a look.

Blood Waves is a very simple game. It’s not some big story or running through the story. It’s here’s an arena, here’s waves of zombies, now survive. That’s it. In Blood Waves you literally face waves of zombies and off course plan for the waves. The strategy part of things. So if you like straight up zombie battle and strategic elements then Blood Waves might just be your thing.

X35 Earthwalker Blood Waves

Now for the strategy part. Players can set up traps and fortifications to help you defend against the zombies. We do like this part of Blood Waves. There’s turrets, barricades, spikes, spinning blades, flame throwers and more. Off course you must face the zombies with guns and weapons. There’s melee weapons and long range weapons. There’s even explosives like a rocket launcher. Take into account that Blood Waves is coming to the strongest console, Xbox Series X, which means that visuals, performance and details will be better as well.

X35 Earthwalker Blood Waves

We checked out some Blood Waves gameplay and it’s what we expected for the most part. Destroy the zombies, get the cash and then et up for the next wave. You can restore health, get ammo, repair traps, buy more weapons and more. There’s types of zombies. Some zombies have long range attacks and some zombies are smart enough to avoid certain traps. You can even dismember the zombies too. You can upgrade your weapons, traps and character. 

During the game you will earn the survival scores which form your personal Survival index. This is a complex index reflecting not only the duration of your survival and number of conquered enemies but also the quality of your game. Your skills as well as the range of used functional of the game also play role here.

Overall Blood Waves seems like a good game. Does what it says on the box. Blood Waves also has what’s called a ‘personal survival index’ which is based on your survival scores. So how long you survive, the amount of enemies you beat and the variety of functions in the game you use all matter. The developers ‘Light Road Games’ have done a good job with this game. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to see the true action of Blood Waves. Now Blood Waves may have a personal survival index but it’s not detailed enough for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Little Orpheus. This kinda big

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Little Orpheus

Little Orpheus is a side scrolling adventure game developed by ‘The Chinese Room‘ and published by ‘Secret Mode‘. Little Orpheus is said to be coming out the 13th of September 2022 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. Little Orpheus trying to make something big happen. X35 Earthwalker like games that go big and not home. Let’s take a look.

Little Orpheus has an interesting story going on here. Players control a cosmonaut dude named Ivan Ivanovich. The year is 1962. The location is Soviet Siberia. Ivan is dropped into an extinct volcano in the Little Orpheus… which is his exploration capsule. The mission is to explore the centre of the Earth. He disappears… but three years later he’s back with claims that he saved the world. Also his capsule, the ‘Little Orpheus’ was powered by a nuclear bomb. He returns without that too. So yeah, the people in charge are mad. He has to explain what happened. So he recalls the events. These events is your gameplay. He is telling the story.

X35 Earthwalker Little Orpheus

So according to Ivan a whole lot of stuff happened on his adventure. Forests, civilisations, water, facilities and more. There’s numerous places in this game which have very different looks and environments. We like the areas in Little Orpheus. It’s a side scrolling game, so like Infernax, Limbo and Greak: memories of azur, what you see is what you get. So be observant and take in everything on the screen. The details should be fantastic. Modern Side scrolling games tend too.

X35 Earthwalker Little Orpheus

Now a game like this would be beautiful but get boring fast. Little Orpheus doesn’t have an empty world. There’s living creatures and sentient beings here. This includes giant creatures, monsters and other hostile beings. There’s dinosaurs who want a meal, giant bugs who want to get some nutrients (by eating you) and even larger threats. Players will need to use their wits (if they have any), quick thinking and observation skills to survive through this. Shouldn’t be too hard… right?

We checked out some Little Orpheus gameplay and it’s what we though it would be. Matter of fact it heavily reminds us of ‘Planet Alpha‘. Both games had imaginary and big beautiful worlds. Both games have life in them with creatures and cool environments. both main characters are space looking dudes like travellers. Both have dangers and giant creatures which will end you if you aren’t careful. Let’s hope that Little Orpheus isn’t a baby difficulty game and has some challenge with maybe some scares. Games like this need to make sure to be as memorable as possible. 

Overall Little Orpheus has very good potential. We like the different environments and how good they look. We like that something may be following you in the background and we hope that only observant players can spot them before the counter. Not every main threat should have this though. We hope the survival and encounters are realistic. Graphics are good but we expected a bit better. The developers ‘Chinese Room’ have done a very good game so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will see if Little Orpheus ticks off the boxes.

White Day: A Labyrinth Named School

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker White Day: A Labyrinth Named School

White Day: A Labyrinth Named School is a survival horror game developed by ‘Sonnori‘ and published by ‘PQube‘. White Day: A Labyrinth Named School is said to be coming out September 8th 2022 on the Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, PS5 and PS4. It came out years ago on pc and many knew about this game. X35 Earthwalker knows this game very well. We hope some things have changed though. Let’s take a look. 

White Day: A Labyrinth Named School was. A very popular game. Many people made gameplay video of this game. To simply explain the story of this game. You control a dude named Lee. He enters the school after it’s closed for the day. More like snuck in. He did this to return an item that a girl dropped and left behind. Problem;em is… this school has many problems. Some are supernatural. It ain’t safe up in here.

X35 Earthwalker White Day: A Labyrinth Named School

The big problem that White Day: A Labyrinth Named School will have is that it already went viral. It went big. Now it’s coming out just on the consoles? That isn’t enough. There needs to be more to this game. Well… we hear there is. Apparently there’s all new visuals, which was clearly needed. New audio effects too. There’s a brand new character! New scenario and best of all “reimagined ghosts”. Apparently there’s also special endings too. So there is some new stuff.

X35 Earthwalker White Day: A Labyrinth Named School

The reimagined ghost is what we are most interested in for White Day: A Labyrinth Named School. The ghosts and the strange supernatural stuff was the best things overall. Were hope the ghosts looks more threatening, sound more terrifying or creepy. We want new ghosts too. There isn’t much but there’s room for new things and action. They have to supe this game up.

We checked out some White Day: A Labyrinth Named School gameplay and it’s what we expected. We do want to see more from this game though. It still doesn’t feel like enough. We know that there’s the famous and loved, while hated, janitor. The janitor is back and he’s got his baseball club. Ready to beat students over the head just like old times.  

Overall White Day: A Labyrinth Named School is a good game for sure. Characters, actions, hunters, ghosts, tons of secrets, multiple endings and an angry janitor. We also heard there is also 30+ additional costumes for all characters. So we are checking those out. The developers ‘Sonnori’ have done a good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to see what else this game pulls out. White Day: A Labyrinth Named School may have reimagined ghosts but those are spooky enough for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Steelrising. Revolution time!

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Steelrising

Steelrising is a action Role Playing Game developed by ‘Spiders‘ and published by ‘Nacon‘. Steelrising is said to be coming out the 8th of September 2022 on the Xbox Series X, PS5 and PC. Steelrising looking like it’s going to be sort off dark and serious. X35 Earthwalker oversees battles and wars. Let’s take a look. 

Steelrising has a wacky but cool story going on. So to keep it simple. Players control a character called Aegis. You joined a revolution in Paris. Why? Well… King Louis XVI has a automata army and they causing real problems for the people of Paris. The city is burning and dying. Some say it’s bleeding. So yeah, time to fight back. Steelrising all about the revolution.

X35 Earthwalker Steelrising

Aegis, the main character, is basically a “mechanical masterpiece”. Aegis was built by an engineer, called Vaucanson, to be the queen’s bodyguard. So you know she must be powerful, if she’s made to protect the queen herself. Skill, patience and timing is definitely needed in Steelrising. Failing to dodge and roll at the correct time can result in a swift death. Big bad machines will definitely require timing.

X35 Earthwalker Steelrising

There’s different weapons and you can upgrade your abilities. This allows for a variety of fighting styles. All about agility and mobility? Slower but a real heavy hitter? Elemental attacks? You decide. We already know what fighting style we want and what’s the best for the current situation. 

We checked out some Steelrising gameplay and it’s mostly what we expected. We hate how ugly our character Aegis looks though. One of the worst looking characters. We like the speed of the battles. We like the there’s multiple techniques. You can parry enemies and time abilities. We like that look that Steelrising has. Quite unique… even though France is quite lame. We hoping that the difficult is there. These types of games are popular. We hope Steelrising does well.

Overall Steeelrising looks like a good game for sure. There’s multiple good stories you can get out of this setting. Le’s hope the story here is good enough. The variety in combat styles need to be balanced and clear. The visuals are good and the effects are very good. The animations are good for the most part. The developers ‘Spiders’ have done a good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an ear out for this game. Steelrising may have a revolution going on but it’s too insignificant for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

The Wandering Village. Travelling home

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker The Wandering Village

The Wandering Village is a simulation strategy game developed by ‘Stray Fawn Studio‘ and published by ‘Whisper Games‘. The Wandering Village is said to be coming out in September 2022 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One and pc. Another Xbox exclusive. The Wandering Village is sounding like another chill game. X35 Earthwalker sees the games others don’t. Let’s take a look.

The Wandering Village has a simple story. Basically you and your village is living on top of a massive creature. Looking like a dinosaur but kind of friendly. It’s called Onbu by the way. This is all happening because the world is being ruined by some dangerous spores spreading all over the place. Now you must build your settlement and survive on top of this creature.

X35 Earthwalker The Wandering Village

Since you are the leader, you make all the decisions. Find and then research new technologies but know they can come with a risk. There’s hazards off course. Things can get set on fire and your villagers need to out those flames. There’s different biomes so you must adjust and be prepared for each one. You have limited space in The Wandering Village as you are on a creatures back. So plan your production chains wisely.

X35 Earthwalker The Wandering Village

We checked out some The Wandering Village gameplay and it’s what we expected, except for the graphic style. We like that you have to decide if you want to just use the massive creature, Onbu, for your villages needs or to have a metal relationship with it. You scratch it’s back, it scratches yours. Build a symbiotic relation with it. Interesting.

Overall The Wandering Village seems like another more casual chill game for players. It’s nice to see an Xbox exclusive like this. There’s many dangers but we hope it actually makes the game difficult. There’s mean weather, poisonous spores and parasites that love blood and more in The Wandering Village. These survival games need to be hard for it to be effective and impactful. The developers ‘Stray Fawn studio’ have done an alright job so far with this game. We at X35 Earthwalker hope this game does its thing. Now the Wandering Village may have a massive creature but it’s not big enough for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC. The remake

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC

PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC is a action adventure game developed by ‘Now Production‘ and published by ‘Bandai Namco‘. PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC is said to be coming out the 26th of August 2022 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5 and PC. X35 Earthwalker likes the majority of Pac-Man games. Let’s take a look.

X35 Earthwalker PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC

PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC. In this world, Pac-man himself returns home, on his birthday, to learn that the ghosts have kidnapped Pac-man’s family and friends. This off course ruined the birthday party. So basically we now have to rescue Pac-man’s loved ones and beat those ghosts up. That’s the story… so get to it.

X35 Earthwalker PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC

Pac-man heads out on this big adventure. The detonation is Ghost island. Pac-man needs to explore the six areas here.  Now off course this is a remake of Pac-man world. So expect improved graphics, visuals, controls, sounds and more. Off course the main villains the boss of the ghosts. The scumbag known as Toc-man. So yep. It’s Pac-man vs Toc-man.

X35 Earthwalker PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC

We checked out some PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC gameplay and it’s mostly what we expected. There’s multiple bosses, those ghosts are an annoying and there’s even car racing. There’s classic pac-man mechanic like like get the pellets but there’s also platforming gameplay as well. Become a giant pac-man head and start munching down. 

Overall PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC just seems like a good fun game. Something that almost all Pac-man fans can get behind. Gamers always like to see a remake of an old game they truly enjoyed many years ago. PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC looks like it has been done well. The developers ‘Now Production’ have done a very good job. We at X35 Earthwalker hope this game does it’s job. Now PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC may have Toc-man but he’s too pathetic for…the ‘Earth Walk!’

SD Gundam Battle Alliance. Okay

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker SD Gundam Battle Alliance

SD Gundam Battle Alliance is an action role playing game developed by ‘ARTDINK‘ and published by ‘Bandai Namco Entertainment‘. SD Gundam Battle Alliance is said to be coming out the 25th of August 2022 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and PC. SD Gundam Battle Alliance is looking sort of serious. X35 Earthwalker is here. Let’s take a look.

SD Gundam Battle Alliance takes place in a strange place called G: Universe. It’s a world where the Gundam canon story has been completely distorted. It’s not correct. So you need correct this distorted time line. How do you doo that? By fighting off course. What else is there?

X35 Earthwalker SD Gundam Battle Alliance

Listen to this. They say you can “develop new Mobile Suits to add to your arsenal. Gather Capital and expansion parts to transform your favo(u)rite machine into the ultimate MS.” There’s Also co-op as well. After all you roll in a team of three. If you ain’t got no friends for whatever reason, you can play with bots. 

We checked out some SD Gundam Battle Alliance gameplay and it’s not what we expected at first. It went for the miniature cutesy toy style for design. They are all short and look like toys fighting. The combat definitely looks like it flows. Smoothly too. 

Overall SD Gundam Battle Alliance looks like it’s going to bee pure action. Those who are fans of the Gundam world and lore, will definitely enjoy this. Maybe not the style though. Let’s see how big this game is and else they got too offer. In time. We at X35 Earthwalker aren’t Gundam people but we check tings out still. The developers ‘ARTDINK’ have done a good job soo far. Now SD Gundam Battle Alliance may have a distorted history but it would instantly be fixed by… the ‘Earth Walk!’

The Bonfire: Forsaken Lands

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker The Bonfire: Forsaken Lands

The Bonfire: Forsaken Lands is a strategy survival game developed and published by ‘Xigma‘. The Bonfire: Forsaken Lands is said to be coming out the 19th of august on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and Xbox One. It’s already out on pc and mac but off course never heard of it on those platforms. X35 Earthwalker will  do a quick examination. Let’s take a look.

The Bonfire: Forsaken Lands drops players in a scenario where you have a small settlement. You obviously need to build and expand. This   won’t be easy as there are dangers for sure. Things that can straight up kill you like raids from monsters. It’s about survival. Build, get resources, manage them well, make decisions or not. It’s up to you.

X35 Earthwalker The Bonfire: Forsaken Lands

Decisions off course need to be made in The Bonfire: Forsaken Lands. Each decision is said to impact the survival of your people. For example money, would you rather get more farmers or more guards? If you have more farmers then that means more food for the people but if you have more guards then there’s better security and more safety for your people. So yeah, decide.

We checked out some The Bonfire: Forsaken Lands gameplay and it’s sort of what we expected. Reminds us of another game with a somewhat similar style. Over time you can tech up as in upgrade what you have. Eventually you can get your hands on more advanced crafting options, get more advance buildings and even trade with others. It’s a simple game, with somewhat simple style.

Overall The Bonfire: Forsaken Lands just seems like a casual game where you can chill and see clear progression. We see the strengths of The Bonfire: Forsaken Lands but also its weaknesses. This game needs to be deeper and have more going on to get our attention. We hear that there’s secrets of the ancients but still… not for us. The developers ‘Sigma games’ have done an alright job. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to hear what players concerning this game. Now The Bonfire: Forsaken Lands may have a bonfire but it’s too small for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Tribes of Midgard. Giants inbound

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Tribes of Midgard

Tribes of Midgard is an action adventure game developed by ‘Norsfell‘ and published by ‘Gearbox publishing‘. Tribes of Midgard is said to be coming out the 16th of August 20222 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. It’s already out open PS5, PS4 and PC. Once again haven’t heard of this game at all until it’s now on it’s way to Xbox. We like norse mythology games. X35 Earthwalker will be the judge as always. Let’s take a look.

X35 Earthwalker Tribes of Midgard

The story in Tribes of Midgard is simple. Basically Midgard is under attack. dangerous spirits, mythical creatures and off course giants… real mean big giants all want a piece of the action here. They just might bring on Ragnarök… as in the end of the world. So what’s the solution? Cut, shoot, smash your enemies as powerful warriors. Players control a einherjar. What’s an einherjar? Well it’s an elite warrior who died and got taken to Valhalla by Valkyries and they get to battle for eternity and eat proper good food all day. You interrupt your eating to come down and face the troubles on Midgard.

X35 Earthwalker Tribes of Midgard

Tribes of Midgard is a familiar style. Top view, run around, numerous enemies and smash them with characters of different classes. Yep. There’s multiple classes. In Tribes of Midgard players can choose from Ranger, berserker, hunter, warrior, seer, sentinel, warden and guardian.  There’s a good variety here but we hope there’s clear differences. Guardian is like the tank and can taunt enemies. Warriors love melee combat and even spell casting. Seer can weaken their enemies while empowering their allies. So yeah, make sure too read them all to find out what they are about.

We checked out some Tribes of Midgard gameplay and it’s what we expected. What’s also available that we expected is that there’s multiplayer. Grab some allies and face the foes together. A game like this needs co-op. We like that there’s different types of giants. We saw a flaming one too. Just looks like a casual fun game. 

Overall Tribes of Midgard looks like a not serious but fun game with some depth to it. There’s more going on in Tribes of Midgard but we won’t say everything. The graphics are nothing special. Alright even but the art style is good. We like the mechanics, the classes and the more causal gameplay. The developers ‘Norsefell’ have done a good job with this game. We at X35 Earthwalker like combat casual multiplayer games and will have to see what this game brings. Now Tribes of Midgard may have mythological beings but those things are too pathetic for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Sea of Thieves Season 7. That’s good

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Sea of Thieves Season 7

Sea of Thieves is getting it’s season 7 on the August the 4th 2022. For many fans this is a big thing indeed. It’s being developed but ‘Rare‘ and published by ‘Microsoft Studios‘. Sea of Thieves is an Xbox exclusive being available for Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One and PC. We are keeping this G-blog quick and short. Check this out. 

Many like angry joe hated on sea of thieves because they are just ignorant. Sea of Thieves made it clear of what it would be like at release and what is to come in the future. Yet people are so dumb and act like they were scammed. Sea of Theives since then has been adding more and more stuff over time as they said they would. Sea of Thieves is now being enjoyed by many many many players.

X35 Earthwalker Sea of Thieves Season 7

Now the season 7 which was announced earlier has some you could call game changing updates. Some we feel should have been there away earlier. You can name your own ship. This should have been a day one thing. Being a pirate captain means you would have a name for your ship. The whole point of Sea of Thieves is to be a pirate. Next you can have custom ship load outs. This just makes things easier and you can access this at shipwright shops.

Players can now also customise the captains cabin. So hang up the wall art, put some shiny trash or whatever trinkets and bobs on the shelves, as a display. Now off course there are more forms of customisation. We hope to see some of that. Hopefully players can have a shark mounted on their wall… if you can kill one. 

X35 Earthwalker Sea of Thieves Season 7

Players can also have a captains log which is realistic for pirates as you can document your travels, journeys and adventures. Hopefully it has a cartoony and silly version of a captains log. Players will also be able to sell loot more easily to the sovereigns. Making simple actions easier for players is normally a good thing. Makes things less annoying.

Lastly we hear there will be different playstyles. What does this mean? Well it could have something to do with pvp and pve. Maybe cross platform multiplayer. Maybe it has something to do with difficulty or factors that effect features like respawning. Maybe there’s a one life mode, where if you die, then your legacy is over and you start a new legend.

Overall we are happy to see more updates and things coming to Sea of Thieves. There’s is definitely much more that needs to be added. There’s so much room for creativity in Sea of Thieves. The developers ‘Rare’ have done a very good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to just see exactly how all this will come into play. Now Sea of Thieves may have a season 7 but it’s many seasons behind… the ‘Earth Walk!’
