Creatures of Ava. Gotta Save them all

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Creatures of Ava

Creatures of Ava is a Creature Saver Action Adventure game developed by ‘Inverge studios‘ and published by ‘11 Bit Studios‘. Creatures of Ava is said to be coming out the 7th of August 2024 on the Xbox Series X/S and also PC through Epic Store, Steam and GOG. Creatures of Ava is another Xbox exclusive. X35 Earthwalker likes seeing unique games. Creatures of Ava is coming on a special day. Let’s take a look. 

Creatures of Ava is set on a vibrant planet called Ava where these cool creatures are the fauna. They live here and do their things. There’s also other intelligent life here as well. These inhabitants are called Naam. Players control Vic. A 22 year old adventurer/friend of animals. Everything is colourful, friendly, beautiful and full of life. Of course things don’t stay like that, otherwise we wouldn’t have that much of game now would we. 

X35 Earthwalker Creatures of Ava

Ava is being poisoned and ruined by an unknown infection, called the withering, that’s spreading through the planet. This infection affects both the creatures of Ava and the environment itself. In this way does Creatures of Ava reminds us of The Gunk. When you handle and et rid of the infection, the environment is cleansed and you watch it turn back to being colourful and healthy again, just like in The Gunk. This moments are always satisfying to watch. So you can see what’s going on here. In Creatures of Ava you must save… the Creatures of Ava.

Now some people call Creatures of Ava or describe it as pokemon for Xbox which is false and just lazy clickbait titles for those extra views. There’s too many differences. Oh and it’s definitely not Palworld without guns. Pokemon is monster catching while Creatures of Ava is creature saver/taming. Creatures of Ava hasn’t got Ava balls or Creature spheres. Players, as Vic, must approach and befriend the Creatures of Ava. Gain their trust and they will help you our on your adventure using their physical traits. There also isn’t really any creature on creature battles.

X35 Earthwalker Creatures of Ava

Players must heal and save the creatures, not harm them. You get weapons that cleanse creatures to free them from the infection rather than damage and beat them down. It’s a different approach and a different way of doing things. You aren’t a trainer or tamer, you’re an adventurer. there’s no sports or champion or competition. These are just animals who live on this planet and going about their normal survival. So respect and see Creatures of Ava for what it is. 

X35 Earthwalker Creatures of Ava

Now there is combat but it’s against the infected creatures and you aren’t damaging them but instead healing /cleansing them. You have to help them not beat them up. Now we have identified 4 different ecosystems each filled with their own life. Use your flute to help tame over 20 different creatures. Remember they are still wild. Good thing Vic has the right tool for the job. A special or almost magical, in some way, flute. Play a nice tyne and see how they react.

X35 Earthwalker Creatures of Ava

We checked out some Creatures of Ava gameplay and it’s what were expected. This planet Ava has its own secrets and players have to solve them and learn what’s going on for real. Vic herself is her own person and has a past of her own. Hopefully her past doesn’t come to trouble her… right? There’s quite a blend going on. Action concerning their combat and the help of creatures in your adventure. There’s the heavy exploration checking out the planet and the distinct ecosystems. There’s also secrets and mysteries as it’s a strange world. So there should be lots to do and different things to explore.

Overall Creatures of Ava looks like a great game so far. The Xbox is getting another good treat. This game has done quite a lot well. We do have some concerns. We hope there will be a large variety ion creatures to help. even if some overlap and do similar things but with some differences. Also the character Vic seems cool but she has the typical female character generic body shape. Developers need to learn and stop being cowards and boring. Add some variety. Her hair is real cool and it’s great to see more black characters but she’s black… add a bit more curves. She literally has no booty. Fix that. Otherwise this is looking like a unique adventure. The developers ‘Inverge Studios’ have done a great job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker are keeping an eye on this game. Now Creatures of Ava may have a vibrant and alive planet but it’s too dead for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Sonic X Shadow Generations. Next Level

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Sonic X Shadow Generations

Sonic X Shadow Generations is an action 3D/2D Platformer game developed by ‘Sonic Team‘ and published ‘SEGA‘. Sonic X Shadow Generations is said to be coming out the 25th of October 2024 on the Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4 and PS5. X35 Earthwalker played Sonic Generations and had a good time. Sonic X Shadow Generations looking like it wants to bring the upgraded sauce. Let’s take a look.

Sonic X Shadow Generations isn’t playing around. The story is simple. It’s Sonic Generations but with Shadow and the shenanigans he brings. The so called ultimate life, who’s like 3 feet 3 inches tall, is here. So expect all the excellent action from Sonic Generations but add in the additional levels and whole new story side for Shadow on top of everything and that’s Sonic X Shadow Generations. Very simple to understand.

X35 Earthwalker Sonic X Shadow Generations

Shadow isn’t just dropped into the game but he also has his own thing going on. In Shadow’s campaign he faces off against an old foe… Black Doom. He’s trying to take over the world again… like they always do. Things are different this time. Shadow isn’t the same bummy hedgehog we all love. He’s going to become stronger… that’s right.

Shadow will get new Doom powers. These dark powers will shake things up for sure. So look out for the new stuff. Shadow may have to travel to the past, put together the timeline and even revisit some painful memories but on the lighter side shadow will get to surf on water, soar over those obstacles and you’ll like this one… stop time. That’s right! Chaos control is back. 

X35 Earthwalker Sonic X Shadow Generations

Sonic X Shadow Generations also has a “complete” remaster of Sonic Generations. There’s a system to let players go back to those levels, only now they have bee upgraded, especially visually. There’s also “new bonus content”. Fighting hordes of enemies as shadow is definitely a thing here and there’s suppose to be platforming challenges “like never before”. Definitely like to see what that’s about.

The white space has also been upgraded. This “all-new hub world” was inspired by the “open zone gameplay of Sonic Frontiers”. As you acquire new powers you will be able to go further, explore more and discover secrets and hidden stuff. So there’s clearly more to do. By the way, if gamers buy the Sonic X Shadow Generations Digital deluxe edition you’ll get a bunch of stuff but also get to play the game early.

X35 Earthwalker Sonic X Shadow Generations

We checked out some Sonic X Shadow Generations gameplay and it’s what we expected. It’s sonic. It’s Sonic Generations but with more. There’s a lot of speed. There’s combat. There’s Shadow. There’s also a chao to rescue in each level, there’s also the casino for players to rack up the score. There’s a museum for your viewing pleasure including behind the scenes type art. A lot of good stuff so far in Sonic X Shadow Generations.

Overall Sonic X Shadow Generations looks like an excellent game. Graphics are top tier for sonic style standards. The music is going to be crazy. There’s so much options thanks to time travelled remastered previous levels. There’s more to do and find. Shadow gets upgrades as well. Good stuff right here. The developers ‘Team Sonic’ have done an excellent job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an eye not his game. Now Sonic X Shadow Generations may have shadow in there but he’s not ultimate enough for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun – Forges of Corruption Expansion

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun - Forges Of Corruption

Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun – Forges of Corruption is an action First Person Shooter game developed by ‘Auroch Digital‘ and published by ‘Digital Foundry‘. Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun – Forges of Corruption is said to be coming out the 18th of June 2024 on the Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, PS5 and PS4. X35 Earthwalker likes to see good games get expanded and supported. Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun – Forges of Corruption is out here bringing more action to the gamers.

X35 Earthwalker Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun - Forges Of Corruption

Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun is back and now there’s more bang for your boltgun… or was it buck? Whatever that saying is. Now coming up is the Forges of Corruption expansion. This means players will need to grab the boltgun they stashed under the kitchen sink and pick up the chainsword they left in the garage. It’s time to destroy more heresy and chew bubble gum… and most of us is all out gum.

X35 Earthwalker Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun - Forges Of Corruption

Word on the streets of the emperor is that Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun – Forges of Corruption has a whole brand new campaign. No not a Halo campaign… a Warhammer one. There’s going to be 5 levels and are suppose to be environments of a varied kind. So expect variety. The level designs are off course based on the grimdark lore of Warhammer 40000. For example, there’s a demon forge and you know those places be active. There’s Graia battlefields and a manufactorum. Additionally we should mention that there’s even a horde mode now. So fighting endless waves of enemies and filth is a thing. Fight and blast for as long as you want. Great unclean ones and lord of changes are waiting for you as well.

X35 Earthwalker Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun - Forges Of Corruption

Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun – Forges of Corruption wouldn’t be a real expansion if there wasn’t new enemies and weapons. Thank the emperor there is. Or is he the false emperor?.. Why is that inquisitor looking at me all of a sudden? Anyways. Players can expect to face the Black Havoc Legion who will be launching missiles at you. There’s even helbrutes and we know those boys are big body! Don’t let them baby shake you. There’s even terminators who have lighting claws. But fear not for you can fight back with the famous Multi-Melta and even a missile launcher. Fight back space marine.

X35 Earthwalker Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun - Forges Of Corruption

We checked out some Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun – Forges of Corruption gam play and it’s what we expected and should be what gamers expected as well. If you like Doom then you will like this. It’s as simple as that. Run around or zoom around while blowing up enemies, cutting them down, shooting them up, blasting them apart, big body some enemies or take your time and line up that shot. It’s just pure first person shooter action… but now with more stuff than before. Bring death to the heretics. There’s no shame, their souls are already lost!

Overall Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun – Forges of Corruption looks like it’s going to be excellent. It’s just more of what we liked. That’s good. Keep it simple. They gave more levels, more enemies, more guns. Tick all the boxes. There’s no need to comment on the graphics and sounds as it’s an expansion so you are getting the same basically. The developers Auroch Digital have done an excellent job with this expansion. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an eye open concerning this game. Now Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun – Forges of Corruption may have some new things but they don’t make a difference when it comes too… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Astor: Blade of the Monolith. Looky here

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Astor: Blade of the Monolith

Astor: Blade of the Monolith is an action Role Playing Game developed by C2 Game Studio and published by Versus Evil and tinyBuild games. Astor: Blade of the Monolith is said to be coming out the 30th of May 2024 on the Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, PS5 and PS4. X35 Earthwalker likes a nice big adventure set in a creative world. Astor: Blade of the Monolith is looking to bring a big mystery. Let’s take a look. 

Astor: Blade of the Monolith is set in the on the planet Gliese. Players control the character Astor. He is a Diokek. Let us explain a bit. The planet Gliese is a fully colourful and guess you can say vibrant place. An ancient race use to live there. They are gone… maybe.. but what’s certain is that their creations, the Diokek now inhabit the place. Then some time later mean creatures called the Hiltsik, were attacking and bringing destruction. Settlements destroyed. Now some clues point to something bigger at play here than just attacks. So our character Astor sets out to get to the bottom of this.

X35 Earthwalker Astor: Blade of the Monolith

Astor: Blade of the Monolith will have players on a journey across the planet Gliese. Main mission isn’t actually to fight the Hiltsik but actually to find out what happened to your creators. The ancient race that disappeared thousands of years ago. Maybe, just maybe you can find a solution to your current problem through them. Maybe the ancient race left behind weapons, technology or even an answer. One can hope. One can fight.

The main strengths of Astor: Blade of the Monolith right off the base is the visuals, the story/mystery and off course the combat. Visually is obvious and clear to see (SEE what we did there?). The combat is the main star in this action role playing game. There’s runic weapons for players to wield and use to destroy foes. You combine that combat with the abilities and mobility that Astor has and you got yourself some sweet combat. Expect to charge enemies, cause knockback, double jump, combo while in the air, bring down the hammer (literally), ground pound, summon giant fists to smash and more.

X35 Earthwalker Astor: Blade of the Monolith

Remember that this planet, Gliese, is alive and got quite a bit going on. Players may come across places where there’s others just going about their day and lives. Settlements were attacked but not all of them. Maybe say hi. Other locations include forests, ice lands, deserts, building structures, you get the point. 

X35 Earthwalker Astor: Blade of the Monolith

We checked out some Astor: Blade of the Monolith gameplay and it’s what we expected. There’s a lot going on and the combat is quite furious.  We are seeing multiple options and even semi-stylish ways to destroy foes. There’s even a creature to hop on to get a ride. Quick transportation you could say. We like the difference in combat style when you use the spear versus using the sword. Quite artistic and flowing, making it a small treat to watch. This ain’t no little project. Astor: Blade of the Monolith is looking quite serious.

Overall Astor: Blade of the Monolith is looking like an excellent game. We hearing there’s like 20+ hours worth of main story content but there’s also side missions/quests for players to get into as well. There’s bosses with health bars, special abilities, finishing moves, combos, a variety of areas and more. Will Aston be the one to save the world? What do you think? He is the main character after all. Don’t they like always win. The developers ‘C2 Game Studio’ have done an excellent job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker may keep an eye open for this game. Now Astor: Blade of the Monolith may have a whole planet and adventure but it’s far too small for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Bright Memory: Infinite. Insane Action

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Bright Memory Infinite

Bright Memory: Infinite is a fantastic game. X35 Earthwalker declares that right of the bat. Matter of fact we won’t make you wait. It’s a 10/10 under one condition. The fact that it’s got one developer! Many know by now that Bright Memory: Infinite was developed by one guy. The developer FYQD-Studio. For one person, yes, Bright Memory: Infinite is easily 10/10. bigger developer groups have made games not as good as Bright Memory: Infinite. We just wanted to do a quick G-Blog out of respect for this game. Let’s take a look.

X35 Earthwalker always was interested in Bright Memory: Infinite. X35 played the platinum version of Bright Memory: Infinite. This game is all about action. Players control Shelia, who wields multiple guns and a sword. On top of that she has special tech that allows control over her enemies. For example you can pull enemies towards you and have them stuck in the air in slow motion for you to finish off or blast away. You can do a repelling blast also. Your sword allows for quick and strong slices to destroy foes. Let’s get more into it.

X35 Earthwalker Bright Memory Infinite

Bright Memory: Infinite has combos. You can do a sliding rising slice to launch enemies into the air for you to dice them up before they hit the ground. Unlock skills for more abilities like charging up your blade to release a flying slash attack. Leap into the air to do a powerful electric charged downwards strike. Charge up your fist for a shocking electric punch. Upgrade that same skill for the ultimate power as it becomes a literal flaming explosive punch that one shots everything except big bosses. That fire punch blasts through shields as well. 

The gun play in Bright Memory: Infinite is fantastic. Hit registration is clean allowing for accurate shots and quick dealing with enemies. There’s the assault rifle, shotgun, automatic pistol and sniper rifle. A weapon for all situations. Each gun has alternate fire modes which are all powerful. Assault rifle has tracking mini missiles, Shotgun has incendiary rounds, Automatic pistol has a massive explosive shot and sniper rifle has sticky bombs. Again, more layers to the combat. Some enemies truly get destroyed by certain weapons. For example, even big bosses get stunned and interrupted by the explosive pistol bomb shot.

X35 Earthwalker Bright Memory Infinite

Some dumb reviewers wanted to deduct marks from Bright Memory: Infinite because of how short the game is and how simple the story is or lack thereof. Well of course it’s going to be a short game without an expansive story. Bright Memory: Infinite wasn’t made by 343 industries or Fromsoftware. It’s made by ONE GUY. Bright Memory: Infinite obviously took him a very long time. Of course it’s not going to be a massive game with tons of deep lore. Review and judge games taking into consideration what the game is. Context matters. 

Bright Memory: Infinite isn’t all action as there is a stealth section because your equipment stopped working thanks to the anomaly. You find a nearby lethal weapon and get to work sneaking past enemies soldiers and assassinate whoever you please. There’s also a part where you get support with a vehicle. You have a drive sequence with a powerful rocket launcher to take out enemy vehicles and escape a collapsing cave. Shelia also has excellent mobility. she can double jump, evade dash and even run along walls. Again, it’s all action. You can time your block to help stagger enemies and even reflect certain projectiles back at opponents. For example you can reflect shotgun fire and flaming arrows back at enemies.

Overall Bright Memory: Infinite is a fantastic Xbox exclusive game. Bright Memory: Infinite Platinum Edition shines best off course on the Xbox Series X. There’s the option to play in either first or third person mode. There’s different skins for Shelia as well from casual clothes to her default combat gear. Bright Memory: Infinite especially with the affordable price is worth playing even today. No regrets over here. The developer FYQD-Studio did a fantastic top tier job. We at X35 Earthwalker look forward to what’s next for this game and the developer. Now Bright Memory: Infinite may be fantastic but not on the same level as… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Another Crab’s Treasure. A Crab’s Life

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Another Crabs Treasure

Another Crab’s Treasure is an action adventure game developed and published by ‘Aggro Crab‘. Another Crab’s Treasure is said to be coming out the 25th of April 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and PC. X35 Earthwalker can confirm that crabs are tasty.  Another Crab’s Treasure is making the crustacean the main star here. Let’s take a look.

Another Crab’s Treasure has an understandable story. Players control Kril the crab… a hermit crab. Basically someone took Kril’s shell and sold it most likely. Or he was behind on rent and it got repossessed. To a hermit crab, their shell is literally their home. It’s that important. So Kril can’t just get it back. He has to buy it back. Life’s a hoe like that sometimes. Buying back your repossessed shell isn’t cheap. So the only logical thing to do is embark on an epic quest to recover treasure which can be used to get the shell back.

X35 Earthwalker Another Crabs Treasure

So Kril arms himself and gets to work. You must battle and fight your way through. dodge attacks, time your strikes and survive. Keil isn’t the only one looking for treasure. The ocean is a dangerous place. Predators exist after all. Besides, there’s bigger things happening in the ocean. The ocean is polluted. Kril may be the one to learn the dark secret behind the pollution of the ocean… no, we won’t assume it’s the works of man. After all it could be ocean denizens with a crab in a bucket mentality.

A hermit crab isn’t strong so Kril will need protection, especially since he has no shell anymore. Players must find trash which can be used as a shell instead to help tank blows from enemies. So crab a food tin, box or whatever… then stick it on you. You Ian;’t done now. Trash in the ocean can be used for more things including weapons… maybe a firearm. Don’t forget about the solution though. Trash ain’t clean. Gunk is here and we aren’t talking about that great game called The Gunk.

X35 Earthwalker Another Crabs Treasure

We checked out some Another Crab’s Treasure gameplay and it’s not really what we expected. There’s more to the combat. You’ll get the chance to learn what’s called umami techniques from the other ocean dwellers. These are strong attacks that can change the battle. For example using a bobbit worm to trap enemies or even a mantis shrimp punch. Now if you didn’t tell from the gameplay, Another Crab’s Treasure is described similar to a soulslike. So expect some difficulty. There’s assist options for players if they want to make the game easier but the same options can be used to make the game harder.

Overall Another Crab’s Treasure looks like a good game. The graphic style works for a game like this which has some comedy to it. It’s a more casual and fun atmosphere instead of everything being dead and dark. There’s jokes and some stuff to keep things light but beware… the game is said to be a challenge for sure. We doubt it though. We liking the different characters, their accents and the different foes. This just might be a fun game. The seaweed looking sort of suspicious though. The developers ‘Aggro Crab’ have done a very good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to keep an eye open for this game. Now Another Crab’s Treasure may have a whole ocean but it’s still too small for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Teared. Get the knife?

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Teared

Teared is an action platformer arcade style game developed by ‘Juanmod‘ and published by ‘Jandusoft‘. Teared is said to be coming out in the first quarter of 2024 on the Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. X35 Earthwalker has played so many games and recognises many factors. Teared wants to bring some familiar arcade action. Let’s take a look.

Teared is all about the action and less of the story… just like old school games. Players control a hero apparently who is on a journey and will face all kinds of threats and foes. The trailer makes it clear that players must get the knife. Seriously, Teared reminds us of Ghost ‘N Goblins. Using the daggers. Games like this can go in real hard when done right.

X35 Earthwalker Teared

In basic arcade style, Teared has 9 levels and we hear there are 2 bonus stages as well. There’s also bosses. Said to be colossal. There’s also supposed to be a range of enemies to face like spiders, even dragons, cyclops, skeletons and more. Teared has room for precision with your attacks. Players might have to aim for some spots.

Apparently there’s 3 weapons that you have to find. Teared states that these three weapons are distinct, providing their own advantages. We can easily see how to make multiple distinct weapons in a game like this. Based on the visual style and the animations, we don’t expect much from the bosses… hopefully this games proves us wrong.

X35 Earthwalker Teared

We checked out some Teared gameplay and it’s what we expected. Teared is all about the action. You jump in and start throwing daggers at foes while progressing to the right. As a platformer there’s jumps, gaps, water, magma, elevation, bridges and more. There’s things or should we say monsters active in the background. 

Overall Teared seems like an alright game. At the base and core this is a straight up arcade style get your score for your actions. It’s combat and killing foes. See a variety of levels and beat the game. Visually and animation wise Teared doesn’t look that good. So what matters here is how good the core is. The developers ‘Juanmod’ have done an alright job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker like to see honest games do well. Now Teared may have arcade action but it’s not on the level of… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Predecessor. Next Gen MOBA

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Predecessor

Predecessor is a new Multiplayer Online Battle Arena game developed and published by ‘Omeda Studios‘. Predecessor is said to be coming out the 28th of March 2024 on the Xbox Series X, PS5, PS4 and PC. X35 Earthwalker is the leading expert in game design and knows what MOBA need to get right. Predecessor is not messing around when it comes to the action. Let’s take a look.

Predecessor isn’t just a Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA). It’s called a Next Generation MOBA. Just one look at Predecessor and you can see that it is. Predecessor will obviously remind players of other famous games in the same genre. The two are clearly Paladins and Overwatch. Both are great games. X35 Earthwalker prefers Paladins. Predecessor so far looks like it’s easily going to better and bigger than both of these. Next Generation doesn’t just mean visually better but also can mean mechanics and depth. Predecessor isn’t playing around here.

X35 Earthwalker Predecessor

Predecessor has numerous characters. We mean over 30 characters and these lads and ladies have loads of variety and distinct from each other. We love that. Just taking a look at the cast and you can probably see them being in different games and universes. We got Narbash who looks like a tribal nature loving ork. Gadget who is all about tech with a tech suit and gadgets. Zarus looks like a reptile tribe warrior who while old school living but powerful weapons. Sparrow is the ranger, so all about bows and arrows… let those arrows fly. Iggy & Scorch are the heroic pair. One is the small mini goblins looking thing while the other is almost like a discount two legged dragon who love fire. Riktor looks like a monster that got infused with technology like an experiment gone wrong. Sevarog looks like a dark reaper of souls from Destiny or something like that. A monster for sure. There’s much more and they look from cool to straight awesome. Also the female characters look strong and beautiful. Honestly the ladies look cool and range from friendly humble looking to, ascended dangerous or evil to rocking and cool. All character design overall is fantastic.

X35 Earthwalker Predecessor

There’s tons of abilities in Predecessor. Each character has passive, basic, alternate, primary, secondary and ultimate ability. This alone is bigger than other MOBA games. 6 abilities per character opens up variety, mechanics, combos and different situations. For example let’s look at Sevarog. Passive is ‘Reaper of Souls’ which means you gain a soul when killing with an ability. Souls grant more health and siphon damage. Basic is ‘Crush’ which is a simple melee hit. Alternate is ‘Phantom Rush’ which makes you dash forwards and through enemies. Primary is ‘siphon’ which harms all enemies in front of you with a hand and then heals Sevarog. Secondary is ‘Subjugate’ which calls down a dark energy attack which roots and later slows foes. Ultimate is ‘Colossal Blow’ which is a big swing on enemies and sending them flying. So the goal with Sevarog is to get in close and smash enemies, fish off with preferably siphon to gain health, reap souls and get more health. If team weakens a group then Colossal Blow will get a big multi kill and lots of sounds. Become super tanky and trap foes with Subjugate. Remember this is just one character with 6 abilities. There’s over 30 characters in Predecessor.

X35 Earthwalker Predecessor

The main goal here in Predecessor is to complete objectives which gets you gold. So killing minions, enemy heroes and off course towers. Use gold to buy items that affect what your heroes can do. This includes going invisible, teleport and even freeze time. Items also can improve hero attributes like health, power and speed. So players are rewarded for playing well and being active. Even minion hunting matters and allows for upgrades. This reminds us of the system in Paladins. Thee upgrades truly matter and make a difference. This off course ends to more synergies with characters and items ands then the whole team for what might lead to broken stuff.  

We checked out some Predecessor gameplay and it’s what we expected. We like how the game looks graphically. Obviously more maps will been the way and all the characters will be up and ready. Over time you know more characters will be introduced. We like how some of these attacks really look. A few attacks do look lack luster though like Line Temp for Shinbi. Games like this are incredibly hard to do right, specially when int come to balancing. they can’t be quick to do patches yet. Nergs are better to do than buffs and this needs to be done carefully and with proper data. 30+ characters doing their own thing and effects is going to be tough. Especially when counters are a factor too. We look forward to seeing how all this is handled. The 1v1s on Offlanes, the chaos open the Midlanes and the fights for camps in the Jungle.  

Overall Predecessor looks fantastic. Definitely looking Next Gen and has the mechanics expected of something Next Generation. The graphics and visuals are top tier and it shows that serious work went into this game. The special effects and the attacks are worth having a viewing gallery off. The amount of abilities and mechanics, with the combinations of match factors allows for a lot to happen and variety in the game. The developers ‘Omeda studios’ have done a fantastic job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker are excited to see what this game truly brings. Now Predecessor may be Next Gen but it’s still many leagues behind… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Sonzai. Kumotoshi secrets

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Sonzai Gaming Blog

Sonzai is a 2D action brawler platformer Role Playing game developed by ‘2 Odd Diodes’ and published by ‘Top Hate studios‘. Sonzai is said to be coming out the 29th of March 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Mac, Linux, PS5, PS4 and PC. X35 Earthwalker has to be in the mood for mysteries.  Sonzai apparently has some mysteries going on. Let’s take a look. 

X35 Earthwalker Sonzai Gaming Blog

Keeping things simple here. Sonzai takes place in Kumotoshi. Kumotoshi is a magical town. A place that numerous young mages go to. Other for a big adventure, to learn, opportunities, whatever. It’s nice too but the outsides are not so nice. Dangerous even. We hear there those places are infused with magical energy. Players control a new student who just showed up in town.

Sonzai is going to be a magical brawling adventure. There will be new people to meet and friends to make… hopefully. What’s more certain though is that Kumotoshi has mysteries and secrets confirmed. What’s not so secret is that there’s a bunch of people and Sonzai has placed good emphasis and focus on the relationships you build with characters. Each character is said to have their own lives and stories. Hopefully that will be clear and strong in the game.

Basically Sonzai has made it so that your relationships affect both “the scope of the player’s skill” and even the story itself. So yeah, get more powerful through those relationships. Some characters like to see a new person in town while others don’t. Keep that in mind. All this is happening while you still got to handle your high school life here at Kumotoshi. We trust that the ,ore of this magical place is deep enough. 

The biggest factor has to be the combat. It’s combo based. Really about the combos. We hear there’s lots of customisation when it comes to the combat. There’s runes and modules. Active runes are the big magical attacks to use against foes. Passive runes grant sweet buffs if you meet the conditions. Modules are what causes the modifiers. Get creative with them to adjust your loadout. We see some crazy combo potential from staying airborne, to dashing around to pulling enemies in, to melee and to ranged. Things looking real nice.

We checked out some Sonzai gameplay and it’s not what we expected. Let’s start with the visuals. The graphics style we don’t like at all but we see the work that goes into it. This style take a lot of effort to pull off. It’s described as inky minimalist with “precisely choreographed animations”. All hand drawn. Respect the work that went into it. We do, even though we don’t like it. It’s apparently quite a big world with different locations that have their own main stand out. Like an underground civilisation, what looks like a  mystical forest. There’s even a burning town.

Overall Sonzai is looking like an excellent game. Most likely top tier. X35 Earthwalker always respects the hard work that goes into these things. So the developers has to prove us right concerning this respect. Don’t fail us. From the art style, to the mechanics, to the combat. This does look real deep for sure. The developers ‘2 Odd Diodes’ have done an excellent job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep our eyes open for this game. Now Sonzai may have deep customisable combat but it’s far too basic in the eyes of… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Slave Zero X. Biopunk world

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Slave Zero X

Slave Zero X is an action hack and slash game developed by ‘Poppy Works‘ and published by ‘Ziggurat‘. Slave Zero X is said to be coming out the 21st of February 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. X35 Earthwalker likes to give some smaller games a chance. Slave Zero X is going for action. Let’s take a look.

X35 Earthwalker Slave Zero X

Slave Zero X is set in a biopunk world. It’s Megacity S1-9. The sovereign khan is ruling out here with an iron and fleshy fist. Slave Zero X takes place 4 year prior to the events in the original story. Slave Zero X has basically living machines called slaves. These slaves are like the newest weapons and tools of war. The main star though is here making his moves. A warrior who is out to get the sovereign khan.

This warrior is the player. He’s originally not alone. There was a group of warriors who are called the guardians. They want to stop the slaves and put an end to the chaos. One of them… you know who, decides to merge with a stolen slave unit prototype. The player, Shou becomes this horrifying looking mecha who’s mission is to kill this evil ruler.

Slave Zero X is taking a slightly different approach as it’s 2.5D. So you can turn down corners and see the world rotate because of it. There’s movements in the fore and background like enemies surrounding you. This is a cool elements and can make combat seem more epic, packed and constant. Hopefully it’s used more frequently and not just for a few moments. 

Slave Zero X is hack and slash so you know what to expect. Get in there and start cutting everything that comes against you. Fight on the ground and in the air. come down with a strike and keep it going. Use combos to slay with lethal and style and if you’re really good then string together combos for maximum hacking and slashing.

We checked out some Slave Zero X gameplay and it’s what we expected. The graphical style isn’t what we wanted but it’s chosen. The action is fast but also moon jumpy. More old school, classic style but cleaner thanks to modern times and designs. You get what it says on the front of the tin. Hack and slash.

Overall Slave Zero X looks like an alright game. If you want action then Slave Zero X will give you action. We have a few questions though but they can wait. We have seen some enemy variety and it does give the signs that the game will get very difficult. One of those brutal difficulty settings games. As if you select the hardest one and the game becomes unfair. The developers ‘Poppy works’ have done a good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker aren’t looking forward to this game but the fans of the original story definitely are. Now Slave Zero X may have living machines but they don’t make the cut with… the ‘Earth Walk!’
