That rumble you can hear is the sound of Drydock Dreams Games’ aft elevator lifting a public TFA demo into the sunlight. If all goes according to plan, by this time next month the ascender’s wings will have been unfolded and locked in place, and its cockpit gauge needles will be pointing in the directions they need to point to guarantee trouble-free take-offs for trialists.
Every Friday, Tally-Ho Corner’s cleverest clogs come together to solve a ‘foxer’ handcrafted by my sadistic chum and colleague, Roman. A complete ‘defoxing’ sometimes takes several days and usually involves the little grey cells of many readers. All are welcome to participate.
I’ve written hundreds of reviews, previews, and retrospectives during my twenty-odd years as a games inspector. As many of these appeared in the British version of PC Gamer magazine and nowhere else, now and again something from my archive may appear as one of THC’s daily posts. Below the jump you’ll find a nine-hundred word billet doux to Stunt Island (£2 at present at GOG) penned in the year the Syrian Civil War began, and Osama bin Laden, Muammar Gadaffi, and Kim Jong Il died.
Quite a few articles on this site could legitimately begin with “You’ve probably never heard of this game before” but until today I don’t believe I’ve ever had cause to commence one with “You’ve definitely never heard of this game before”. You’ve never heard of Crusades Book I until now because prior to the publication of this post, no-one outside of Wargame Design Studio had.
Last night one of my Armored Brigade II BMP-2s had a very lucky escape. Cluster-bombed by a marauding Phantom, it would have been dead as a doornail if the bomb in question had been a standard CBU not a training weapon packed with harmless wargaming news bomblets.
Creative Europe’s latest ‘call for proposals’ is just as daft and unfair as previous ones. For some reason the EU’s grant granters still feel the only games deserving of funding are ‘narrative’ games. Thinking of making an RTS, TBS, or sim that doesn’t spin a yarn “throughout the whole game”? No €200K for you, chum.
