Surviving Mars Now Available, Launch Trailer

   

Paradox and Haemimont Allow Humans to Begin Surviving Mars Today

Paradox Interactive, a publisher of games for audiences across all known worlds, today released Surviving Mars, a management-strategy game that challenges players to plan, build, and maintain a colony on the red planet. Created by Haemimont Games, the developers of several entries in the Tropico series and of Victor Vran, Surviving Mars tasks players with developing sustainable infrastructure on Mars, sending forth a brave team of colonists, and helping their population survive – and thrive. The game is now available on the Xbox One, the PlayStation 4 console, and on Linux, MacOS, and Windows PCs, starting at a suggested retail price of $39.99 on all platforms.

Paradox and Haemimont invite the bravest and brightest of humanity to accept the challenge and achieve their dreams. The possibilities can be seen in a new trailer for Surviving Mars here.

Players of Surviving Mars will begin with the very first rovers and supply drops to the construction of suitable habitats for brave settlers from Earth, followed by maintaining a safe and satisfying life for their colonists. The game includes:

• Build a Sustainable Future on Mars: Building on a planet not fit for human life challenges you to build a smart, functional colony. Planning isn’t about traffic jams; it’s about basic necessities of life. There’s never a good time for your air supply to have a power failure!

• Individually simulated colonists: Each colonist is a unique individual with problems and strengths that influence other colonists. Things can get “interesting” if your chief scientist develops alcoholism after one too many long nights in the lab. Create societies that value science over everything else, or attempt to engineer utopia among the stars.

• Exploration of Mars’ secrets: Inspired by the classic sci-fi of Asimov and Clarke, Surviving Mars holds many secrets. During each playthrough, players may encounter one of Mars’ individually crafted mysteries. Will those floating entities bring your colony great fortune, or terrible ruin?

• Future-ready features: Surviving Mars includes native 4K support on both the Xbox One X and the PlayStation®4 Pro.

• Full Mod Support: Built-in modding tools allow community creators to truly customize the red planet; day-one mods include a creator-led mission sponsor – The Yogscast!

The Sinking City’s Devs show the making of a public demo

Frogwares, together with publisher Bigben Interactive, have released a candid video in which The Sinking City devs show the in’s and out’s of making a public demo. With GDC around the corner, Frogwares are preparing to showcase the game for the first time to the public at GDC San Franciso and EGX Rezzed London.

“We wanted to show our community, and the gaming community in general, a perspective which hasn’t really been shown to the public that much – the process of preparing an event demo of a game that’s still in production” said Sergey Oganesyan, Frogwares Community Manager.

The video shows the demo’s production process that started way back in November, and the difficulties that the team faced when making the demo. It also discusses the ‘ethical’ dilemma that the team faced when preparing the presentation.

“It’s tempting to spice up the demo and make it look better than the final product. But this will be short term gain for long term loss.” said Wael Amr, the CEO of Frogwares. “We don't want unfulfilled promises haunting us. We want to show as much truth as we can.”

The video also showcases new, never before shown gameplay and footage from The Sinking City. The video shows a glimpse of the demo itself as well. You’ll be able to play the demo at GDC and EGX this March and April respectively.

About the Sinking City

The Sinking City is an open world, open investigation game set in a Lovecraft universe. The player steps into the shoes of a private investigator who finds himself trapped in the city of Oakmont Massachusetts - a city suffering from unprecedented floods of supernatural origins. The player must uncover the source of whatever has taken possession of the city, and the minds of its inhabitants.

The Sinking City is currently in production and will be available in 2018 on PC and consoles.

《失落之魂》GDC 2018 PS4 Pro 实机演示

　　由中国制作人杨冰打造的快节奏ACT《失落之魂》日前在GDC 2018现场公开了一段新的PS4 Pro实机演示，向我们展示了游戏中一些非常受欢迎的玩法。

   

　　这段视频包含了两部分内容，其中第二部分是由游戏的创作者杨冰自己试玩的，因为他热衷于格斗游戏，所以在《失落之魂》中也加入了很有深度的连招组合系统，你可以看到杨冰操控人物打出超华丽的连击动作，爽快度爆棚。

　　此外，据杨冰介绍，这里展示的关卡可能最终不会出现在游戏当中，这个关卡是专门为演示创建的，演示虽然侧重于战斗，但是真正的游戏中也将会为玩家带来一段深刻的故事。

《失落之魂》制作人：PS4目标60帧！希望在未来出一个系列

　　在前几日举行的GDC上，国产游戏《失落之魂（Lost Soul Aside）》的制作人杨冰接受了外媒DS的采访，他提到团队的目标是在PS4上达到60帧。并且希望在未来做一个系列。

　　本作游戏在GDC上提供了试玩，动作节奏很爽快，因此DS也问到了游戏的帧数问题。对此，杨冰回答道游戏在PS4 Pro上已经运行地很流畅，但是普通的PS4帧率会低一些，开发团队在PS4上的目标是60FPS，他们也会针对游戏继续优化，争取在普通PS4上也能达到目标。

　　当被问及在未来有没有什么“野望”时，杨冰表示他希望在未来制作一个系列，就像是《失落之魂2》、《失落之魂3》这样。不过目前最重要的还是把《失落之魂》打磨完美。本作将登陆PS4平台，目前还未公布发售日期。
