Earth Analog – Now Available On Steam!

Today is a great day, especially for Earth Analog developers Funcraft Games. Today their latest game lands on PC. Also if you're quick and you purchase before the end of play February 17th, you can nab 15% off through Steam. Earth Analog is a space exploration and adventure flight game where you take control of an exploration vessel named Eurisko XI. You can visit fascinating exoplanets and solve the mysteries of each one. The game is single-player only and contains 10 Steam achievements. Some of the settings of the game and how you explore kind of remind me of No Mans Sky in its early days. You'll see what I mean in the below screenshot.

Breathedge Leaving Steam Early Access Soon

Open World Survival Craft game Breathedge is soon to be leaving the Steam early access program. Breathedge version 1.0 is coming to Steam, Epic Games store and other platforms on February 25 2021. RedRuins Softworks develop Breathedge and this is their first game. The publishers are HypeTrain Digital (The Wild Eight, Desolate). This game is a new one on my horizon, not seen or heard of it until today. However to me, it looks like it has similar gameplay to Subnautica, only instead of deep-sea, you're stranded in deep space. That's not a bad thing at all. However, I won't bring up that chicken and the vending machine that you can see in the below launch trailer (please explain that one to us in a mature manner in the comments, haha). The graphics sure do look nice on it though...

Sonic The Hedgehog 2 Movie – CONFIRMED!

Well, this was inevitable, wasn't it!  Sonic The Hedgehog 2 is spinning its way into cinemas on the 8th of April, 2022.  After a drastic character redesign, the first movie which was released in 2020 was a massive hit.  Even then, there was a small (OK, massive) hint at the end that it would not be the Blue Blur's only big-screen outing. Much like the Mega Drive game released, Miles "Tails" Prower was first introduced on the 1992 Sonic The Hedgehog 2.  So, based on that theory, I'm sure fans are hoping a huge emphasis will be placed on the inclusion of Tails.  I mean, his Tails are right there in the logo, and that music you hear is also from the Emerald Hill Zone. For me personally, I would love if it took inspiration from some of those zones.  If it was to culminate in a massive Sk...

Valheim Sells 1 Million Units In Its First Week

Valheim has already sold 1 million units on Steam. Wow, that's impressive. In an article from the Iron Gate Studio team on the Steam Community site the devs are praising all of the Vikings who have bought the game. This week may go down as the fastest, most powerful and biggest ever Viking invasion witnessed in human history. Why? Valheim has already surpassed one million sales in our first week on Steam Early Access. For measure, that is equivalent to roughly 8,333 Viking-crammed longboats heading to their next conquest! Not only have we surpassed our first huge milestone together, but the way you have all rallied your weapons and embraced Valheim has been incredible.
