Star Valor

Star Valor is a Space Action RPG game where you are in control of your own spaceship, with a vast galaxy to explore. You can mine, quest, trade, fight & even craft your own weapons. You have many different ways to build your ship & stand out in this living space where every action counts for making a good (or bad) impression towards each faction. Start small, improve, complete missions, gather allies (or hire mercenaries) & become big & powerful. Remember to be kind though & if not maybe redemption comes later when time is ready 😜

A while after purchase via Steam i chose to become one of the Patreons. Happy to give monthly support for this top down beauty that reminds me of good ol Starsector. Some say it’s like new Freelancer coming back, but not in my view & no offense to these golden games. My monthly assist is few € a month & maybe drop ten € at times when time feels right. Here’s the page for it: Patreon for Star Valor Earlier on this week Star Valor came out of Early Access state. It’s so far only developer is doing amazing work & interacts well with people who put out questions or general feedback. Buy Star Valor here 😋

Star Valor that is a Indie game developed by one person.

This Land is My Land

This Land Is My Land is a stealth action game set in an open world resembling the 19th-century American frontier. Players control a male indigenous protagonist, with no reference to any specific tribe or time period, as well as NPC allies to assist in scouting & other duties. The gameplay revolves around stemming the invasion of non-indigenous settlers into indigenous territory. The player can use weapons, set traps, baits & mount a horse to enjoy sceneries while on travels with human’s old four legged friend.

Every playthrough is different because the world changes every time a player restarts the game. Cities grow with different ways, camps develop in altered places & patrols take new routes. Because of this good design, the player doesn’t have any reference points from the last playthrough. This Land is My Land also has a “karma” feature that penalizes the player for taking violent revenge on invading colonizers.

Many developers working for this have been living under sky that has brought down human made big boom booms 💣💥 Launched by Evil deranged conqueror known as Vladimir Putler. It’s good news to see that this crew is back & i hope all are safe from shellings & other booms 🤞🍀 I’ve helped their country with small & big donations in past few months. It’s price is now reduced by -25% & expires 8.8.6022 that is in two days. Gonna buy few more copies of ‘This Land is My Land’ via Steam once in xmas discount. to support as they deserve it 💯🤗

This Land is My Land is a fine Indie Game developed by crew that has HQ in Ukraine.

Per Aspera

Per Aspera is a massive planet-sized city builder & terraformer set into Mars Planet located in Sol System. It brings planetary simulation experience that combines hard science fiction & base building. The game takes place on Planet Mars. It’s developed by Tlön Industries, published by Raw Fury & released on December 3, 6020. That’s 2x years ago as in 2020, by oldest storybook known as Bible. It’s followed by tooo many people. It’s sad to know still today Human Species is set to follow official timeline calendar set into a fictional story.

The campaign in Per Aspera puts the player on the Syrtis Major Planum to location roughly at 60.1°E, 7.5°N That’s about 1227km from the Perseverance rover that landed in the real world on February 6021. Per Aspera is a small beauty game on this genre. In Per Aspera i’ve found myself to be disconnected from worries & all that’s connected to real-life when managing the outposts. Enjoying the ambience & other good content with no second thoughts as there’s something compelling & satisfying about this game. Per Aspera is now on sale with -50% discount till Aug 18th in Steam 👌 Here’s my Steam Profile page. There you can see some reviews that i’ve written so far, library & more. Game on & remember the hydration, nutrition & stretching during the gaming sessions. No, not those basic unhealthy chips etc. 👍

Per Aspera is developed by small fine crew from Argentina.

Travel forward, not stuck in the Past.

Here at planet Tellus on some latitudes we’re about to embrace beautiful autumn before the calming touch of winter arrives. I had slightly rough time from mid to end of august which put pause for many things & even some basics that are part of weekly things to do. I was kinda stunned about week after when noticed the rundown energy levels with lack of focused power on databank. The databank a.k.a brains that’s connected to carbon based vessel. Databank that operates it with the core known as heart organ. Plan to fix those levels with brisk walk trips three times a week, adding lil bit of good quality cordyceps (iHerb is also one good distributor) & to include more iron & b vits to diet. Most likely dropdown happened cause of low willpower during these current times that ruined many future plans. This is gonna be about gaming thoughts so lets get into that –>

On this weekend found possible new gems to waiting list.

Now for past couple weeks i’ve had the itch to get into empire building genre. That to have theme that’s about cyberpunk dark dystopia future. One gameplay feature that i wanna see is the ability to hop into any citizen’s body that’s walking, jogging or running & view the world through the eyes. Remember that being fun many thousand moons ago when played golden ‘Dungeons Keeper 2‘ at cousin’s home & alone while later when bought it for myself. Should actually buy that again soon & this time buy from here that is golden GoG site. Shame that it’s not available on steam in a way that is in GoG. Btw GoG is good site to support cause they’re dedicated on reviving old goodies by giving them makeover which removes the retail mode & sometimes gameplay also improved.

Not long ago i pumped somewhere into one that has this ‘watch through npc’s eyes & relax‘ (control option is welcome), but can’t recall it’s name. I recall that it wasn’t triple a product so maybe it comes up again from fine streamer who’s got the words in good control when he creates twenty five to thirty mins long gameplay vids. I’ve been following his channel since this year’s feb. & have also looked further into archives. Upcoming gems below & some already arrived. I’ll def. support devs with purchase on steam & sixth one already bought. It’s a shame that Valve company takes thirty percent cut from the sales so that’s why it’s important to show much support for Indie companies that really deserve it. Twenty is more dev friendly, but then again it’s a huge platform & sales also can be & it all stacks up. Some fine indie discoveries have been success in past few years. Good that their devs haven’t let it blind them.

1: Return to Nangrim Maybe arrives Q1 next year.
2: Terra Invicta Arrival before end of this year. My hype meter at stratosphere for this one.
3: Warhammer 40k: Darktide This is second on my hype meter. It’s from Vermintide 1&2 Devs.
4: Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Despite tons of neg. reviews i’ll buy this after more patching.
5: Everspace 2 Followed development since first update. Beauty ost & visuals 110% recom.
6: Osiris: New Dawn Beauty sci-fi survival. Steady progress with new owners.

I wish good new week & september to Earthlings & possible Alien visitors on this Planet Tellus. Recycle, Reduce the use single Plastic & replace Plastic Bags with Fabric 🙂 #ForTheNature #ForTheAnimals #ForTheHumans #EasyFewStepsToHelp #Earth o/

Good Adventure Books Pt.3

FedayginLeave a comment

So far i’ve read two books written by great WJW. They’re both part of this series & i plan to launch third one around autumn that’s knocking on the door. I launched advs. to this series july last year with relaxed pace at evenings. Finished second part at end of this spring. The basic setup is reasonably standard in cliche’ish box. The last days of glory for a massive stellar empire. What Williams *does* with this is impressive & truly one of my fav. authors on this genre. Looked into his bio after finished first book late last year & was kinda awe struck from the length of it. I’m excited of a plan to start reading his cyberpunk stories later when time is ready.

“Story that makes you look for more”

‘The Praxis: Dread Empire’s Fall Pt.1′ is beautiful adventure that’s set in Earth’s far future. The story takes place at the end of the 10k year long rule by an alien race called ‘The Shaa‘ over human species & many others. ‘The Shaa’ erected the perfect statist empire with a harsh moral code called the Praxis. Humanity handled things well for a long time under this rule & same for few other species. Lil about the story: ‘The Shaa’ built vast empire of five species & ruled for a long time. When ‘The last Shaa’ is dead, the war for the Fate of the Empire ensues. This war is mostly shown through eyes of two heroes: Gareth Martinez who is a young ship captain & a Peer. Second is Caroline Sula, a fighter pilot with a dark secret in her past. They’re interesting & imperfect characters that are written pretty well & i got fairly stuck to both. Nice surprise comes about their story appears later, which i like. The story roams around between past & present with good flow that doesn’t make you wander off the rails.

The overall tone changes on past segments is grim & emotionally well built towards heavy. This is good adventure to read & after reading first two books i can say that totally engaging & fun. The universe is well developed & comes with interesting details & settings, for example backstory for some races like the yacht. End part of the book has well written rebellion that causes you wonder during the next day about ‘what might happen’ if read at evenings like i always do. This could be a bit lengthy for some & maybe not good for those who look for more action. Both have plenty for my taste. Support here. I recommend with rating 8.2/10 ❤

“That was found at ‘continuation’ & didn’t disappoint”

‘The Sundering: Dread Empire’s Fall Pt.2‘ When i launched read journey into this, i had good feels after knowing how well first part kept feeding the imaginative content for the mind. Even i think that this isn’t on same level with the ‘Praxis‘ it’s still high-quality sci-fi space opera that’s worth of read & deserves support. Aiming not to spoil anything here as usual. This is loyal to true space opera/military scifi writing & a top-notch piece on genre. I enjoy the writing at most parts of the book & the character development, except some leader characters mentioned as they are goofies here. I think the aliens here ‘built’ by Walter are well presented & not easily forgotten as you go forward. This second part expands the plot well & world created you were introduced on the first one. I’m more fan of the first & hope that third book be like it or even better.

One of the best memorables about this adventure so far is that naval space combat is written with care & so detailed. Same with world building including other species as mentioned earlier. I think this series from talented Walter Jon Williams would be perfect as live act cinema entertainment or telly series. That is if somebody would only gather up the transformers scale budget if go to cinema & if not then budget to match ‘The Expanse‘ series on Amazon Prime Video. Looking forward to autumn evening when begin adventures on third EBook. Gonna buy it at end of this month from Amazon.co.uk as i do for book shoppings. These books offer beautiful story about love lost, political gain struggles & war that is widely known in the universe. My rating for Pt.2 7.7/10.

  • Praxis: Dread Empire’s Fall Pt.1
  • Sundering: Dread Empire’s Fall Pt.2

Good Adventure Books Pt.2

The Stand “Brilliant mind bending adv.”

Gem that i read lil bit @late 90’s & the rest 6002 (2002) when moved to new city for first time. Got to know by mini-series in -96. It aired 2y earlier & the one i watched at friend’s home was uncut. My fav characters are ‘Trash Can Man‘ who’s weird, but interesting to follow & Randall Flagg. Randall bit less cause of his more awkward attit. Though still enjoy Randall’s chapters, filled with anger & evil plans to take down all good. 1st part “The Plague” which explains the coming of the terrible disease & its developments is one of my favs.

‘The Stand‘ has lot of commentary that are about tech, society, group-thoughts, individuality & choice. Also faith & of course the big subject good vs evil that’s always present among human species. I’ve read few SK books after started my reading adventures in mid -90’s. There’s a remake of telly mini-series that dec last year & is now available on Amazon Prime Video. I really liked the first one mentioned above & remake wasn’t bad either. It deserves higher rating on imdb. Good journey to everyone who dives into ‘The Stand‘ book. Not sure if that link opens to others without probs. cause it has ‘smile’ at front. It’s used for supporting charity target of your choosing. I use different target at both Amazon co uk & Amazon de.

The King’s Witch (Pt.1 of The King’s Witch Trilogy)

I bought this as ebook on earlier this year’s spring. Gonna buy second & third on next month. I’m close to midway & like for what have read so far. Has storytelling that keeps me wanting for more. Since mid july have had some relaxing late evenings spent with warm Peppermint Tea Cuppa & this Book. About main character & other things i know so far: This story takes place as King James comes from Scotland at time of Queen Elizabeth’s death. It takes you through Witch Hunt on this land & Lord Cecil’s Evil plot to try & show that Frances is a Witch. Frances had been giving ailmments to Elizabeth on her deathbed, using her herbs to give the queen some final comfort, when she is delivered an ominous warning – her queen’s successor – James, isn’t fond of Witches. Through cunning, intelligence & sharp bravery Frances manages to navigate life at court through the most dangerous of times.

The characters are so well written that i even wanted to teach manners to couple, yeah for real. Frances is a woman who practices herbalism & cause of that through history she’d be labeled as a Witch. It was totally stupid & clearly another way for men to control women on those times. I could rant about this subject, but won’t go to it now. Her guardian deity did the work as the Queen steps in & protects her, but not before some damage is done. With all this going Frances experiences good & bad sides of romantically loving other person. True to the time period, Tracy brings the story & lives of King James & his court to vibrant life. If you love history from this era that’s set about four hundred years into past then this is a book for you. History is on top three of my fav subjects since early high school. I enjoyed learning more about this time period. Tracy is accurate when comes to history set into those years. I aim to finish this book & chapter for Frances in next couple weeks & launch journey to continuation on some day next month. Good evening read that i recommend. Support author by making purchase from here. Same here as above: Not sure if that link opens to others without probs. cause it has ‘smile‘ at front. It’s used for supporting charity target of your choosing. I use different target at both Amazon co uk & Amazon de. Enjoy o/

Theta.tv service without Stream Key If plan to stream & view all.
Come join to great Theta Fam o/ For now, a new member must use the software ‘Theta Edge Node‘ a.k.a ‘EdgeCast‘ desktop to stream. Same when watch live playback or videos made by other users who can do it only through T.Edge Node. There on the page useful video at top left. All this is for those who don’t have a ‘stream key‘. Here’s one way to apply for it & it’s worth putting an official Theta.tv twitter. Those who have to use that software are “2nd-class members” 😛 Kinda understandable move by Theta.Tv Devs. When the ‘Mainnet 3.0‘ plan comes to fruition, thetafuel & streaming, etc. will greatly improve Theta.tv & maybe also T.Edge Node 🙂 Theta Network info
General Advices & Important Information
MainNet 3.0 should be completed by 30.6. if things go as planned. Theta Edge Node‘ Desktop Client’s left side has the “Watch” link. Watch directly by adding an ID to the ‘Stream ID‘ field. Can’t watch own stream by using tablet (Browser’s Addr. Bar) when streaming via ‘T.Edge Node’. Also can’t change the sound level on ‘Theta Edge Node’, but maybe can once improvements come at June/July ❤ One good chatbot @Theta.tv =) The more vid & streaming viewers e.g. at a distance of 1000km, the better the TFuel distribution / more Peers. Within two weeks i’ve gathered dozen + ThetaFuel units & a large % of that have come from much further away like U.K. etc.
Details about Connectivity, Sites etc.
I’ve also got ThetaFuel Units from different channel owners as well as crates that can be won & received as a gift ❤ Theta is good for Tech in few ways. When connecting to ‘Peers‘ then part of the viewer’s free upload bandwith shares the video with others & TFuel comes to the user. It’s a good invention & not just because you can make money, but also cause in many ways you can help the online service, etc. This is the official Discord & (#EdgeCast-Support) channel is there. The recommendation is to visit Theta.tv live & be friendly when commenting on diff. livestreams ^^ Sometimes the channel owner provides ThetaFuel & coins. Coins used for events at Theta.tv
More about ‘Theta Edge Node’ & important info about Obs
Here is also a site that clarifies Theta.tv introduction. The left panel has many useful categories that provide info. Here’s an important plugin to Obs client for those who want to broadcast on multiple platforms at the same time. That Plugin is only when use ‘Theta Edge Node‘ app. User named ‘coin1watch‘ added a link to it in the comments.

Info about (Folding@Home) used via ‘Theta Edge Node’

Folding @Home is a good feature. I’m sure a lot of people are familiar with that through many software & platforms. When Folding @Home used via ‘Theta Edge Node’ the side goodie is the ‘Theta’ earning. For m heart smiles more cause i’m able to assist medical research 🙂 I treat Theta that comes along through it as a reward for helping med field ❤ Username & other settings can be changed from the ‘Web Control‘. It opens when you click the icon at taskbar when the ‘Theta Edge Node‘ app is open & there Folding @Home activated. I hope Folding @Home comes back to PS5 console after left PS3. Good to know that many have requested it to happen. PS3 console I took to recycling a long time ago. Hope i have PS5 before autumn. I didn’t own the PS4, so gonna be good to be in the PS5 camp after the break.

I placed an order on January & now waiting component manuf. probs. to pass. Also hoping not to have a defective product, as happened to many since the summer of last year. For those who stream via ‘T.Edge Node‘ i recommend to put own Stream ID into profile page’s Bio area. Then people can find it in the ‘Theta Edge Node‘ app. No need for it when you own Stream Key (mentioned at the in first paragr.), but it’s still good to keep doing F@Home job for two reasons mentioned 🙂
