☆ The Count Lucanor - "A Boy And His Rabbid Goats!" ☆ #GameDev #GamersUnite #PixelArt
Last night a video game stole my heart and then messed with my brain!
The Count Lucanor is one surprise that I wasn’t expecting when I loaded it up from Steam.
When I took a peek at the screen shots I was thinking it looks like a nice pixel art style Action RPG.
When it started up I was hooked from moment one.

☆ 2016 -The PS4 Diaries Part 4 "My Return To Ravenholm Moment" ☆ #PS4 #GamersUnite
For me Ravenholm in Half Life 2 is one of the pinnacles in video gaming from the last 30 years.
The level typifies the classy way that Half Life 2 was constructed and implemented.
There was tension, there was terror and there was the Gravity Gun and some handy buzzsaw blades.

☆ At Full Velocity With Velocity Stream ☆ #GameDev #GamersUnite
I’ve had a few days to play Velocity Stream and I can safely say that this game is something special.
The initial view leads you to think of Wipeout and F-Zero which are those awesome futuristic racers that all other futuristic racers tend to be compared to.

Let me just state straight away that IronCast oozes class.
From the start it feels good as it sets the scene for a brilliant video game.

☆ Retrogaming VS Current Gen Gaming (a happy harmony) ☆ #retrogaming #gamersunite #gamedev
When I set out to make the Games Freezer website I was firmly in the retrogaming camp as I had become disillusioned with the current generation of video games
(this was XBOX360&PS4 era).
I wanted to create a space to share my passion for the video games of old and all the cool culture surrounding the retrogaming scene.

☆ Ironcast Is Coming To PS4 & XBOX One ☆ #PS4 #GameDev
Ironcast caught my eye immediately as a fusion of a few styles. Take Steampunk and add it into a Victorian London landscape. When I saw the screens I immediately thought of Walker on the Commodore Amiga.
Throw into that cool mix a ‘match 3’ game play mechanic and it would appear that on the surface of it you get a an interesting twist on a few styles of videogame.

☆ 2016 -The PS4 Diaries Part 3 "Me,Myself & My PS4 Cam" ☆ #PS4 #GamersUnite
In doing the Games Freezer website for the last 3 years I have always wanted to branch out to doing Games Freezer YouTube videos.
I’ve always had lots of ideas of where I could take it but never really had the time to do the videos and the website.
Now I’ve got my PS4 it feels like I have the opportunity to finally do what I’ve always wanted to do.
