The game story takes place in the late 1990s rural Indonesia, where two high school students, a boy named Atma and and his girldriend Raya are close to graduation and also unsure what to do with their lives in the near future. So, to feel more secure about their own futures, they plan together a bucket list of things they wish to do before anything else. Deciding to get started right away, the two skip school to go see a movie at the cinema, the first item on their list. Throughout the course of the game, Atma frequently experiences dreams where he spends time writing a story with a young girl named Nirmala , who gives him a red book the allows him to "Spacedive" and enter people's mind. All of which end in him apparently drowning trying to save Nirmala , and with him waking up at his school desk. Right after seeing the movie at the cinema, Raya reveals to Atma that she is capable of powers that manipulate reality, conjuring a world inspired by the movie populated by cats called Cat Wonderland . However the cats suddenly begin to warn them that the end of the world is near. In panic, Raya exits Cat Wonderland , and collapses from exhaustion, revealing that frequent use of her power renders her in a state of weakness. The game received positive reviews: Metacritic score: 85 / 100 (NS), 88 / 100 (PC), 84 / 100 (PS5) Eurogamer apreciation: Recommended Nintendo Life score: 8 / 10 Nintendo World Report score: 8.5 / 10 Push Square score: 8 / 10 RPGFan apreciation: 89 % The Guardian score: 5 / 5 TouchArcade score 4.5 / 5 Rock Paper Shotgun 's Rachel Watts said that the game "takes a supernatural teen drama [and] gives it real heart," and called its release "a wonderful start to 2023." RPGFan 's Audra Bowling felt that the game succeeded in blending both despair and anxiety with themes of hope and healing, and that it could help players see their lives from a new perspective. Nintendo Life 's Lowell Bell felt that the game's length was padded out by unnecessary challenges, but still recommend it in a positive review for its touching story. Eurogamer 's Chis Tapsell called the game "magic" and said that "in many cases you will be deeply, maybe profoundly, moved." TouchArcade 's Mikhail Madnani praised the game's support for the Nintendo Switch's touchscreen during dialogue sequences, and said it was "one of the best narrative driven indie games I've played." Nintendo World Report 's Joe DeVader felt it was a "must play" for people who enjoyed narrative experiences in video games. I admit that my personal opinion about the game is based only on 8 hours of gameplay so it could be subject to change someday when I plan to play the game again, the whole story this time. Anyway for now what I praise the most are the characters of the game. And I don't mean only the two main characters, Atma and Raya , which are so natural in their decisions regarding some complex situations, but also the other characters, each one of them being subject of the story.

  • ROGUE-LITE | Game House Atreides

    Rogue-lite are those video games with some of the Berlin Interpretation elements call themselves "roguelike", but bear little resemblance to the original Rogue rogue-lite With computers and video game consoles capable of more advanced graphics and gameplay, numerous games have emerged that are loosely based on the classic roguelike design but diverge in one or more features. Many of these games use the concepts of procedurally generated maps and permadeath, while moving away from tile-based movement and turn-based gameplay, often using another gameplay genre such as action games or platformers. Other titles deriving from roguelike games are based on the observation that the traditional roguelikes are difficult with a steep learning curve, and a player may never complete these games over numerous play sessions, making these titles difficult to sell to a broader audience. These new games would include elements to reduce the difficulty as to draw in a larger audience. Many games with some of the Berlin Interpretation elements call themselves "roguelike ", but bear little resemblance to the original Rogue , causing confusion and dilution of the term. Some players of the Berlin Interpretation roguelikes disliked the dilution of the term, believing that in the 1990s and 2000s, the term "roguelikes " served well to distinguish games that forwent aesthetics to focus on depth of gameplay from games more comparable to interactive movies, particularly games that incorporated real-time gameplay elements which tended to reduce the game's complexity. As such, the term "rogue-lite " or "roguelike-like " has been used by some to distinguish these games that possess some, but not all, of the Berlin Interpretation features from those that exactly meet the Berlin roguelike definition. The phrase "procedural death labyrinth " has also been applied to such games, as they retain the notion of permadeath and random level generation but lack the other high-value factors normally associated with roguelike games. Rogue-lites favor short gameplay runs with victory conditions, in contrast to some traditional roguelikes that can be played indefinitely. The shortness of a single gameplay run in rogue-lites can motivate players to continually replay the game in the hope of reaching completion, making replayability a high-value factor in these types of games. Game journalist Joshua Bycer observed that several games considered as rogue-lites feature fixed events, even if the means to reach that may be through procedural generation, whereas a roguelike game typically lacks this level of predictability. For example, several rogue-lites require the player to travel a fixed number of biomes, each which culminates in a boss fight, such as Rogue Legacy . Associated with their short length, many rogue-lites feature a metagame , whereby achieving certain goals will unlock persistent features such as the ability to select a new character at the start of the game or the addition of new items and monsters in the procedural generation of the game's levels. Alternatively, each run through rogue-lite may be to collect resources which one then advances their character within the metagame, and a player may simply forgo a complete run once they have collected sufficient materials for that advancement. Several r ogue-lites feature daily challenges, in which a preset random seed is used to generate the game's levels in a deterministic fashion so that each player will have the same encounters; players attempt to complete the game through those levels or otherwise get the highest score through online leaderboards. Rogue-lites may also allow the player to enter the random seed directly as to be able to rechallenge the same set of levels or share a difficult set of levels with other players.

  • Android | Game House Atreides

    android Developer : Google, Open Handset Alliance OS Family : Unix-like Release Date : September 23, 2008 Platforms : ARM64 ARMv7 x86 x86-64 MIPS RISC-V User Interface: multi-touch graphical user interface Android is a mobile operating system based on a modified version of the Linux kernel and other open-source software, designed primarily for touchscreen mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. Android is developed by a consortium of developers known as the Open Handset Alliance, though its most widely used version is primarily developed by Google. It was unveiled in November 2007, with the first commercial Android device, the HTC Dream, being launched in September 2008. At its core, the operating system is known as the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and is free and open-source software (FOSS) primarily licensed under the Apache License. However, most devices run on the proprietary Android version developed by Google, which ships with additional proprietary closed-source software pre-installed, most notably Google Mobile Services (GMS) which includes core apps such as Google Chrome, the digital distribution platform Google Play, and the associated Google Play Services development platform. Firebase Cloud Messaging is used for push notifications. While AOSP is free, the "Android" name and logo are trademarks of Google, which imposes standards to restrict the use of Android branding by "uncertified" devices outside their ecosystem. Over 70 percent of smartphones based on the Android Open Source Project run Google's ecosystem (which is known simply as Android ), some with vendor-customized user interfaces and software suites, such as TouchWiz and later One UI by Samsung and HTC Sense. Competing ecosystems and forks of AOSP include Fire OS (developed by Amazon), ColorOS by Oppo, OriginOS by Vivo, MagicUI by Honor, or custom ROMs such as LineageOS. The source code has been used to develop variants of Android on a range of other electronics, such as game consoles, digital cameras, portable media players, and PCs, each with a specialized user interface. Some well-known derivatives include Android TV for televisions and Wear OS for wearables, both developed by Google. Software packages on Android, which use the APK format, are generally distributed through proprietary application stores like Google Play Store, Amazon Appstore, Samsung Galaxy Store, Huawei AppGallery, Cafe Bazaar, GetJar, and Aptoide, or open source platforms like F-Droid.

  • Windows 10 | Game House Atreides

    Windows 10 is a major release of Microsoft's Windows NT operating system and was made available for download via MSDN and TechNet, as a free upgrade for retail copies of Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 users via the Windows Store, and to Windows 7 users via Windows Update microsoft windows 10 Developer : Microsoft OS Family : Microsoft Windows NT Release Date : July 29, 2015 Platforms : IA-32, x86-64, ARMv7, ARMv8 User Interface : Windows shell (GUI) Editions: Baseline editions: Home , Pro, Pro for Workstations Organizational editions: Enterprise, Enterprise LTSC, Education, Pro Education Windows 10 , a major release of Microsoft 's Windows NT operating system, was made available for download via MSDN and TechNet, as a free upgrade for retail copies of Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 users via the Windows Store , and to Windows 7 users via Windows Update. Windows 10 receives new builds on an ongoing basis, which are available at no additional cost to users. Windows 10 received generally positive reviews upon its original release. Critics praised Microsof t's decision to provide the desktop-oriented interface in line with previous versions of Windows , contrasting the tablet-oriented approach of Windows 8 , although Windows 10 's touch-oriented user interface mode was criticized for containing regressions upon the touch-oriented interface of its predecessor. Critics also praised the improvements to Windows 10 's bundled software over Windows 8.1 , Xbox Live integration, as well as the functionality and capabilities of the Cortana personal assistant and the replacement of Internet Explorer with Microsoft Edge. Windows 10 is the final version of Windows that supports 32-bit processors (IA-32 and ARMv7 -based) and devices with BIOS firmware. Its successor, Windows 11 , requires a device that uses UEFI firmware and a 64-bit processor in any supported architecture (x86-64 for x86 and ARMv8 for ARM). DirectX 12 : Windows 10 includes DirectX 12 alongside WDDM 2.0. Unveiled March 2014 at GDC, DirectX 12 aims to provide "console-level efficiency" with "closer to the metal" access to hardware resources, and reduced CPU and graphics driver overhead. Most of the performance improvements are achieved through low-level programming, which can reduce single-threaded CPU bottlenecking caused by abstraction through higher level APIs. The performance gains achieved by allowing developers direct access to GPU resources is similar to other low-level rendering initiatives such as AMD's Mantle, Apple's Metal API or the OpenGL successor, Vulkan. WDDM 2.0 introduces a new virtual memory management and allocation system to reduce workload on the kernel-mode driver. Xbox One integration : Windows 10 brings more updates to the Xbox app introduced in Windows 8 . Games from the Xbox One can be streamed to any Windows 10 device excluding smartphones. Game Bar and Game: DVR : Windows 10 introduces the Game Bar , which provides screenshot and video capture functionality for Windows games. Users can invoke the game bar, record gameplay, or take a screenshot using the appropriate keyboard shortcuts. Windows 10 can also continuously capture gameplays in the background; this allows the user to request that the last few users defined moments of gameplay be saved to the hard disk. This is useful if a user wants to save and/or share a moment of gameplay but did not think to explicitly record it beforehand. The Game Bar was later upgraded into a larger overlay, which now features "widgets" windows for functionality such as the user's Xbox friends list, audio settings, and system performance information. Gaming : Windows 10 provides greater integration with the Xbox ecosystem. Xbox SmartGlass is succeeded by the Xbox Console Companion (formerly the Xbox app), which allows users to browse their game library (including both PC and Xbox console games), and Game DVR is also available using a keyboard shortcut, allowing users to save the last 30 seconds of gameplay as a video that can be shared to Xbox Live , OneDrive, or elsewhere. Windows 10 also allows users to control and play games from an Xbox One console over a local network. The Xbox Live SDK allows application developers to incorporate Xbox Live functionality into their apps, and future wireless Xbox One accessories, such as controllers, are supported on Windows with an adapter. Microsoft also intends to allow cross-purchases and save synchronization between Xbox One and Windows 10 versions of games; Microsoft Studios games such as ReCore and Quantum Break are intended as being exclusive to Windows 10 and Xbox One . Windows 10 adds native game recording and screenshot capture ability using the newly introduced Game Bar . Users can also have the OS continuously record gameplay in the background, which then allows the user to save the last few moments of gameplay to the storage device. Source: Wikipedia contributors.

  • ACTION ROLE-PLAYING GAME | Game House Atreides

    An action role-playing game (Action RPG, ARPG) is that game which incorporates elements from both genres role-playing game and action game action role-playing games An action role-playing game (Action RPG, ARPG ) is that game which incorporates elements from both genres role-playing game and action game . The main difference betweeb an action RPG and a classic RPG is the combat system. The action RPG use a real-time combat system similar to hack and slash or shooter games , where the player has a direct control over the character. Still, an ARPG , like any other classic RPG , focus on specific elements such an improving status of character's attributes, skills, abilities through accumulated experience over time, an inventory of personal items and a set of equipped gear with different characteristics meant to help the player's avatar. The Tower of Druaga was one of the first RPGs which made use of game elements specific to an action RPG . It was released in June 1984 by Namco for Namco Super Pac-Man Arcade system. In the same year, inspired or not by The Tower of Druaga big success in Japan, pther two games with action RPG elements were launched in Japan: Dragon Slayer (10 Sep) and Hydlide (13 Dec). Anyway there are more debates about which one was the first ARPG in history. AllGame listed the following games released prior to 1984 as action RPGs : Temple of Apshai (1979) and its sequel Gateway to Apshai (1983), Beneath the Pyramids (1980), Bokosuka Wars (1983), and Sword of Fargoal (1983). Jeremy Parish of USgamer claimed that Adventure (1980) was an action RPG . He also argues that action RPGs were popularized in Japan by The Tower of Druaga . Falcom's Dragon Slayer , created by Yoshio Kiya, is "the very first action-RPG ever made" according to GameSetWatch. Shaun Musgrave of TouchArcade notes that Adventure lacked RPG mechanics such as experience points and permanent character growth, and argues that Gateway to Apshai is "the earliest game I'd feel comfortable calling an action-RPG " but notes that "it doesn't fit neatly into our modern genre classifications", though came closer than Bokosuka Wars released the same year. Bill Loguidice and Matt Barton claimed that the Intellivision games Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (1982) and Treasure of Tarmin (1983) were action RPGs . According to John Szczepaniak, it "cannot be overstated how influential Hydlide was on the ARPGs which followed it". He also mention in its book The Untold History of Japanese Game Developers Vol 2 that "Courageous Perseus is one of the earliest if not the first Action-RPG ". Source: Wikipedia contributors.
