From GameWatcher: "Are you a big player of games like Jagged Alliance and XCOM? Let's talk about Shock Tactics, a single player sci-fi turn-based strategy game that's in development for the PC by Point Blank Games and will be released this summer.
The developers say it's inspired by the space western style of the popular sci-fi series Firefly, with squad management and base building. As you can tell by the trailer at the bottom of this article, it's certainly got an XCOM feel to it."
The dust of 2016 has finally settled and we grogs have hunkered down, frantically scanning the horizon for whatever may come next.
First go and read our review of Shock Tatics Finished? Great! Now lets talk about some of the things Rob didnt like, the AI for one. Now Point Blank Games are trying to fix that in their latest update.
Hosts Dandr0id and Jack McBastard talk about Trademark law, Praey for the Gods, and how Steam just gave G2A the world's biggest middle finger. All of that and more on this episode of The Digital Fiasco Podcast.
