Superhot

Superhot is a first-person shooter game, created by Superhot Team.The gold of the game is that player has to take out enemy targets using guns, swords and other weapons.Time withing game only progresses when player moves.This gives the player the opportunity  to assess their situation and respond appropriately, making the gameplay similar to strategy-based games. The game is presented in a minimalist art style, with enemies in red in contrast to white and grey backgrounds.

Superhot was released for Microsoft Windows, OS X, and Linux on 25 February 2016, with an Xbox One version anticipated in March 2016; the Superhot Team has also stated plans to support virtual reality devices. The game was met with positive reception, with reviewers considering the title to be a fresh take on the first-person shooter genre.

Gameplay

Superhot sets the player in a minimalistic environment, taking out hostile attackers that are trying to kill them. Weapons picked up by the player have limited ammunition, requiring the player to rely on defeating enemies to get more ammo, or making melee kills. Taking a single hit from an enemy bullet kills the player, requiring them to restart the level. Though the game mechanics are typical of most shooters, the distinguishing feature is that time only moves forward at normal speed when the player performs an action like moving or firing a gun, otherwise time moves very slowly; this is described in the game’s tagline “Time Moves Only When You Move”.This gives the player the opportunity to alter their actions as to avoid the path of bullets or to better assess their current situation.

One significant change from the earlier prototype is that the player does not automatically pick up a weapon when they pass over it but must enact a specific control to do so, enabling the player to selectively choose and use weapons, or grab weapons as they fall out of opponent’s hands. The full version the game also enables the player to jump and as long as the jump button or key is held, the player can slow down time to plan out and perform actions, enabling aerial gunplay.

In the last portion of the campaign, the player also becomes able to “hotswitch” into an enemy’s body; this moves the player’s perspective permanently into the target, and kills the previous body. The manoeuvre allows the player to escape projectiles that are too close to dodge, but has a cooldown timer that prevents repeated use, and the new body also drops its weapons upon switching.

In addition to the campaign mode, the full release of Superhot includes an “endless” mode where the player survives as long as they can against an endless stream of enemies. A “challenge” mode allows players to replay the campaign mode levels but under specific restrictions or requirements, such as completing the level within a limited amount of time or only using a specific type of weapon. The final game also includes replay editor to allow users to prepare video clips to share on social media websites.

ONE OF MANY TRAILERS

Clash Royale

Following success of their 3 games (Clash of Clans, Boom Beach and Hay Day) Supercell has decided to make a new game and its Clash Royale.

In the game “beta” it has made a great success and after it’s release (1 march 2016) its already counting more then 100 000 players on Android.Players rate the game 4.6 so it shares the first place (if we look at the rating) with Clash of Clans when it comes to Supercell games.

Supercell team has taken a few characters from Clash of Clans and put them in Clash Royale (Giant, Barbarians, Skeletons and others) but most of others characters we see in Clash Royale are made strictly for that game (where developers didnt hide idea of putting some characters from Clash Royale to Clash of Clans).

Gameplay

Clash Royale is real-time strategy game where players face each others with one gold, to destroy enemy crown tower’s in order to win.Each player has a set of cards that make one deck and depending on that deck, they will have those cards in random order in battle.Each character needs specific amount of elixir to be spawned on battlefield.

Game last’s 3 minutes, but when it reaches 1 minute, amount of elixir doubles so players have higher chance of destroying enemy crown tower withing those 3 minutes.Player who destroys more crown towers in that given time wins, but if both players have same amount of destroyed crown towers, game will be extended and next player to destroy crown tower wins but if they dont, game will end with a draw, but if none of the crown towers were destroyed in those first 3 minutes, game will end with a draw without chance of over-time.

If player wins a game, he will be rewarded with a chest (silver or gold) and it would take a specific time to open it (3 hours for silver and 8 for gold).Maximum amount of chest is 4, you will be rewarded with more after you free a slot.You can also use Gems to speed up opening of chest.Also players are given free chest every 4 hours.

   

Players receive cards from chest and more valuable chest, higher chance you will get better card(Common, rare, epic and legendary).Collecting specific amount of cards alows its upgrade and you are given XP (amount of xp depends on amount of money you spend,50 gold-6 xp, 150-10 xp, 400-25 etc.)

But chest’s are not only way for a player to get cards, there is also a Shop where u can buy cards that change every 24 hours, you have one Common, one Rare, and one Epic card.More cards you buy the more expensive they get.

There is also a “Tv Royale”, place where you can watch some of the best matches played in “Legendary Arena”.You can see each card in action, look at people’s tactics, deck and learn from their gameplay. After you install game you will have to pass a tutorial of 7 stages in order to get familiar with game and after that you will join “Arena 1”.After you play some maches you will gain Trophies (if you win, you get 30 for winning and lose an amount of trophies depending on arena you are in(higher arena more you lose for losing)).

To unlock next arena you have to reach a specific amount of trophies, for Arena 2 its 400+,Arena 3 800+, Arena 4 1100+, Arena 5 1400+, Arena 6 1700+, Arena 7 2000+, Arena 8 more known as “Legendary Arena” 3000+ trophies.

   

You can unlock achievements for completing specific task, for example for joining a clan you get rewarded with 100 gems and 10 xp etc. If you join a clan you can request cards u need so other players in clan who have few extra cards can give it to you or you can be the one donating and for that you will unlock achievement.
