Who knew a zombie invasion could look so cute? Basingstoke, from the minds behind Revenge of the Titans, launches today.
The indomitable town of Basingstoke has been dominated after all, thanks to a neutron bomb and an alien invasion. Its spirit is alive and well, though, thanks primarily to being the kind of place where you’d have to squint a bit and maybe compare before and after pictures to spot the post-apocalyptic changes.
Puppygames went on a bit of a diatribe back in August when it looked like financial armageddon was headed their way, and while it was a good rant, it was also backed up by a plan to not die penniless in a ditch.
Sandbox Mode is the first DLC released recently and that allows players to create their own game, choosing your opponents and choose your weapons and technology with the online editor. Add to mission briefings for their levels to create customized campaigns and then publish their levels and online campaigns. An excellent game thus gains virtually unlimited content provided players support the game. The tools allow a good level of customization, however there really is not much new content. The mechanics are still the same and Sandbox Mode should be part of the original game and not be a DLC. The fact that it is necessary to purchase a DLC levels is to create a little difficult to understand and makes the number of available online campaigns created by players can be much more limited than it could be.
