‘The Blackout Club’ Receives New Content, Fixes in Latest Update
Question Games’ The Blackout Club (which Thomas and Jim have previewed) has just received a second content update, announced on its Steam page. The update includes a whack of goodies, including new areas and quests, as well as new gameplay options and bugfixes.
“This update marks the first of our new update schedule, which should come about every two weeks moving forward,” says the devs. “The focus on this update was getting some new content in the game while continuing to fix bugs and start to address feedback and balance issues.”
Among the new content is an addition to the cryptogram mission that includes an extra challenge for higher level players (and rewards more XP as a result), a new threat in the form of the Acoustic Mine, tweaks to gameplay, uncapped framerate, the ability to host Friends-only or public games, as well as the ability to kick players. As Jim and Thomas have both said, this could potentially be a great co-op game once issues are ironed out, so do check it out if you’re interested.
The Blackout Club was released on October 30th for Steam Early Access.
While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.
This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.
You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!
In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?
“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.
“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”
Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
