Meet B.O.B – Z.1.0.3 drone

As more information on the eccentric game Hexodius surfaces, Brain Slap Studio decided to release an early gameplay video that highlights the game modes: exploration, build, and action. You can see these game modes in the video below.

It appears that the B.O.B – Z.1.0.3 drone will have some equipment functions in which you can equip four at a time, however, they aquire energy to activate them. What equipment functions will be available during gameplay you might ask? Well, take a look at a data transmission from the developers.

- Incoming transmission -

Let me present to you some of these equipments:

Energy shield : It creates a strong energy field around the drone, it will stop all physical and plasma attacks. However it may be inefficient against special energy fields or lasers.

Holo-turret : This device summons an energy turret, it will shoot at enemies entering its attack range.

Nitro : It gives a serious boost of speed, perfect to dodge enemy attacks.

Proximity mine : Ok, it may not sound original, but this vintage equipment is very useful to set traps to mindless toasters.

Time Paradox : I have to admit that I’m pretty proud about this one, this nasty piece of equipment slows down the time around the drone during a few seconds. Thinking of it, maybe I should check if the use of this device can have some side effects
- End transmission -

Hexodius does not have a confirmed release date or price yet but stay right here on TA for future incoming transmissions from the developers at Brain Slap Studio.

Guess I missed the announcement article, but this looks pretty good. I'm guessing a 1200MSP, and after a trial, I think it may be worth it

Looks fun at first, but unless they change the environments up a lot it could get old fast.

Fun fact: we have a radio station here called Z103.

While I think I'll be getting it on launch day give or take 400 points, there's no way a game with level of polish anda small dev team is going to start off at 1200MSP
iHeartSlampigs - Even with all my progress starting Revelations put a hurting on my goal. I'm going to need to step it up.

This is the first I've seen of this game and I've got to say it looks pretty interesting. Won't be dishing out 1200 points or anything for it but it's still an interesting concept.
