If you understand french, i'm doing a "kind of" Let's Play. Not a full game, just some parts from time to time.

This is the playlist with 3 episodes so far. Team at level 1 (start), at level 2, at level 12 :

I'm now at level 16 i think, and still enjoy the game a lot.

Thanks... Hm, i still don't get it... I should read some official help or find something so i can understand...

All i manage to get, is to have the launcher with Freedom1 or Freedom2, but not the Ashes game.

(edit : alright, it works now, the issue was my side, located somewhere in my brain).

Hi !

Not sure how to play that.

I did have gzdoom with Freedom Phase 1 and Freedom Phase 2 installed on my PC.
I open the directory, and copy/paste the files, so it's like this :

/home/USER/.config/gzdoom/freedoom1.wad
/home/USER/.config/gzdoom/freedoom2.wad
...

When i launch gzdoom, a small launcher asks me if i want Freedom1 or Freedom2, then i'm ingame.

With Ashes it's like this :

/home/USER/.config/gzdoom/Ashes2063Mod.pk3
/home/USER/.config/gzdoom/Ashes2063Maps.wad

and the launcher only asks about Freedom 1 and Freedom 2.

What did i miss ?

On my 4-5 years old computer, it runs good enough on "Medium". It's turn based, so it's not a big issue if the frame rate is not over the top.

I'm not totally liking the game's visuals to be honest, but i'm playing it since summer 2017 and i like it enough.

The game itself is very nice, and has really well evolved during this time, based on feedbacks and developer's vision (i mean they listened to players, without breaking their own will, and i think it's good).

I know its name, but i never really wanted to try it. Not sure i want more now, but it's good to have some more vision about what it is for.

Space sim 'Helium Rain' to leave Early Access next month, along with a major update now available

There is no story, it's a open sandbox.

QuoteI understand the feeling, though we also added things that weren't promised, based on what we thought our players wanted the most. Let me explain how this happened.

We actually started development on the story, but it had to be shelved to make progress on huge economy changes that were badly needed. We thought a stable economy with better contracts would have more value to the game than the minimal storyline we had in mind.

We're a small team with limited resources, and completing Helium Rain has been a very long project - the first designs are basically five years old now. I wish we could make everyone happy.

I've spend about 10 great hours when it was first released in Early Access, now waiting for the full experience to restart. It's a nice game, beautiful, smooth, and a totally good replacement for X-Universe games (very much similar gameplay, but differently done, and different scale).
