  • Rated-R – Siriusly, People, Get Online! (075)

    This week we sat down to nerd out with the team behind Sirius Online, Digital Dawn Studios, and spent waaaay too much time! Because of this, there’s no news or anything else but the interview!

     

    Special Guests: Dex and Cayne from Sirius Online!

    Dex is the developer behind Sirius Online, and brought along the Community Manager Cayne to talk about the game. The latest major update, version 1.2, brought a lot up of improvements, and many more are in the pipeline – we got to talk about what these are and what to expect from future updates including the version 1.2.1 that’s right around the corner.

     

    Sirius Online is an online space-sim set in a single solar-system, inspired by Freelancer, as well as the X games (X through X3) and EVE:Online.

     

    Of course this week’s episode, along with some gameplay footage, is available on YouTube!

                    Special Guest: Tyler Owen, Random Seed Games

                    At first glance it might look like Yet-Another-Space-Survival game, but Random Seed Games’ Lacuna Passage fills a slightly different game, requiring the player to survive (and learn what happened) using only in-situ resources and existing infrastructure – no Minecrafting a space-castle with rockets, but instead scrounging for parts to keep equipment working while you investigate what happened to the previous crew in an Open World based on actual scans of Mars.

                    Of course we cannot talk Mars without also nerding out, and Tyler definitely brings it!

                    Lacuna Passage is available in Early Access on Steam right now.

                     

                    This week’s episode is also available on YouTube, along with a bit of Lacuna Passage gameplay, and some SwordCoast Legends gameplay, just press here.
