Curve Digital's highly anticipated debut title The Ascent will be released on 29 July 2021 on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, and will be available on Xbox Game Pass.
The Ascent is the first title from Neon Giant, a new 12-person studio composed of games industry veterans who were some of the minds behind iconic AAA titles such as the Gears of War, Bulletstorm and Wolfenstein franchises. The game will target 60 fps and have full 4K support on the Xbox Series X, offering amazing gameplay performance for new generation console players.
“We are super excited that people will soon be able to jump into the world of The Ascent,”said Arcade Berg, Creative Director and co-founder of Neon Giant. “We love making games and we do it because we want people to enjoy the experience and world we have created - so we’ve designed a game that lets all players have fun with the element of gameplay that interests them the most. Whether you’re someone who enjoys exploring every corner, loves exciting combat or gets invested in the story and lore, we've tried to put something in The Ascent for everyone.”
Fellow co-founder and Creative Director of the studio Tor Frick added: “A month ago we celebrated Neon Giant’s third anniversary and we’re so happy to be launching our first title just after this milestone for our young studio. We have a very passionate and dedicated team and each person in the studio has brought something new and great to the overall experience of The Ascent, so we’re really excited to share the planet of Veles with everyone and see what people think of the world our team has created.”
The Ascentwill see players dive into ‘The Ascent Group’ arcology, a self-contained corporate-run metropolis, stretching high into the sky and filled with creatures from all over the galaxy. Taking on the role of an indentured worker, the world starts to go haywire when The Ascent Group shuts down for unknown reasons. Life becomes a case of survival, with rival corporations and crime syndicates looking to fill the empty space. Players will have to take up arms and hold them off. The Ascent begins here.

Toy Soldiers HD (@ToySoldiersGame), the overhauled, upgraded, and better-than-ever action and strategy video game developed by Signal Studios and published by Accelerate Games will be digitally available September 9 for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and on Steam.
Originally released in 2010, the new updated version of the hit indie game includes improved single and multiplayer gameplay, never-before played content, enhanced HD graphics (hence the name), improved camera and sound and all previously released DLC.
Like many tower defense games, you strategically build your defenses while plotting your counter offensives. But unlike other tower defense games, Toy Soldiers HD gives you the ability to experience the battle from both top-down perspective and third-person perspective. Watch the action unfold or jump feet first into the boots of an infantryman and race across the battlefield dodging artillery while using a flamethrower to burn your enemies to a crisp. Mount your horse and charge the enemy head on with your cavalry. Pilot bombers and drop shells that pockmark the field below or strafe your opponent using biplanes. Go hands-on howitzers and mow down the enemy.
The original Toy Soldiers remains one of the most beloved and best-selling XBLA titles of all time, selling millions of units. At the 2011 D.I.C.E. award show, the indie game was nominated for best simulation game of the year alongside massively budgeted AAA titles Starcraft 2, Civilization V, Dawn of War II, Supreme Commander II.

Online gaming software developers focus on catering to a wide range of player needs. To serve low rollers best, penny slots are widely provided in gambling destinations with some accommodating high stakes as well for big spenders. These games are provided with free versions as well, which include fun credits that are used in the placement of bets, but pennies are maintained as the unit of credits. Most people describe the gameplay of free penny slots as simple without the requirement of too much thought like in some other casino games. Even so, some steps can be taken when indulging in these games to make the experience worthwhile, a few of which are tabled in this piece.
Understand the Rules of Play
One of the propelling factors for the popularity of slot games is their maintenance of a rigid strategy of gameplay that maintains similar basic rules in nearly all titles. Such simplicity stands as the key reason why the games are placed as the centre of attraction for most casinos since they accommodate both new and seasoned punters.
When playing penny slots, punters are expected to begin with the selection of their desired stake and proceed to spin the reels. The functionality of stake placement might differ from one set to another. For instance, some games may allow the adjustment of the denomination and number of coins used while in others, only one of these variables can be changed.
Assess Stake Limits
Penny slots do not necessarily mean that they let punters spin the reels for a penny per round. Rather, it means that the credit unit used is counted in pennies. Most games come with a minimum stake limit that players have to adhere to, which means that one may have to use as much a dollar per spin. Assess whether the number of coins or bet lines can be changed, which heavily influence the wagers that are used. The wager limit should then be compared to the fun credits provided to see how long they can drag on before depleting.
