Developer @rosecitygames revealed today at the twitchgaming and ID@Xbox Showcase that their turn-based strategy deck-builder, Floppy Knights, will be available simultaneously on Xbox and PC Game Pass in Q2 2022. Meet the Floppy Knights: tangible projections summoned from floppy disks!
Floppy Knights is a deck-building, sword-swinging, tactical adventure, featuring a young inventor and her robot-arm bestie. Embark on an adventure as the brilliant programmer Phoebe and her clever, trusted robot-arm–and her own invention!–Carlton. Experiment with the mighty Floppy Knights, floppy disks turned into tangible projections of plants, monsters, and other collectible battle creatures, before entering the annual Gadget Cup to snag the winner’s cash prize. Help townsfolk in need, earn some quick cash, and get Phoebe’s parents off her case about finding “real” employment by taking on odd jobs around town.
Engage in turn-based tactical combat with a deck filled with Phoebe’s creations, such as Succulent Kickers, skateboarding ghosts, and the fearsome Big Mad. Master main objectives to advance to the next level while completing secondary missions to win BigCoins and craft new cards. Upgrade cards in-battle to empower them with stronger attacks and expand the deck by unlocking new cards at Phoebe’s workshop.
Become a local hero by saving crops from starving Goblin Grunts, rescuing an Ogre trapped at the base of an active volcano, and preventing the postponement of the Science Fair. Craft a deck strong enough to battle no-good Troublemakers, monstrous BeheMoths, and gooey slimes. Face Alex, Phoebe’s archenemy and major copycat, as she tries to shake her down at every turn with her own snarky robot companion Snarlton.
The Last Stand: Aftermath is an all new, premium singleplayer standalone action adventure rogue-lite. Choose a survivor to set forth and explore the ruins of civilization, finding fuel to travel to new locations and gathering supplies to craft weapons and more.
You'll need to stay on your toes, since hordes of zombies still roam the streets, and you're no superhuman. In fact, you're one of the infected yourself, and eventually you'll die, be it from the hostile undead or the virus rampaging through your body. But when that happens, you'll pick up the game again as a new survivor, with perks and upgrades earned based on your progress from the last, and set out to try again.
The Last Stand: Aftermath is available today on Xbox Series X and Series S, PlayStation 4/5, Nintendo Switch and PC.

When a team led by Bryan Sparks, the designer of the Xbox One X, sat down to design the look of the new console, they went back to the iconic monolith from Stanley Kubrick’s Space Odyssey, making Xbox One X symbolic of the technological advancement it was going to feature.
This powerful system provides a medium to run power-intensive games, making it possible for game developers to create more complex and visually striking games than ever before. So what all goes into making a video game for Xbox? Let’s find out.
Xbox games and the science behind it
We’ve come a long way with the application of science in games. While Pac-Man used similar direction mechanics and vectors, video games today have to perfect everything from the physics of water and dust to the viscosity of liquids represented in games. Game developers and their passion pour down into making video games unbelievably close to reality.
Physics and Mathematics - Physics are perhaps the most important concepts to perfect while developing video games. Take Forza Horizon 7, for example, where the car’s steering gets tighter as you increase speed. You can’t turn at 100 mph in a Mercedes SUV but it’s quite possible while driving a Lamborghini Veneno.
Similarly, in games like Red Dead Redemption, we can see how light physics allows developers to create stunning light frames, right from the refraction of light in water to the dimming of the sun rays when you take your horse to snowy mountain peaks.
In shooting games, bullet drop is another aspect that uses physics and mathematics. The distance traveled by the bullet, the direction of the wind, the earth’s gravity - all factors come into play. Sniper Ghost Warrior is the perfect example of this. This level of creation needs students to master their academics using all means and one of them is to ask for science homework help if they lack the skills to study science tasks. Science students must utilize Ca.EduBirdie assignment help to see the difference it can make to their academic career.
Enhanced Graphics - Detailing and graphics have come a long way in both PC and console games. Game studios like Rockstar Games have made significant leaps in graphics, with GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 bringing a supreme level of detail, from the characters’ movement to the refraction of light in water.
The latest Xbox consoles aim to bring the best experience for its users, providing rich detail and smooth frame rates. The constant race between faster screens and equally fast gaming systems keeps the gaming industry pushing the limits of game visuals and user experience.
