G-Rebels is aiming to revive a type of futuristic flight combat that has been largely absent from modern gaming, combining low-altitude dogfights, an expansive sci-fi setting and a surprisingly broad range of activities. Reakktor Studios’ Early Access release is clearly still a work in progress, but the foundations already suggest an experience with considerable potential, particularly when the Skyblade is being thrown through the crowded skies of its cyberpunk world. The addition of VR support also gives the game another intriguing dimension, although that side of the experience currently comes with some significant caveats.

Aquaparks have long been a staple of summer holidays, but they’ve rarely been the focus of a dedicated management sim. Aquapark Tycoon looks to change that by taking the familiar tycoon formula and applying it to sprawling waterparks filled with twisting slides, relaxing wellness areas and demanding guests. After seeing an early version during Gamescom 2024 and now spending time with the Early Access build on PC, it’s a project that already showcases plenty of ambition, even if it still has some rough edges to smooth out before its full release.

Shiro Games has built a reputation for strategy and management games that reward careful planning, and with SpaceCraft the studio is taking those ideas into a persistent online sci-fi sandbox.

While still very much a work in progress, the current build already showcases an ambitious vision that combines old-school design sensibilities with modern visuals.

Perun Creative’s Kromlech is shaping up to be a deliberate throwback to a very specific era of RPG design – one where systems take precedence over spectacle, and player mastery is something that’s earned rather than granted. Drawing inspiration from early 2000s immersive RPGs while layering in modern rogue-lite sensibilities, it’s a project that wears its ambition openly. Based on its Early Access debut, that ambition is already visible, though not yet fully realized. Continue reading “Kromlech preview (PC)”
