Our opinion on Minecraft

Sorry that no one posted anything about the Minecraft Official release. Well, here it is, we've only been out for about a year now, so we said stuff about Minecraft since Feburary of this year. We continued to say things about Minecraft, me posting lots of things about it. In the month of July, I posted Minecraft Traps for everyday, and currently I'm making a city to show off to you, the viewers. Overall, I have posted the most about Minecraft, I never really stood there and valued it. Yes Fiftybottles posted things that were cool, like a cavestory texture, Minecraft movie, Minecraft videos and stuff no one really cared about. He just improved the Minecraft appearance. Sad face.

I on the other hand will take requests for what you want to see about Minecraft. I will mold Minecraft into whatever, and make this a Minecraft experience. Minecraft is about observing natural structures on you computer and not in real life, it's about bragging about awesome generating bugs, building huge things because you have no life, and just having fun with mods. Sad face.

In short, Minecraft is awesome juice straight from a semi awesome fruit. Half the awesomeness is from what you make of it. Whether you build or mod, Minecraft is what you make of it. This is not Null Review's official review of Minecraft but it is close. Sad face.

Voxatron Review

Ohmigod, it's Fiftybottles! (resounding applause) Thank you, thank you. As you obviously noticed, that whole "Freebies and Betas" died a loooong time ago. But anyways, I'm back, and I'm here with another review. It's a bit shorter this time, but let's hope you still enjoy it!

Voxatron was released originally with the "Humble Voxatron Debut", a day before Halloween. It's obviously over now, but I managed to pick it up (on the last day, no less) and I figured, hey, why the hell not? Let's review this mother!

Voxatron is an old-school shoot-em-up with a twist. Sure, you're still blasting away at hordes of demons, monsters, and giant pigs with fists that could break Chuck Norris, but the entire game is made of voxels. Don't know what voxels are? Ever heard of Minecraft? Then you know what voxels are. They are essentially 3D pixels. Minecraft uses a completely voxel-based engine (which is how it achieves the whole "block-building" effect), albeit on a much larger scale than "Voxatron". A.K.A. The voxels in this game are much smaller. This means that you can run around, blasting tiny chunks away from buildings with your pea-shooter, and watching them collapse in a pile of rubble before your very feet and eyes! It's immensely satisfying to shoot the stilts off of a cage containing hundreds of little monsters, and watch them pour out of the remains to tear your face off. There are really no limits to what a voxel-based engine can do, and there's really no better showcase for that than this game.

Voxatron comes with a 27-room sample level, labelled "Adventure Mode". It's very fun to play through, and shows you just what can be achieved in the impressive engine that Lexaloffle has crafted. The real bulk of the game, however, comes from the "BBS Levels" game mode. Every single user-created level is stored in here, an you can play them at your will, save them to your favourites, browse character models, filter which levels you want... it's just great. There's already a tremendous community in this game, with already 441 user-made levels having been uploaded to the BBS (one of which is mine. "Onslaught Arena", look 'er up on the BBS!). That's pretty incredibly considering how long the game has been out.

Voxatron comes with a tremendous, easy-to-learn level editor that will have you blasting baddies in your own stages within no time at all. It's a bit clunky, and I wish there were some more options, but with the promised updates and the sheer amount of customization options, this part of the game is an absolute blast. Design your own dungeon, then litter it with items and power-ups to slay the evil army of tear droplets that approach from the hallway in front of you. Trap the player in a cage and force him to shoot his way out into a post-apocalyptic mad-world that wants nothing more than to see you dead. The possibilities are endless, and you really have the ability to flex your creative muscles and let your talents shine.

In conclusion, Voxatron is an awesome game that is definitely worth the current asking price of $15. Hell, if this game was $30 it would still be an incredible buy. Without hesitation, you should head on over to the website and download this sucker A.S.A.P.!

Voxatron gets 88 "Swords of Fortune" out of 100.

Super Mario 3D Land




SUPER MARIO 3D LAND


Hello peeps. So... a few weeks back I got Super Mario 3D Land, and I must say it is my favourite game of 2011 so far. And we still have December left. So, the bottom line is, that if you have a 3DS and $40, you need this game. You actually NEED it. This game has AMAZING graphics, keeping you in constant awe. The other great thing about SM3DL, is that it is an amazing blend of SMG/SMG2 and SMB3/NSMB. There is that sense of nostalgia you get when you first see the Tanooki Leaf, or when you hear the familiar underground theme, and the sense of adventure when you grab a Boomerang Flower.

Graphics - 100%
Playability - 100%
Music - 100%
StreetPass - 100%
Throwback Factor - 100%

OVERALL - 100%










I should probably do my Business homework now...

If I told you that you looked stupid not visiting this blog, would you believe me?

Hey guys, I'm back, and in case you are wondering who I am, I am 16 Bit, but now I am Captain Picard. Don't know who Captain Picard is? Go watch Star Trek: The Next Generation, you'll find out.

...Anyhow, since we are all busy with school, (I think) the amount of posts has almost completely flat lined, and we hope to solve that...

Because I got Super Mario 3D Land.

Now you will bask in the glory of my epicosity, and you will also wait until whenever-the-hell-I-feel-like-it for a review.

Minecraft City

I have lots of time on my hands on certain days so I thought about installing Single Player Commands mod and builtng a city. I have an emergency response team ready and I built their headquarters. Here's a look at the main lobby and counter.
This is the detective's office. He has the best name
This is Detective Poopenstanky Mcpolicemanson's office
This is the doctor's office
The patients go on the bed, put their stuff in the chest and eat cake for instant health.
This is the emergency team sleeping place, bunk beds for space.
The top of the emergency tower, it is a lookout over the city. In the corner is netherrack, light it in emergency like a creeper take over.
