Join Ayo in his perilous quest to find his lost dog

New Jersey, USA – July 28th, 2021 – Indie game studio Cloud M1 is happy to announce its 2.5D clown-themed platformer Ayo the Clown has now launched on Nintendo Switch and Steam for PC. With a brand new trailer, Ayo the Clown is ready to set off on a quirky, family-friendly adventure in the quest to find his precious dog, and make some friends along the way. Be prepared for the wacky sights, crazy conundrums and fiendish foes that Ayo will discover as he embarks on his fun-filled adventure. 

“Ayo won’t stop at anything in order to rescue his beloved pooch and as a result is a very well traveled clown. The World of Ayo is a weird but wonderful place filled with more things to see and do than you can shake a balloon stick at!,” said Xiu Liang, Cloud M1 Game Director. “Ayo the Clown is finally here and we can’t wait for players to join in on the fun.”

On this incredible adventure you play as Ayo, your not-so-average clown, in search of his best friend and beloved dog, Bo, who has mysteriously disappeared. This journey will take Ayo across eight regions from the lush Hills, to the wacky Water World and all the way to sickeningly sweet Candy Land in search of clues to Bo’s whereabouts. This world is full of friendly people and interesting creatures that are willing to lend a helping hand but beware of the fiendish foes who are out to cause you harm. Pick up a water balloon, balloon sword, toy hammer, dinosaur, helicopter, tank, everything a healthy clown needs to survive in the great outdoors. Since Ayo is not the kind of clown to make the same joke over and over again, you’ll travel across many uniquely themed platforms and come into contact with larger than life bosses and hordes of enemies that will prove that this clown is much tougher than he seems.

Runners up from last years’ ultimate 2v2 CS:GO tournament, Dead Weight, have this year leveled up to take the gong, as teams battled it out to find the best Counter-Strike: Global Offensive duos
in Australia for Red Bull Flick 2021.

Australia, July 28. Determined to level up from their 2020 runner up position, Dead Weight have this year claimed victory in the Red Bull Flick 2021 Australian finals.

For the second year running, grassroots competition Red Bull Flick, gave amatuer Australian players the opportunity to get their wings – while playing against some of the nation’s best pro players in custom CS:GO 2v2 maps with a futuristic twist.  

Pairs of players faced off in a set of brand new custom Red Bull maps specifically designed for new game mode, Hold the Flag, alongside a new narrative for players to immerse themselves in a sci-fi setting. The 2021 competition featured capture points, with each duo fighting for control with themed maps and content incorporated into the Red Bull event.

The Australian online qualifiers kicked off on June 26 and 27, July 3 and 4. There were more than 550 registrations for the competition, with 16 duos (four from each qualifier) competing in the final qualifying round to determine which eight teams would make it to the national finals. The top eight teams then battled it out in the national final on July 10, with more than 7,800 viewers tuning in across the tournament, with duos Dead Weight and Steam Support making it to the final round.

Dead Weight, made up of Mr Sharky and Velocity (Velo), were no strangers to the series having almost secured the victory last year in a down-to-the-wire finals match against eventual 2020 champions Dynamic Du-Woah. After learning from the experience and focusing on leveling up their game, this year Dead Weight brought with them confidence in spades.

“Our expectation for this year’s Flick experience was no lower than top two, and we were very confident that we could win it out this year in the Grand Final as we wouldn’t have to worry about our nerves this time around,” says Velocity. “We did a lot of practice and scrims prior to joining the tournament so we were confident we would be a favourite to win.”

However, there were a few bumps in the road to victory.

“We came into the tournament as first seed and didn’t drop a single round,” says Velocity. “But unfortunately for us, we ended up versing Steam Support on the only map that we didn’t have any experience on as we thought it was a very straightforward map. After we lost to them and went into the lower bracket we were confident that we would verse them in the Grand Final and come out victorious as the maps for the grand final we were very well versed on.”

Sydney, Australia – 28^th July 2021: The battle for Troy cannot be waged by man alone.

Create your own odyssey and embark on one of three new expeditions to track, fight and tame legendary beasts and unleash them upon your enemies: the Cerberus – a vicious hound of Hades that guards the abyss, the Griffin – a deadly master of the skies, and the Hydra – a nine-headed serpent spreading poison and madness.  

Spill blood in epic theatres of war whilst commanding renowned heroes of the age alongside devastating mythical warriors.

Microsoft Flight Simulator Available Today on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox Game Pass

by Jorg Neumann, Head of Microsoft Flight Simulator

In a pivotal moment for the flight simmer community, today we are bringing Microsoft Flight Simulator to Xbox Series X|S giving aspiring pilots the chance to take flight for the first time on a console.

From light planes to wide-body jets, you’ll test your piloting skills against the challenges of real-time weather including accurate wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, rain, and lightning – all in a dynamic and living world. With the power of satellite data from Bing Maps and cloud-based AI using Azure, you’ll travel the entire planet in amazing detail with over 37 thousand airports, 2 million cities, 1.5 billion buildings, real mountain ranges, roads, trees, rivers, animals, traffic, and more. Simmers can expect the same level of depth as the PC version, with the most authentic and realistic flight simulator we have ever created and available to the widest audience ever.

Optimized to harness the power of Xbox Series X|S, Microsoft Flight Simulator brings realism, accuracy, and authenticity of flying. Even if you’re a new pilot, you can jump right in to experience the thrill of flight. Microsoft Flight Simulator on Xbox Series X|S adds new features to make the experience highly accessible:

Discovery Flights: Newcomers can easily enter the world of Microsoft Flight Simulator and experience some of the most impressive wonders of our planet, including awe-inspiring locations like the Great Pyramid of Giza and Mount Everest, or vibrant cities like Naples and Rio de Janeiro. Start in the air and off you go.

World Exploration Improvements: Many users love to explore the planet in Microsoft Flight Simulator, and we’ve further enhanced that experience. The world map now features satellite imagery, map labels, and main Point of Interest (POI) names to make exploring the world (and even finding your house) as easy as possible. We extended this capability into the flight experience itself and users can now activate the POI labels during a flight, so they can get a sense for the spatial relationships between cities, mountains, and other landmarks.

Flight Training: We significantly improved our flight training to ensure a smoother learning curve and make them more snack-sized and by adding a new performance evaluation system. We now have 22 training flights that teach users the fundamentals of flying starting with basic handling, to landing and takeoff, VFR navigation and learning how to fly an airliner like the Airbus 320neo. We also added more contextual voiceovers to help explain elements and provide feedback.

Flight Assistance: We are introducing an extremely useful new tool called the Flight Assistant that provides AI help during flight:   

• You can select nearby POIs or airports and set them as your destination to get direction.
• You can use it to let the AI auto land your plane.
• You can use it for auto-trimming and anti-stall.

Land Anywhere: In most flight simulators, take off and landing at an airport can be complex and intimidating for newcomers. 71% of our planet is water, so we added water landing options. We revamped several of our planes and incorporated optional floaters, skis and a “large tires” feature so you can land almost anywhere.

Microsoft Flight Simulator on Xbox Series X|S is the most accessible entry to date with the addition of Screen Narrator and new features such as Discovery Flights, all new scored training flights, enhanced landing gear and more so new pilots can jump right into experiencing the thrill of flight!

Launching Microsoft Flight Simulator on PC last year was only the beginning of our journey to make the best simulation possible. As we continue adding to the experience with free World Updates (Japan, US, France, Benelux, UK & Ireland and the Nordics so far with many more to come), free simulation updates, themed DLC bundles, and true-to-life aircraft, Xbox Series X|S simmers will enjoy these updates on console as well. The sky is calling!

Microsoft Flight Simulator is now available on Xbox Series X|S with Xbox Game Pass, Windows 10 with Xbox Game Pass for PC, and Steam. 

For the latest information on Microsoft Flight Simulator, stay tuned to @MSFSOfficial on Twitter.

Become a Heavy Metal Legend in God of Riffs Today on Steam Early Access for Oculus Rift and Quest

Perth, Australia — July 27, 2021 — God of Riffs, the rhythmic heavy metal slasher from publisher VYERSOFT and developer Boss Music Games, headbangs and bangs heads on Steam Early Access today with support for HTC Vive, Valve Index, and Oculus Rift Headsets including Oculus Rift, Rift S, and Quest.

The gods of metal demand the corpses of demons, skeletons, and other hellspawn. Give them what they want—take up twin battle axes and cut down the armies of the dead to the rhythm of four original over-the-top tracks. Bash skulls as wailing guitar solos and thunderous drumlines fill the soundscape in environments inspired by ‘80s-’90s heavy metal aesthetics.

Simply bopping along to the beat alone shan’t impress the gods. Every swing through fiendish flesh earns points based on accuracy and ferocity. Shred strings and faces with each quick and deadly strike, climbing the stairway to leaderboard heaven. 

While the ascent for metal godhood demands mastery, two difficulty settings available at launch and several accessibility options encourage even the rhythmically-disinclined to play. Practice the basics, crank the difficulty to 11, or simply come for the demon-slaying—God of Riffs aims tomake anyone feel like a flame-spitting, fury-wielding, all-powerful slayer. An original campaign mode, boss battles like frost giants and towering trolls, and indie metal tracks from across the globe will light the way to 1.0 release.

“Steam Early Access is just a taste of what’s to come for God of Riffs,” said Mathew Palumbo, Company Director at Boss Music Games. “Our focus right now is making sure anyone can pick up the axes and feel like a god, no matter their skill level. We’ve got more songs and features lined up for 1.0, and Early Access is a chance for us to hear from players and make sure we’re honoring the legacy of metal with every slash.”

God of Riffs is available now on Steam Early Access with support for HTC Vive, Valve Index, and Oculus Rift Headsets for $4.99. For more information, please visit the official website and Facebook page. Follow Vyersoft on Twitter, Boss Music Games on Twitter and Instagram.

About Boss Music Games

Boss Music Games is a group of crazy blokes that had the totally reasonable idea of starting an indie dev studio. Straight out of school…with limited funds…during a pandemic…from a city no one has heard of (Perth, by the way!). But through the power of persistence and the spirit of metal, they plan to rock the world with their VR projects.

Dovetail Games, developer and publisher of authentic sports simulation titles, today revealed the 10 playable professional anglers coming to Bassmaster® Fishing 2022, the Official Game of B.A.S.S.®. Players will be able to experience the thrill of Big Bass Fishing when Bassmaster® Fishing 2022 launches in North America and Europe this fall on the PlayStation®5, PlayStation 4 home computer entertainment system, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One family of devices including the Xbox One X, and windows PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store.

With authenticity being at the core of Bassmaster® Fishing 2022 the development team has spent considerable effort in bringing the real-life anglers to the virtual world, accurately recreating them with in-game models capturing everything including their hair, facial features, and body shape. And just like in real life, each of the playable anglers will have access to a selection of equipment from real-world sponsors for maximum immersion. In addition to the roster of professional anglers, players can create their own custom angler to challenge the pros in the hopes of becoming the next Bassmaster Classic Champion!

The full lineup of Bassmaster anglers includes: 

• Scott R. Martin: From Clewiston, Florida, Scott R. Martin brings his highly successful brand of bass fishing to the Bassmaster Series. Scott is a seven-time FLW Tour Champion and a two-time Gold Medal Winner, don’t overlook Scott. 

• Hank Cherry: Joining the team from Lincolnton, North Carolina, is the two-time back-to-back Bassmaster Classic Champion, Hank Cherry. 

• Carl Jocumsen: The first ever Australian angler to qualify for the Bassmaster Elite Series, Carl Jocumsen joins the Bassmaster® Fishing 2022 pro angler team. 

• John Crews: A Bassmaster Series veteran, John Crews from Salem, Virginia joins the team. With over 200 Bassmaster tournaments under his belt, John is a force to be reckoned with.

• Scott Canterbury: 2019 Angler of the year winner from Odenville, Alabama: Scott Canterbury. Scott’s experience in Bassmaster makes him a great pro to play as in Bassmaster® Fishing 2022. 

• Stetson Blaylock: Stetson Blaylock from Benton, Arkansas joins the Bassmaster® Fishing 2022 pro line up. With an Elite Series win on his record, Stetson is not to be messed with on the water.

• Takumi Ito: Recent winner of the 2021 St. Lawrence River Event from Chiba, Japan: Takumi Ito. If Takumi’s enthusiasm doesn’t make him a top pick, then his stats surely will.

• Jeff Gustafson: From Keewatin, Canada, and a 2021 Elite Series winner on the Tennessee River, we have Jeff Gustafson who joins the Bassmaster® Fishing 2022 team. 

• Buddy Gross: From Chickamauga, Georgia, one of the in-game venues, Buddy Gross is a playable angler. Consider Buddy when picking a pro angler and see if home advantage comes into play when fishing Lake Chickamauga!

This landlord simulator is getting better every day! Its developers just launched an update that introduces new and exciting features that will change your gameplay forever.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – July 27th, Cracow, Poland.

The Tenants just got its Tenancy update, which might be a gamebreaker! This first major patch has been in the works for quite a while, and it introduces plenty of new content and several massive features that address the biggest shortcomings of the current gameplay loop. 

The patch comes with new tenant archetypes: Wondersville folks have taken the time to expand their horizons, and now you’ll be able to meet and house Artists who enjoy units designed with a bit more pizzazz than usual. Try to meet their demands, and you might make some money off them too! This update also introduces many new Elite Contracts and dozens of new furniture items. You might especially enjoy the set of contracts that involve designing a wedding reception space and the interior of a chapel for the ceremony.

The changes include:

●    New tenant interactions
●    Mid-tenancy renovation requests
●    New Skill Tree
●    Tutorial changes
●    New Creative mode
●    Minor optimization

If you are fond of games that require planning and problem-solving skills, you’ll be excited about The Tenants. Acquire apartments and then rent them out. Face problematic tenants and resolve their issues as quickly as possible – you never know what will happen next! One minute you’re taking care of broken TVs and plenty of other issues to make sure everyone is content with their apartments, and the next, you’re stumbling in on loud parties that you need to shut down before someone calls the police. Oh, and don’t think that everyone will pay you on time – not a chance!

More information about the game can be found on Steam.
