Along with a poignant storyline, visually captivating environments, and compelling characters, Doublehit Studios’ Eternal Hope also has ghastly ghouls aplenty! Today, the developers are taking a deep look into the Shadow World, revealing more about the mysterious and haunting creatures that dwell in the murky realm.
The An’mu are the ghostly inhabitants of the Shadow World, and while all of them seem menacing at first glance, that’s hardly the case! In the video, the developers detail these creatures and their role in the protagonist Ti’bi’s love-fueled journey through dimensions.
Watch Eternal Hope’s ‘Ghouls of the Shadow World’ trailer here:
While the presence of a mask on a stranger may invoke feelings of distrust and uncertainty, the exact opposite can be said of the An’mu. While wearing their protective masks, the An’mu demonstrate that they are friendly allies willing to help Ti’bi on his journey. Through complex puzzles and hazardous situations masked An’mu can be used to make a quick escape or progress through a level otherwise inaccessible to Ti’bi. On the other hand, an unmasked An’mu should be avoided at all costs — their exposed appearance means that their souls have been corrupted and they will viciously attack Ti’bi given the chance.
When encountering an unmasked An’mu, there is no chance of talking things out. Ti’bi has to decide whether he will run for safety or risk his life!
Eternal Hope is a visually captivating puzzle-platformer inspired by the artistic stylings of Studio Ghibli. Giving new meaning “life after death”, players take on the role of Ti’bi, a young, grief-stricken boy haunted by the untimely death of his beloved girlfriend. Ti’bi will venture far beyond the world as we know it in order to be reunited with his soul mate, and he’ll meet plenty of helpful and equally malevolent characters along the way. With the ability to travel between the real world a purgatory-like realm called the Shadow World, Ti’bi will uncover secrets about life, death, and the peculiar space in between.
Developed and published by Doublehit Studios, Eternal Hope will launch on Windows PC via Steam on August 6, 2020, with an Xbox One release coming later this year. To learn more, visit the official site: https://www.eternalhopegame.com.

Experience the Rush and Fervor of Short-Burst, Highly Tactical, Paintball-Inspired Combat With None of the Mess on HTC VIVE and Oculus Rift
NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE — Grab the squad, brush up on your tactical maneuvers, and prepare to storm the enemy bunkers, as independent game developers Giant Scam Industries, announced today their VR arena shooter, Snapshot VR, is set to launch in Early Access this August on Viveport and Steam. Snapshot VR brings the incredibly fast-paced and intense tactical gameplay of real-life professional paintball into a futuristic virtual arena shooter with team-based matches of up to five players per side. With an average of only 45 seconds to dominate the other team, quick thinking, solid planning, and flawless teamwork are requisite ingredients for cooking up a victory stew.
The game’s title comes from the paintball term Snap Shooting, which is a fundamental skill based around firing quickly and accurately from behind cover. Snapshot VR aims to take this idea in the virtual realm, providing an almost true-to-life experience of competing in a high-level professional environment with all of the thrill and skill but none of the messy cleanup or painful bruising. When the buzzer sounds, each team has only a few seconds to scramble into position and begin holding down key-firing lanes. Teamwork and communication combined with battlefield awareness and the ability to quickly adapt to the opponent’s moves — calling out specific bunkers and directing teammates — are essential skills to snatching the win and getting the glory!
Watch the Snapshot VR Announcement trailer here:
“We are super excited for players to play Snapshot VR and experience what we’ve been working so hard on,” said Jesse Keogh, Founder and Lead Engineer at Giant Scam (with a decade of experience in competitive paintball as both a player and coach). “We wanted to make a game that truly feels like playing paintball — fast-paced rounds, one-shot kills, rapid-fire projectiles, no respawns — but isn’t subject to some of the limitations of the real-life sport.”
Snapshot VR features official National Xball League (NXL) maps and allows players to create their own custom maps using 2D Paintball’s Field Creator to design a two-dimensional map that they can then export to Snapshot VR. Choose a layout using a standard grid and then pick from a wide variety of bunker shapes — including cans, pylons, cakes, snakes, and more — that can be swapped on-the-fly prior to a match. Real-time data tracking offers in-depth analytics that shows everything from where players scored an elimination to which bunkers were most effective, and more, allowing for effective post-game analysis and strategy development. The rounds may be short, but, Snapshot VR promises a deep and rewarding tactical experience. Add to that cross-platform player profiles, skill-based leveling, matchmaking, and leaderboards and you’ve got a robust and complete competitive shooter experience!
Key Features of Snapshot VR:
Inspired by Professional Paintball: Snapshot VR brings the blistering speed, battlefield tactics, and intense, team-based combat of the real thing into a virtual arena with maps and gameplay inspired by real-life tournaments—with a hefty dose of neo-futurism!
Planning and Communication Ensure Victory: With only a short window to plan and execute, communication, teamwork, and adaptation are the keys to victory
One shot, One kill: No respawns, no armor, no airstrikes. In competitive play with teams of up to five, eliminate the other team or hit their buzzer to win the round, win 5 rounds to claim the match
Stats for Days: Competitive sports are nothing without analytics, and Snapshot VR features deep stat-tracking and heat maps that allow for thorough post-match analysis and strategic planning
Move How You Want to Move: Three different VR locomotive options allow you to move your avatar effectively in a manner that suits your preferred style
Looking Cool IS Important: With customizable avatars and a bevy of cosmetic options, you can make your virtual competitor look as badass as you feel when nailing your opponent in the face from across the field
Snapshot VR will be available in Early Access for Windows PC via Steam and Viveport this August. The game will support the Oculus Rift, Oculus Rift S, HTC Vive, HTC Vive Pro, Vive Cosmos, and Vive Cosmos Elite, Windows Mixed Reality, and Valve index with support for additional VR devices at full launch. Additional features and content will be released throughout Early Access.
To keep up to date with all the latest news about Snapshot VR make sure to follow the game on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and the official website: http://snapshotvr.com. Join the growing community and engage with the team on the official Snapshot VR Discord.

Up and down are all relative in this mind-bending adventure!

NEW LG SOUND BAR DELIVERS ELEVATED SOUND, PAIRS PERFECTLY WITH GX GALLERY OLED TVS
Pleasing to both ears and eyes, GX sound bar features super-slim, flush-to-wall design and advanced audio technologies with Dolby Atmos
SEOUL, July 8, 2020 — LG Electronics (LG) today announced the company’s newest sound bar designed to create an exceptional home entertainment experience and a heightened level of spatial and stylistic integration with the company’s premium OLED TVs. The LG GX sound bar boasts excellent sound, advanced features and sophisticated aesthetics designed to complement the company’s award-winning GX Gallery OLED series TVs.1
The GX sound bar is the perfect visual companion to the artistically inspired LG Gallery series OLED TVs. Offering consumers design flexibility, the sound bar can be mounted either flush to the wall directly under the TV or supported using the included steel stand. Measuring 15H x 144.6W x 3.25D cm, the GX sound bar is identical in width and finish to the LG 65-inch GX Gallery series TV. At the core of the LG gallery design is the philosophy of a complete home entertainment system that can fit harmoniously within a given space – a concept the company’s designers refer to as “adding spatial value.”
LG GX sound bar delivers superior sound thanks to Dolby Atmos and DTX:S for remarkable three-dimensional sound. The speaker is Dolby Vision compatible via 4K pass-through, enabling stunning picture and sound quality for truly cinematic home viewing. The included subwoofer connects wirelessly to the sound bar to distribute low-frequency bass from anywhere in the room, and with the addition of an LG wireless rear speaker kit (model SPK8, sold separately) even more powerful audio can be delivered with a greater sense of immersion.
Furthermore, the sound bar delivers upgraded user convenience and easy connectivity options including enhanced audio return channel (eARC) and Bluetooth. With higher bandwidth, eARC provides the benefits of rich, high-resolution audio formats such as Dolby True HD and DTS Master Audio, while Bluetooth facilitates effortless, high-quality streaming from a smartphone or tablet.
What’s more? The LG GX soundbar is Hi-Res Audio certified, offering lossless playback at 24bit/96kHz with greater vibrancy and nuance. This produces detailed, natural sound when playing high-resolution audio files or when up-converting conventional audio formats. The built-in LG AI Sound Pro feature analyses and automatically applies the best sound settings regardless of the content, ensuring maximum listening enjoyment every time.
The new LG GX soundbar will roll out starting this month in Europe, North America, Asia as well as other key markets. Availability, pricing and specification for Australia has yet to be determined. More information will be provided as it becomes available.
