Soup Pot Is Coming This August

Written by

Soup Pot by Chikon Club is scheduled to arrive this summer to let players make glorious, yummy food. The single-player cooking title is slated to arrive on Xbox Series X/S and PC in August. So, there are plenty of cooking games out there, what makes Soup Pot different?

Well, it's framed around livestreaming your cooking and checking out those sweet comments on social media. That's right, prepare to be evaluated on your performance in humorous ways, both positive and negative. It's important to state here that there's no emphasis here on perfection, this isn't a game where you're going to be fearing a fail state or a game over screen.You have to show off those sweet dishes, right? As I like to say, if you didn't post your meal on Discord, did you really eat it at all? I don't know. Follow me on Instagram, or something (I haven't posted on there in over a year).

There are over 100 different dishes you can craft in Soup Pot while you try to wow your potential audience on the stream. Are you ready to be ripped apart when you mix waffles and milk together with an egg sauce? Actually... could that work? Are you ready to go viral when you nail the ultimate recipe? These are all likely to happen as you try to amaze your viewers with your cooking prowess. It's not just dumping stuff into the titular pot, either, you'll be able grill, bake, and combine for potent culinary creations. Take a look at the cooking chaos here!

It's not a sterile cooking sim, either. Players are encouraged to get in there and get messy with their mastery, smacking dough around and listening to various quips, squeaks, and squeals as you handle everything in the kitchen. Leave the measuring cup at home and dig in there!

Do you enjoy cooking sims? Are you looking forward to Soup Pot? Check out more on Chikon Club here. Let us know in the comments!

Rust Makes Its Way To Consoles In May

Written by

We knew Rust was making its way to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and now we know that it’s hitting May 21. The news dropped during today’s ID@Xbox indie showcase on Twitch. Double Eleven, who is handling the console ports, announced three versions of the game that players can pre-order now. 

Rust Standard Edition/Rust Day One Physical Edition runs for $49.99 and includes the game and pre-order bonus Future Weapons and Tools pack. 

Rust Deluxe Edition comes with a Welcome Pack that gives players three days of early access, closed beta access, and staging branch access, as well as the Standard Edition’s bonuses. You can pick that up for $59.99. 

Lastly, there’s Rust Ultimate Edition. For $79.99 you’ll get all of the bells and whistles from the other editions, but the Welcome Pack has been upgraded with 1100 Rust Coins and an Elite Combat Skin Pack. 

A closed beta has been running on consoles over the past week. The popular survival game tasks players with staying alive in an inhospitable, open world. Survival depends on building structures, gathering food and other resources. The heart of the experience, though, is interacting with up to 100 human players who occupy the world. Whether you decide to work together to survive or get into firefights over resources (or just because you’re a jerk), the emergent storytelling is one of the best elements of the experience. 

If you haven’t played the console beta and wonder how Rust performs on console, developer Double Eleven released two uncut gameplay videos of the game running on PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. Will you be giving Rust a shot on consoles? Let us know down in the comments!

Drinkbox Studios Announces Nobody Saves The World

Written by

Drinkbox Studios, the developer behind Guacamelee, has unveiled its next game, Nobody Saves The World, scheduled to be released this year on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC. Nobody Saves The World will also be available day one on Xbox Game Pass on both console and PC.

You take the role of Nobody, and, surprise, you’re out to save the world. The title kind of gives it away, doesn’t it? As Nobody, your acquisition of a powerful magic wand lets you change forms before you dive into puzzle-laden dungeons and tackle oodles of quests. There are over 15 different forms in Nobody Saves The World. Oh, and the soundtrack is by Jim Guthrie, who has done seriously great stuff in the sound space including the tunes in Sword and Sworcery. Before we look at anything else, you should probably watch the trailer. It’s right here!

With your forms (classes) and other character customization aspects, you’ll discover different ways to take on the stylish challenges that await you. There's a ranger. There's also, like, a donkey or something? While the trailer below may really drill into your brain that this is another indie roguelike/roguelite, the developer has been keen to relay that it doesn’t really fit into that classification.

Unlocking new forms comes from completing quests, from the obvious ones like beating a dungeon to other varied experiences that you could have as you wander the worlds like spreading cheer or inflicting certain status effects on your foes. Over time, you can even start taking form abilities and sticking them on other forms, creating potent and versatile builds perfect for tackling a wide variety of situations and scenarios.

Of course, as you grow the dungeons may begin to serve up more dangerous challenges as well. That should keep things interesting! What do you think of Nobody Saves The World? Do you like the zany look of things here? Let us know in the comments!

From Crash Bandicoot to the Last of Us and everything in between, Naughty Dog clearly loves to include homages to its past game releases.
