Believe it or not, this is not a filler comic, I actually generated this
one today. Fascinating, I know. It's based on a dream I had, and a line
I thought of. Which goes where, I'll leave a mystery.
I got the game Velocity from the PlayStation Store. It's a
top-down space ship flyin' around game with music by the guy who did the
scores from Killzone 2 and 3. It's pretty damn interesting, mostly
because it's pretty damn complicated to control despite it's simplistic
layout. It kinda reminds me of Guitar Hero in the way that you have to
coordinate your movements properly and how one little trip up can destroy
your entire flow, even if you don't have the level memorized. The hardest
part is teleporting. You have to hold Square and move the reticule to
where you want to reappear, but you have to do it quickly. In most cases
you can get a rhythm down pretty good but if you don't slow down for
awkward jumps it'll fuck you over pretty good. I'd say for a new spin on
an old style arcade game, it's worth at least checking out the
trailers.
