    Printer vs. Aliens: Topdeck Automat Playtest Is Now Live on Steam

    Move over, Master Chief. The new hero of the resistance is… an office printer?

    Developer Ludokultur has officially kicked off the first public Steam playtest for Topdeck Automat, a wildly inventive roguelike auto-battler that asks the question: What if the only thing standing between Earth and total alien annihilation was a fleet of repurposed office appliances?

    If you’ve ever wanted to watch a hacked flyer printer dish out tactical justice against hordes of invaders, your time has come.

    The Premise: Revenge of the Vending Machines

    In a dark (but let’s be honest, mostly hilarious) future, alien forces have seized Earth and dismantled every human weapon. However, they made one fatal mistake: they ignored the “harmless” worker droids.

    You play as a reprogrammed unit—ranging from office assistants to vending machines—marching to take back the planet. It’s a premise that feels like a love letter to Douglas Adams, trading gritty sci-fi tropes for high-octane stationary and snack-based warfare.

    How it Plays: Your Deck Prints Itself

    Topdeck Automat blends the strategic depth of a deckbuilder with the “sit back and see if your plan works” satisfaction of an auto-battler. Here is the core loop:

    The Printing Mechanic: Instead of manually playing cards, your droid “prints” them during combat. The order is randomised, forcing you to build a deck that is efficient regardless of the draw.

    Synergy & Upgrades: With over 200 cards and 100+ stackable modules, the game encourages you to find “broken” builds. Think of it as Balatro meets Brotato—you aren’t just looking for a good hand; you’re looking for an infinite loop of destruction.

    Tactical Weather: Random weather effects (20+ in total) force you to adapt your strategy on the fly, ensuring no two runs feel identical.

    From the Makers of Rack and Slay

    The game comes from the duo behind the “billiards roguelike” hit Rack and Slay. Fabian Fischer (Ludokultur) handles the design and programming, while Victor Negreiro brings the quirky world to life with distinct, vibrant animations. If their previous work is any indication, expect tight mechanics and a “just one more run” gameplay loop.

    Join the Alpha Playtest

    The playtest went live on March 24, 2026. While the developers note that this is an alpha version—meaning some final art is missing, and it only contains a fraction of the final planned content—the core gameplay loop is fully playable.

    The full version is expected to feature:

    30 unlockable characters with unique twists.

    50 enemy types and a dozen bosses.

    Extensive stat tracking and daily challenges.

    Ready to join the rebellion? Head over to the Topdeck Automat Steam Page and hit “Request Access” to start printing some alien-demolishing blueprints today.

  • Subway Invasion! The morning commute is about to get a lot more extraterrestrial!

    Subway Invasion! The morning commute is about to get a lot more extraterrestrial!

    Publisher indie.io and developer QH Studios have officially announced that Hold the Line Underground: Subway Invasion will pull into the station on April 3, 2026. Launching on Steam as part of the indie.io Franchise Sale, this tactical, wave-based shooter swaps the usual morning delays for a desperate fight for survival beneath the streets of New York City.

    The Last Line of Defense

    In Subway Invasion, you aren’t a super-soldier or a high-tech operative. You are a lone subway security guard. When an alien invasion erupts in the tunnels, you find yourself trapped with a train full of terrified passengers. Your mission is simple but gruelling: protect the train and hold the line against an escalating extraterrestrial threat.

    Starting with only a standard-issue pistol and a handful of rounds, players must navigate the claustrophobic corridors and dimly lit platforms of NYC’s underground. It’s a high-stakes balancing act of quick reflexes and resource management where every bullet literally counts.

    Survival of the Sharpest

    The game blends traditional wave-based combat with tactical environmental interaction. To stay alive, you’ll need to:

    Fortify Your Position: Lock doors to redirect the alien flow and create chokepoints that favour your limited firepower.

    Scavenge Under Pressure: Between waves, you must venture away from the safety of the train to hunt for ammunition and supplies.

    Upgrade Your Arsenal: Use points earned from kills to equip your pistol with scopes, flashlights, and thermal sights. As the threat grows, you’ll gain access to more heavy-duty tools like grenades to thin out the swarm.

    Evolving Threats

    Don’t expect the invaders to play fair. As the waves progress, enemy behaviour shifts. While some aliens will rush you head-on, others are smarter, and the train’s defences will flank your position. The challenge ramps up as enemies become faster, stronger, and more aggressive, forcing you to adapt your strategy in real-time.

    “Every decision can mean the difference between holding the line and watching the system fall.”

    Launch Details

    Release Date: April 3, 2026

    Platform: PC (Steam)

    Developer: QH Studios

    Publisher: indie.io

    If you can’t wait until April to start your shift, a demo is currently available on Steam, featuring a 15-to-30-minute slice of the early game to help you find your footing before the full invasion begins.

  • The Truth is Landing: UFOPHILIA Touches Down on Xbox Play Anywhere February 25th

    The Truth is Landing: UFOPHILIA Touches Down on Xbox Play Anywhere February 25th

    If you’ve spent any time scouring the internet for grainy footage of “unidentified aerial phenomena” or debating the merits of the Roswell incident, your next obsession is about to land.

    UFOPHILIA, the atmospheric investigation horror game from solo developer K148 Game Studio and publisher JanduSoft, is officially making its way to the Xbox ecosystem on February 25, 2026. Even better? It’s launching as an Xbox Play Anywhere title, meaning you can hunt for extraterrestrials on your Xbox Series X|S and pick up right where you left off on your Windows PC.

    What is UFOPHILIA?

    Think Phasmophobia, but trade the ghosts for Greys. In UFOPHILIA, you aren’t a soldier; you’re an investigator obsessed with the unknown. Your weapon isn’t a rifle—it’s a camera and a suite of high-tech sensors.

    Your mission is simple (but terrifying):

    1. Investigate seven unique, eerie locations (from campsites to police stations).
    2. Identify which of the nine distinct alien types is haunting the area.
    3. Photograph the evidence before you become the subject of an abduction.

    Key Features to Watch For

    The game prides itself on psychological dread rather than just cheap jump scares. Here is what you can expect when you boot it up:

    • Dynamic Encounters: No two missions are the same. Spawn zones and alien behaviours are randomised, ensuring that the “safe” corner you found last time might be a hotspot in your next run.
    • The “Roswell” Kit: You’ll have access to EMF detectors, night vision, microwave meters, and heart rate sensors. Pro-tip: Certain tools have hidden synergies when used together.
    • Nine Unique Visitors: Not all aliens are hostile. Some are curious, some are playful (in a creepy way), and some are very much out for blood.
    • Progression System: Earn “Roswell Points” to unlock better gear and harder missions. Can you rise from a “Forum Conspiracy Theorist” to a “Roswell Agent”?

    “The truth is out there… but so are they. And they are watching you back.”

    Pre-Order and Launch Details

    For the early birds who want to secure their clearance level, pre-orders are live now on the Microsoft Store. JanduSoft is currently offering a launch discount, bringing the price down to a very accessible $9.99.

    By leveraging Xbox Play Anywhere, your progress, achievements, and purchases carry over seamlessly across the Microsoft ecosystem. Whether you’re playing on a high-end PC or lounging on the couch with your Xbox Series X, the hunt never has to stop.

    Mark your calendars for February 25. Just… maybe keep the lights on for this one.

  • Film-maker shares “Angelic Experience” He Had With UFO

    Film-maker shares “Angelic Experience” He Had With UFO

    NEW FILM OUT NOW ON TUBI AND AMAZON PRIME

    THE PARANORMAL UFO CONNECTION

    The new film by award winning film-maker Mark Christopher Lee is now streaming on Tubi. The film explores the paranormal nature to UFO encounters and investigates the links between them.

    Lee shares his own “Alien” experience he had as a child which he’s sure was Angelic in nature. He adds:

    “When I was young I had a weird experience of a blue shining light and face appearing on my bedroom wall, it was like a portal had opened from another dimension or world. It was breaking the “Angel” for want of a better word gave me a message that everything was going to be ok. Well, from the next day onwards my world turned upside down and my abusive childhood started but this divine or alien message gave me the courage to get through.”

    “At the time I was sure it was an Angel but now after investigating UFOs and Alien Experiences that people have had I think it may have been an alien encounter, or that Angels and Aliens are the same type of being or energy.”

    The film also explores the mysteries of Quantum Physics and how maybe quantum entanglement may hold the key to explaining both paranormal and UFO experiences. The film features Evelyn Hollow from TV’s Uncanny and also Yvette Fielding from Most Haunted.

    Ian Broadmore a world renowned Demonologist also looks at the links between Aliens and Demons and he states, along with Nick Pope who used to front the UK’s UFO desk for the Military, that many in both the US and UK governments believe that UFOs are demonic in nature. Pope states:

    “Luis Elizondo the whistleblower who used to work for the US government on UFOS was told by a prominent Pentagon official to leave UFOS and alone and to go away and read his bible. This is the attitude that is still prevalent and which why we are not getting full UFO disclosure.”

    The film is out now on Tubi and coming to Amazon Prime soon.
