The Warhammer universe will continue its reach through time and space with the upcoming PC adaptation of the 1999 board game, Mordheim: City of the Damned. While not set in the current timeline, Mordheim takes place in the Imperial city of ... well, Mordheim, which is part of the Warhammer universe.
While the Warhammer universe regularly deals in galactic-scale conflict, Mordheim focuses on a smaller-scale skirmish within the city, where a fallen comet has turned the metropolis into a warzone. The game, developed by Rogue Factor and published by Focus Home Interactive, looks to keep the same tone of a more bite-sized battle. Gameplay will focus on turn-based tactics with a blend of RPG elements and unit customization, according to a press release.
Mordheim is expected to let loose the hounds - and wererats - of war late this year.

Tiny Brains launched on the PS4 in December last year, and since then it's gotten a bit bigger on the inside: a free update to the game has added new time-based and puzzle challenges, a new superpower, online functionality for the demo which allows players to join up with those who own a full copy of the game, and more.
Arguably, the biggest update of all is that the game is now a cross-buy purchase for PS3 and PS4, so you'll get two copies for the price of one. Or rather, two for half the price of one; the game's initial price of $20 has been cut down to $10 across all platforms, which means that the game is now both tinier and larger. Whoa. We ... we may need to sit down.

Overall, I liked these tables even more than the ones that came with the original release, so if you’re itching for more Star Wars themed pinball, I’m happy to say that these do not disappoint. Let’s just hope we don’t need to pull a Jedi Mind Trick on Zen Studios to get them to release the next pack of DLC for this game sometime soon.

Who cares if April Fools' Day isn't for a couple more days? That hasn't stopped the internet from letting loose with its tricks. At least we're starting things off well with a joke about Nester being in Smash Bros.. I think that would be a neat addition, but he's far too niche to include. Oh well, at least he lives on through this joke! Thanks to all that sent this in.

A portion of a C3 interview with Nifflas and Knapnok producer Dajana Dimovska...
Cubed3: Will there be a storyline and protagonist, if so, how goes this side of the game come into play?
Nifflas: You have rented a cheap spaceship by UExplore, and they have provided transportation for you and your friends to go on an adventure to explore a safe and friendly planet. However, the planet doesn't seem that safe and friendly at all. Plus, the fact that your transportation is scattered over the landscape in hundreds of small pieces might mean you got more adventure than you asked for.
The protagonist in the game is the spaceship, and the planet you landed on. There's definitely a story, but it's not really told. The idea is that you can work it out if you look carefully enough at the landscape and environments, but players can still have a good time even if you don't care for that. We have not created an avatar or personality for the pilot, because the idea is that it's you who is inside that ship. Our job as game developers is to make you regret trying to get away with low-budget space travel. Seriously, if you want to cut costs, maybe do it with something else, silly.
Cubed3: Could multiplayer work given the strong focus on a single-player adventure?
Nifflas: The game can be played single-player, but don't think of it as a single-player game first. It's designed to be super fun for two or three people since you can all fly the same ship and control different aspects of it. My recommendation is definitely multiplayer if you have someone to play it with. However, there's no mode where you have different ships, and no competition, and no deathmatches. That just wouldn't make any sense in this game.
Dajana: In the multiplayer mode, a second player can take on the spaceship movement controls and a third player can use the scanner controls. In this case the first player is the engineer and has to control the engines and spaceship systems (adjusting values and turning on and off systems), while the second player flies the spaceship and the third player controls the scanner. They have to all work together to be able to operate the spaceship and avoid dangerous situations together.
This mode is to some extent inspired by Start Trek, especially the setting where the captain gives commands to the crew. The multiplayer mode has this atmosphere since communication between players is a key to passing the puzzles.
Cubed3: Would you consider portable platforms like Nintendo 3DS for a port or extra controller?
Nifflas: Definitely! Only, it's a quite heavy game when it comes to graphics, and the 3DS touchscreen is way too small for the current ship interface. It'd require some major work to make it fit the 3DS, but hey, you never know!

Howdy Heroes! Last night, we all sat down and put our noggins together to come up with the first three stretch goals. Unlike other campaigns, the order of these stretch goals will be determined by you, the backer! We’ll be sending out a survey where you can rank the stretch goals in the order you would want us to achieve them.
Without further ado, here's the first set of goals!

Atropos is the name of the eldest of the Three Fates in Greek mythology; the sister who used shears to cut the thread of a mortal's life. It is also the name of Minecraft user CARLOOOO's giant clockwork tortoise that has a steampunk city sprouting out of its back.
We're not a fashion or celebrity gossip website so we won't get into a "who wore it better" argument over the name, but if we were to do such a thing, we think you know who we'd pick. (Hint: It's the giant clockwork tortoise with a steampunk city on its back.) Just sayin'.
The whole project took five months to complete, and went through several designs - including a whale version - before settling on the one you can now download. If you want to take a tour before committing to such a large investment of real estate, check out the video above.
