Hey there!
Come check out my buddy’s YouTube channel! We’re live streaming a fun battle royale game called Realm Royale on YouTube! (Will review later)
Channel: Fire Falcon
Shellshock Live
Gameplay:
There isn’t any background for this one, so we will get right into gameplay! In Shellshock Live, you are a tank pitted against other tanks (either in teams or free for all) on a small 2-D map. These aren’t just ordinary tanks however! These tanks shoot the most abstract weapons possible. Here is a small list of weapons these tanks can shoot:
- Fire
- Water
- Giant Exploding Bouncy Balls
- Airstrikes
- Rainbows
- Goldfish
- Grenades
- Sniper Rounds
- Electricity
- Pixels
- Stars
- Zippers
- Shovels
- Land builders
- and much MUCH more!
Whenever a tank dies, it drops the weapons it had left for others to collect. Shooting these abstract weapons however is easier said than done! Besides the fact that each weapon has a different special action that dictates what situation they are best used in, you must angle all of your shots over (and sometimes under) the hills of the map! there are also powerups that can help you gain an edge over your enemy however. Sometimes a crate will spawn in the sky. If you shoot it, you gain its contents. Contents can include:
- Extra Armor
- A Jetpack
- An EMP
- And More
Obstacles can also spawn to either help, or hurt you. Here is a list of obstacles:
- Walls – Deflect shots
- Circular Walls – Deflect shots
- Double Damage – If your bullet passes through this ring, it will do double damage to the tank your shot lands on
- Portals – Teleports your shot to the other on screen portal
- Black Holes – If your bullet passes through the edge of this ring, it will curve its trajectory in the direction of the black hole’s spiral. If your bullet hits the center of this ring, it will disappear.
Overall Opinion
I personally found this game very fun! If you are the kind of gamer that enjoys a game that makes you think a little before you act, but is not too difficult, Shellshock Live is the game for you!
Lastly, I want to thank all my reader for being patient in waiting for a new review. Thanks for reading!
Shoutouts #2
Hello everyone! I am very sorry I have not been posting lately. I have been taking a little break. That break ended up being not so little, but dont worry, I am going to start cranking out reviews again!
Now for a shoutout:
A big thanks to the Well-Red Mage for being my second follower! Please go check out their page here!

Shiny New Website!!!
Well, the website was looking kind of old and needed some love, so I broke out the paint and went to work! The finished product is what you see now: A still very simplistic design that is easier on the eyes and is more organized!
In other news: I am still researching (and by researching I mean playing a lot of) Mount and Blade: Warband DLC. I have learned a lot but still have more to learn as the DLC seems to be way more in depth than the base game. Keep a look out on the horizon for it however because a post about it may come soon!
More Mount and Blade
Hello again!
So, a little update for you all: I will ,in fact, be reviewing the Mount and Blade: Warband DLC. I received no comments or likes regarding the subject, but Mount and Blade: Warband remains the most popular review on this website. It may take a while to get a post out about it, however, due to my lack of experience with the DLC, so expect some other reviews in between!
In other news, I might be updating the overall look of this site. I was looking at this website on my phone and began to realize how bland and flavorless it looks! I do not know if or when this will happen, so I will not offer an ETA.
That is all for today! Thanks for reading.
Popular Posts
Hello everyone! I haven’t posted in a while, so I figured I would post an idea that I have been toying with to see how receptive you all are to it.
I check the statistics of my website daily, and have noticed a pattern: My posts about Mount and Blade: Warband are very popular in comparrison to all of my other posts! Upon realizing this I thought, “what if I do separate reviews for the DLC?”
So now I am presenting this idea to you, my readers, to see if this is something you would like to see. If you would like to see this, please leave a like or post a comment!
That’s all! Thanks for reading!
Duck Game
Hello everyone! Sorry to keep you waiting for so long on this review. Today I am reviewing another one of my favorites: Duck Game!
Overview:
After an unknown war breaks out, you must break some glass with a shotgun and hop into battle against other ducks in this fast passed shooter game.
Gameplay:
In duck game, you spawn on a map and only get a few seconds to see where you are before the battle starts. Once the battle starts, chaos ensues, and you must scramble to find a weapon, which can be anything from a giant death laser, to an old fashioned musket. The goal of the game: to be the last one alive at the end of the round. Once the round ends, another round starts. This keeps happening until the intermission which happens every ten rounds. During the intermission, you will throw a rock with your hat on it. The distance you throw it is equal to the amount of wins you have. You win the game once your rock reaches the end zone.
Shennanigan Factors:
This game is so oddball and unique that I had to add an extra section just to talk about some of the wackyness of this game! This section is simply to elaborate on all of the random thing this game has that makes it so fun to play with strangers and friends alike!
Shennanigan List:
- Nerf Guns: the nerf pistol is not very useful, but the nerf gatling gun, when fired enough will shoot flaming nerf darts. Who wants a nerf war?!
- Net Guns: Have you ever wanted to put that one annoying friend of yours into a net and throw them off the planet? You can do that here!
- Mind Control Guns and Tin Foil Hats: You can zap someone with a mind control ray and make them jump off the map! Not if they have a tin foil hat though. Party poopers.
- Instruments: Are you an inspired musical genius? You can play your heart out with instruments like the trumpet, trombone, saxophone, and drums! The notes will change with different key combos too.
- Magic Books: Read one near another player to change them to your color! If any of the converted ducks survive at the end of the round, you get extra points!
- Magnet Guns: Having problems eliminating that one player who has full armor and a sword? Simple solution: magnetize them and throw them off a cliff!
- Hats: Your hat is a decorational item (or if teams are enabled, it represents the team you are on) that makes you look fancy! There are many outrageous hats that you can wear such as a refridgerator, hamburger, pan, paper bag, fedora, or TV! All of these do different things when you quack too!
Overall Opinion:
This game is an amazingly fun game best played with a controller and friends, whether you are playing locally, or are on a skype call with them! If you like mindless fast paced fun, this game is DEFINATELY for you!
Thanks for reading! If you liked what I wrote, or think I left anything out, please leave a comment!
