00:00:12.880 --> 00:00:18.160
right, guys. Welcome to our Indie Mega Booth top five. Just as a note, games

00:00:16.880 --> 00:00:22.160
we've covered before are not going to be in this. So, stuff like Zing and

00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:24.640
Distance are here and they're awesome, but I'm not going to cover them in this

00:00:23.439 --> 00:00:29.519
top five because I've covered them before in the past. So, let's get right to it. The first game, and I don't

00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:34.000
usually admit this, but my favorite one here was Rockets, Rockets, Rockets. I

00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:36.800
played against Nick. Crazy game. It's all about shooting insane amount of

00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:41.360
rockets. You're this little spaceship thing, and you got to fly around. And it's all directional with a thumb stick.

00:00:40.079 --> 00:00:45.040
You pick where you fly, and it's thruster based movement. So, if you push

00:00:43.760 --> 00:00:48.079
your thumb stick in one direction, it's going to try to throw you in that direction. So, you're going to have

00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:52.480
momentum, and you're going to fly all over the place. It's tons of fun. And you're shooting an insane amount of

00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:55.440
rockets at each other. It's all about timing your shields. So, you have to pop

00:00:54.160 --> 00:00:59.920
your shield on, which doesn't last forever, and try to block either the

00:00:57.440 --> 00:01:03.199
rocket or use your timed shield to smash into the other dude while he doesn't

00:01:01.440 --> 00:01:06.560
have a shield on. And you have to try to mix that all together. And it's very fun

00:01:05.360 --> 00:01:11.280
because it's really, really, really fast-paced. It's on Steam right now for early access. They're rolling out big

00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:15.439
updates every month. I believe it's about $5 right now. Not all the features

00:01:14.240 --> 00:01:21.040
are in there obviously because it's early access which I know not a ton of us are actually fans of but it will be

00:01:18.479 --> 00:01:25.360
releasing I believe sometime in Q1 or Q2 of 2015 if you're interested in it.

00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:27.920
It'll be up one to four players. There's going to have solo modes. You're going

00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:31.439
to have online multiplayer. A lot of the stuff again isn't in the game yet but

00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:35.920
tons of it will be there. So I would highly suggest checking it out. I know I'm going to. It was a lot of fun.

00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:40.240
Secondly, in no particular order, there's Assault Android Cactus, which is

00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:44.240
a super fun bullet hell with a, in my opinion, not that fantastic name, but

00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:47.439
you'll remember it. So, I guess they got that job done. It's a bullet hell where

00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:53.119
you can play one to four players. With four players, it's more of kind of like a party mode with an insane amount of

00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:56.960
enemies. And with one player, it's more tactical and and precise, and you have

00:01:55.280 --> 00:01:59.920
to be very careful. It's interesting. Tons of different levels, boss modes,

00:01:58.880 --> 00:02:04.000
all that kind of stuff. And I'm pretty sure they're going to have online multiplayer later. I believe it's in

00:02:02.399 --> 00:02:07.759
early access right now, so I believe you can check it out on Steam. So yeah, if

00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:13.040
you're into Bullet Hills, maybe check that out. Then we come to Cannon Brawl, a

00:02:11.440 --> 00:02:18.000
game where if you're sitting next to the person you're playing against, I wouldn't even be that surprised if it

00:02:15.440 --> 00:02:22.080
gets physical because what it is is it's kind of like a wormsesque style map. You

00:02:20.640 --> 00:02:26.640
have your main base and you kind of have to build cannons and shields and other

00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:31.200
kind of structures to fight with the other guy and whoever destroys the other

00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:34.480
person's base first wins. But because of how the game is paced, I fully expect

00:02:33.120 --> 00:02:38.879
you to end up punching the guy before you actually win. We'll see how that goes for you. I believe it's on Steam

00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:43.840
early access right now, so you can check it out. It's quite a bit of fun if you're into that kind of base versus

00:02:41.920 --> 00:02:48.319
base style game. Then we come to Darknet, a hacker game, but a Hollywood

00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:52.640
hacker game like pretty much all of them are. The idea is it's a VR game in

00:02:50.560 --> 00:02:56.080
Oculus. It's coming to whatever platform it's supported in later on. They're

00:02:54.480 --> 00:02:59.760
pretty much just tying themselves to VR in general. And it's a it's a puzzle

00:02:58.400 --> 00:03:02.800
game. You get different things like worms and viruses and all that kind of

00:03:01.440 --> 00:03:05.840
stuff. You have to go through and take over nodes. You get money from taking

00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:11.680
over the nodes and you can buy more viruses and whatnot. It's fairly standard puzzle game, but it is in kind

00:03:09.760 --> 00:03:14.560
of like a hacker environment. So, if you're into that kind of scene, maybe

00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:20.560
you'd like it. Check it out on Steam. I believe it's in early access. Not now,

00:03:17.040 --> 00:03:22.400
but he said soon. So, whenever that is.

00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:27.280
And last but not least is Super Meat Boy Forever. This isn't necessarily a new

00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:31.440
idea as it's Super Meat Boy, but the idea behind it is that you pick kind of

00:03:29.200 --> 00:03:34.159
a difficult difficulty or a zone and then it just randomly generates the

00:03:32.959 --> 00:03:38.080
levels for you. That's why it's called Forever. You could potentially play this

00:03:36.239 --> 00:03:41.440
game forever. And I expect quite a few of my friends to pretty much do that. I

00:03:40.239 --> 00:03:44.959
have quite a few people that I know that love Super Me Boy, including Lionus. So,

00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:48.400
I'm sure he'll be excited to hear about this as I've been watching their

00:03:46.640 --> 00:03:51.920
randomly generated content and it all seems quite quality. So, I'm excited to

00:03:50.480 --> 00:03:55.599
check this game out as well. All right, guys. I hope you liked our Indie Mega

00:03:53.599 --> 00:03:58.640
Booth roundup. You can check hopefully links for those games in the description

00:03:57.040 --> 00:04:04.000
down below. Although some of them don't have any links, so I don't know how that's going to work, but you'll figure

00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:08.480
it out. Uh, also before you go, click on this button to subscribe to HyperX's

00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:11.439

00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:15.200
just make crappy product videos. They also have really good, highquality,

00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:18.639
interesting videos. So, I highly suggest checking them out. And also, thank you
