PlayTest is now... Out of Bounds!

 After almost a one year break, PlayTest is back...sort of but before we get to that though, let us explain why we took this almost year-long break. 

When we launched last October, we had a plan for what the first few weeks and months would look like for the page but due to some unforeseen circumstances that plan kinda went all of the over the place and we got a bit disoriented into where the blog was going and so, after some time to consider everything, we decided to shut down and rework everything and "relaunch" at a later date.

Throughout this last year, we've been preparing for this relaunch by doing quite some work like finding a new image for the blog, preparing tons of content in advance just so we can keep a steady stream of projects coming throughout the rest of the year and just looking on what we could do to improve as a blog.

And so, here we are, finally ready to announce that Out of Bounds (fka PlayTest) is officially relaunching on October 25th, 2024!

We hope to see you around when the time comes and we are excited to have you guys join us on this adventure...

Astro Bot: Stellar Speedway DLC: The Mini-Review

Astro Bot : Stellar Speedway DLC: The Mini-Review Score: 7 out of 10 Overview : " Astro Bot: Stellar Speedway DLC  is a fun, albeit simple, free DLC expansion for Astro Bot. With 5 short levels, the DLC packs some extra fun to an already great campaign however, it's gone as quickly as it came.
