The 2023 Formula One season yielded a grand total of three winning drivers over 22 Grands Prix. Just six rounds into the 2024 season and we’ve already seen three different GP winners, across three different teams to boot. Has this season just threatened to become interesting?
You can now feed people to the big beast in The Wandering Village
26.04.2024 - 12:21 / rockpapershotgun.com
Eco-conscious village builder The Wandering Village sees you raising a settlement on the back of a huge wandering creature called Onbu. For the most part, you live in a symbiotic relationship with this gentle giant, as your villagers keep the gargantuan trundlesaur healthy while being ferried about on its back. Awww. Well, the wholesome city-builder now lets you feed villagers to the creature and start a cult in the great devourer's name. Okay. Why not?
"75% of this crazy community voted Yes on the option to feed villagers to Onbu," say developers Stray Fawn Studio in an update post. "Not only does this fill up Onbu’s belly, but it also terrifies your villagers so much that they will stop revolting and start seeing Onbu as a divine being. They will then demand more sacrifices to Onbu, or become more and more unhappy with each level of the cult."
The masses have made their desires clear, I suppose. This people-as-popcorn update is on the game's testing branch for now and also adds parasites to certain biomes. Villagers will now have to deal with infesting critters that land on their dread lord's back with a new "Pest Control" building. But pests may be useful, the developers add. Eggs laid by some parasites can be farmed and eaten, for example. Delicious.
You can see the full list of changes in the patch notes for the update. Again, it's on the "testing" branch for now. But that post will tell you how to access that.
Rachel thought Onbu was a big ol' beaut in her early access review of The Wandering Village, calling it "a top-tier management sim" despite its familiar elements. It's still in early access but the game has added a fair amount since then, including oceans for your powerful pal to paddle upon and a trade post building to add some depth to gathering resources.
The planet surface that Onbu walks upon is often toxic and inhospitable (hence the back-dwelling). But it is possible that this landscape is itself part of another, bigger Onbu. This is what I choose to believe. It's Onbus all the way down.

Spider-Man Blasters You Can Load Up With Web Fluid Are Now A Thing
I've been wishing I could be Spider-Man for as long as I can remember, but the closest I've come to replicating that fictional feeling is by swinging around New York as the web-slinger in Insomniac's Spidey games. The idea of actually being able to fire webs from my wrists was an unattainable goal since, well, radioactive spiders aren't a thing, and if they were, being bitten by one probably wouldn't result in the development of superpowers. Kids today won't need to rely on that impossibility as Hasbro has created real-life Web Blasters, no radioactive spider bite needed.

You Can Already Pre-Order The Knuckles Show Blu-ray On Amazon
The Sonic cinematic universe expanded beyond the big screen last week as all six episodes of the Knuckles spinoff show sped exclusively onto Paramount Plus. The show has been receiving mixed reviews so far. An audience score of 75 percent on Rotten Tomatoes is pretty great, but the apparent lack of Knuckles in the show hasn't been sitting well with a lot of Sonic fans. Whether you love the show and you'd like to own a physical version, or you don't have Paramount and you're waiting for other ways to watch it, pre-orders for its Blu-ray and DVD versions are already available.

You Can Now Play As The Ghoul In Fallout 4
Walton Goggins' Cooper «The Ghoul» Howard is undoubtedly the break-out character of Prime Video's series and fans of the show who are desperate to roam around as the gunslinger can now do so thanks to an impressive new mod. Given the sheer amount of customization options available to players in Bethesda's post-apocalyptic RPG, it stands to reason that someone would eventually conjure up a convincing take on The Ghoul. However, since the base game doesn't allow players to become Ghouls, some modding is necessary to achieve the desired look.
