Frozen District, creators of the critically acclaimed House Flipper series, are ecstatic to shed light on the highly anticipated feature set to debut in House Flipper 2: the Sandbox Mode. This all-new sandbox experience elevates the home renovation gaming experience to new heights. Players are no longer limited to merely flipping existing homes; the Sandbox Mode empowers them to craft houses from the ground up, answering years of dedicated fan feedback from forums and beyond. Prepare to swap your mop for a brick hammer as House Flipper 2 releases on December 14 on Steam.
While Story Mode remains a beloved feature from House Flipper 1, now Sandbox mode promises to give fans what they were missing – and more. Such is the vastness of this sandbox — or perhaps “arena box” would be more apt — that Frozen District’s level designers constructed every house in House Flipper 2’s Story Mode using the Sandbox Mode. This grants players access to the same sophisticated tools wielded by the game developers, essentially transforming this mode into an advanced level editor.
Key Highlights of the Sandbox mode:
New Sandbox Mode: Build from scratch with unparalleled creative freedom.
Advanced Building Tools: Use grid snapping or free placement for meticulous design.
Customization & Flexibility: Clone styles, alter wall heights, or relocate entire houses.
Landscaping: Shape and mold the environment, from rolling hills or deep basements.
Material Customization: Dynamic options to change wall patterns, colors, and more.
Floor Plan View: Top-down planning mode for detailed design and layout.
Expanding Furniture Library: Over 1,500 items, and growing, for detailed interior designs.
Undo & Redo at Will: Simply undo or redo steps, offering players unmatched flexibility.
Endless Design Customization: From adjustable walls to a vast color spectrum for painting.
Creations & Community Sharing: share your house creations with the broader community.
Seamless & Dynamic: Insert windows without prior cut-outs, construct basements, and alter landscapes in real time.
The XGIMI Horizon Ultra is a new 4K projector with Dolby Vision support that has quickly become one of the most popular choices for gamers. It offers many features that make it ideal for gaming, including a low input lag, a high refresh rate, and support for HDR and, as mentioned, Dolby Vision. Unboxing the projector, I was met by a large white/beige box that had no discernible lens or projection mechanism. Sure, it has a host of input options on the back, but nothing of note on the front! I plugged the projector into an available power outlet and hit the power button. Amazingly, like those cool sports car headlights from the 80’s, the front bezel retracted to reveal a large, clear projector lens! It is such a cool geek moment when you turn the projector on and it prepares itself for the entertainment to come.
Here is the official product video for the projector:
The Horizon Ultra produces stunning image quality, with sharp details, vivid colors, and deep blacks. This is thanks to its 4K resolution, Dolby Vision support, and high contrast ratio. The projector also performs well in bright ambient light, making it suitable for use in living rooms and other well-lit spaces.
The Horizon Ultra is a great projector for gaming, thanks to its low input lag and high refresh rate. The input lag is just 8.3ms, which is lower than most TVs and monitors. This means that there is very little delay between your inputs and the action on the screen, giving you a competitive edge in games. The Horizon Ultra also supports a high refresh rate of up to 120Hz. This means that you can enjoy smooth and fluid gameplay, even in fast-paced games like shooters and racing games. With support for both HDR and Dolby Vision, you can enjoy games with enhanced brightness, contrast, and color. Both technologies make games look incredibly realistic and immersive on the Horizon Ultra, with stunning visuals that will blow you away.
All the inputs!
In addition to its excellent gaming performance, the Horizon Ultra is a great choice for all-around use. It has a built-in Android TV operating system, which gives you access to a wide range of streaming apps, games, and other content. The projector also has several smart features, such as automatic keystone correction and autofocus. The smart projector trend which we are enjoying now is an absolute blessing. It wasn’t so long ago that projectors required an external source for their input signals. I remember having to creatively-wrap HDMI cable around my couch so that the Blu-ray player would be able to connect. You can still do that if you wish, but there is plenty of excellent 4K content available by way of the built-in apps. It features both Wi-Fi and a LAN port to allow you the most options for your network setup.
A true projector beauty!
One area that projectors often fail at is their built-in speaker tech. Thankfully, XGIMI is not dropping the ball here either. The projector is equipped with two 12W Harman Kardon speakers that are more than up to the task of movie or game audio. Not missing a beat, there is still an optical output on the back of the project or if you would rather use an external speaker setup.
The one thing that might not work with a gamer’s setup is that the projector features a rather long throw ratio with a max projection size of 200 inches! This beast was made for the home theater environment. It also features a ton of automatic, internal intelligent features like eye protection, obstacle avoidance, and more.
The XGIMI Horizon Ultra is an excellent projector for gamers, offering a combination of low input lag, high refresh rate, and HDR/Dolby Vision support that is unmatched by any other projector in its price range. It is also a great all-around projector, with a built-in Android TV operating system, smart features, and good image quality in bright ambient light. It retails for $1699, so it isn’t cheap, but it is a lot more feature-packed and capable than more expensive projectors on the market. If you’ve got the means and the living room space, you will not be disappointed.
If you are looking for a projector that will give you the best possible gaming experience, the Horizon Ultra is a great option to consider.
Bus Simulator 21 Next Stop – Official School Bus Extension is a DLC for the popular bus simulation game Bus Simulator 21. This new extension was released on September 7, 2022, and adds three new school buses, new missions, and new plenty of new features to the game. The new school buses are all officially licensed from the American manufacturer Blue Bird. They include the All American FE, the All American RE, and the Vision. These buses are all well-designed and accurately modeled, and they provide a realistic driving experience. Each of the buses handles how they seem to in real life. They are realistically sluggish and have a feeling of weight and mass to them.
The new missions are all centered around school trips. Players must pick up children at various stops around the city, transport them safely and punctually to their schools, and then pick them up again at the end of the day. These missions can be challenging, but they are also a lot of fun. They are short enough to keep things moving but long enough to be worth the money of the extension. While the overall experience is a lot of fun, it is not without bugs. The most frustrating thing I encountered was that the awarding of points for use of the stop arm and lights is very buggy and I’ve only got them to trigger properly once. In addition to the new missions, the DLC also adds a number of new features to the game. These include new bus stops, new school buildings, and new NPCs. The new bus stops are located near schools and other important landmarks, and they make it easier for players to pick up and drop off passengers. The new school buildings are also well-designed and accurately modeled. The new NPCs are children, and they add a new level of realism to the game.
The Bus Simulator 21 Next Stop – Official School Bus Extension is one of those gaming experiences that allows you to pass the time with a zen-like driving experience. The game is compatible with most of the big driving peripherals and I loved using my Logitech wheel and pedals while driving my routes. The only thing that would make the game better would be for it to have full VR support.
Overall, Bus Simulator 21 Next Stop – Official School Bus Extension is a great DLC that adds a lot of new content to the game. The new school buses are well-designed and accurately modeled, the new missions are challenging and fun, and the new features make the game more realistic and immersive.
