Campaigns in From Dust are structured as a sequence of missions, whereby completing certain objectives expedites the tribe’s progress and bestows additional powers, such as the capacity to jellify water. Tribal shamans alert the player to natural disasters, notably tsunamis and volcanic eruptions, shortly before they occur. These disasters can be inhibited through creative, physical manipulation of the environment: a tsunami can be jellified, wildfires extinguished, and lava flows diverted.
We are including this game today as it is one of the best indie games we have played in recent years.
The game engine is surprisingly demanding and we failed to get anything close to smooth frame rates at 720p, so we dropped the resolution to 800×600.
Sadly, even at these reduced settings, the engine was very juddery and not at all playable, often dropping to 15-18 fps. Clearly a game which demands a fairly powerful discrete card for optimal performance.
Wow that is tiny, smallest computer ive seen.
I have the same hard drive in my dell laptop and its dire. Apart from that this looks like a nice system. Small too.
Id change the hdd but not much else
The green top is wicked, is that an led?
Great looking media system. Well constructed
Shame it isnt a tiny bit bigger and had a bluray drive. Bit i pose it would cost 400 then
They should do one in black and green
I am ordering one as I love the fact this has displayport ! I will replace the drive and use it as an external storage unit. great review thanks.
really pretty little nettop system, I love the appearance and loads of ports. including displayport and HDMI.
Shame they dropped the ball a little with the hard drive, but its easy replaced and I like the fact you can put your own OS on it too
Or you could just buy the barebones one and get the RAM and drive yourself.
Thorough review!
do you think it will be able to run Pro Evolution Soccer 2011/2012 with an acceptable fps?
I’ve seen it run on a core i3 (before sandybridge) cpu + intel hd graphics and for me it works pretty well! (720p)
Lower RPM drive is to keep the box cool. A higher RPM Drive may cause heat issues.
Wonder if the remote will work with Linux
Diego
HD6310 destroy i3 graphic by a 3x factor.
