Chopmania – revealed!!
What mysteries might be hidden in those woods?? Drive your harvester, chop some trees, and find out in this relaxing adventure RPG game!
Publisher and Developer Gamex Studio revealed their new upcoming game, a fresh take on all those digging & mining games. Inspired by the legendary Motherload, Chopmania now promises a fresh take on the genre by switching up the mining with chopping trees, which opens up a whole new dimension & interesting mechanics for players to explore.
About the game:
After the world has cut away too many forests, something happened… it appeared as if Earth fought back and started accelerating the growth of trees at exponential rates. Within a few years, thousands of cities became engulfed in trees and started eroding back humanity’s land. Humanity put monumental efforts into trying to keep the spread back, but it’s barely holding on.
Rumors spread that there were supernatural forces at work, fueling this exponential growth, but all efforts thus far to uncover the truth have failed…
In the last effort to save humanity, several outposts were deployed deep in the woods in an attempt to liberate the remaining cities and uncover something that would give hope back to humanity… You are in charge of one of these outposts with your trusted harvester… Go now, chop chop!
The citizens of various cities have been radioed and made aware that you have the biggest and meanest harvester around, so they count on you to reconnect them with the rest of civilization!
So, you almost got the role of a hero, but will you justify it?
Chop your way into the forest, while returning as many logs as you can back to your base to sell for profits. Don’t let your capitalist mind fool you though, instead use this only to fund your selfless efforts as you upgrade your harvester to move deeper into the woods. Remember, you are here to save humanity, not to reap profits for yourself!
As you dive deeper into the forest, you will encounter various challenges and missions, such as liberating cities from the overgrowth, finding ways to overcome impassable terrain like rivers, and more! The forest will get thicker and harder to cut through, as well as riddled with various dangers and obstacles, so you will have to make sure to keep upgrading your harvester to be able to cut your way deeper.
There are a lot of cities to liberate, far from your base, so you’ll have to keep an eye on your fuel levels as well. Cut strategic paths to allow you faster refueling and reaching further than ever before.
But don’t worry – there are certain technologies you can uncover and builds towards, such as the recently discovered teleport device, which will allow you to cover massive distances in the blink of an eye!
Can you venture deep enough by getting tips from the locals, and uncover the mysteries of the overgrowth and how to stop it? Well – humanity’s future depends on it, so we certainly hope so!
The directors of Gamex Studio, Rok Jesenicnik, and Andraz Vene said:
”Chopmania was designed to be a relaxing and fun game to play where players would enjoy exploring the places around the main base trying to get deeper into the woods when playing optimally on various levels. The chopping mechanics are designed to be satisfying to a player, and we’re adding new elements progressively, so the players always have something new to uncover. And the world is built procedurally, so no two playthroughs will be the same!
Players who played the games like Motherload, should surely enjoy Chopmania as well!”
Chopmania is set to be released in 2023 for Windows and Linux. Visit the newly established official Steam page to wishlist the game and stay updated.

10-15% Of Gamers In Florida Show Signs Of Gaming Addiction: Here Are 10 Signs Your Kid Is Suffering From It (And How You Can Help)
Recent studies indicate that 10-15% of young gamers in Florida exhibit signs of gaming addiction. These findings underscore the need for early identification of symptoms to prevent negative impacts on children’s mental and physical health. Gaming addiction, if not dealt with, can lead to poor academic performance, social withdrawal, and even health problems.
Marin Cristian-Ovidiu, CEO of FreezeNova, discusses key indicators of gaming addiction and offers practical advice for parents.
Recognizing Early Signs
“Early recognition of gaming addiction is crucial in preventing long-term negative outcomes,” Marin explains. The following signs can help parents identify if their child might be developing an addiction:
Exhaustion and Irritability
Constant tiredness and grumpiness during the day could indicate late-night gaming sessions interfering with sleep.
Gaming Obsession
If gaming dominates your child’s thoughts and conversations, and they plan their day around it while neglecting other responsibilities, it could be a sign of addiction.
Decline in Academic Performance and Lost Interests
A noticeable decline in academic performance or loss of interest in previously enjoyed activities may suggest your child is prioritizing gaming over more important tasks.
Emotional Volatility
Extreme emotional reactions to in-game outcomes, such as uncontrolled anger, known as ‘Gamer Rage’, or intense celebrations, could indicate an unhealthy attachment to gaming.
Physical Strain
Signs of repetitive strain injuries like ‘Gamer’s Thumb’ or ‘Nintendo Neck’ from prolonged screen time are warning signals.
Neglecting Basic Needs
If your child is neglecting basic needs like eating, sleeping, or hygiene to keep playing, gaming has likely taken an unhealthy control over their life.
Creating a Supportive Environment
While video games can be a great source of entertainment and connection, around 70% of people with signs of gaming addiction also experience social disorders. Marin recommends a few tips for building a supportive and open environment for your child.
Teamwork and Setting Boundaries
“Parents and children should work together to create a healthy gaming environment. Gaming addiction requires a holistic approach,” Marin advises. Start by setting clear boundaries on gaming time to ensure there’s room for schoolwork, chores, and quality family time.
Revisit activities your child once loved, like football practice or exploring new hobbies together. It’s vital for your child to take breaks from screens, so create a balanced daily routine that includes homework, chores, exercise and just some gaming time. This allows your child to enjoy their games without neglecting other aspects of their life.
Open Communication
Maintain open communication. Discuss the games your child enjoys and any concerns you might have. By understanding their world, you can work together to find solutions.
Remember, you’re not alone. If you feel overwhelmed, seek professional help from specialists in gaming addiction. Marin concludes, “By working as a team, setting clear boundaries, and fostering open communication, we can help your child develop a healthy relationship with gaming and thrive in all areas of life.”
