Ring Runner: Flight of the Sages, is a top down space shooter with some RPG elements, most notably it has 300 equipable skills that can be slotted into 64 different ships that fit 5 different archetypes or classes, these include Rouge stealth ships and Grappler melee ships. The game itself is horizontal plus natively and has a centred HUD and UI (at 16:9 aspect ratio, but the HUD can be scaled down in the options). The multi-monitor support would be perfect if the game wasn't running XNA, which has a back buffer limited to 4096, this mean that when the game was released it used to crash to desktop if a resolution over 4096 was selected, however indie developers have proved there worth over AAA developers again by fixing the game as best they could within the limitations of XNA, so the game now happy runs beyond a 4K resolution.
The video itself is part analysis, part walkthough and part waffle, feel free to like or dislike my video and comment are always welcome too.
While this video can be watched on any screen it has been encoded to look best on a multi-monitor system, so if your running such a system, then select original quality from the drop down box and watch in fullscreen.

So I have not been able to sit down and record in a while, been waiting to get this done for a long time so glad I finally got it done. Shame some of the quality is not up to my personal standards but the content is there and in a review that is what counts the most so I hope you enjoy the review.
I feel this product may be very useful for a lot of my fellow gamers.

Elsword is an free to play 2.5D brawler, it has an anime art style. It's multi-monitor support is not great, while the game renders it's 3D horizontal plus, all 2D is horribly stretched to fit the screen, this includes all menus and HUD elements. At time of writing I know of no fix for this, I brought this up with the developers and was told the game was designed to be played on a single monitor not 3. When I pointed out this issue would effect people with single monitor, basically anyone not using a 16:9 aspect ratio, and pointed out that designing the game so that the UI is only ever correctly scaled on a single aspect ratio is bad design for the PC platform they deleted the thread. Otherwise details of the game itself and my opinions on it can be found in my video.

Armed with a broadaxe, a guitar, and a big block V8 you set off on an epic quest to assemble an army of headbangers, hotrods, barbarians, demonic dominatrix and the undead.
