This week already brought confirmation of Warner Bros.’ plans to follow the Man Of Steel sequel with a Justice League movie, and today’s news cycle offers a hint at what else the studio has planned for the big-screen side of DC Comics.

In a profile of the studio that features an interview with DC Entertainment president Diane Nelson, The Wall Street Journal reports that Warner Bros. has nine films currently planned for DC Comics properties — and that’s in addition to the upcoming Man Of Steel sequel and Justice League movie. While the identities of a few of those projects are relatively easy to guess, the full scope of WB’s plans — nine films beyond those that have been announced — comes as a surprise.

So far, the list of likely candidates includes the planned film based on Neil Gaiman’s Sandman series, which is being produced by Joseph Gordon-Levitt (who may also direct and/or star in the project). Earlier this month, Gaiman gave his approval to British writer Jack Thorne as the intended screenwriter for the film and met with Gordon-Levitt to discuss the project.

In announcing the Justice League movie, Warner Bros. President of Worldwide Marketing Sue Kroll also indicated that the studio hopes to turn Gal Gadot’s debut as Wonder Woman in the Man Of Steel sequel into a solo movie featuring the character.

A third possibility is WB’s plan for a Fables movie based on Bill Willingham’s fairy tale adventure series. Back in June 2013, A Royal Affair director Nikolaj Arcel was attached to direct the film, but there haven’t been many updates since that announcement.

Other long-rumored projects include a Shazam movie that once had Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson attached to play the film’s villain, as well as a Justice League Dark movie that Guillermo del Toro has thrown his support behind. There have also been various other DC Comics properties in different stages of development over the years.

Before fans get too caught up in theories regarding a potential DC Comics cinematic universe like the one Marvel has created, it’s worth noting that the article suggests Nelson isn’t sold on the idea of creating a unified universe for DC’s cast of characters.

“It isn’t about a single approach to everything,” said Nelson on the subject of whether DC is looking to create their own live-action universe across movie and television properties. “It’s the right character matched with the right talent in the right medium.”

Is Manor Lords multiplayer or co-op?
A medieval market in Manor Lords.

You can easily lose hours designing your village and appeasing your citizens in Manor Lords all by yourself. There are so many different avenues to achieve victory, but the only competition or help you can normally find is in the form of NPCs. Other factions around the map can be helpful or harmful depending on how you play, but what if you wanted to team up with a friend to combine resources, or perhaps compete to see who can crush the other first? Many strategy and city builders thrive on multiplayer components, but does Manor Lords offer those same modes? Make sure you know the answer before making your purchase if that's your intention.
Is there multiplayer or co-op in Manor Lords?
To cut to the chase, the answer is no. Manor Lords is a purely single-player experience through and through. There are no cooperative or competitive modes in the game at all, so there's no way to interact with anyone else either on PC or console. This game was just released out of early access, and there is plenty of content on the way, however, we regret to inform you that multiplayer is not in the plans for the time being.

One developer took to the Steam forums to release an FAQ on the game. One question specifically asked if there is any multiplayer or cooperative gameplay in the game. The response said that "he focus is on a refined single-player experience, with no multiplayer or cooperative modes planned at the moment."

There are a ton of commands you can input to manipulate your character, the world, objects, and more. Here's a full rundown of all the cheats there are and how to activate them.
How to enter console commands

How to get a gun in Another Crab’s Treasure
Kril has a gun

Another Crab's Treasure no doubt looks like a kid-friendly game, but hiding beneath its charming and cute exterior is a challenging soulslike experience that can test the mettle of genre veterans. Those who either can't or don't want to engage with such intense difficulty throughout this underwater adventure can make great use of a variety of assists. Among these is a rather shocking, but hilarious option that can completely negate nearly all of the game's challenge while providing some laughs along the way. Here's how to get a gun in Another Crab's Treasure.
How to get a gun
To give yourself a gun in Another Crab's Treasure, head over to the Settings menu. Navigate to Assist Mode at the bottom of the menu, then scroll to the bottom once more to a setting called Give Kril a Gun. Toggle this on, then back out and resume your game to find that Kril now has a massive pistol on his back in place of a shell.

This new gun on your back provides you with more than just a funny visual, though -- it actually allows you to shoot and kill any enemy in a single hit, nearly eliminating all of the challenge from the game. Additionally, if you're after trophies or achievements, the first time you shoot a crab with the gun will also unlock "This Kills the Crab."
