Chasmal Fear Comes Up For Air Next Month

An underwater FPS? With co-op? Colour me intrigued. Launching next month, April 17th, to be precise. It's a real looker. But man, that atmosphere. I don't often do this, but does anyone remember the game Routine? The spacesuit shooter that never released? It's giving me hugely similar vibes. Just, underwater, y'know? this looks gooood. That…

Dreams of Another is About Creation Through Destruction

Due some time this year, it's, well, probably best to check out the trailer and see for yourself. It's an interesting one, 'tis or true. By the way, if that sounds familiar to you, the creation/destruction synergy. It was a theme brought up in Donnie Darko, so we should all have a pretty good idea…

Schrodinger’s Cat Burglar – Couch Co-op With Cat…

I'm going to resist the urge to expound on what the Schrodinger's Cat thought experiment actually is (people often misunderstand) and say...cats that can be in two places at once. Stealing things...or did they?! I guess you'll have to jump in for yourself, and find out. I mean, come on? Would a cat really do…

Calico Gets a Neat Update of Neat Things

Well, that's concise. Does what it says on the tin. Not sure if anyone will get that reference, but we'll go with it. Crazy to see this happening after more than four years, but most certainly welcome. And with the addition of amphibians...does this mean we could see reptiles? Snakes would be awesome to see.…

Show Cthulhu Some Modern Military Hardware in Beneath

Honestly, it's long past time ol' tentacle face had to learn to contend with a stream of armour-piercing rounds, straight to the face. And that's exactly what we're about to see. And you could even be the one to do it, because they're currently accepting submissions for a closed beta. Oh my. Say fhtagn to…

I keep saying, the Chinese dev scene is one to keep an eye on, and here's another example. Set to release at the end of 2025, the next game, The Weeping Swan: Ten Days of the City's Fall is already well under away. You can check the video to learn a little about the art…

Vermintide 2 is Going all Elven

It really never ceases to amaze me just how much support the game gets. It's been out for, like, practically a century, at this point. And today it got a new level set in an Elven temple. Overrun by rats, of course. So make sure those stairs go up, and start smashing.

Rune Factory Goes Full Cozy

Well, almost. Like the rest of the franchise, there's still combat and exploration. But this time around, we're getting a full on city builder experience. Not just a village to explore, but one we can full on create and customise to our hearts' content. Also, riding horses. What more could a growing boy need?

Alien Market Simulator has a Demo

Have you ever been to a newsagents (convenience store) and lamented the lack of extraterrestrial life? What do you mean 'no'? Anyway, that's what this is. You run a shop, stock the shelves and all that, but in space. Pretty cool idea, actually. These kinds of games are awesome little time sinks, very zen. And…

Super Puzzled Cat is Out Now

Be a cat, solve puzzles, slide on ice. The thing that actually caught my eye is save states. Not something we usually see outside of, ahh, let's say more obtuse methods of gaming. Being able to drop a save anywhere and really experiment with solutions is a really cool idea, that I think more puzzle…
