Steel Seed Gets New Publishing Deal

Developer Storm in a Teacup is probably best known for its 2019/2020 title, Close to the Sun. A Bioshock-like that got a little… Too close, to the the sun. Jokes and jabs at the Tesla (no, the guy, not company) and Edison-focused take on…

Doctor Who Series 14 Air Dates Confirmed; Controversy Ensues

Ahh yes, the “Shameful” BBC, as the Daily Mail calls it while quoting Twitter users with three followers and no profile picture. I’ll admit, I’m a little confused by the decision myself, for several reasons. Even if it benefits me I don’t fully…

The Bridge & Mankind Divided Are Free on Epic

Monday, Activision QA testers joined the Strawbs at becoming “Part Of The Union,” and there was a dev diary for Titan Quest II. Tuesday, Multiversus is relaunching later this year, and the Monster Hunter Stories games are coming to new platforms. Wednesday, Stig Asmussen was really quick at setting up a new developer of…

Activision QA Unionize, Largest in Industry

Astro Duel 2 is Free on Epic

Monday, Venba is getting free DLC soon. Tuesday, you’ll be able to “Dine Out” in House Flipper (1), EA continues to cancel stuff, apparently, and Xbox had a Partner Preview on Thursday. Wednesday, Hairdresser Simulator was released with amazing facial expressions (see the article header), while WBD addresses the “volatile” console market with…

Star Trek: Picard “Remembrance” – Review

With more writers and story editor credits for one episode than there are brain cells that put together for “Et in Arcadia Ego,” I’m sure “Remembrance” can start and continue a great sequel series. Sarcasm aside, Picard was one of the shows I was…

Frostpunk 2 Given Warm Release Date

Oh, the weather outside is frightful, and this pillar of fire is so delightful, I hope the children keep digging me coal, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! Anyway, enough about my winter, let’s talk Frostpunk 2. Yes, the franchise…
