Every great leader knows it: you can’t make an omelette without breaking some eggs. Sometimes you have to do bad things in order to achieve good things. Sometimes you have to spill a little blood. Sometimes you have to, let’s see here, kill 806 quadrillion people via famine in the space of a single year….
I really enjoyed surreal roguelike Ball X Pit when I reviewed it earlier this month—so it’s great to hear that it’s since gone on to be a huge hit. According to a post by the developer on Bluesky, it’s already sold 300,000 copies just in the first five days of being on sale. For context,…
Superheroes are a difficult genre to pin down in TTRPGs—game balance is basically impossible when you’re talking comic books, since having a cast of seriously varying power levels is part of the whole appeal. However, Masks—one of my favourite systems—nails it completely, and it’s also in Humble’s new RPG Bundle. This (up to) 27-item bundle…
“I’ve always admired bees, so I thought I’d build something that not only looks like a hive, but actually simulates one.” So says YouTube channel Full Stack Woodworking, which set out to build a desk that simulates a bee hive. A simple enough concept, but let’s just say this one spiralled a bit. And then…
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Tamriel Rebuilt is one of the most impressive mod projects of all time. Its quest is to build every part of The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind’s titular province that Bethesda didn’t get to, and it’s been doing that for literal decades. Earlier this year it released…
I already knew scalpers and the like probably weren’t the most reputable people on the internet—but I’ve just had that assessment re-affirmed, because they’re trying to grift game developer’s autographs now. That’s per a post by Yoko Taro, director of the Nier games, to X. Taro was shown an image of a signed copy of…
Chip manufacturing moving over to the US might seem like a 2025 phenomenon, thanks to the Trump administration’s very vocal pushing towards this goal, but TSMC, the world’s biggest computer chip manufacturer, approved production of its Arizona plant back in 2020. The US-based fabrication plant (fab) started churning out wafers last year, and it has…
I have come to commend what I can only describe as 8BitDo’s commitment to the bit. From the 8BitDo Retro keyboard and the Pro 3 gamepad, to the R8 gaming mouse sat under my palm, they all have a distinguished and unique look, but they’re so much more than a retro facade slapped on top…

N++ released as a PS4 exclusive in 2015 before hitting PC a year later. It’s a platformer focused on fluid, momentum-based motion through stylish one-screen levels, and I can’t recommend it enough: nothing else feels like this game. In my 92/100 review I practiced no restraint at all. “In some ways N++ feels like the…
