Have you ever wanted to shoot things from a space craft AND sing Call Me Maybe at the same time? It wasn’t until recently I found out I indeed HAVE had that need, which is why I am reviewing Symphony by Empty Clip Studios. Symphony took home two awards from the Indie Game Challenge, and from what I gathered from the one screenshot I saw, was that it was a game about music somehow, and looked like an arcade-style shooter – apparently I am a very good journalist. So I...
Sony Online Entertainment has been busy working with gamers on the BETA of the newest Free to Play First-Person Shooter, Bullet Run. The wait for release is over, and you can now download and play Bullet Run for free. This game seems to propagate an interesting take on the near-future gameshow style which has been done so many times before. Smash T.V., Fatal Rewind, and Monday Night Combat have all tried the same kind of setting and have invariably met with great success...
You know the old adage: “Keep your profit margins close, but your mad scientists even closer.” It is disobeying this universal law of science fiction corporate empires which created a mind brilliant and malicious enough to attempt the destruction of everything good which he has brought to the world. A world which hinges on technology to stay convenient and luxurious should never be allowed to become susceptible to.. A Virus. That, dear readers, is exactly what...
Magrunner: Dark Pulse, a Lovecraftian 3D spacial-puzzle game in the vein of Portal has hit 80% funding on GamesPlanet Lab. 3AM Games still have about a month before the end of their funding cycle, so that’s a very positive thing.

In celebration of this milestone, there is a new developer’s update video detailing one of the levels you’ll be seeing in-game and clearing up some issues regarding...
In this episode of Torchlight, we play around with enchantments, speak musically about mortality, and face The Overseer! Also, Normal difficulty is apparently Easy Mode for this game. To the mines!
Today we discover a new kind of portal, look vainly for enemies, and then slaughter wave after wave of enemies. Inconsistent flow of baddies, anyone? To the mines!
Smudged Cat’s little 8-bit style puzzle platformer asks the question that few people dare: “What if portals had different properties?” Inspired by the Valve hit, Portal, Gateways plops an ingenious scientist in the midst of his own perilous lab. Taking yet more inspiration from Metroid and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, the world is large and complex. Full of secrets and complexity, Gateways is a must have if you’re into old-school games. Even if...
In this episode, we make the walking dead.. more dead, mysterious mapscrolls open up new possibilities for dungeon crawling, and Raven has trouble climbing stairs. We aren’t all perfect, OK? To the mines!
Ys Origin is frenetic, often strategic, and nothing if not difficult: A true console dungeon crawl to make your father proud. But wait.. Isn't this game a PC exclusive?
