'Few games capture the spirit of indie game development quite like VA-11 Hall-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action. What initially started out as a short game for a Cyberpunk Game Jam back in 2014, soon became a standout indie hit. VA-11 Hall-A delivers a heartfelt story of happiness in the depths of disaster, draped in a unique cyberpunk aesthetic and set to a distinctive synthwave soundtrack to match. It’s a truly remarkable visual novel, and the perfect choice for our Design Works range. Produced in collaboration with Sukeban Games and Ysbryd, VA-11 Hall-A: Design Works explores the corrupt metropolis of Glitch City, its culture, and the people who frequent the game’s beloved hole in the wall, VA-11 Hall-A. Written by talented journalist and author Ashley Schofield (Polygon, EDGE, Unwinnable and VGC), you’ll hear how this world came to be and the cyberpunk touchstones that inspired it — all the while lending insight into the history of Venezuela, where the team is located, and the unique challenges of developing a game there. VA-11 Hall-A: Design Works will be a celebration of this beautiful indie masterpiece, and the people that made it all possible. Alongside contemporary interviews with writer/programmer Fernando Damas and artist/designer Christopher Ortiz conducted exclusively for VA-11 Hall-A: Design Works, the book also features a collection of highlights from the ‘Daily VA-11 Hall-A’ blog posts directly from Sukeban.moe. You can also expect deep dives into the development of the game’s prototype and prologue; the bartending mechanics that put you in the shoes of disaster bisexual bartender Jill Stingray, and interviews exploring its iconic synthwave soundtrack/jukebox with composer Michael Kelly. VA-11 Hall-A: Design Works features detailed insight into the game’s early concepts and development, an exploration of Glitch City itself, and a deep dive into the programming, art and soundtrack — an unmissable read for any fan.' A magazine cover of Unwinnable Monthly #191, with the feature being my essay 'I Don't Want To Be This Kind of Animal Anymore' and art by Shafer Brown. An excerpt reads: In the dark times, should the stars also go out? 'Revachol is still. Silent. Decades of unrest, corruption and capital gain have reduced it to a shell of a city. And yet, under these sullen skies, a miracle is happening. The limbed and headed machine of pain and undignified suffering is firing up again.' My review of Hollow Knight: Silksong for Video Games Chronicle. 'Hollow Knight: Silksong review: A game that intends to make you suffer, even to its own detriment. Team Cherry’s sequel has a clear mission statement, but doesn’t seem to consider the consequences. 3/5 stars.' My review of Demonschool for Rock Paper Shotgun, included in RPS' Bestest Bests category. 'Demonschool review Saturday morning carcasses.'

and a couple more highlights, while i have you reading 💜

please reach out! i'd love to work together 💜
My opinion feature for GamesRadar+. 'Metroid Prime has been making gamers love reading since 2002. Opinion | Nintendo's book smart bounty hunter proves that showing is better than telling' My feature for Polygon on the TV series Like a Dragon: Yakuza. 'What does Like a Dragon: Yakuza lose when you take out the games’ surreal humor? Without wacky substories, goofy side content, and Kiryu singing karaoke, you can still have a damn good crime drama' My opinion feature for Skybox Critics on Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio's hypocritical casting decisions. 'Hamazaki Has To Goh – where does Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio draw the line on casting, and why is it not at sexual assault?' My review of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth for PCGamesN. 'Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth review - an expansive RPG epic The second journey of one dragon and the final chapter of another, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is Ryu Ga Gotoku's best game to date. Verdict: PCGamesN 9/10 Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is the end result of two decades of iteration from Ryu Ga Gotoku and the studio's best game yet. Sprawling but never bloated, it remains captivating from beginning to end across both its main narrative and bountiful side adventures, almost never missing a beat.'

What the fuck, this is a music video from a sonic exe creepypasta called lord X where he is singing, this is both very stupid to make a demonic entity based on sonic be a singer BUT AT THE SAME TIME it's kinda beautiful and slaps holy. I WAS NOT AWARE OF YOUR GAME

this game is actually hell, like for making 9-11-12th you lose maybe 1 or 2 points so I thought you are kinda tilt free from ranking progression until i got a second place that put me at 999 points, 1 point away from rank up and my next 3 race I get 10-9-10th putting me back 3 points, I'm losing it

Sonic racing crossworld is the most toxic online racing game i have seen and it has 0 form of messaging or voice chat. You create ennemies for life on the race track. people are either trying to make yo ufall of the course by pushign you in the void themselves sometimes the items just feel personnal
