Brilliant article. The 11Bit bunch are fantastic.
11-Bit Studios says its publishing arm accounts for a "substantial chunk" of its revenue - although it passed on a few titles that became big hits. "Would I love to have Cult of the Lamb in our portfolio now? Quite possibly!"

Huh, interesting! If you've got either STALKER 1 or 2 in your GOG account, you can now download a fully standalone version of STALKER GAMMA.
This is notable because GAMMA is a gigantic community mod-pack/expansion for Anomaly, which in turn is a gigantic standalone fangame/community mod-pack.

Lovely review - straight on the wishlist

Kowloon Walled City in Minecraft is a feat of virtual architecture, but it's missing one crucial ingredient.
