According to developer ConcernedApe, we’re not too far away from my yearly incentive to start a new farm in Stardew Valley. Update 1.5 for the farm and life simulation game is coming right along and is in the “home stretch” he says. ConcernedApe has been tossing out bits of info about what the update will

There is a new “sound beaming” device that allows users to listen to music without a single headphone in sight. While this may sound like the start of a sci-fi horror film about mind control (or a Doctor Who episode), the logistics of this creative device does sound intriguing.

Sony is no stranger to buddying up with celebrities to sell consoles, what with its recent partnership with Travis Scott.

Look, competitive Counter-Strike is nice and all, but on the 20th anniversary of v1.0 I do find myself consumed with dreams of a wholly different CS skill: surfing. It’s the freestyle skating to proper CS’s baseball, using a movement glitch to skid, glide, and soar through maps filled with abstract shapes. It is stylish as

Season of Arrivals in Destiny 2 is coming to a close ahead of the upcoming expansion Beyond Light. Out with the old and in with the new, but that doesn’t mean we can’t finish off the current season with a bang, and with a bang, it shall end with a new live event.  Upon the

In fact, there’s a good argument to make that TikTok ColorPick is the act of watching paint get wetter.

Scream-shot Saturday Sundays? Not on your unlife, pal, it’s November. Halloween’s over. I have no contractual obligation to be “spooky” today, so let’s fearlessly dive back into the well of Twitter’s favourite gamedev hashtag.

Video game films are largely regulated to pure adaptations of existing games. Once in a while, though, you get films like 1UP, which uses gaming as a backdrop to tell a more personable story.
