The popularity of manhwa as a medium has surged in recent years, and this trend shows no signs of slowing down as its accessibility increases. One prevalent theme among modern manhwa is the incorporation of tower climbing. While there are numerous available tower climbing manhwa, some are simply not as good as others. As the name implies, the trope revolves around climbing a mystical tower, which is often referred to as simply The Tower....
Two decades of art and insight into Double Fine Productions I kind of can’t believe Double Fine has been around for 20 years. Where were you when you first heard aboutPsychonauts? At this point, I’m not even sure – but maybe a slick art book will jog my memory. In collaboration with Indie By Design, Double Fine Productions is coming out with20 Double Fine Years, a history-recapping art book “with over 280 pages of commentary, concept art, and key visuals....
May as well be using harsh language Gearbox Software has releasedthree big launch patchesfor all versions ofAliens: Colonial Marines, with a laundry list of improvements. If you’re hoping the patch fixes all the issues that netted the game its current44/100 Metacritic score, don’t hold your breath — certainly nothingIdisliked about the game’s been fixed. Still, the game’s had a mass of glitches and problems stitched up and glued together. Doors now open properly, the game now knows you’re not playing the campaign when you’re not playing the campaign, you will no longer get stuck in a quick-time-event close encounter once it’s over, and many other things!...
Apogee, Julian Creutz, and Skydevilpalmhave releasedthe latest Early Access update for their legally distinctZelda-like dungeon creator,Quest Master. Alongside the update, they’ve given a release window for the 1.0 version. you’re able to expect to see it leave Early Access sometime in Spring 2025. It’s been a busy year, so whileQuest Masterfirst hit Early Access this past May, I haven’t been able to really take a closer look. As mentioned above, it’s a game that lets you create your own dungeons, with a style that looks suspiciously likeThe Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, which, as I’m sure you’re aware, was a very good time for dungeons....
So far, I’ve enjoyed everything I’ve played ofSonic Generations, which has only made me suspicious. I was trying to work out what the “catch” was, and news from SEGA has finally revealed it … Silver the c*nting Hedgehog is a confirmed “rival” character. Making his debut in the awfulSonic 2006game, Silver is a hedgehog from the future with telekinetic powers. He’s an incredibly crap character that should die along with all the other crap Sonic characters....
There’s a particular point in this week’s BBL that I’m going to say now, because I’ll invariably get kicked in the face for saying so — let’s get the face-kickin’ out of the way as quick as possible. I hold firm the belief that this week’s selection,Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, is the bestMarioRPG ever made, even over series grandpappySuper Mario RPG. It’s a weighty claim, but one that I make with the sort of conviction usually reserved for only themightiestof bribes — which reminds me, Nintendo, just leave the check under the doormat....
Damn, I wanted one of the new X-Wings While it would already seem like EA missed the boat if they were planning on adding anything based onThe Force AwakenstoBattlefront, a recent tweet put the final nail in that space coffin. Responding to a Twitter user asking if there would be anyTFADLC, the official@EAStarWarsaccount replied with a fairly clear “no.” @ninjachris404Our team is focusing on the original trilogy for this release of Star Wars Battlefront....
Box office round up Who knew that what the people really wanted were drama-filled musicals? This weekend showed that evidently what we’ve all actually been craving are films filled with great songs and big emotional moments asBohemian Rhapsodydestroyed expectations with a $50 million box office andA Star is Bornonly dipped 21 percent with $11.1 million. Those are outstanding numbers for a style of film that usually gets left in the dust this time of year....
I am a poet I’m fighting the urge to do the lazy blogger “if X and Y had a baby” thing, but I don’t know if I can help myself.Crashlandslooks like what would happen if The Behemoth (BattleBlock Theater) were to develop Klei Entertainment’sDon’t Starve. There, I said it. I hope you don’t think less of me now. Indeed, the trailer above for the upcoming open-world survival game feels like it’s trying to emulate the boisterous performance and sharp cartoon artwork of The Behemoth....
