ATARI VCS Pre-Sale Begins May 30th
We’ve covered the initial announcement and naming of the new ATARI VCS™ console, but Atari has now confirmed an official pre-sale date and location. Indiegogo will be the exclusive location for gamers to put in their pre-orders for the new console.
Dungeon Stars PAX Preview
One of the other games that caught my eye at PAX East was Dungeon Stars, a new Roguelite (or is that Roguelike-like?) from indie developer and publisher Furnace Games and Riposte Games & Co.
Trailmakers PAX East Preview
When we last covered Trailmakers here on Marooners’ Rock, it was for the game’s initial rollout on Steam Early Access. With its subsequent inclusion in the Indie Megabooth’s 100 games at PAX East, I was able to get some hands-on time with the game and chat for a few minutes with a couple of the developers from Flashbulb Games.
Destination Primus Vita PAX Preview and Writer’s Choice Award Winner
A little bit of Myst, a dash of System Shock, a slice of life in cryosleep on the USCSS Nostromo, and a hearty helping of The Expanse. That’s how I would describe Destination Primus Vita, the science fiction first-person mystery series being developed by Epsilon Games.
Official DEADPOOL Headstand by Numskull Designs Revealed
All right Deadpool fans, it’s time for some real talk. Your desk is missing something. Your headphones are probably resting somewhere on your desk, in a position that stretches out the wires and makes them more prone to break. What’s that, you say? You have a fancy headphone hook?

Double Kick Heroes PAX East Preview
If Guitar Hero spawned a side-scrolling arcade shooter about killing zombies with sick guitar riffs, the result would probably come out similarly to Double Kick Heroes, only with guitars instead of drums. However, since killing zombie hordes with machine guns powered by drums is an awesome idea, and crafting a new heavy metal soundtrack to play those drums to is an even more awesome idea, PC gamer...[Read More]
Yuppie Psycho – PAX East Preview and Writer’s Choice Winner
It’s a feeling almost everyone can relate to: walking for the first day of work at the first big job, and feeling woefully underqualified and underprepared. But what if you really were totally underqualified, and your job description turned out to be something straight out of an X-Files episode? Yuppie Psycho pitches that question, melding together a rich blend of office comedy, retro graphics, an...[Read More]
Ion Maiden – PAX East Preview and Writer’s Choice Winner
“What if Quake and the last twenty years of FPS evolution never happened, and we were still making games the same way we made Duke Nukem 3D and Shadow Warrior back in the Nineties?” was the question that one of the guys at the 3D Realms booth said drove the development of Ion Maiden. Much more than another retro-inspired FPS, Ion Maiden comes from a legendary studio and resurrects an equally legen...[Read More]
PAX East Interview – Luke Woodham and Theo Thomas Discuss Castrol EDGE Titanium Gamer
Just a few days before PAX East started, Castrol EDGE and Electronic Arts teamed up for a unique challenge inspired by Need for Speed Payback.
