This is partially due to the horrendous acts seen in WW2 that we are sadly seeing repeated today. Acts such as genocide, an increase in the wage gap, human rights violations, and war crimes are sadly reoccurring. But it is impor...[Read More]

Look for...[Read More]

While over the years since we’ve had PAX Online events along with the most recent PAX West 2021. Fast forward to 2022 and we’re a little over a month away from PAX East 2022. Personally, I can’t wait to go, as I do miss seeing indie games in person and the hard work both big and small developers have poured into their games. Most recently, PAX announced some great news which incl...[Read More]

While we’re just a month away from PAX East 2022, some event details from some groups have been announced....[Read More]

During my time there, I typically covered AAA titles and my only experience with Indie games was rather limited; in fact, I had only tried three indie games, Don’t Die! Dateless Dummy, Too Many Girls to Li...[Read More]
