A Game About Feeding A Black Hole, out today, is exactly what it proclaims to be, and surprisingly tranquil

I do not know if a black hole is something we should feed. Ostensibly they are things (anti-things? I'm not a black holeologist) that I would like to be far away from, given what I've heard. And yet here I am, having tinkered around with the demo for A Game About Feeding A Black Hole, which is a game about feeding a black hole, left with the feeling that this is not only a thing I can do, but find tranquility in.

Silent Hill f writer Ryukishi07 shares what he hopes you learn from his take on the horror series

That month is March, 2026, which I'm assuming has been chosen so that PlayStation manage to release one of their many promised but mostly cancelled live service games before the tax year wraps up.

Shadowrun devs' survival body horror Graft gets a gameplay trailer filled with fleshy delights

If this is a single flavour of genre that, if you put a gun to my head and forced me to pick a favourite, I would say is my favourite, it's probably body horror. There are a seemingly infinite amount of ways to project images of devolving flesh and altered bodies into your eyeballs, many of which I find strangely relatable, occasionally comforting. Graft, the next game from the studio behind Battletech and the Shadowrun series, does none of that for me, but its first gameplay trailer successfu

Ah yes, here's Megabonk's Halloween update, just in time for Christmas

Who's that I hear coming down my chimney? Why, it's… Megabonk's "Spooky" update? No, that doesn't sound quite right to me either, and yet it is in fact the truth of this world. As you've probably already gathered by the name of the update, this is one that was meant to be out for Halloween, but developer Vedinad needed a touch more time for it. Read more
