The original goal was set at $200,000, and appears to have been somewhat successful. As of this writing, the crowdfunding campaign has surpassed the $2 million mark, and the number is still climbing. Yikes. The campaign has soared past the initial target and also a majority of stretch goals, which will add an army of extra playing pieces including character tokens, monsters and boss battles....

Promoted from our Community Blogs I am a man in love. With metal. Show me an album with extravagant lyrics, majestic singing, and properly tuned instrumentation and I’ll be a happy camper for a good spell.

From there, we follow this unfortunate itinerate as they travel through the tiled complex, passing by an ominous pile of smiley-faced beach balls before arriving in “Eternal Suburbia,” an endless plain of grassy hills dotted with empty bungalows....

Here’s what you need to do aftershutting down the game completely: Frankly, the added AA doesn’t lookbrilliant, but it’s better, at least. Some people claim that enabling AA can lead to other graphical glitches, so do ensure you back the file up if you test it out....

Another week, another forgotten game. This week’s entry is a cyberpunk point-and-click adventure that goes by the unfortunate acronym of “BASS”:Beneath a Steel Sky. In 1994, Virgin Interactive attempted to combine dystopian literature, cartoonish humor, Dave Gibbon illustrations and a future noir aesthetic into one big point-and-click quest for truth and justice in a world gone mad. A cyberpunk feast of humor and philsophy. But did they succeed? Is it any good?...
