Current Site-releated News

The general goal is to post a new review each week, though I may sometimes miss an update or two.

There are some other things that I'd like to provide information about. Some of it is technical, some theological, and some is just mildly interesting. In particular, I'd like to provide more information about VR and retro gaming.

Some of the games I've reviewed have continued to receive new content or have been changed in other ways, which means their reviews are out of date and don't reflect the game as it's experienced today. I'm planning on fixing this as soon as possible.

The glossary section could use some cleaning up, and I'd like to provide more information for certain entries. This will probably be an on-going project until mid-2025.

It's time for the long-awaited update! The review section has been overhauled, the first phase of the glossary revamp is complete, and a number of new pages about retro gaming have been added. From here, the next goal is to begin the second phase of the glossary revamp and begin publishing new reviews again, starting with a handful of DOS games.

In the near future, there will be sections for other classic systems, such as the NES and the Atari 2600. Hopefully I'll be able to get some other articles done soon too!

This isn't much of an update; more of a long overdue check-in to let everyone know what's been going on over the past few months.

Put simply, there have been a lot of things getting the way of updates - several games I was writing reviews for were abruptly delisted, for example. Other reviews have been taking forever, either because the game itself is extremely long, or because there's just a lot of stuff to cover. Adding to this, Thaddeus, my 10-year old gaming PC, developed hardware problems and was retired. Thaddeus' replacement, a much more powerful rig nicknamed Sebastian, took a while to break in.

On a positive note, the Glossary revamp is going better. I ended up having to span it over several phases rather than one big update, and the first phase is about 80% complete.

Now, the plan for the immediate future is to drastically overhaul the Retro game section, followed by a slew of retro game reviews and at least one PC game review. If we're lucky, this will also include the first version of the new Glossary. Keep your fingers crossed.

UPDATE IS NOW: the new review for this week is for a cute puzzle game called Baba is You. This is one game were words definitely hold a lot of power - and some fun challenges!

Time for a look at a great new free title: Jigsaw Puzzles Infinite! It has everything you'd want in a jigsaw game, and none of the advertisements that plague most free games!

I've just added a new review for Garden of the Sea, a cute and relaxing VR game about exploring islands and growing different types of crops.

Hello hello? Is this thing on? As you may have guessed, life ended up getting rather complicated in August and things didn't get resolved until about a week ago. This made it difficult to even play games, let alone write about them, so I'm more than a little behind at the moment. In the meantime, I've managed to finish and upload a review for Slime Rancher, a cute game about exploring a world filled with silly slimes!

Today's update is a little different than usual - instead of providing new reviews, I've expanded the types of games that are covered! These two new sections - one for retro games and one for VR games - will soon include their own articles and useful information in addition to the reviews that are already present. I've also done some minor tidying up behind the scenes to ensure that most of the site behaves correctly.

Today's update features a review for Spelunky, an extremely difficult platformer about exploring an ever changing cavern!

This week's update features a review for Painkiller: Black Edition as well as some small updates to older reviews and a weird bugfix to the website's scripts.

This week's review is for a flashy ball and paddle game called Shatter. It's a good example of a modern game that's simple and fun.
