Stealth's been replaced with scrappy swordfighting in Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy, but what I really miss are the rat swarms(opens in new tab)
I've never mastered the combat of Sekiro and Sifu. They're games that demand you recognise an incoming attack and match it with millisecond perfect parries and dodges. Success sees you turn a foe's assaults against them, ducking under their swinging ...
Resident Evil Veronica is the remake I'm most excited about, because the original was such a mess(opens in new tab)
Of all the Resident Evil remakes to burst forth from Capcom like zombie-spawn in recent years, I am most intrigued by the just-unveiled Resident Evil Veronica. The original game, released in 2000 for sixth generation consoles, is an important entry ...

★ SwiftUI Only Makes It Easy to Develop Bad Apps(opens in new tab)
Apple’s developer message used to be that it was not just easy to develop apps for their platforms, but that it was easy to develop good idiomatically native apps. That’s still true for AppKit and UIKit, but it’s never been ...

It's hard to conceive of a nastier workplace than Mouthwashing's spaceship - that delirious, foam-clogged labyrinth of cracked sunsets and fire-freshness - but developers Wrong Organ are certainly upping the ante with their new game Carcass Clad. Announced just today, ...

Coding Is Designing(opens in new tab)
Code isn’t just a way to implement a design, it’s a way to find one. With an interface, you have to use it, feel it, interact with it, and poke at it to see the relationships between things. Change X, ...

What are we all playing this weekend?(opens in new tab)
Saturdays are for lying in bed and resting your sore typing fingers, muttering curses at Geoff Keighley under your breath. They're not particularly mean curses, I quite enjoy covering events like SGF. It's nice having a few hours where game ...
In pursuit of desirable difficulties(opens in new tab)
The psychologist Robert Bjork called them desirable difficulties. Learning sticks better when practice is made harder, rather than easier. Students who have to struggle to retrieve an answer remember it longer - and clearer - than students who are handed ...

Sprinter Van Phone Mount + Better CarPlay-Compatible Cable Situation(opens in new tab)
