It’s time for the October issue of the Indie Game Magazine! While we don’t have too many tricks up our sleeve for all the costumed, candy-seeking kids out there, we do have some treats this..
When you go to sleep, there are a lot of different things that happen: Your body slows down all of its metabolic processes, your brain flushes harmful neurotoxins out of its system, and a miniature..
Yup, that’s a pug in a witch costume. No, I will not be playing anything else today besides Dogforce: Seasons. Cut Garnet Games released something special on itch.io a little while ago. Dogforce: Seasons is..
Before Nintendo’s glasses-free 3D, or the “Real-D 3D” or whatever the new movie 3D is called, we all dealt with the dreaded red and blue 3D glasses. If you somehow avoided this fad, 3D glasses..
I typically shy away from mutliplayer games these days. I don’t have time to play much of anything, but when I do, I prefer to be immersed in the game’s world with as few distractions..

Set deep within ancient Egyptian tombs, Light in the Dark might make many of you think back to films like The Mummy or The Mummy Returns. While I didn’t see Imhotep anywhere during my playthrough, it did feel about as..

For the past few weeks, everyone’s been buzzing about The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. Before you go checking milk cartons, that’s the name of a game, not a real-life missing person’s case. Anyway, Ethan Carter..
