Burning question I have: Did Americans know about Moomin before all that merch showed up at Barnes and Noble?

Yeah thatโ€™s because in science fiction the AI/robots have emotions or souls or are part human. Fucking chat GPT is a fancy autocorrect

No unfortunately! The full game is definitely coming on the Switch but the demo is PC only, and itโ€™s only going to be up for a limited time.

Friends, the Goodnight Universe demo is out now and Iโ€™d love it if every single person reading this plays it and wishlists it on Steam. Itโ€™d be soooo fire if you did that.

I'm 20+ hours into Silksong, awesome game, but this is a great and (imo) brave review because you just KNOW so many people will be pissed over a 3 out of 5 score that is (rightfully) focused on the unsatisfying ways Silksong often creates difficulty.

Game folks visiting LA for SGF and posting about the anti-ICE protests like theyโ€™re some weird, scary inconvenience is pretty fucking tasteless
