Just Cause and Samson: A Tyndalston Story Creator Calls Out "Desperate, Cowardly, Confused" State of the Video Game Industry Just Cause and Samson: A Tyndalston Story creator Christofer Sundberg calls out the state of the video game industry.

As for those hot takes, Sundberg pretty much nails it when calling out how "risk averse" the industry is, which is the generous version of the words Sundberg used wccftech.com/just-cause-s...

Samson: A Tyndalston Story Interview - Former Mad Max and Just Cause Devs Sink Into New AA Brawler That's "Not GTA" Check out our interview with Samson: A Tyndalston Story's creative director, Christofer Sundberg and senior game designer, Donald Young.

Alongside my preview of the game, I also got to speak with Liquid Swords studio founder Christofer Sundberg and the game's mission designer, Donald Young. They dug further into what they mean by "intensity over scale" and also shared some hot takes on the industry wccftech.com/samson-a-tyn...

Samson: A Tyndalston Story Hands-On Preview - A Grounded Brawler Looking to Deliver "Intensity Over Scale" Check out our hands-on preview of Samson: A Tyndalston Story, the debut game from Liquid Swords that'll be out on PC in April 2026.

I've had 90s action movies on the mind for the past week, but not because I've been watching a bunch of them, because last week I checked out Samson: A Tyndalston Story from Liquid Swords, a AA, "intensity over scale" 90s-era action game wccftech.com/samson-a-tyn...

Cool, but this is also right on time to try and distract people from the major studio closure that happened *checks notes* five days ago.

The Eternal Life of Goldman on Steam In this breathtaking platformer adventure, explore a vast hand-drawn Archipelago, inspired by ancient fables and depicted in classic frame-by-frame animation, and defeat a mysterious Deity.

I also have to give a huge shout out to The Eternal Life of Goldman, which might just be one of the most beautifully animated games I've ever seen store.steampowered.com/app/2254950/...

Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss on Steam A mining station in the Pacific abyss is no longer responding. As an investigator of the occult, unravel the mysteries of the deep. Test your wits and sanity in this thriller inspired by the master of...

Shifting away from platformers for a min, Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss is a game I've had my eye on a lot as I've covered a bit of news around it here and there, but I was really intrigued when playing it by the investigation and puzzle mechanics store.steampowered.com/app/2760560/...

Croak on Steam CROAK is a fast-paced platformer where your tongue grapple is your ultimate tool. Pinball your frog through constantly shifting environments. Jump into chaotic battles against goofy, over-the-top boss...

Some games on my list that I want to give an extra shout-out to: You'll notice this is a platformer-heavy list (I love jumping, what can I say) and while not all of the platformers I played made the cut, Croak is probably my favourite out of what I played store.steampowered.com/app/2616540/...

As promised, my list of recommended Steam Next Fest demos is here! Thank you to all the PR peeps who sent me a demo to check out ahead of the fest; it really helped me get organized so I could have this list up asap. wccftech.com/steam-next-f...

Coming into this without any ZA/UM baggage beyond what PMG has taught me, I wouldn't be comparing this to Disco Elysium. I just wanted to see if it was telling a compelling story with interesting gameplay.

So far, the answer to that question is 'yes.' Now if only they could re-record a bunch of VO

Zero Parades: For Dead Spies Hands-On Preview - Tinker Tailor ZA/UM Spy Check out our hands-on preview of Zero Parades: For Dead Spies, the first new game from ZA/UM after Disco Elysium.

The first Steam Next Fest of 2026 will kick off in a few hours, and while I'll have a list of demos to check out coming tomorrow, one game I got to play ahead of the festival is ZA/UM's Zero Parades: For Dead Spies. wccftech.com/zero-parades...

Well that was depressing. Hellybuck stole that win for them, we just couldn’t finish.

Love our guys so much, they were the better team all the way. 🇨🇦

You know, you should be a writer or something 😉

My solace is that they're tears of pride - can't imagine being disappointed in this team, they gave it everything they had

Alright, with the Women's tourny done, a PSA for my US friends: I have no prob with ya'll celebrating this win, the Women's teams have class players on both sides and I get you're rooting for your home country

But I will absolutely judge you for supporting the Tchukclefucks if we meet on Sunday

That's heartbreaking. So much love for the Canadian Women's team, they absolutely played their hearts out. MPP deserved to go out with gold

You are not going to make the next Fortnite or Overwatch or Destiny or Apex Legends. You are going to make the next game that is going to get crushed by Fortnite and Overwatch and Destiny and Apex Legends. The next footnote. You will waste hundreds of millions of dollars to be publicly humiliated.

Ofc, it's not just Hulst at fault here, this is partly on Jim Ryan's fucking idiotic live service push, but at least he had the sense to get lost

Has to be one of the worst mismanagement stories in the history of the video game industry. Hang em up Hulst, if you can't manage studios with talent like what Bluepoint has, you shouldn't be anywhere near the decision making

Confirmed: the Women's IIHF refs can count

Thinking about @cahndlerby.bsky.social, not how Sweden’s tournament should’ve ended!

I have full confidence you will! I watch Nylander make clutch plays all the time, I have a feeling he has some coming today

The best game of the tournament by far. Marner with an incredible goal, Binnington with some incredible saves, Czechia played so well that I truly believed for a moment that we were about to lose, but we pulled through - now onto the semi-finals

Atomic Arcade, the Studio Behind Hasbro's Big-Budget G.I. Joe Snake Eyes Game has Reportedly Been Shut Down Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast have reportedly shut down the studio behind its big-budget G.I. Joe Snake Eyes game, Atomic Arcade.

If anyone was looking forward to that G.I. Joe Snake Eyes game, sorry to say that it seems to be hanging on by a thread

Oh for sure! I saw a quote from a France player saying they didn't care that the other teams probably don't have a lot of respect for them, which I get is a tough spot to be in and could also drive you to play hard, but you don't gain respect with hits like that

Fair enough, but for me it's tough to feel bad when they're dishing out hits to the head like that. Sucks that Wilson got in the middle of it and now likely has a game misconduct but come on, you shouldn't be doing stuff you know could just injure someone and end their olympic run

What a show from Canada today

5-0 win over Finland for the Women's Team

5-0 win over Czechia for the Men's Team

You love to see it 🇨🇦

Another solid outing for Canada today, great win, and hope that Poulin can be back at full strength for tomorrow's game against the US

It was also crazy that we had 40+ shots on net and the Swiss had 6 I think by the end of the game? They were all great chances but still, a pretty wild differential

Poulin didn’t add to the lead but we got it done, a decisive 4-0 victory, great first game for Canada’s Women’s team, let’s get the next one 🇨🇦
