- Croteam's anniversary Steam sale includes a bargain bin VR bundle - 19 June 2019
Here’s one for the space-goggles crowd to jump on.

- Co-op arcade roguelite Heroes of Hammerwatch out now - 1 March 2018
‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ is a decent enough motto to live by. Crackshell would most likely agree, having found a respectable degree of success with Gauntlet-esque co-op arcade dungeon crawler Hammerwatch , and more Smash TV-ish licensed spinoff Serious Sam’s Bogus Detour . While their little trip through techno-magical Egypt with Serious Sam was an amusing enough romp, they’re back doing what they know and love, with a bit of a modern procedurally generated twist. Heroes of Hammerwatch bills itself as a rogue-like spin on the original, and it’s out today. (more…)

- SeriousMOD Competition with ModDB - 28 June 2017
Modders, it's time to get serious. Crackshell and Devolver Digital have teamed up with ModDB to give you a chance to get your mod featured in the official release of the game! That is of course - if you are serious enough and I can guarantee that isn't the last pun you will see here. So what's the challenge? Make something seriously awesome (told you). You can make a custom campaign, a horde mode style map or even Serious Sam inspired art, whatever you want - it's entirely upto you. So there must be some serious prizes right? Right you are. First place mod gets eternal fame and a whole bundle of cash, second place walks away with a 1080 NVIDIA GPU and 3rd place gets some Logitech gear. The next 20 best mods and art submitted take home a SERIOUS SAM digital game pack, so it's unlikely any serious competitor will leave empty handed. We want you to create either a mod for Serious Sam Bogus…

- Bang bang! Serious Sam s Bogus Detour released - 21 June 2017
Devolver Digital and Croteam are continuing their experiments in throwing the Serious Sam name at small teams on condition that the resultant game in some way includes: 1) sand; 2) big guns; 3) screaming shirtless men with bombs for hands. This has previously given us such games as the gun-stacking side-scroller Double D and turn-based RPG The Random Encounter . Now Crackshell, the makers of Hammerwatch , have expanded that odd lineup with Serious Sam’s Bogus Detour . It’s a top-down shooter with four-player online co-op and, of course, sand, big guns, and screaming shirtless men with bombs for hands. …

- Serious Sam s Bogus Detour is already great before it s even finished - 18 April 2017
Croatian developers Croteam have proven themselves a developer of two extremes. For many years they were about dumbfest shooter fun Serious Sam and Serious Sam alone, and then out of absolutely nowhere produced the cerebral and utterly brilliant The Talos Principle. Since then we’ve had a splendid expansion for Talos and a frankly peculiar number of Serious Sam VR games. Now comes Serious Sam’s Bogus Detour , a rather brilliantly titled game resulting from a team-up with indie devs Crackshell, that fits in neither extreme, despite being entrenched in the IP of their most famous protagonist. A top-down twin-stick action game that eschews all the modern stylings of your Hotline Miamis in favour of something much more madcap, frenzied and enormous. …
