• The founders of Playdead are having a legal war over who made more of Limbo - 19 June 2025

  Many moons ago, Danish developers Playdead released bleak platformer Limbo and proved beyond reasonable doubt that Gamez R Art, while also giving a bunch of witless scriveners massive arachnophobia. Today, we learn that one of the studio's co-founders, Arnt Jensen, is suing the other, Dino Patti, amid competing claims about the scale of his contribution to Limbo. Because of course all great things must end in calamity. Read more

• Torchlight currently free on Epic Store, Age of Wonders 3 free on Steam - 12 July 2019

  It's Friday, which means the weekend, which means a few extra hours to be wrung of all their gaming worth (unless you have other plans, but that's totally okay too). However, should you find yourself inexplicably game-less as all that additional play time stretches ahead of you like an endless road 'neath a moonlight sky, you might like to know that Torchlight is currently free on the Epic Games Store, while Age of Wonders 3 is free on Steam. Torchlight is, of course, the first entry in (sadly now defunct) developer Runic Games' two-strong series of superb fantasy-themed action RPGs. Given that Runic was established by Max Schaefer and Erich Schaefer, founders of Blizzard North, and Mythos designer Travis Baldree, it's not a huge surprise that Torchlight wears its Diablo influences proudly on its sleeve. But its a wonderful example of the genre (and its sequel is even better, should you…

• Playdead's been hiding images of its next game in job listings - 7 July 2019

  The studio behind WTF-y puzzle-platformers Inside and Limbo, Playdead, has been secreting screenshots of its next project within its job posting advertisements. While it may seem as though Playdead hasn't shared anything concrete beyond a solitary image shared on Twitter way back at the beginning of January 2017 - and then one more in March 2018 - turns out we might just have been looking in the wrong place. A number of screens from a game that we know don't come from either of Playdead's prior releases have been included inside online job listings, and while some were clocked by Resetera a few months back , a couple more have since popped up (thanks, PC Gamer ).

• What developers think of Xbox Game Pass - 5 July 2019

  Subscription gaming services such as Xbox Game Pass, EA Access and PlayStation Now have become a good deal for players - or at least, a good way of ensuring you never reach the bottom of your pile of shame. As this year's E3 festivities made plain, they are now central to platform holder strategy , with Microsoft releasing all its first-party titles on Game Pass, and Google Stadia to ship with its own, currently rather meagre subscription game service . But are they always a fair deal for developers? The details of these partnerships remain closely guarded, but in a panel discussion at Gamelab last week hosted by GamesIndustry.biz editor-in-chief Matt Handrahan, some of the people behind Crusader Kings, Rime, Q.U.B.E. and Inside offered broad thoughts on Xbox Game Pass in particular. "Consumers want as many games as possible, as free as possible, and you can't get anything for free, so…

• This New Game from the Lead Designer of Limbo Pops with Color - 14 February 2013

  Ingenious puzzles and a chilling black-and-white aesthetic helped make 2011's Limbo a critically acclaimed hit. Now, the guy who crafted much of that indie success' gameplay has something new coming out, a stripped-down platformer called 140 that's exploding with rainbow hues. The stark minimalism of Limbo is in evidence here but Jeppe Carlsen's new game also adds a rhythm element that seems to be a key part of the game's mechanics, too. 140 is due out for PC sometime soon. Limbo puzzle designer's pet project, 140, is a polychromatic, pulsing platformer
