Writing for @BLASTtv. Mostly coherent thoughts over at Button Musher. Always ready to learn something new.

The second review in my Steaming The Deck series is about Furi, one of the best games I’ve played.

It is 1,99€ for Steam's Summer Sale, so don't waste any time and just go buy it. It is worth a lot more than a couple euros.

[Burn With Me 🔥 OUT NOW @NozomuGames]

I'll do a proper post on Monday with all my thoughts, but

I am at a loss for words. Thank you for such a support for our game 🔥

[Burn With Me 🔥 OUT NOW @NozomuGames]

Burn With Me is at 200 reviews 🔥

Thank you all so much for this immense support, we couldn't have predicted how good the launch would go!

[Burn With Me 🔥 OUT NOW @NozomuGames]

Burn With Me is out now!! 🔥

I can say a lot about our eerie narrative deckbuilder, but this release trailer speaks louder than words.

Here is the story of how Ed Kay “started tinkering” on an American McGee Pirate Jam, blissfully ignorant of the fact that he was beginning the process of creating a seven year old monster. Or, you know, how Demon Spore is being made.

@MonteCristo American studios aren't even able to compete with European ones anymore. Salaries and costs overall are much lower here, even in the UK and Germany and we keep having more hubs spread throughout the continent (Poland, France, Spain, now Turkey).

‘It’s been an honor’: I spoke with Sucker Punch boss @brian_fleming and lead Erika Ishii about their journey creating Ghost of Yotei, lessons learned, and what’s next.

Activision has pulled a Call of Duty game after multiple reports of PC players having their computers hacked. An old insecure version of the game was reportedly uploaded to the Microsoft Store 😬 https://t.co/yHMANcTAKy

My latest piece is the first entry in my Steaming The Deck column, a non-scheduled series where I cover neglected titles that have been collecting digital dust in my Steam library for far too long, using my recently purchased Steam Deck as a perfect excuse to finally play them.

My latest: All Quiet On The Rainbow Front... With June coming to an end I do wonder why so many esports organisations have forgotten about Pride Month. Could it be that there are some socio-economic factors at play?

Wrote a piece on how the impressive @TaintedGrail_AR won me over with a single dungeon.

Well done to GeoGuessr for taking this stance. The utter shame the rest of the competitive gaming space should feel as a result of this should be immeasurable but sadly they stopped being capable of shame some time ago.

@Rebellion Hey! Pre-purchased on Steam, can't play the game because it is a 277.67MB download. When I press play after installing it tells me I don't have the necessary files.

Last Free Nation now has a GAMING channel! What better way to launch than with a brand new game?!

@MonteCristo breaks down the just-announced @playwildgate with some gameplay involving myself, @proxywolf and @dGon !

[Last Free Nation @LastFreeNation]

Summoning Insight turned 10 this year! To celebrate, our lead editor @HouseAdanion has created a 26 minute "Best Of" video featuring some of the greatest moments of the show's history.

Enjoy these classic moments featuring @MonteCristo, @Thorin, and the many guests we've had!

To say I'm disappointed is an understatement. The punishment in a case like this should never depend on how far the team went in the tournament, it's the principle and the exploitation of rules that should matter.
