Second Wind

We're also on Bluesky! From the former team at The Escapist, we're rising from the ashes at Second Wind.

[Nick Calandra @nickjcal]

The Second Wind Games Showcase is happening on April 23, 2026 at 4 PM ET / 1 PM PT!

Built a fantastic line up of games including a number of world premieres.

We'll see you there.

I wrote at @SecondWindGroup about the broken systems of Kathryn Bigelow’s “A House of Dynamite.”

It’s film about the decline of the delicate systems that have maintained American (and global equilibrium) since the end of the Second World War.

I wrote for @SecondWindGroup about how #Andor is, for me, the purest distillation of what makes #StarWars special.

It's about the invisible forces that bind us together, about how small acts of heroism can change the world, and... hope.

This week's episode of Design Delve from @JM8andLudo breaks down why games having too much content can ruin an otherwise good experience.

Presented by @GameMakerEngine.

It's probably a good idea to stay clear of anything related to Dreadmoor.

A pre-rendered trailer meant to mimic gameplay and remind you of Dredge, a very suspicious development team... and a heck of a lot of similarities to how The Day Before was handled.

Bungie is finally revealing Marathon this weekend, Titanfall 3 still isn't happening (c'mon EA), and Blue Prince came out of nowhere to be the highest rated game of the year (so far!).

I just watched a near final edit of the upcoming Animal Well Documentary that @SecondWindGroup has been working on. It turned out amazing! I can't wait for everyone to see it. https://t.co/Q9Vw3OmulI

Second Wind is officially moving over to the other blue app. All of our future content updates can be found there, Patreon, YouTube or our Discord.

In the meantime, we're excited to finally share that Adventure is Nigh - Season 4 is premiering this month AND Fully Ramblomatic is now available on podcast platforms!

Every episode, the compilation, and every new episode going forward will be released in audio format alongside the video version.

It is a career HONOUR to have our game, Eternal Strands, covered (ripped apart) by Yahtzee from @SecondWindGroup and then find out HE LIKED THE GAME. 🤯

Excuse me while I go yell happy profanities out the window - time to make more freaking art!! 😍💛

[Second Wind @SecondWindGroup]

If we haven't convinced you to join the Patreon yet... maybe this will.

For our $5 Value Tier in which you get an exclusive experimental video every month from one of our creators... this month we bring you Yahtzee reading the Kingdom Hearts lore.

Something you never knew you needed...
