Games Are Allowed to End
PEAK has had its final major update. That doesn’t mean it is abandonware.
#oneaday Day 813: That sure was a big walk
We finished Big Walk this evening. It was excellent! I am going to share some spoilers after the image, so consider yourself warned. If you would like to read something not spoileriffic about Big Walk, may I direct you to the article I wrote about it here? Thank you. One of the things Big Walk...
Laysara: Summit Kingdom Launches Physical and Collector’s Editions Worldwide on PS5 & Switch
PILSEN, Czech Republic — Let’s be real for a second: modern physical game releases have become a total joke. Half the time, you drive to a retail store, hand over your hard-earned money, and open up a plastic case only to find a cheap paper slip with a digital download code printed on it. It […]
#4 | Video Games - The 2026 Release Window
Because of the work I do over on Bluesky posting about indie games, I keep a running list of upcoming games. The list includes release dates if I know them, but most of the games have a vague release window. And when I say vague I mean this: Looking at my spreadsheet right now, there are 23 titles that are scheduled to release this year so I would like to highlight 6 that I personally hope come out this year.

I have somehow made time to complete 14 games so far this year so its time to run them down listicle-style. JANUARY
#2 | Video Games - Indie Game Fest
Today is June 9th, 2026 which means the passed weekend was Summer Game Fest. For those like me who keep an eye on video games announcements and releases, that means more showcases than one person could reasonably keep up with. Even though a lot of the shine of big game announcements has worn away by trailer sameness (is that word?), its still very exciting to see what devs in the indie scene are cooking. To that end, here are 18 games that piqued my interest. I assembled this list from the showc...
