This Bowser’s Fury mod makes the floor lava

Solo Dev Makes Game Entirely From Paper-Drawn Assets
It was already impressive enough to me that there are people out there who can draw as well as they do.

Project Wingman makes air-to-air combat thrills as accessible as Call of Duty

Xbox Series X finally makes HDR simple and awesome
Until this month, I had lost faith in the value of HDR in video games. It felt like when I look at a Magic Eye, and everybody else sees a beautiful picture of a boat and I just see a bunch of fuzz. Was HDR a practical joke against me? Here’s a quick refresher on […]
Sony Makes A Big PS5 Change In Japan, Swapping The Circle And X Buttons' Functions
If you’ve ever played the Japanese version of a PlayStation game–or many games in the PS1’s library, including Metal Gear Solid–you were likely surprised to find that the menu buttons were reversed from normal. That’s because in Japan, the function of the X and Circle buttons are usually flipped, meaning that Circle confirms or selects, […]
