A duo of former NISA employees have broken away to live the indie dream, and have formed Mr. Tired Media. After diligently working away on getting its first game up to a state where it can show it off, the new studio has taken to Kickstarter to fund Undead Darlings…
Read MoreSome news from late last week you might have missed: Nippon Ichi America has announced a formal release date for Disgaea 5: Alliance of Vengeance. It lands in America on October 6 and Europe/ Australia three days later. It’s a PlayStation 4 exclusive, and should more than scratch the itch…
Read MoreI love games that use satire to make some social commentary. No Pineapple Left Behind is certainly shaping up to be one of those games. It has been developed by Seth Alter, a former educator turned developer, and while the game is nominally a simulation/ strategy game in which you…
