With work on Stardew Valley and its 1.7 update underway, rumors of what it might harbor – aside from the already revealed two new marriage candidates – have been floating about.According to creator Eric “ConcernedApe” Barone, though, absolutely none of the online speculation is true… or, at least, there are no genuine “leaks” regarding 1.7. He says as much in a new post, writing, “Any claims that there are ‘leaks’ of 1.7 content are fake. There are no leaks.” It’s a blow to hopeful fans’ hearts, apparently, as many were holding out for features they had seen folks discussing on…

Humble Bundle is clearly in a generous mood right now. As part of its ongoing 15th anniversary celebrations, a brand new deal has dropped, offering 15 games for just $15. I probably don’t need to do the math for you, but I will, because it is nice to say it: it means $1 for a game! What? So exciting, I know. Leading the lineup is Necroking, a dark little strategy roguelike that feels like it crawled straight out of a cursed chessboard. You play as a necromancer raising armies of the dead, moving them across grid-based maps in a way…

Jeff Kaplan is best known as the original lead of Overwatch, but now that he’s split from Blizzard, it seems he wants his new game to be a little less PvP-centric – at least for now. Kaplan’s new studio, Kintsugiyama, is working on a Wild West survival game called The Legend of California, which is currently taking more cues from PvE-focused games than the brutal PvP of something like Rust.”Someday, I would like to introduce – on servers that want it – Rust-like mechanics,” Kaplan said in a recent Twitch stream, shared on Twitter by Jake Lucky. “But this building…

Ahead of the March 31 Arc Raiders Flashpoint update, some longtime players seem to be drifting away from the game a bit, or at least approaching their fill of what it currently has to offer.The game’s still doing incredibly well, of course, and plenty of players are as hooked as ever.

This came up passively during our recent…

That said, it seems it all comes down to author Andy Weir, the writer of the novel Project Hail Mary, and whether he’s got another story to tell.Weir has previously stated he’s not against a sequel, and has even had a few ideas about where…

We’ve been in touch with Kickstarter, and they’ve given us the option to either keep the funds raised or cancel this campaign and refund all pledges.”Moon Beast doesn’t know what to do. “If we choose the latter,”…
