One of the benefits of being involved in the independent games community in Toronto is that you meet a lot of really cool people and see a ton of cool projects. One of those people is Benjamin Rivers, creator of the horror game Home, and the upcoming adventure game Alone With You. Before those games,...

I picked up the FTL soundtrack in the latest Game Music Bundle, and I was listening to it on my way home yesterday. As I was listening to the track “Milky Way,” I started to sing “Get Lucky” along to it and it was kind of loosely working. I’ve never done a mashup before, so...

Elegy is finally coming! I first met the creators, Scott and David at Fan Expo last year where I played an Elegy endless battle prototype (and got pretty far up the high score list if I do say so myself). The game has come a long way, and later this month you’ll be able to...
