Ben Gray on Creating Color Dash
Today I got the chance to speak to an colleague of mine, Ben Gray. Ben and I had worked on an Xbox One title a long time ago and now he's getting ready to launch the new mobile puzzle game, Color Dash. The game is simple, yet addictive, with a clean minimalist style. Color Dash features a simple color blending mechanics that becomes more complicated. New subtle twists on blending are introduced with each new level making the game easy to learn but hard to master. Color Dash w


Of Division and Destiny
I was never a big fan of Destiny. Not that I hated the game it just never sucked me in. I guess the one thing I had against Destiny was how controlled it felt. PVE and PVP were separated into small sections in the form of matchmaking lobbies and instances. Of course there are open areas where you could encounter other players but aside from the occasional Encounter missions most of these players kept to themselves with little to no incentive to interact with each other. This


My Black Desert Experience
To make amends I made sure to be ready for the second test, currently going on at time of writing. I have put in about 2 hours into the game so far. So far I'm really enjoying it, reaching lvl 9.

Meanwhile Destiny beta had the benefit of past console generation minus the PC. Ubisoft also announced that beta users logged around 5 hours of play time

Firewatch Quicky Review
Let’s start by saying Firewatch by Campo Santo is an amazing game. The graphics are gorgeous, voice acting stupendous, with an amazing/unique story to boot. However, it is not a game for everyone. This game is a slow burner (hah get it?). There are tasks that need to be completed but you could go about it your own way. Everyone’s gaming experience will be different based on the dialogue and optional actions they choose. I was so intrigued with all the possibilities in how the

Saam Pahlavan of Looty Dungeon, Lunching an Indy Studios First Game.
I got the chance to talk to Saam Pahlavan to discuss his studios first release Looty Dungeon. The new studio (Taco Illuminati) was formed to launch the game after the team had worked together on separate projects and decided to make something bigger. It’s both an exciting and nerve wracking experience to break out into the Indy market with a new studio.
