- The 12 most extravagant lines of dialogue in games - 21 February 2020
One Off The List is our weekly list feature. Is there something you think doesn t deserve to be on this list? Comment with your reasons why, and next week it may be struck off. The greasy realm of the videogame is not always the best place to look for good writing. For every Disco Elysium there are roughly 800 Detroit: Beyond Human s. But it is a good place to look for wondrous, over-the-top nonsense. I m talking about character dialogue so flamboyant and exaggerated, you could insert some line breaks and it would instantly become a verse in a glam rock anthem. Here are the 12 most extravagant, exuberant, and intense lines of dialogue. In games, subtext is just whatever s written on the side of the nuclear submarine. (more…)
- Everything available in Japanese! - 19 February 2020
Hello all, We recently implemented a large-scale update on Everything. The game now features a full Japanese localization! This was done by PLAYISM, an Indie game publisher based in Osaka. They have localized Night in the Woods, D4, and DEEEER Simulator among others. Switch languages via "SETTINGS" > "Language" We wanted to keep the original vibe by adding subtitles for Alan Watts' recordings and translating all the Thoughts, menus, object names etc.. Generated Thoughts also work. If you can read Japanese, please give it a try, you might just find something new. Since Everything is like an exploded 3d encyclopedia, I hope it will also be a fun way to learn the language. If you find any bugs or any issues in the Japanese build, please report them to us via this Japanese bug reporting thread This update also includes a much improved color correction system. The new one is more subtle and…
- Metro 2033 Redux and Everything currently free on the Epic Games Store - 27 September 2019
Everything is currently free on the Epic Games Store! But wait; before you go indiscriminately loading up your shopping cart (haha, just kidding), I should probably clarify: Everything the game is currently free on the Epic Store, as is Metro 2033 Redux. So if you're in the mood to expand that already insurmountable backlog still further, you know where to go. Everything, if it passed you by previously, is the acclaimed second game from David OReilly, the Irish artist and filmmaker responsible for strange, serene desktop experience Mountain (and, I just learned two minutes ago, the Adventure Time episode A Glitch is a Glitch). It's a somewhat unclassifiable experience, in which players are able to catalogue the universe - a goal achieved simply by inhabiting objects within Everything's procedurally generated world. And it's here that Everything gets its name, with players able to take o…

- Have You Played Everything? - 10 September 2019
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time… In Everything you play as everything. A fleet of flying sofas, a tiny ant, a string of DNA floating on the wind. You can play as giant trees, erupting forth from the ground as you sprout and slither your way across the land, or perhaps you’d prefer to lead an entire orchestra’s worth of musical instruments through the purple, unending void inside an alien spacecraft. You can even do a little dance to spawn other trees or trumpets (or pebbles, or beetles or a drawer full of spoons) to grow your empire of assorted sentient objects until you can see nothing but trees and trumpets (or rhinos, or giraffes or ten-pin bowling bowls). As that old-fashioned saying goes, the world is truly your oyster in Everything, and I absolutely love the idea of being able to see the wor…
- 7 toylike games to play during the winter holidays - 25 December 2018
Happy holidays! Time to see what s in your stocking. Oh, it s another copy of The Golf Handbook (Third Edition). And some toenail clippers. Great. No, honestly, that s fine. It s not like little Jemima over there is dashing about in her cool lion slippers, making you ache for an era of innocence and novelty that you can never revisit. And who cares if she s clashing her dinosaur figurines over the ruins of a Lego city? You certainly don t. Why, you barely notice as her damned wonderful slippers go rarr with every step. Oh well, better go set the table for dinner. No! We won t allow it. Turn that holiday frown upside-holiday-down, adult friend of mine. Children do not have a monopoly on fun. Here are seven playthings that ll make you click, smile, discover, and giggle. These are all toys as much as they are games, and they’re your real stocking fillers. Enjoy. (more…)

- Humble s Day of the Devs 2017 is live now with some point & click classics - 25 October 2017
Day of the Devs, for those not in the know, is an event in San Francisco that lets fans meet and talk shop with a bunch of game developers in what usually becomes one big celebration of various nerdoms. This year’s event is taking place on Saturday, 11th November and Humble is celebrating the occasion with a big ol’ Day of the Devs 2017 themed bundle which offers up to $131 worth of games for $9.

- How Everything conjures infinity with camera tricks - 25 August 2017
This is The Mechanic , where Alex Wiltshire invites developers to discuss the inner workings of their games. This time, Everything . Everything is a game about everything. You can play as everything. Planets and hairs, whales and articulated buses. Pollen, spiral galaxies, tents, penguins – you get the picture. Within a few seconds, you might have moved from being a tardigrade floating on the microscopic scale all the way to being a sun hanging in a star-flecked universe. But the transitions, as you scale from from tardigrade to clump of grass to chimpanzee to forest to continent to planet to sun, feel remarkably smooth, even magical, reflecting the game s core philosophical message: that everything is related and part of a whole, and that we are natural a part of it all too. Under that smoothness lie a lot of design tricks by its creators, David O Reilly and Damien Di Fede, all c…

Navigate the gallery by clicking on the left and right arrows or use the left and right cursor keys on your keyboard! Real life is rubbish sometimes, and there s nothing that video games can do about that.

- Wot I Think: Everything - 25 April 2017
I am a spruce beetle. I call to two other spruce beetles nearby and now I am all of them. I tell them to dance and they begin to skitter of their own volition, making concentric circles and infinity signs and all manner of patterns. Each time a circle fills at the top of the screen – the only visible UI element – I press A in order to spawn another spruce beetle which joins in the dance. I do this for seventeen minutes, until there is a thrumming mass of spruce beetles. Eventually I’ve had enough and so I become a snowball. This is what Everything is about. …
