Back in my heyday,Call of Dutywas a huge part of my social life. Now, it’s a ghost town. Yeah, I said “heyday.” I’m old. At 36, I feel as though I am at least double that age in the gaming community. This is just one of the reasonsCoDhas felt real lonely for me over the past few years, though, but I’m also pretty sure I’m not the only one who feels this way....

It’s a hard-knock life It takes a lot to stand out as an indie developer these days. Even if your game actually makes it to major platforms, there’sno guarantee that you’ll even make any money from it. Despite offering iterations of what essentially amounts to the same damn game every single year, AAA publishers have a solid chokehold on the majority of gamer’s wallets, and the rest of the industry is left to fight over the scraps like rabid dogs....

Please, no objections Well, then. 2021 is over. A series of 365 days that decided, “what if we did 2020, again?” It was the remaster we did not need. But all that said, in spite of the continued effects of the pandemic and other nonsense, it was a good year too—one with good times, fun stories, and a smattering of new games to call my favorites of the year. When I ran down the list of what I’ve played last year, I realized how all over the place it’s been....

From there you can bend, rotate, reflect, and more, eventually making more complex letters....
