    PAX EAST 2020: Ghostrunner Hands-On Impressions

    As this generation comes to an end, the top trending theme is the theme of cyberpunk. Ruiner, Black Future ’88, and naturally, Cyberpunk 2077 are just a small inkling of games that take place within this genre of science fiction. As more games take to this theme, the need to stand out is essential, and Ghostrunner seeks to slice its way through the competition. Coming from 3D Realms and Developer One More Level,  Ghostrunner is a first-person action game where players shed th

    Black Future ’88 Hands-On Impressions

    Good Shepard dimmed the lights for a special event featuring Black Future ’88, a side-scrolling cyberpunk roguelike game with incredibly tight controls and a pulse-pounding synthwave soundtrack the likes of which has not been heard in games before in the October of 2019.

    Many video games are releasing in the Fall, and for several months, it is a rolling conveyor belt of endless goods. Many smaller games are released within these cracks and many provide their degree of entertainment and interaction. For many of these games, they aim to please and entertain, but not to innovate or revolutionize established mechanics. These particular games simply seek to entertain and have fun and that is where Habroxia falls. Habroxia is a new space ship shoot
