Cable just got a modern makeover. First introduced to American homes during the 1940s, television has since become a staple of American life. Once a relatively social experience, one where families could gather together to watch their favorite scheduled programming, high definition streaming and smart devices now allow viewers to watch content at any time and place of their choosing.

Until You Fall , the upcoming hack-and-slash rogue-lite from the studio behind I Expect You to Die (2017) , is set to launch in Early Access on August 27th. Until You Fall so far appears to be a very intriguing departure for Schell Games. While the studio has historically built experiences focused on educational/puzzle gameplay, it’s been bullish about its ability to “blend various styles of sword fighting to create an intense, real-time combat expe­ri­ence that hasn’t been seen before w

To avoid awkward and sometimes disastrous learning content, instructional designers must use authentic translation in the right context to get optimal results. For example, even a simple phrase like “got milk” translates to “are you lactating” in Mexico. Can you imagine what a straight translation might do to your course? With over 317 million people in the US and over 6.7 billion potential customers in the world, personalizing training seems logical.

There’s a reason spy films like the James Bond and Bourne franchises do so well, mixing ridiculous plotlines with amazing effects which provide a thrill ride for the audience. Translating that recipe across to a videogame isn’t always easy, especially when you need to fill way more than 1.5 hours of someone’s time. Twisted Pixel aims to do just that with Oculus Rift exclusive Defector.

Ever since Schell Games first announced its next project , the magic-infused sword-fighting title Until You Fall, the studio has been careful to not release too much information. That’s starting to change and in just over a month’s time, you’ll know a lot more as Until You Die as it’ll be arriving on Steam Early Access. From the details released so far Until You Fall sounds like a purely melee-based combat experience, pitting players against battle corrupted humano

When I heard about Defector at OC5, I was excited to see what essentially amounted to Mission Impossible coming to VR—the laughably improbable, overblown action movie that makes you feel like a true badass. And while there are some choice slices of action hero greatness served up on a silver platter, I couldn’t help but feel like Defector was still a bit under-cooked in the middle.

For the most part, Valve tends to be very, very secretive when it comes to developing projects. The company does seem to be warming to the idea of being a little more open about what it is working on, such a the development of the Knuckles (now called Valve Index ) controllers. Today, that trend continues with the launch of Steam Labs , a place where Steam users can see and test experimental features.
