Lots of Gamescom coverage to write up but actually had other words this week you can catch up on now. First, this week’s Creative Bloq indie spotlight is Penguin Colony, which blends PS2 aesthetics with Lovecraftian cosmic horror, Nazis, and ofc penguins www.creativebloq.com/3d/video-gam...

Oof lot of talk. As a dev, fwiw, I think stuff like this is important. The response to stuff that asks questions or pushes against the norms proves how immature as an industry we still are. This is a great study point for design ethics & trends. If it wasn’t written, regardless dis/agree you learn.
