I remember being incredibly disappointed by Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare's multiplayer reveal, thinking that it was essentially a Black Ops 3 reskin. Boundary, with its zero-g FPS combat, looks like the better Call-of-Duty-in-space multiplayer experience. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjBG5TmMgJI I can't say that for sure until I've tried it ...
We're in the middle of the Steam Game Festival: Spring Edition now, and there's dozens of free demos to play. I like the word "free", as well as the idea of trying out upcoming games in a virtual event space, so I had a go with about 15 demos, which is just a small slice of what you can try. I didn't like everything I played, naturally, but I ende...

In today's microtransactions-filled climate, indie games are like rays of hope in a dark cavern. No fluff gameplay that's often coupled with touching narratives, that's what they usually offer. Atma seems to be just that and it's completely free. Just 295MB large, the game can be downloaded from its itch.io page here. Obviously this isn't one of...
