I get that voxel art is super trendy right now, and normally I’d rebel against the trends… but I’m super into it. It’s retro yet contemporary at the same time. As Britney Spears says, gimme more! Station to Station is a cozy, voxel art railway sim that falls solidly into…

Future Games Show is usually a good showcase to watch (here are my highlights from their Not-E3 2023 edition). Yes, there will be lots of shooty-shooty, but there’s generally also some really thoughtful, creative games thrown into the mix.
