When it comes to showing off unique games, no showcase can top Day of the Devs. There are three showcases annually, with this being the last of the year. (See you next June!) As always, this edition of Day of the Devs features world premieres, first looks, and deep dives…
Burnout is too common in the games industry, and I fear it…
For those of us with social anxiety, merely going out into the…
