Itch.io, the indie-focused Steam alternative is generally good for hidden gems, low-poly horror, fan zines and, with a few shameful interruptions, smut.

Palworld dev celebrates “staggering” Steam response to 1.0, proving lightning can strike twice

7 years ago, Nintendo officially released the best anime RPG dramas of all time

When you think “soap opera,” visions of hokey classics like Days of Our Lives probably come to mind. Or maybe some memories of Downton Abbey. Nintendo likely isn’t high on the list of associations with the term, for good reason. Outside of the Xenoblade series, Nintendo’s storytelling style rarely approaches such levels of drama. But…
