Orbitals Review: Space For Improvement

The first time I saw footage of Orbitals, the anime-themed co-op game from Shapefarm, it was love at first sight. But the more I got to know it, the more I realized good relationships are built on more than appearances. Orbitals is a stunningly beautiful sci-fi adventure with decent gameplay and a disappointing story. Despite…

Orbitals Review: A Beautiful But Derivative Co-Op Adventure

They say comparison is the thief of joy. It certainly makes it hard to enjoy Orbitals at times. Shapefarm’s take on the split-screen co-op adventure popularized by Hazelight with games like the award-winning It Takes Two and its follow-up, Split Fiction, is admirable for the ways it manages to differentiate itself from the games that…

Mog or Die codes (September 2026)

If your Roblox avatar is looking a little average, you’re going to need to redeem these new Mog or Die codes before someone beats you to the biotin. Not tall enough? Break a leg. No, seriously – break a leg. That’s what it takes to grow, literally, in this vain Roblox simulator. Mog or Die…

Star Wars Zero Company Review: More Than A Clone

Sometimes you play a game where its inspirations are never in question. Rarely has that been more evident in recent memory than with Star Wars Zero Company from Bit Reactor, a studio founded by former XCOM developers. While it’s more than just an XCOM-like tactics game with Star Wars stylings, the description still holds up…

The studio behind Star Wars Zero Company, which is currently a Steam bestseller, has reportedly furloughed the majority of its staff

The studio behind Star Wars Zero Company furloughed up to 80 percent of its staff in the lead up to the RPG’s launch, a Game File report reveals.

Devs Behind Best-Reviewed Star Wars Game In Years Get Furloughed

Star Wars Zero Company is the debut game from Bit Reactor, and it’s already the best-reviewed Star Wars game in 22 years.
