Dead Hook Review: Eternally Demonic Action
Developers draw inspiration from all sorts of places with other videogames a common one. One franchise that’s always been admired and gleaned from is DOOM, with its wall-to-wall action, seemingly endless enemies and destructive weaponry.

How Does a 7-Year-Old Game Still Dominate VR Charts?
The year was 2016 and after years of ever-improving developer kits, the time was nigh for the launch of consumer VR.

Pico Launches App Lab Rival Pico Lab
If you own a Meta Quest 2 then it’s likely you’ve come across App Lab at some point. An alternative distribution method for VR developers that’s not as stringent, it’s also harder to find games. Meta rival Pico – owned by TikTok creator Bytedance – has now launched its own App Lab rival, Pico Lab.
