There’s a ghost that grows inside of me, damaged in the making. A hunt sprung from necessity, elliptical and drowned. Where the moving quiet of our insomnia offers up each thought, there’s a luminous field of grey inertia, and obsidian dreams burnt all the way down.

Tekkonkinkreet [Black & White]
Flawless animation, a chaotic city, and an insanely moving story.
Childhood, violence, abandonment, imagination, two beings that find meaning because the other is there, parts of the same fractured entity.
Visually overwhelming, fluid, raw and beautiful.

There’s something inside my empty brain, and that something expands at high speed. It’s keeping memory from fastening on to anything. Every day feels like it’s happening inside a dream.

The difference between cold and cruel is that to be cruel, you need to have feelings but to be cold, you don’t, right?

Don't worry. The world won't stop spinning. It'll keep going, even if you don't want it to. On and on, until you're absolutely sick of it.

Now! Now only happens now. But now exists everywhere. The past and future have vanished and countless nows continue infinitely. That is why I can keep going forever. I am completely free and can go to any now I choose. I can exist anywhere. Firmly, in any time.

Life might merely be a momentary bolt of lightning in the dark, after which the self melts into the infinite darkness.

In the waking world, I obsess over the superficial. I devote myself to the acme of emptiness. And that devotion infiltrates my dreams, the world of my unconscious. Covered in thick plastic – that’s how I’ve made myself. Over years and years. The sadistic act of self-creation.

METAL EDEN demo
From the creators of Ruiner! This shooter feels like a mix between DOOM Eternal and a bit of Ghostrunner. Beautiful aesthetics and atmosphere, cool skins, the sound design was not very exciting and some mechanics seem to need calibration, but the game is fluid and very fun!
