Neverway doesn’t want to be Stardew Valley. Instead, the devs are going as “weird as possible,” Larian-style

Neverway is a life simulation game developed by Coldblood Inc., where players assume the role of Fiona, a newcomer on a mysterious island. The game features resource gathering, romantic relationships, and confrontations with menacing creatures, alongside a darker narrative involving a potentially malevolent Lovecraftian entity. It combines elements of horror, RPG mechanics, and soulslike gameplay, distinguishing itself from similar titles like Stardew Valley. The game's narrative explores serious themes, including Fiona's struggles with depression, and incorporates a unique color palette that enhances its eerie atmosphere. Neverway is set to release in October 2026, with a Prologue demo currently available on Steam.

Minecraft 26.2 Snapshot 5 Adds Sulfur Cube Explosive Archetype, Geysers and More

In Minecraft 26.2 Snapshot 5, Mojang introduced explosive Sulfur Cubes that can absorb TNT blocks, transforming into volatile entities. When ignited by fire or Redstone, they have a 6-second fuse, while explosions can trigger a random fuse time of 0.75 to 3 seconds. Once primed, they are immune to damage, and the TNT block cannot be harvested with shears. Additionally, Potent Sulfur blocks can interact with water and magma to produce geysers that launch water particles and nearby entities into the air. Hoglins have been reclassified as hostile and will no longer spawn in Peaceful mode. New sound effects accompany the geysers and Sulfur Spikes. To create an Explosive Sulfur Cube, a Sulfur Cube must absorb a TNT block, and geysers are produced when a Potent Sulfur block is placed above a Magma block or submerged under 1-4 water source blocks within a Sulfur Pool.

‘Eventually the slop will just fall to the bottom’: Garry’s Mod sequel launches to ‘mixed’ reviews, but Garry himself isn’t worried about AI games on the main page

s&box, the successor to Garry's Mod, has been unveiled as an open-source platform aimed at a mature audience, similar to Roblox. It has received a mixed reception on Steam, with many negative reviews citing issues related to AI-generated content. The platform features hastily assembled games, including one titled Terry's Granny (Now with Co-op!). Newman from Facepunch stated that while the studio does not encourage using AI for game creation, they recognize its value as a learning and productivity tool. He emphasized the importance of human creativity and a balanced approach to AI use, suggesting a 50/50 method. Newman mentioned that Facepunch uses AI mainly in early pre-production phases and views it as a tool for learning rather than a replacement for creative processes. He believes that low-quality AI-generated content will eventually be disregarded by users. S&box is now available on Steam for users to explore and contribute to its community.
