MOTORSLICE (PC) Review

MOTORSLICE is an action-adventure game developed by Regular Studio that combines hack-and-slash mechanics with parkour elements. The game features a ten-hour storyline where players control P, a Slicer, accompanied by a drone named Orbie. P's mission is to infiltrate "the Megastructure" and dismantle its machines. The game is noted for its intricately designed world, low-poly graphics, and unique parkour mechanics, including the Motorslice feature that allows P to traverse walls using a chainsaw. Players face various challenges and boss battles, though some encounters may feel limited. The game includes collectibles in the form of drones but lacks deeper lore integration. It has some bugs that can disrupt gameplay. Overall, MOTORSLICE is recommended for those who enjoy challenging parkour experiences.

Someone made a gaming PC so big you can live in it, and yes, it actually plays games

A modder named Soda Baka has created a room-sized gaming PC that allows users to engage with games through a screen mounted on the motherboard. This build includes a functional gaming PC and a 12,000W charcoal sauna, which initially raised the internal temperature to 100.4°F. To manage the heat, a cooling system with giant fans and an air conditioning unit reduced the temperature to 77°F. The project showcases innovative design within the modding community.

I never understood the appeal of a jumbo novelty d20 until I saw one inspired by one of my favorite new RPGs

Die Hard Dice has launched a new collection of d20 dice inspired by the RPG Esoteric Ebb, which is anticipated to be a top RPG of 2026. The collection includes three products, with two sets packaged in different colored bags (purple or orange). Each set contains three standard-sized d20s representing main characters from the game: Snell (a translucent green and blue die for the goblin rogue), Meek (a purple and white die for the wearable mimic), and Ettir (a dark brown die with a gold finish for the angelic character). Each die features a unique symbol corresponding to its character. Additionally, there is a metal die called The Cleric, which has blue and white faces and an electroplated finish. The game itself is noted for its immersive experience and innovative gameplay elements introduced by developer Christoffer Bodegård. Pre-orders for the dice are available, with fulfillment expected by June.

Microsoft says it’ll simpilify Windows 11’s Edge browser by removing features like Sidebar, pledges to win back users

Microsoft is removing the Sidebar feature from Microsoft Edge, starting with users of Microsoft accounts (MSA), though no specific timeline has been provided. The Sidebar, which allowed users to integrate web apps like Outlook and Bing, will no longer support adding new apps, and its quick access list will be gradually removed. The Copilot feature within the Sidebar will remain unaffected. CEO Satya Nadella stated that Microsoft is committed to enhancing user engagement across its platforms, including Edge, which has gained market share for 20 consecutive quarters.

My favorite dice roguelike just left early access, and it’s finally broken my Slay the Spire 2 streak

Die in the Dungeon has released its 1.0 update, marking a significant milestone since its early access debut in 2023. The game features a unique dice-centric combat system where players collect and strategically place dice on a board to perform actions. Different colored dice serve specific functions: red for damage, blue for defense, and green for healing, with additional modifier dice introducing further complexity. The update adds a new character, Nera, who uses the Broken Memento relic for counterplay. Players can now earn experience on every run, unlocking new dice, relics, and lore fragments. The codex has been expanded with detailed enemy information, and a new secret quest offers a chance to uncover the game's true ending. A new 'D8 difficulty' mode challenges players with a degrading dice mechanic. Die in the Dungeon 1.0 is available on Steam with a 35% launch discount until May 15. The development team expresses gratitude for community support and plans to continue updates based on player feedback.

Hytale boss doesn’t want its mod browser to feel like “a shopping mall,” but is exploring ways to support creators

Simon Collins-Laflamme, founder of Hytale, has addressed the issue of paid mods, emphasizing that in-game mods will be free to install with no price tags in the browsing experience. He aims to support mod creators while maintaining an enjoyable player experience. Collins-Laflamme is open to feedback from the community regarding the monetization of mods and acknowledges the concerns from both supporters and opponents of paid mods. He envisions a mod browser that resembles a community library rather than a shopping mall, highlighting the importance of accessibility for players. Hypixel Studios plans to explore ways for players to support mod creators financially, potentially through a system similar to Patreon, where the core mod remains free but players can opt to pay for additional benefits. If creator payments are implemented, Hypixel Studios would take a minimal cut to cover costs. Collins-Laflamme prioritizes a vibrant and open modding ecosystem over a profit-maximizing approach. He invites ongoing input from players and modders as the mod browser develops.
