Just a reminder that End Of Starchild is COMPLETELY FREE, on my GOTY shortlist, and the last thing I wrote for PC Gamer as a freelancer. Play it. But probably play Time Tripper (a Doom mod, not standalone) first. msx.horse/tt/ msx.horse/eos/

I'm pleased to announce that a final build of Sword Dancer is now up and ready to go for #RAMP2026! Slice through an entire horde of cultists with a sword and become an utter whirlwind of gore and destruction! Currently the project is still a snapshot, but should soon be in full release!
