I’ll put my hands up. I want this. There have been iRobot’s Roomba cleaners around for a while. I’ve always wanted one. My tiny Leith flat has wooden mini-steps between each room and the hallway so I’ve never got one. My assumption is that the little Roomba had no chance of making it from room […]

Funky! Spirit of 77 Kickstarter rolls in the wonga
Spirit of 77 mixes in classic 70s sci-fi with action, glam music and even kung-fu. Sound ambitious? Not your cup of tea? I worried but when I read through the free to download Cruise Ship of the Damned I was won over. I’m not alone. At the time of writing the Spirit of 77 Kickstarter […]

Magic or Science: A review of Karneval
Karneval wastes no time in getting going. As the anime opens there is a young man handcuffed to a bed and a lecherous noble woman astride him. Kinky? It would help if the noble woman wasn’t also a hideous monster who literally hungers for flesh. Thankfully for our innocent hero – “Get off, you’re heavy” […]
