This charming poster was created by the designer Daniel Nyari Nyari was born in Roania, grew up in Austria and now lives in New York. In addition to his art talent he clearly has good taste in sci-fi too.

A look inside the stonepunk RPG: Cavemaster
Cavemaster was a successful Kickstarter project from Jeff Dee. The game positioned itself as a “stonepunk” RPG – playing on the steampunk evolution from cyberpunk. Players could take on the roles of hunters, gathers, warriors, shaman and other stone age classes, the game would feature historitically accurate creatures alongside magic and other fantasy rules. The […]
If this funding project fails – we’ll keep your money
I’m most familiar with Kickstarter even though it’s yet to launch in the UK (the autumn, I’m told – seems like they’re running tight on time) but the premise is very clear; if the project fails then supporters don’t spend their money. Isn’t IndieGoGo the same? No? Step forward the controversial James Desborough and the […]
Devin Night’s awesome Tabletop Forge tokens
I backed the Tabletop Forge Kickstarter at a level where the pledge reward included a custom token. Tabletop Forge is an impressive Google+ Hangouts app for roleplayers. It allows gamers to have the tabletop gaming experience without actually all being at the same tabletop. Google+ Hangouts provide the impressive video functions and the Tabletop Forge […]
Doctor Who: Eggs and Christmas
This post is speculation. It follows on from the question Are the Lights Going Out? and the theories Is the Doctor becoming a Dalek? and Are the Weeping Angels Attacking Earth and Turning Lights Out Across Time?. We don’t know. It’s all just theory and guess work – but if you’re not up to date […]
Anime on Demand cancels payments
I subscribe to Anime on Demand. It’s a chance to watch legally streamed anime online and access shows I would never otherwise have access too. It’s a great deal for Viz Media as I only tend to access the service when I’m staying overnight in a hotel for business travel. If they have enough subscribers […]
Hungry Hungry Koopas
Take a fantastic game, a game that requires skill, intelligence and maturity – a game like Hungry Hungry Hippos – and challenge yourself to make it better. That’s exactly the challenge Donald Kennedy rose to. The toy maker dabbles in making iconic video game characters come to life as models. It’s a skill he has […]
Doctor Who’s Matt Smith goes to London Comic Con
MCM London Comic Con took a huge leap forward to certain success today when organisers were able to announce that Matt Smith, the eleventh Doctor, would be attending. Matt Smith will join a panel discussion with Caroline Skinner, Executive Producer for Doctor Who, at the MCM Theatre. The panel discussion will also be available online […]
Picture this… a bad idea
Some wonderful art from Nebezial. Have you done this? Not sneak up behind the Joker while he’s tinkered with a bomb – but recognised the situation, failed to register it entirely and go ahead with your original idea? Bad idea.
The most dangerous unboxing ever
Some people may have grown tired of unboxing videos. I understand why. That said; someone can always build a better box. Combine that mysterious box with the fact that it was sent to Valve, the makers of some wonderful computer games, and suddenly the unboxing gets interesting again. Could this be an unboxing for science, […]
