Fed up of Kickstarter? Visit the Game of Glens on Collective

January 29, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Games company Square Enix has a new crowdfunding platform called Collective. Whereas Kickstarter needs you to splash the cash to back a pitch Collective does not.

January 29, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Official trailer for Terry Gilliam’s The Zero Theorem

January 29, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is strange. I have a lot of time for the Python who also brought us Brazil, Time Bandits and The Adventures of Baron Munchausen. He did The Brothers Grimm, The Fisher King and Twelve Monkeys as well. His films are notorious battles, often with lots of real life challenges and failures. The Man Who Killed […]

The way of a god: A review of Moon’s Artifice

January 27, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Moon’s Artifice won me over and I was a converted fan, ready for the sequel, by the end. The odd thing is that the first few chapters in Moon’s Artifice were a bit of a struggle for me. I don’t know why. I immediately liked the characters. I immediately liked the scenes and first whiff […]
