Hytale shows that Minecraft needs to stop being complacent — Mojang should see this release (and its subsequent success) as a major kick in the butt

The game has become incredibly popular and profitable, but significant updates are surprisingly infrequent.

If you’re like me and always need a reliable machine to get things done, this deal is a lifesaver.

Highguard studio says it’s looking for a “core group of fans that love us,” not to top the Steam charts — “We don’t need [player counts] to be super huge”

Highguard is a team-based PvP game where three teams of three players fight it out. It combines skill-based combat with the excitement of scavenging for gear, and features base raiding elements similar to popular survival games. Because it’s free to play, many players are giving it a try.
