Can a ballet be sci-fi? I suppose it can – if, like Fighting Spirits, it is set in the distant future. This animation is already a year old. At the time of its release Gene Kim, the creator, noted that he had been working on it for a whole year before Black Swan came out […]
The Memories of Phantasm: Fan made game sees second anime

Animazement 2013 cosplay video
Beat Down Boogie has a longer than average cosplay video from Animazement 2013. In many ways; it’s three cosplay videos in one. As it happens Animazement is pretty strict about the camera policy and as a result Beat Down Boogie; Micah, Rick, Blake, Matthew and Brian, filmed a lot outside on the Saturday. There’s a […]
Skeleton battle wedding cake

Call of Cthulhu takes the 7th edition to Kickstarter
[Back this Campaign] The video above isn’t the Kickstarter pitch video for the project. There’s no such video. There’s an image header instead which you can see below. The video was actually quite important though. It helped convince me that this wasn’t a fake Kickstarter project. There’s no mention of the pitch on Chaosium’s homepage […]
