Ooblets, a Whacky Game Released This Week is Fun Game for PC

#artificialintelligence

As the game is set in a World War II Europe, the plot is incredibly harrowing and fast-paced. The main character is Gerda, a Danish citizen who must make increasingly complex and impactful decisions that lead her to travel all around the countryside avoiding the enemy. "The story of GAFIW is inspired by the real life of Hans Von Knut's grandmother (Hans is PortaPlay's Game Director), who took part in the Danish Resistance during WW2. She shared her experiences and reflections with him, and those became the base for the conversation inside the studio that bloomed into GAFIW. We weren't looking intentionally into WW2, but rather we felt that keeping the setting true to the actual history and location can bring a sense of specificity and authenticity."


Chill out: a new wave of relaxing video games shows there's more to them than violence

The Guardian

When it comes to video games, violence sells. This year's E3, the biggest news event in the video game calendar, featured a lot of violent content, like every year before. It's saddening how much of gaming is defined solely in those terms – especially when more relaxing alternatives have being going through a mini-renaissance recently. Chill out games that focus on growing and relaxing rather than shooting or racing are not a rarity. They are not given the same exposure as their blockbuster counterparts, but they are plentiful and popular.
