It’s been a few weeks since I wrote about Glitchspace, but I just got my hands on an early build of the game. It is a very different first-person experience. While its abstract appearance is reminiscent of Mirror’s Edge’s iconic DLC, the game feels more like Portal. Only, if you were playing Portal as Cypher…
Folkenstal builds weapons and armour, mostly from Skyrim. She is very, very good at what she does. Cataloguing her builds on both Facebookand her personal site, there’s everything from intricate daggers to entire suits of armour. If you like what you see here, know that she does commissions
Track: Uno [NSFW] | Album: Pinata | Artist: Freddie Gibbs x Madlib Kotaku Soundtrack is a selection of the stuff we’re listening to – and gaming to – at the moment.
In case you’ve forgotten all about it since its debut at least year’s E3, Below is an upcoming roguelike from some of the guys (Capy, not Superbrothers) who made Sword & Sworcery. This is the game’s PAX trailer. If you’re like me and kept clicking “play” over and over just to hear the music, know…
The Oculus Rift is a wonderful thing, but it takes a lot out of you, physically. You need to be at your best while using it, because there’s a lot of stuff going on between your eyes and your brain. This guy is not at his best, and it has cost him dearly. YouTuber iPhoneK1LLA,…
While Figma can try and do a “realistic” Link figure, the more cartoonish Nendoroid line is free to do something a little cuter. Yet also angrier. This Wind Waker figure, which comes with interchangable head, accessories, arms and effects, has already got my money. And yes, I know the “angry” face is really just his…
When René Koiter and Rebecca Watts want to dress as power couple Khal Drogo and Daenerys, they don’t do it half-assed. Instead, they make sure literally a dozen people are involved to get these images, from set coordinators to fitness trainers to a hairstylist. I don’t know what’s most impressive. Rebecca for her ability to…
Don’t tell me you wouldn’t ask the same question if you had the chance. During a Reddit AMA over the weekend, the veteran actor was asked all kinds of stuff, including what his most-requested line is (“Get off my plane”) and what it’s like rescuing people with a helicopter. The most useful question, though, came…
Dmitriy Rabochiy is a character artist currently doing some work with Blur. Over the last few years, he’s mainly done stuff for games, mobile and film. You can see more of Dmitriy’s work at his personal site To see the larger pics in all their glory (or, if they’re big enough, so you can save…
Let the age of Bravely Default cosplay commence. Great costume, even if Linda Le has got her characters all wrong (Agnes as a vampire? My Agnes was a performer!)
Double-Fine’s Costume Quest is getting its own comic series. That shold be good enough news for fans of giant french fries monsters, but the even better news is that it’s being done by fan artist extraordinaire (and former Kotaku contributor) Zac Gorman
There’s a Facebok group called Dead Mall Enthusiasts. It’s a fascinating collection of photos people have taken of abandoned malls across America. There are all kinds of socioloical reasons why that’s interesting, but what’s really got me is how they look like a video game artist’s portfolio come to life. Left 4 Dead. Dead Rising.…
And some from the 90s as well, I guess, so long as they love FREEDOM
Yeah, this is little more than an advertisement for Nvidia tech. But the clip also gives us a look at Watch Dogs running on the PC, and it looks great Of course it does. It’s a trailer. It’s running as nicely as the game can possibly run. But still! Even if you can only get…
Using cosplay images without crediting the photographer is not cool. It’s a lot worse, though, when a European news program steals some cosplay footage, edits it then falls into the ol’ “all Asians look the same” trap. This story ran recently on Spain’s Telecinco 5. It’s about Tokyo’s fashion culture, and seems to be little…
In the wilds of the Czech Republic, a massive group of Warhammer fans have gathered, dressed up and gone to war. Not on the tabletop. On a “real” battlefield. Smrtihlav 2014, held on the grounds of Orlík Castle, saw the forces of The Empire do battle with the armies of Chaos in an enormous LARP…
The security flaw known as “Heartbleed” could be the worst thing that’s ever happened to the internet. Whether or not you’re spooked by it, some people are already taking measures. Like…renaming their games on Steam. For those who already own the game, South Park: The Stick Of Truth is, for the time being, no longer…
Zero Suit Samus is in the new Smash Bros., and she has some rather interesting footwear. Which, if we’re being honest, should put her at a competitive disadvantage. Comic artist Natasha Allegri knows how to make things fairer. Don’t take Samus’ stupid heels off. Put stupid heels on everyone else Bowser, you are killing it.…
German indie studio duangle, who are working on the very pretty PC adventure game Nowhere, are made up of only two people. One of them is artist Sylvia Ritter. The other is her husband, Leonard Ritter Sylvia’s art is a nice change of pace from what we normally post here, with abstracts and vectors replacing…
Kirk says Tropical Skyrim is a “tragedy”. I say “IT’S LIKE SKYRIM BUT WITH FAR CRY 3“. Whatever your stance on what the ambitious mod (which you can get here) does to the fifth Elder Scrolls game, you can’t argue with the fact it makes for a very pretty thing to look at. Something Zenoseth’s…
