    Valve have released the Steam Frame's CAD files, but there's already a cottage industry of DIY wrist straps and lifesize skull stands

    Valve released the Steam Frame's CAD files on Friday evening, letting anyone with a 3D printer or lathe make non-commercial accessories from the official blueprints. Early Frame recipients had already prototyped homemade add-ons, including a back-mounted power bank holder, HackStrap variants that undercut the £59 Ergonomic Accessories Kit, and a lifesize skull stand that stores the controllers.

    Burn With Me is a hand-drawn demon card game featuring the artist's own hand, and a finite alternative to Balatro-likes

    Burn With Me is a hand-drawn card game where artist Eva Manuilovich's own right hand appears on the right side of each match, dealing cards and giving a thumbs-up when you beat the target score. Players take on the role of occult university students placing five creature cards around a pentagram to fill a vial with spiritual energy, using adjacency modifiers and the ability to incinerate a card to draw a random new one. Steam reviews suggest it lasts around 6-8 hours, and unlike Balatro, it has a story.

    Long-lost horror cult classic P.T. gets a much-needed PC port

    Coder Lorean Xavier has built an open source porting tool that creates a playable x86 PC executable from the original PS4 files of Hideo Kojima's P.T., rebuilding the engine in C++ and Vulkan to recreate every level, model, texture, sound, script and cutscene. Players still need their own legitimate decrypted copy of the original P.T. to generate a playable PC version. The native port adds upscaling, frame generation, a camera mode, experimental third-person and VR support, and a "museum" section for viewing and listening to in-game assets, including unused content.

    'GTA 6' Leaker's Naked Lucia Crypto Gamble Backfires Massively

    A leaker named Cyberleek urged people to invest at least $30 million into a meme cryptocurrency to earn GTA 6's apparent development build, tying early investment milestones to footage of co-protagonist Lucia Caminos fully nude. Viewers donated to see the character's digital privates, but fans who have had their fill are now pulling their money back out.

The notice says the RTX 5080 24GB will become the top GeForce card and the RTX 5080 16GB will be discontinued; Nvidia has not announced the change or responded to a request for comment.

Horii said that unlike making The Portopia Serial Murder Case alone, AI now lets him create a game just by giving instructions.

    Arc Raiders player numbers rebound with Frozen Trail and 2.0, but may be deceptively high

    Arc Raiders rose to version 2.0 with the Frozen Trail update, and its Steam concurrent player peak climbed to 185,443, the highest since March and well above its usual sub-40,000 daily peaks. A free trial launched alongside the update, so some of those players may never buy the game. Frozen Trail adds the largest new map Pendola Pass, new Arc enemy units, new weapons, a player home called The Outpost and a skill tree revamp, and Embark is officially testing a dedicated PvE mode from 13th to 20th October.

    WW2 RTS Battleplan Launches on Steam Today, Lets You Redraw the Frontline With a Pencil

    WW2 real-time strategy game Battleplan launches on Steam today, with orders issued by drawing on a large pseudo-paper map based on geographical survey data while thousands of troops, tanks, planes and artillery try to turn those doodles into conquered territory. Players don't control units directly, but can draw curved breakthroughs, planned withdrawals, preparatory bombing runs, reconnaissance and counterattacks, and organise divisions, corps and companies before redrawing frontlines. The launch version includes a single-player campaign of 11 historical missions from the D-Day landings to Operation Varsity on the Western Front, plus tutorial levels, and developer Foolish Mortals Games says it plans post-launch system updates, gameplay improvements and additional theatres of war.

    Valor Mortis Review: A First-Person Soulslike in an Alternate Napoleonic Setting

    IGN reviews Valor Mortis, the first-person soulslike from developer One More Level, calling its mix of swordplay, spells, and firearms in an alternate Napoleonic era a genuinely original idea. You play as William, an undead soldier with three melee weapons, three guns, and three hand powers, each with its own upgrade tree, plus a skill tree and Amber mods that change how the character works. The review notes few and underwhelming boss fights, unpolished platforming, and technical problems including hard crashes and missing environment pieces, though the 20-hour campaign still offers plenty worth playing.
