I’m sure I’ve mentioned Zombies Run! to you before. It tells the story of a surviving colony after the Zombie apocalypse with you as the main character? You remember.

Logo for Zombies Run! depicting a stick figure running from out stretched zombie hands.

Anyway. Earlier this year I was disheartened to hear that the company that had purchased Six to Start (creator of said app) had laid off the entire staff but for two individuals. While I’m still making my way through the existing content this seemed like a bad sign for the future.

Back in 2021 OliveX acquired Six to Start and everything seemed to be fine. Episodes were produced and seasons added. Then the bad news landed early 2025. It turns out OliveX had all sorts of NFT plans for Zombies Run! but the creators weren’t having it.

Now the good news! One of the founding partners has purchased the app from Olive X and, I can only hope, it will live a glorious undead life from here on out.

Seems like me and the other Runners 5 will live to be chased another day.

Logo for Walkabout Mini Golf

If you haven’t had a chance to mini golf in VR you are missing out. I admit I was skeptical of the format at first but oh man, it’s so great. Mighty Coconut has done such an incredible job with Walkabout Mini Golf. Not only are the physics and feedback of the golf mechanics excellent, the choice of music, ambient sound, course design, environment design, and an appropriate amount of side quests all make for some remarkable place making. All of this while maintaining a low-poly aesthetic that may appear, at first glance, outdated if you judge it on screenshots alone but only adds to the charm and character of the worlds they’ve built.

Not only did they build a great experience, they’re using their worlds in clever ways to hold interviews and create other content. I only just happened upon their Talkabout series and you should check out some of the interviews.

Really enjoying a little VR mini golf as a relaxing end to the day. Ready for a little multiplayer if you are.

SUPERHOT VR (SUPERHOT VR - Multi-award winning, smash-hit truly FPS)
You've never felt so cool in the video game before. Dodge bullets in mind bending slow motion, control the action, destroy boundaries of time.

A tremendous VR experience.

It’s good to be back on the Mun! Looking forward to flinging more Kerbals to far off places. A screenshot of Kerbal Space Program 2. There are elements of the UI for launching and tracking the spaceship. The main image is a small green figure in a space suit standing next to a flag on the surface of the Mun (which looks shockingly like the moon). The Kerbal's lander is to the left of him, tilting slightly.#ksp2 #kerbalspaceprogram #mun

Google doodle image in 8bit style portraying Jery Lawson playing video games.

Today’s Google Doodle pays tribute to Jerry Lawson. A video game pioneer I hadn’t known about until a recent Netflix documentary…which is tragic. Learn about Jerry and then go play the doodle: https://g.co/doodle/c3bvcxu

NPR also posted an article about it today https://www.npr.org/2022/12/01/1140063531/google-doodle-games-jerry-lawson
