Well, that's your channel sorted for the foreseeable future.

Eagerly awaiting the console port. It's due this month, but there's been nothing but radio silence...

should say i finished disco elysium since posting last and it more than sticks the landing, all in all it is i think one of the most carefully thought through video game plots i can think of. have been wanting to replay and try a different set of character options, but waiting for the march update which is supposed add a good deal of extra stuff.

Seven Samurai 20XX is a PlayStation 2 game released by Sammy Studios in 2004. Its story and concept are based upon Akira Kurosawa's 1954 movie Seven Samurai. Rights for the production of the game were given by the Kurosawa production, with character designs by French artist Mœbius and the composition of the music by Ryuichi Sakamoto.

Seven Samurai 20XX is a re-telling of Seven Samurai in a futuristic setting. It takes various liberties with the original story to better suit the post setting and introduces anime and modern styled designs. The game follows seven samurai as they fight off an immense army of mutants, cyborgs and other inhuman creatures in an attempt to bring about a regime of peace for those in need.

A few weeks ago we launched FontStruct’s first user-curated set of FontStructions – the “Game Recreations” set – highlighting a significant but often neglected corner of our typographic world. The set’s intrepid and expert curators have already amassed a fabulous collection of over 700 designs, and here they explain a little of the history behind their project and invite you to contribute. This is a guest post from Patrick H. Lauke (Redux) and Goatmeal.
