Yesterday we launched our first semi-final between Shattered Horizon and Torchlight, two very popular games of which amassed several hundred votes already. Pretty impressive, if I say so myself.

We’ve already explained, numerous times, why Torchlight is [...]

Here it is, the first of two semi-final match ups, with the second one coming tomorrow.

This is it, the very first match up in the round of 16. This is where the competition starts getting really interesting as games with large communities and games with long established fan bases begin clashing for indie game domination! … See? I can totally make this sound like a real sporting event.
In any case, [...]
