You might remember 2021's Umurangi Generation, developed by Māori studio Origame Digital. It placed its focus on its first-person photography system as much as its very direct anti-colonial and anti-neoliberal criticism, stemming partly from the Australian government's mishandling of COVID and the bushfires that spread across the country in 2020. Origame's second game, the newly-released Pen...

Penguin Colony is probably the best pisstake of Lovecraft and Lovecraftian horror I've played. It's the best because it places Lovecraft's universe at a creaturely remove, amplifying its absurdity without having to drop any punchlines. Entering a ravaged polar campsite, I advance among burning tents and uniformed corpses to a pioneer seated on a crate, who is busily sawing his own face off. Ice an...

While some inspirations for Penguin Colony are obvious (shout-out to The Thing’s title drop), it’s always interesting to dig below the surface and find lesser-known works that stick with developers. Director Naphtali Faulkner has a lot of stories on his mind when it comes to his mind-bending penguin-sliding experience, so today we’ll focus on a very specific one in particular.We love to talk about...

You might be surprised to hear this given the very indie vibe about it, but Penguin Colony features RTX. It's actually AAA too, and includes DLSS as well. Perhaps most shockingly of all, there's genAI in Penguin Colony. It's true! It's all true! You can see it in the game's latest trailer for yourself. Look, right there, RTX: Real Terror eXploration. And there's GENeral Antarctic Isolation, Does L...

There was really only one way to enhance the prospect of an Antarctic open world game with a choice of playable penguins that's actually a fractious retelling of Lovecraft's Mountains of Madness, created by the developers of Umurangi Generation. And that one way was to hire Lenval Brown, narrator for Disco Elysium's special edition, to voice the first proper trailer. And also, make the trailer loo...
