If you enjoy the tension of survival against all odds in the likes of Project Zomboid and Wasteland 3, new Steam game Survive the Fall is one you'll want to inspect. With team strategy, base building, tactical combat, and plenty of mysteries to uncover, developer Angry Bulls' creation feels like a fusion of State of Decay, Wasteland, XCOM, and even settlement management akin to the likes of Rimworld. It's out now, and you can even grab it at a generous early discount if you're quick.

In my opinion, a truly great PC needs to look as beautiful as it runs, and this gaming PC build is able to do both. Its design and color scheme make it a sci-fi styled marvel that would look impressive on any gamer's desk, and wouldn't look out of place in the Tron universe.

This is a PC build that does more with less, relying less on extensive modifications and instead using standard parts to create an incredible-looking system. The RGB lighting is the best feature here, managing to keep things lit up without going over the top, while the custom PC water cooling setup is left deliberately understated, despite its serious cooling potential.

Unlike the latest Blox Fruits codes or Dress to Impress codes, Haikyuu Legends codes won't get you currency, but they can have a direct effect on your skill level in the game, so take note.

Deliver At All Costs wowed during Steam Next Fest back in February. Mixing GTA, Crazy Taxi, and The Simpsons Hit and Run, it tasks you with carrying out a series of increasingly chaotic courier jobs while driving recklessly through highly destructible environments, with buildings crumbling and NPCs flying into the air, legs akimbo, as you go. The two-hour demo was the perfect taster of this mayhem, enough to make many of us, myself included, return to the driver's seat of our yellow stepside truck. But the full game somehow does both too much and not enough.

Ever since The Elder Scrolls Online came to consoles, players have been calling for crossplay. Fellow longstanding MMOs like Final Fantasy 14, Warframe, and New World: Aeternum all feature the ability to play across PC and console, and I've found that it's always a massive boon to the experience. So why isn't it in ESO yet? This is something Kinda Funny's Greg Miller asked the game's developers during a multi-part ESO podcast series, and it turns out Zenimax is hopeful to have it working one day.

Oblivion Remastered is just the latest in a long line of redesigns and polished-up versions of some of the best old games, and the Fallout series seems equally primed for such treatment.

But what about Interplay's beloved original? Series co-creator Tim Cain has been thinking about exactly that, and concludes that there are some pretty key challenges in the way.

I'm Captivated by the On and Off: Work-Life Imbalance Manga Art

One of Square Enix's most recent releases is On and Off: Work-Life Imbalance, a slice-of-life manga series that explores identity and relationships while also celebrating people expressing themselves through fashion. It's interesting from the outset, with the first volume both establishing how Akira Hanku and Sotaro Amata express themselves at work and at home and showing their possible relationship. They even respect each other completely, each appreciating the other's style! It seems promising, but what I think I'm starting to appreciate most is Shinnosuke Kanazawa's art.

Editor's Note: There will be minor spoilers for volume 1 of the On and Off: Work-Life Imbalance manga.

The thing about On and Off: Work-Life Imbalance is that it is both a celebration of two people unabashedly embracing styles they like, dressing in ways that make them feel comfortable, and being proud of that in their personal lives. Because they each embrace a different aesthetic, it means Shinnosuke Kanazawa gets to go all out on Rococo style Lolita dresses and elaborate punk designs. 

I'm Captivated by the On and Off: Work-Life Imbalance Manga Art

We see Sotaro's Lolita style first, and it's handled with so much care in both the initial introduction and all ensuing ones. First, we get a shots of specific elements of an outfit, like the detailed heels with matching stockings, a bonnet with a pigtail hairstyle, and lace on the cuffs of a dress' sleeves. When the full-body shot appears, there's focus on every ruffle and insert panels highlighting bows. Different angles are presented, so we can appreciate how the outfit is put together. And because Sotaro is shopping, we also get to see additional pieces. Even proper terminology and slang is used, with "Cha-Lolita" used for Classic Lolita during a daydream about a new look.

With Akira, it means the moment the character is off-work, we see how a put-together look masks someone who rocks a wolf cut, wears multiple piercings, and would look as comfortable in Vivienne Westwood, street punk styles as ska or skater attire. The first "look" emphasizes a fake neck tattoo, ear piercing with a chain that connects to one through a lower lip, a studded choker with chains dangling off of it, and multiple rings. There are rivets in the black, pinstripe pants, with a black belt with chains that match the necklace. There are deliberate tears in the pants and a white, oversized shirt. I could swear the shoes look like T.U.K.'s two-tone Viva Mondo Creepers. There are fingerless black gloves with zippers on them, and a oversized jacket with belts. Whenever Kanazawa draws the character, the art is clearly pulling from the progression of the fashion movement over the decades.

I even appreciate the care with which Shinnosuke Kanazawa depicts the professional attire for both Akira and Sotaro. That's how we see each of them for the "work" sides of their lives. In each case, they also seem to perfectly suit them and still somehow seem as detailed as the clothes they're most comfortable wearing. The first time we see Sotaro, he's in a three-piece suit. Kanazawa used shading techniques that somehow make it look expensive, and the tie has a pinstripe pattern. Attention is called to accessories, such as what seems like it would be a gold watch with a black face that ends up being the focal point of some close-up panels. Similar attention is paid to his loafers. He is designed to look the part of a professional, but there are hints at a bit of flashiness.

With Akira, we see how formal she looks in the On and Off: Work-Life Imbalance manga, but Shinnosuke Kanazawa's artwork also emphasizes practicality for her. She wears black vest and pencil skirt with white button-up shirt. It's impeccable, with every part in place. Her hair is tied back in a no-nonsense ponytail with a basic hair tie. Her shoes are black with a Cuban heel style, a short heel with a wide base designed for comfort instead of fashion. We can tell that she commits and is direct, making choices that emphasize that. In each case, these looks say a lot about the people.

I really appreciate the thought we can see Shinnosuke Kanazawa put into the design of the On and Off: Work-Life Imbalance characters, with the art in the manga looking extremely fashionable, realistic, and suited to each individuals. Their home life looks are incredible and intricate, showing elements of who they really are and how they feel comfortable. Their professional ones get the job done, but also offer hints at elements of their personalities even though they're obviously following office dress codes. I can't wait to see what each of them wear next.

Volume 1 of On and Off: Work-Life Imbalance is available now, and Square Enix will release volume 2 of the manga on September 16, 2025.
