Once you've befriended Pochacco in Hello Kitty Island Adventure, he lets you know that fan-favorite Sanrio character Gudetama can be found dotted around the island as small figurines.

Only one of these Gudetamas spawns each week, and, luckily, its location is on a simple rotation, and we've got them all right here.

PCGamesN Monday, February 17, 2025 4:58 AM  When is the Judas release date? The BioShock series left an indelible mark on the videogame landscape. Irrational's acclaimed first-person shooter explored a dystopian world filled with ambitious technology, extraordinary abilities, and top-notch storytelling. Now, BioShock creative director brings us a sci-fi spiritual successor - and no, it's not System Shock. Judas is an upcoming game by Ghost Story Games, an indie studio staffed by former Irrational Games developers led by Ken Levine himself. This single-player story game is set aboard a space station that's descended into chaos. Sound familiar? Judas looks like the perfect blend of BioShock and System Shock, and early gameplay suggests it builds upon the same design principles as its predecessors. Now that it's officially 2025, we're in the launch year for Judas, although there has been a distinct lack of recent news around the title. We've got all you need to know ahead of the release.

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Monday, February 17, 2025 5:41 AM  I generally avoid using the word 'darling' as an adjective because it makes you sound like an bourgeois playwright two bottles of sherry deep into a nervous breakdown. Lord Of The Rings tainted the word 'precious' forever, and the term 'wholesome' has been Cronenberged to hideous effect. 'Cute' is too pat, I use 'adorable' too much, and you cannot make me say 'Kawaii' under any circumstances. All that said, management sim Mudborne makes my eyes go wide and my heart swell like a marshmallow dropped in a pond full of excellent frogs. It's releasing March 20th on World Frog Day, and a portion of the profits will go to amphibian, wetland, and environmental charities. Have a Steam demo. God I love that soundtrack. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Monday, February 17, 2025 5:33 AM  A team of Diablo speedrunners spent months searching the 1996 RPG's 2.2 billion valid randomly generated dungeon seeds to find the layout used in a stupidly lucky speedrun they suspected to be illegitimate, says a new report from Ars Technica's Kyle Orland. The three minute, 12 second sorcerer run by Maciej "Groobo" Maselewski was first uploaded to Speed Demos Archive in 2009. Watching it "feels like watching someone win the lottery," writes Orland, thanks to a seemingly random streak of entrance and exit stairways right next to each other, allowing for a rapid, safe descent through the dungeon. Groobo lucked out again on the ninth floor, nabbing the Naj's Puzzler item needed for later teleporting exploits. |

Let's have a look at this week's new PC games, then. |

Along with the original Doom, Half-Life is generally regarded as one of the most influential first-person shooters of all time. That alone is enough to cement its place in gaming history. However, the continued efforts of the modding community also helps keep Valve's classic in the limelight.
In this instance, we're being transported back to World War I, thanks to ModDB user eyeling. Although it's not out yet, "In Mute Witness Stand" is a different take on Half-Life, with it being set in the trenches during the Great War of 1914-1918.
While the mod can be described as a reimagining of the horrors of the war, there's definitely a sense that "horror" is more what the creator is aiming for here. As well as being able to face off against the Germans, you'll also be fighting against an "army of the dead."
Also rabbits and rats, for some reason
The mod itself – which will have both singleplayer and co-op elements – puts you in the shoes of the good old-fashioned "British Tommies," battling against the forces of evil, with eyeling saying that some of the maps have been based on real-life battles and locations, such as the Charge at the Somme and the First Battle of Gaza.
You'll come up against such "post-living" foes as Undead Tommies (I think the image above shows one of them), as well as Trench Crawlers, which are said to "feast on dying soldiers." Of course, this is a WWI simulator as well, so you'll also be having a bit of a set-to with the German army, which includes snipers, landmines, and artillery.
It seems as though this mod is aiming for a sense of realism in terms of warfare, but with a nice dollop of the supernatural thrown in there for good measure. It certainly seems like it's a far cry from what we come to expect from a Half-Life game at any rate.
