Enter the Void (It’s Not Oblivion, It’s a Neat Indie Game)
Kotaku posted this quip clip of an indie game named Void, which was neat enough I had to share it with you all. It looks to do for time-travel what Portal did with portals and physics — i.e., remind you that not all first-person games have to be first-person shooters to be crazy fun. Here, it appears you manipulate pockets of time to solve puzzles; I especially like the Fringe-esque window into the past — or is it future? Oh, who knows. All I know is that the game is available for PC right this second and it’s free.

Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others.

Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
