The unveiling of Lego Horizon Adventures was not a surprise. As is often the case around major debuts, hints and details had leaked out in the days before. What was surprising, however, was that not only is the game coming to PlayStation 5 and PC (as expected), but it is also coming to Nintendo Switch.

The last week in LA was pretty good. I enjoyed it, at least. This past week, whatever you call it – Summer Games Fest or Not-E3 or E3 lite or the ghost of E3 (oh I like that, something that's still here but also not really) – had some strong announcements, some games you could actually play, and a bunch of nicely put together showcases. Ultimately, we're all beholden to the line-up.

When EA unexpectedly dropped their back catalog just hours after her game’s release, it derailed Gittins’ carefully planned path to success. Her TikTok post venting her frustration about the situation reached the toxic part of the gaming community, resulting in a barrage of harassment, including death threats.

Hi everyone, I’m facing an issue with Spine in CC 3.8.0. I tried to create a skeleton node at runtime and load SkeletonData from a resource. The node and sp.Skeleton component were successfully created, but it only shows a static image; the animation is not running. Here is the code: resources.load('animations/rambu', sp.SkeletonData, (err, skeletonData) => { if (err) { error(err); return; } const anims = Object.keys(skeletonData.getAnimsEnum()).filter(key => key.

I have already tried that, but it’s not working. There is no issue if I create a node manually using the editor, this issue only appears when creating a node (including instantiating a prefab) programmatically.
