Going the Distance: How CAKE Taught Me to Be Unabashed in My Musical Taste
In our endless appetite for the consumption of culture, to loudly have disdain for something is worth as much as earnest appreciation for the form. When you’re young it’s often especially important to find communion amongst others that share the same contempt for things you detest. Hating something easily becomes a personality, it’s important to like and dislike the right things, lest our tastes stray us too far from the most populated path. No band tested this theory for me like CAKE. I discovered the Sacramento-based band while working in a grocery store. A song came on the radio sometime after 8 pm, just before closing. This was when we would clean our departments, but more importantly, it was our chance to let loose a bit. We’d party a little and do our best to maintain our spirits as ...

After the Fall Delivers a VR Co-Op Zombie-Slaying Adventure From Arizona Sunshine Team
On paper, After the Fall is yet another zombie apocalypse-based virtual reality game. In 2022, that’s not exactly newsworthy. Hell, the title’s Dutch developers at Vertigo Games have even already released one of the genre’s earliest defining games with 2016’s Arizona Sunshine. But in (virtual) reality, After the Fall is greater than the sum of its parts. Aside from providing an action-heavy blizzard-filled festival of violence that feels straight out of your favorite ‘80s action movies, After the Fall provides one of the rarest commodities in the entire gaming industry: a fleshed-out VR co-op experience. Perhaps it’s because the Vertigo Games team didn’t have to focus on how to do VR zombies, so they were able to put the emphasis on how to make squad-based VR gameplay that’s actually fun t...
