Developers of your favourite games share what they're most proud of making
Times are strange and frightening. But one point of great solace for me has been hearing people celebrating things in their lives. It feels especially important right now to hold on to what makes us all proud about what we do and who we are. And what I really love is people showi

Have You Played Minit?
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time… This year’s E3 may have been dubbed “the year of the time-loop game”, but I’d argue there’s nothing as tight or as satisfying in this emerging subgenre as the 60-second sojou

Nowhere is safe from Minit's shark
Haunting the waterways of Minit’s Groundhog Day-cursed island is an immortal shark with a penchant for snacking on one-bit bird creatures. Oceans, caves, streams – anywhere you take a swim, players can expect Minit Shark (doo doo doo doo doo). Except that wasn’t exactly what the

Halloween 2018 Special: Some lovely games!
Video games, you may have noticed, are often a little bit horrid. All sorts of naughtiness, and a distinct lack of people just being kind to one another. What are we like?! But fortunately there are games that make an exception to the potty-mouthed meanies that dominate, and toda

Minit consumes your precious time in gleefully silly ways
Chances are you ve caught wind of Minit between its initial release and the clamor for a Switch port. It s a wee, wonderful, one-bit adventure where, thanks to a cursed blade, you die every 60 seconds. While it s a romping hoot of a game, it also blatantly wastes your time. I mea

Games need to take a Minit and think about their huge worlds
Time limits are a much maligned bit of game design. A single level with a race against time is fine, Halo's final warthog run or Call of Duty Modern Warfare's desperate fight through a nuclear silo. But turn that into a whole game? People still argue over The Legend of Zelda: Maj

The making of Minit: how constraints led to an indie gem
“So we kind of said this is a one time thing. We’re all coming together to work on this one project.” That sentiment is very much the spirit of Minit itself. The adventure game where you’re stuck in a loop and each life lasts sixty seconds is all about doing as much as you can in

Minit review - a bite-sized marvel
Just the idea of Minit is enough to make me squirm. It's the time limit that does it; an ever-marching expiry date that's impervious to pleads or procrastination, a silent but ever-present threat that'll see you fall to the ground and die every sixty seconds, over and over again.

This tiny man in Minit is my fave character of 2018 so far
Minit gives you sixty seconds to achieve great things. As soon as you wake, in whichever place you’re currently calling home, a timer begins to countdown and when a minute has expired, you die and restart. In that time, you might find a useful item, which will be close at hand in

Wot I Think: Minit
Minit is that most rare of joyful things: A really good idea, done really well. In Minit you play a little bird-like pixel character who lives in a black and white pixel world, and is cursed with only ever living for a single minute. And yet despite this limitation, it presents a
