SORRY THAT YOU HAVE TO HAVE A BODY
By Karin Malady This could be about Elden Ring since everyone is talking about it, but there’s something else more important on my mind. That’s right, EverymanHYBRID, the slenderman ARG YouTube horror series that is basically the plot of Kingdom Hearts. Alternate Reality Games want you to feel like you’re in on a little secret….
FRED NOLAND INTERVIEW
By Bryn Gelbart Last time I was on Deep Hell I wrote about contract labor and the gig economy. That was through the lens of a handful of video games. Today, I’m talking to a real person about freelancing, writing and the difference between ambition and drive. That’s a big step up, if you…
AN OUTCRY (Developer Interview)
Over the holiday break of 2021, I had the pleasure of being included in the list of people cool enough to get a shot at playing AN OUTCRY.

I’M THINKIN ARBY’S
Full of blood and a suspicious combat cocktail. The purest arbiter against depression is action, and boy, the only action I wanna take is going to fucking work. Work makes me happy: it’s where I see my friends. I am so happy when I go to work. There’s no rush like clocking in and knowing…
