I may not like this company, but this still is a big hit in my book.

Today
Everyday the gaming community grows larger due to the welcoming feeling the community has (other than the toxic 12 year olds who spend 16+ hours on fps thinking they're good). No matter what style you want there is a game for it. Puzzle, Adventure, and many more even including making the game is a game in it self. The world has so many changes daily that its nearly impossible to show off the ones I want to without making this super large.
