To commemorate Women's History Month, World Cafehas been looking back on a century's worth of music history. Every week in March, we've pinpointed distinct moments of every year from the past 100 years, a quarter century at a time.We started out in the early 20th century (1925-1949), when women like Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Maybelle Carter and Marian Anderson opened doors for the future success of women in music.Then, from 1950 to 1974, we encountered trailblazers like The Shirelles, Dolly Parton and Wendy Carlos.

Survival horror word-em-up Blood Typers rolls out the Scarlet Carpet for its grand finale update
2025-05-06 22:45:04| Spiritual Career Counseling
Blood Typers was one of my favourite indie picks of last month. A clever fusion of classic Resident Evil and The Typing Of The Dead with a little bit of proximity chat co-op chaos for spice. But much as I liked it, something was missingan ending. Despite not carrying any early access labelling, the game was still incomplete on release date, and had more than a few little rough edges to be sanded down.Todays update, The Scarlet Finale caps off a long series of hotfixes and balance tweaks with a major chunk of new content; the final story mission.
