OneShot is a
puzzle-
adventure game developed by
indie studio Future Cat and published by Degica. Based on a free version released online on June 30, 2014, it was released for
Windows on December 8, 2016. A console adaptation, OneShot: World Machine Edition, was released for
Nintendo Switch,
PlayStation 4, and
Xbox One on September 22, 2022. OneShot's gameplay and plot break the
fourth wall and involve
metafictional elements. Many puzzles involve interacting with the computer's
operating system outside of the game. Narratively, the player is separate from the protagonist, Niko. The latter arrives in a world without sunlight and aims to restore it by replacing its sun, a lightbulb, at the top of a tower. OneShot was developed in
RPG Maker XP. The game received positive reviews from critics, who praised the story, art, and metafictional aspects of gameplay, including the relationship between the player and Niko. In 2017, the game was nominated for the PC Game of the Year category at the
Golden Joystick Awards. (Full article...)
Gibson's albatross (Diomedea antipodensis gibsoni) is a large seabird in the
albatross family, Diomedeidae, named after the Australian amateur ornithologist
John Douglas Gibson. It is found principally in the
Auckland Islands of New Zealand, foraging in the
Tasman Sea, with most individuals nesting on
Adams Island. Gibson's albatross is classified as part of the same species as the
Antipodean albatross, but is generally paler in colour. Adult birds are white on the back, with white plumage on the head and body and fine grey barring. The tail is white with black edges, except in older males in which it may be completely white, while the bill is pale pink. This Gibson's albatross was photographed in flight off the south-eastern coast of
Tasmania, Australia.
