Industrial Technology and Witchcraft has revealed FLESHBAG, a 3D physics sandbox for PC where the test subject is not a ragdoll but a voxel man with feelings, and playtest sign-ups are open now on Steam.

The game, published by Bonus Stage Publishing, puts one very unlucky guy at the centre of your experiments. He is made of voxels, with anatomically correct intestines, organs, a brain, two eyes and veins, and each part can be damaged on its own. His face shows his pain and his voice tells you about it, as he begs you to stop. “We gave him feelings because it is funnier when he minds,” said Theo from Industrial Technology and Witchcraft.

Your job is to build machines from blades, motors and firearms and see what they do to him. A mixer and an explosive hot wire are already in the game, and you can stack a hundred of them into a campfire. The team says there is also a cosy side: you can build him a cabin with furniture and a proper bed, sing him a good night song, and then set it on fire.

The reveal comes with the game’s first trailer and a Steam page, with playtest sign-ups open today. The playtest itself opens later, and a demo is planned before Early Access. No release date has been announced, and the game is made for adults.

FLESHBAG is the first game from Industrial Technology and Witchcraft, a developer based in Berlin, and is published by Bonus Stage Publishing, based in Oulu, Finland. Bonus Stage usually publishes hobby-based games about snowmobiles, disc golf and fishing. “I have played a lot of physics sandboxes. FLESHBAG is the first one where I felt bad for the ragdoll,” said Asmo Saloranta, CEO and Founder at Bonus Stage Publishing.

Humanity’s last hope is now a mission you can step inside. Project Hail Mary: Journey Among the Stars is out now, a mixed-reality adventure that tells a previously untold chapter of Andy Weir’s bestselling sci-fi universe.

The immersive mixed reality experience launched on PICO, Android XR and Meta Quest 3/3S. It comes from Maze Theory, the award-winning London-based immersive entertainment studio behind Peaky Blinders: The King’s Ransom and Doctor Who: The Edge of Time.

Players step into the role of Ryland Grace. Ryland Grace and his friend and crewmate Rocky must work together in the face of disaster to keep the Hail Mary intact and bring their world-saving cargo to Eridani — Rocky’s home planet, and Grace’s new home.

It is a story of trust and communication between species. As this mixed-reality experience blends your physical environment with the Hail Mary itself, players diagnose problems, improvise solutions and push the limits of science and engineering to keep the mission alive.

Along the way, players work alongside Rocky to keep the mission alive, diagnose failing systems and improvise scientific solutions, and manage their ship and its precious cargo as they travel through the stars — experiencing humanity’s last hope firsthand.

Watch the launch trailer below.
