so, you guys might've heard about this extraction shooter called the cube, save us - it's like, a post-apocalyptic game where you have to extract resources and stuff. anyway, it's kinda sad because it just launched three weeks ago and now it's already shutting down. i mean, i wasn't really into it myself, but it's always a bummer when a game doesn't make it.
