[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC.
