The Steven Universe cartoon is a conceptual gold mine, and an RPG may be the perfect kind of game to showcase its bubbly and feisty superhero personalities. Following its 2015 mobile RPG (Steven Universe: Attack The Light), developer Grumpyface successfully captures much of what makes the show special in Steven Universe: Save the Light. Though somewhat tragically, the otherwise lovable adventure is regularly disrupted by underlying technical issues.

For most of the game, it’s just Steven and up to three of his besties getting into some relatively standard RPG shenanigans. You explore the environment, pick up loot where you find it, run into wandering enemies, and take them on in active-time turn-based combat. Like its predecessor, Save the Light is an RPG from the Paper …

In the closing days of this year’s session, the Illinois Legislature passed a bill that will allow Illinois casinos to hire employees with felony convictions. The measure intended to expand the labor pool of hospitality industry employees has passed the House as the Senate Bill 1462 to head to Governor JB Pritzker for signing into law.

Expanded Labor Pool:

Update: At around 9 pm ET, Microsoft announced that “users should no longer be encountering issues signing in to Xbox Live and services.” The cause of the outage has not yet been revealed.

Original story:

The age of the AI PC is here, and with it lots of unnecessary fluff. Fluff, that is, such as the outrageous ditching of a perfectly respectable right-Ctrl (Menu) key in favour of a shiny new Copilot key. Apart from signalling to others nearby that you have a snazzy new computer, by default this key does nothing other than open the Copilot AI assistant. Well, that was the case.

It looks like we might soon get some actual use out of the Copilot key on our keyboards, because Microsoft is currently toying with the idea of allowing us to remap it to open other applications. It originally seemed like this was rolling out in testing right now for the Windows 11 Preview Build 22631.4387, but Microsoft has clarified that “this feature will roll out to Insiders in Release Preview…
