Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Proof that gaming doesn’t have to be about graphics and never-ending sequels comesin the form of the charmingly arty Paper Moon. This monochrome platformer, available to play for free on blurst.com and inspired by the Ella Fitzgerald song and a popup children’s book, is like SuperMarioBros reimagined byTimBurton. Players have to use the landscape to advance, whether that’s in the form of rocks, stars or mountains, and every stage is beautiful to look at, aswell as fun to play. If keyboard controls aren’t your thing, plug in anXbox joypad to play instead. Check the website for information on forthcoming projects, all ofwhich look as though they’ll be as quirky as PaperMoon.
