Sure, I’ll take a crack at it. Here goes:

So, get this—Scottish dev NoCode just flipped its name to Screen Burn. Wild, right? Alright, hear me out. They basically said on their site that “NoCode” doesn’t jive with who they are anymore. Founded way back in 2015, they were all about making games without, well, a coder. Clever, I guess? They’ve done some cool stuff like Stories Untold and Observation. And oh, they’re the brains behind the upcoming Silent Hill: Townfall for Konami. Big deal? Totally.
Anyway, they said something like this: “Now we’ve got coders all over the place, crucial team members. A million other reasons too, but that name? Nah, it’s toast.” I mean, “NoCode” started popping up everywhere — app development courses and whatnot. Their inbox? Absolute chaos.
So they’re like, “Wait, if that’s not us anymore, what is? What have we really been, all along?” The answer hit them like a brick. They’re all about old-school vibes. Think analogue TVs, 3.5” disks. Super nostalgic, kinda flawed. But isn’t that real life? Games that just linger with you, sticking around like that burnout mark on an arcade screen. You know the one. It’s like the games have souls or something, haunting you long after the lights go out.
