  "account": "GOG, the DRM-free digital game distribution platform, has embarked on a new venture in publishing, partnering with Retrovibe, an independent publisher. This collaboration comes as GOG separates from its former owner, CD Projekt, and returns to the control of its original co-founder, Michał Kiciński. The new initiative, called Retrovibe by GOG, aims to support independent developers in releasing their games on various platforms, including PC and consoles. Kiciński, who owns a 50% stake in Retrovibe, sees an alignment between GOG's focus on classic games and Retrovibe's emphasis on games with a classic essence. The partnership is a natural fit, given Kiciński's ownership of both companies. The new publishing house has already released its first title, Cop Bastard, which is set to hit storefronts on October 29th. A second game, Project Warlock: Lost Chapters, a boomer shooter, is also in the works. Interestingly, while these games will be available on GOG, they are not exclusive to the platform, as they also have Steam listings, which is a welcome development given that GOG's Galaxy client does not yet support Linux.",
