It looks like Rockstar is gearing up Red Dead Redemption for another round on PC. Files for the original game and its expansion have shown up in the latest launcher update, presumably in preparation for an imminent remastered release.

With Mac OS X Leopard, which was released in 2007, Apple added a feature called “Web Clip” to Dashboard. This allowed users to turn any part of a website into a live widget that could then be added to Dashboard and would update in real-time.

While Dashboard on the Mac is dead, a new app this week brings the Web Clip idea back to life – this time on Apple Vision Pro.

Game Description Another crab’s treasure is a soulslike adventure set in a crumbling underwater world. As kril the hermit crab, you’ll need to wear the trash around you as shells to withstand attacks from enemies many times your size. Embark on an epic treasure hunt to buy back your repossessed shell, and discover the dark secrets behind the polluted ocean.

Trash or treasure?
In this undersea society, trash is not only a way of life, but a valuable resource, used for everything from fashion to firearms. But with the presence of trash comes a mysterious infection known as the gunk, which could spell doom for the entire ocean.

Learn from nature:
As kril explores the ocean, he’ll gain a variety of umami techniques—powerful attacks learned from the denizens of the seas. Punch your enemies with the overwhelming might of a mantis shrimp, ensnare them with the horrifying bobbit worm, and much more.

Unexplored depths:
The ocean goes deeper than one can imagine. Fight your way through kelp forests, coral reefs, sand castle cities, and even the unfathomable darkness of the deep-sea trenches, all in the name of getting back your prized shell.

Play at your own pace:
Designed to be an approachable experience for newer soulslike players as well as provide a challenge for hardcore fans, another crab’s treasure offers something for any level of skill or time commitment. Assist options are provided for those seeking a less frustrating experience, but gluttons for punishment are sure to find the default game a challenge.

• A grand undersea world to explore

• A variety of powerful Umami Abilities to smite your enemies
