Demolition simulator turned destructive puzzle-heist Teardown updated with Steam Workshop support on March 4th , and players have already gotten to work on some great new maps, playgrounds, minigames, and tools. Specifically: Modder Fall Guy 2106 has obviously made a Garry's Mod-style physics gun and a Half-Life 2 gravity gun for Teardown. There are great maps to play with that new reality-defying tool in as well. The neato Junkyard map has a load of cool toys to smash cars with.

The Atari 2600 is decades old, but a few industry pioneers aren't giving up on the system yet. Alongside ex-Activision game designers Garry and Dan Kitchen, Activision co-founder David Crane has formed Audacity Games to develop entirely new games on the console--and that's just the beginning. Audacity Games is a new publisher "focused on designing and publishing boxed game products for a variety of retro game systems," the company said in a press release.
