At least my last movie was Blade Runner 2049 in IMAX.
Point taken though- its an unsurprising list of techbro judgments.

06.08.2025 03:39 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Also interesting how horror is a frequent sure bet in the film industry when it comes to investment vs. return. Low investment, low risk, high potential for good ratio of return.
My guess is indie games figured out the same reasoning.
Now I know why I love horror/paranormal.
Remedy is probably the lone exception, I am not sure how they do it.
p.s. if you are a DC comics nerd there are some interesting trivia RE: #Batman #Gotham #DC #DCComics

Epyx published Rogue???
A veil has been lifted.
I was somehow aware of all other Epyx games except that one.
Don't get me started, I need to focus...

7 levels sketched in ~20 minutes.
Helpful 3D exercise, but not a substitute for long, detailed work.
Fool your short attention span brain into feeling productive!

In Arkham, I prototyped a CSI lab puzzle where players discover the creation of Man-Bats.
The fantasy of "world's greatest detective"- Before the final "2D" system, spline cameras zoomed into narrative puzzles.

Oh I thought you were saying the one on the box cover was right but the interior one was wrong. I love original poster illustrations too- but Iβd only ever seen the 2nd image for Mad Max.

16.06.2025 18:37 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Yeah the rate at which it enshittified since I left is impressive.

If a sequel/reboot of a successful game is greenlit or funded, then thatβs just sucking a preexisting money teat.
If the formula of another successful game is greenlit or funded then thatβs just stupid magical thinking.
Retrospective of my Gotham Knights #leveldesign!
Gotham University began the main story, also serving as a tutorial level. For a grounded sense of place, layout was re-imagined as looped circular paths connecting 3 campus buildings to a central plaza.

Not every game can or should target the GTA VI demographic.
Yeah sorry it is sarcasm. After Kaepernick, it was pretty clear they held no serious values.
