This just makes me think of being 8 and playing hide and seek in air ride's free run mode

They probably 'notice' it but theyre not at that age they have a vocabulary to describe Artstyle or rendering techniques

Kids largely do not care at all about """polish""" the way adults think about it, they want ideas, and honestly ugly stuff does better with em because its easily replicable. I teach so many kids who get into art from drawing their roblox ocs and poppys playtime stuff

Pokemon definitely has a multimedia edge over other franchises but even without that push, yearly franchises have always done good with kids. Like even now those kids horror games do so well just because the episodic format gives em something to look forward to

two weeks later and i still can't get this out of head, especially as i work through some of my first FF games

the internet loves to give modern pokemon shit for its graphics, but by refusing to participate in the AAA graphics arms race, they have unambigiously dominated the culture. they won.

really one of the strangest media cycles in history, where mainstream media actively hid the fact that the columbine killers were popular upper class preppy kids with full on neo-nazi ideologies and instead pretended they were victims of bullying

for all it matters from a bluesky gamer account like me: no war in iran. this attack is horrific and all decent people of the world must oppose it with no hesitation or equivocation about iran's government or nuclear programs. that's irrelevant to the pointless depravity of this bloodshed

and countless lives destroyed because of it.

‘Uncle Grandpa’ creator Pete Browngardt retweets an old sketch of Uncle Grandpa with a gun in his mouth as a response to the Paramount/Warner Bros. merger news.

so bold of game freak to put annet futatabi in the next pokemon

every single time an epic choral jrpg song has english lyrics they're so bad it makes me go this is why you do it in latin or just make up some fithos lusec wecos vinosec nonsense

People who talk about game design and view games as art should make more analogies to other artforms & see if it sounds right in that context. A lot of conventional "design wisdom" sounds like absolutely bonkers corporate unofficial marketing wing nonsense when you apply it to any other medium

the best experience is measured by intrinsic factors

genuinely had no idea declines drops from declines drops would be here, hot diggity

the thing that a lot of people don't understand is that the NES/Famicom didn't have only one generational leap. It had two. It was basically three generations of technological and design leaps in a single console - it's just that the West got the NES already part-way through the second leap.

alien soldier is my favorite game cause you can tell it was made by a guy who wanted to fuck the megadrive

Don't let imposter syndrome stop you!! We want to hear what y'all got to share! 🎮✨🗣️

this one's pretty good yeah, it could pass easily as a mega man 10 sequel, and the ideas for stages and robot masters are authentic and creative in vibe.

I mean its a witch character with mega man abilities but it doesnt have that magical girl tv show factor or the mega man 'choose your route' factor

hi, I worked in indie games for 10 years and sorry, they're also burning down. you just don't hear about it because it doesn't make the news when a studio of 19 lays off 7, even when it's 200 small studios doing that

but i called it

your honor

mega man fan games

there's some good sailor moon beatemups and thats about all i can think of

i feel like the big indie game layup nobody has done yet is a mega man clone but with magical girls. like an actual school setting and a tone kinda like OG sailor moon and beating the stage bosses gives you new transformations

Could you imagine being Sonic and Eggman listening to this detective noir retelling of events and then he just stops to pine for this girl's mom. Like you know this girl and you know this girl's mom too and he starts fantasizing about her putting her arm around him. Cracking tf up
