Do you think we chose the right games to compare ourselves to or should we change it up?

Watch the video if you want context for the question

Though the real question is would you kiss Tony Hawk?

Silly Little Ideas
YouTube video by Two Brain Games Silly Little Ideas

I usually make videos about specific aspects of working on #indiegames, but this one is more about ideas.

If you watch it, do you feel the same way about feedback with your creative projects? Or do you disagree?

Lots of reddit scrolling on subs like r/y2kaesthetics and Pinterest, YouTube videos covering the design language of the era, Bryce 3D renders wherever I can find them, and of course, watching Toonami streams haha.

Sometimes research is the fun part!

Thank you! I'm currently working on making more background art to break up the visuals.

Every Day is Y2k
YouTube video by Two Brain Games Every Day is Y2k

Anyone else really enjoy #y2k / #cybercore visuals? Or is my fascination with chrome balls set against a blue background more of a Freudian thing?

Only time will tell...

Had an amazing time at #DreamHackDallas! 🐍👊
Watching people laugh, and learn what happens when you provoke the wrong NPC was everything! 😆

Huge thanks to everyone who stopped by the booth — you made it unforgettable 💚💙

Nostalgia PT. 1
YouTube video by Two Brain Games Nostalgia PT. 1

A short video I made talking about my thoughts on #nostalgia for better or worse, especially since the games we make are usually inspired by the past in one way or another.

Would love to hear your take on the subject :D

I made a little video showing off the mousepad I had made for our #indiegame #CarnageKartX because I love it!

What else should I make? Shirts? Stickers? A line of affordable yet full-bodied wines?

We recently released an update for our Hack N' Slash kart #indiegame #CarnageKartX and I stayed up all night making a video for it, which you can now see below.
