Might be a dumb question, but what are the alternatives ?
We hear about publishers (and all the issues that entails) all the time, but it also takes so much space it looks like the only solution, short of being able to sustain one's self for the whole dev cycle, which is quite a luxury.

That's...
A very beautiful point, indeed

But doing so would make it lose its meaning after a bit, whereas doing it on her birthday allows us to always remember why it should be celebrated

So You Want to Write Iambic Pentameter
In which I share the dirty secrets of the world's least useful skill
Six years ago, I wrote most of the Tragedian dialogue for Pathologic 2 in iambic pentameter. I'm back now doing the same for Pathologic 3. I figured it was helpful to write a guide on *how* I did it – in case I get hit by a bus and the team has to carry on without me.

As a european, I did a quick calculation. Assuming the lowest listed value, and that it's before taxes, it would be equivalent to *seventeen* years of what I earned at a min wage job. (Considering that game jobs are often min wage or close to, while still very rare, it hurts even more)

Timespinner ?
It's a cool and somewhat short metroidvania, with some cute lesbean stuff in one questline.
And Get in the car loser, it's an indie rpg that's very very gay (though cw, it also has heavy stuff with fashs)
Cassette Beasts, I think it has lesbian stuff in it ?

Bonus anecdote, peeling from the opposite end is also how you can make the cartoon/mario kart banana peel with the stem on top and the three skin parts to make it stand

Seeing the title, I was *ready* to recommend CDC if it wasn't in the list.
It's the only one I knew about before reading it, and it was *so* refreshing to play through compared to...
Well, literally what you talk about in the intro.
Really interesting article, will read the other parts later!

Et le pire, c'est que maintenant c'est facile à faire.
Notamment sur Unity (vu que c'est ce que TC utilise), on peut littéralement faire des binding sur la position du clavier, donc même pas besoin de faire une différence az/qw

Sherlock Holmes is a bit more complicated.
See, the books are considered separately, for legal purpose, and SH became nicer with time.
Due to this, there was a period during which asshole SH was in the public domain, but nice SH wasn't, hence the tendency for the misanthropist.

Don't worry, even Souls fans are tired of those.
The best ones do something else than copy the aesthetic, like Another Crabs treasure, or NiOh (this one is still bleak, but has colors and a completely different narrative focus/gameplay flow)

Just need about a thousand artists and sound designers for all the useless (and thus absolutely core) interactions with everything in the background.
(For real tho, those games were amazing, and something new in that style would be great)

One thing I "love" about today society is the incentive to "monetize your hobbies" while also strangling the options to do so as much as possible and only being worth for the best of bests, without allowing easy room to grow since results must be immediate
Very logic and healthy stuff
