Notice how zombie placement, reaction speed, turn speed and movement speed are all dialed in to match the player's traversal limitations. There's incredible depth here that did not happen by accident. 414259

AshbornPhoenix @ashbornphoenix.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I wish when people discussed how the arcade model affected game difficulty they understood that the incentives wasn't just to make games as hard as possible (that would drive players away) but rather to hit that sweetspot where you go "man I was close, next time I'll do better." as much as possible. 000

AshbornPhoenix @ashbornphoenix.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Granted I do still think the game has a bit of an issue where it wants to have a bit more of a focus on action gamey combat then previous Castlvanias but not really fully committing, which ultimately still leaves that aspect feeling half-baked to me. 000
AshbornPhoenix @ashbornphoenix.bsky.social · 05/10/2026So upon finding out there was a 2nd weapon hidden in the Belmonts curse demo I decided to try them out and wow they feel so much better to use then the sword, like not only does hitting things actually feel good with them but they also have an actual launcher. 110
Reposted by AshbornPhoenixDarío @dariosamo.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I still see a lot of confusion about what decompilation, recompilation and ports are and what level of effort is involved in each type of project. It's important that people understand the difference, as recompilation took a drastically different meaning that when it was originally introduced. 4695316

AshbornPhoenix @ashbornphoenix.bsky.social · 04/10/2026It was also crucially not a dig at any kind of players, but rather a point that it is therefor on the developer to make sure that there isn't a way to optimize the fun out of a game. 010

AshbornPhoenix @ashbornphoenix.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Really not surprised that GenAI is enabling those in the game hobbyist space to just scrape up other peoples work so they can shit out things that look vaguely like a thing you would want and attach their name with no regards to quality or the consequences, afterall that what the tech is built on. 000
