What happens if you look up? We've been getting heaps of questions like this. Our whole game is made out of 1000s of layers of hand drawn illustrations, so understandable that people are curious. Here's how we handle how the player looks around: #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

X-Men '97 continues to be so good that it's genuinely hard to talk about, and makes me feel weirdly vulnerable to even recommend. (Maybe cause it brings me close or to tears most episodes.) If you've enjoyed ANY superhero thing this century, especially any X-Men thing, don't sleep on it. Seriously.

VSAV, +R, & BBCF represent different ends of pushing the genre to its max in the same direction. Natural culminations of the genre. True sicko games from the devs. Asuka 120% is an unnatural culmination pushed to its max. Hinokakera is the enthusiast maximalist game. CVS2 is SF pushed to its end.

Genuinely, this concern about AI is one of the reasons why I think having friction in video games is good and why it's increasingly important to have games that simply exist instead of catering to our expectations. Reposting this message from Kojima about "pre-digested" art:

And he said, "If everyone likes it, it means it's mainstream. It means it's conventional. It means it's already pre-digested for people to like it. And I don't want that. I want people to end up liking things they didn't like when they first encountered it, because that's where you really end up loving something."
