Jusant was released 2 years ago today! I couldn't have wished for a better reception. Thanks to every person who played this game (you are MANY), and a special <3 to all those who shared how it made them feel. Each comment, message, essay and critic I've seen helped me continue writing for games 🌱💫

Hi everyone! I'm Félix, a writer with 10 years' experience, first in the comic book industry, then in video games. I’m the narrative designer and writer of Jusant, and I'm currently working on Aphelion 🪐 with a bunch of cool peeps at Don't Nod!

On the background is the Tower, a unique mountain that you're tasked to climb and explore in the game.

The writing of the Eric TV series is superb, and everyone plays accordingly, but I particularly loved those two <3

Stills from the Eric tv series showing the character named Michael Ledroit, played by McKinley Belcher III. He's in charge of investigating the disparition of two young boys. He's also black, and gay, trying to survive in a mostly racist and homophobic NYPD.

Just finished watching the Eric miniseries on Netflix. Mesmerizing. Set in 80s New York, it starts with the disappearance of a child, and ends up being about so much more. I ugly cried twice at the end and I will rewatch, that’s for sure. Also: puppets!

Poster for the Eric miniseries produced by Netflix. It shows a portrait of the character named Vincent Anderson, played by Benedict Cumberbatch. Behind him, too big to fit in the fram, is a huge hairy monster with horns, big teeth and a blue face named Eric. A caption says "The real monsters aren't under the bed"

Stills from the Eric tv series showing the characters named Cassie Anderson and Vincent Anderson, played respectively by Gaby Hoffmann and Benedict Cumberbatch. They're seated and interviewed by a panel of journalists. Behind them, cut by the frame, are two police officers in costumes. In the story, the Anderson's are the parents of a child that disappears.

Stills from the Eric tv series showing the character named Cecile Rochelle, played by Adepero Oduye. She's seated, leaning against the wall, and looks to her right. In the story, Cecile Rochelle is the mother of a child that disappeared some time ago. She's actually waiting at the police station to get answers.

Stills from the Eric tv series showing the character Vincent Anderson and his colleague recording a new emission of their puppet show. Everything is brightly colored, inspired by the muppet show.

📚 Lore .1, by @julesnaleb.bsky.social, self published. Each page is a gem.

Picture of the cover of Lore .1, that shows three people in a yellow field, with wind turbines in the background, and the cover of Ish & Mima, with two people sitting and hugging each other while looking at us, seemingly posing for a photograph. Both are made by artist and author Jules Naleb. Colors are vibrant.

A page from the self published “Lore .1” fanzine by Jules Naleb. Divided in six equal panels, it shows a sort of chemical or magical reaction where a smiling particle or drop of water gets dramatically transformed in a dark, charcoal ball and then a glowing star.

A page from the self published “Lore .1” fanzine by Jules Naleb. We see two characters sitting on a round, futuristic object that look like the base of a cut tree. They’re in the middle of a field, with wind turbines in the background, one of them looks at what ressemble a radio.
A text says: “The sky is heavy, a storm is coming, even the wind harvester moved down to this field. Come one Kainos, let’s go back, we’ll try again tomorrow.” To witch the other character answers “-Mmmh…”

📚 Leftstar & the Strange Occurence, by @noseturquoise.bsky.social First published by @shortboxcomicsfair.bsky.social Main theme could have been explored with more clarity, but it’s quite surprising and characters are lovely. And the art is gorgeous, with a fun and poetic layout. Inspiring read ✨

A picture of the comic book titled “Leftstar et l’étrange péripétie » (French edition of Leftstar and the strange occurrence) by Jean Fhilippe. The cover shows a strange, hooded person that seems to do magic, and an ominous, dark figure that looks like a bat. The book is on a table.

A picture of the first page of the comic book “Leftstar and the strange occurrence” by Jean Fhilippe. In a series of four panels, we approach a lonely figure wearing a cape, standing by a palm tree and watching the see. The cape is black, dotted with white like a starry night . Lines are loose but evocative, it’s all in black and white.

A picture of a page from the comic book “Leftstar and the strange occurrence” by Jean Fhilippe. Full page panel showing a giant, dark bar flying in daylight, with cloudy sky in the background. The figure of the bat is just a sharp, black patch while the clouds look like drawn with crayons.

Finally got myself to watch Alien (1979). Ten minutes in and I knew it was gonna be one of my favorite movie. From the set designs to the rolled up cigarettes, attention to costumes and daily gestures, social frictions in the crew... I love how analog, tactile, tense and rough that future is.

I haven't shared it here yet, but Jusant is out! It's been a crazy week and I'm quite overwhelmed by the reception. I was really stressed about the release but people seem to like it! One thing I didn't expect is how much I'm learning just by reading reviews and watching people react to the game 🌱💕

Feels like for the past 30 years, "realistic looking" racing games have always started by asking me to choose between the same 3 or something cars, and I don't understand why?

Start screen for the game The Need for Speed, out in 1994. It makes us choose two cars and a circuit. Here, the player has selected a red Toyota Supra Turbo and a green Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1.

Vehicle selection screen of the game Burnout, out in 2001. Here, the player has selected a red sport coupé that looks like a Japanese sports car.

Start screen for the game Forza Horizon 3, out in 2016. It makes us choose between three cars: a japanese sports car, an american supercar and a european luxury berline.
