Is there something about interactivity that makes the audience ultimately feel like they should have complete control over the artwork? Can't help but think that this person interacts directly with her films and shows like a video game and in games her request might even be considered mainstream.

you might notice that in each clip or screenshot i post of amazing treasure valley, the player character, known as a Puppet Body, looks different. that's because you can customise them! you can visit various places around the valley to change your head shape, face, body, and colour palette.

Phantasy Star II celebrates its 37th anniversary today, and we have two great interviews covering its development. This one comes from The World of Phantasy Star; my favorite detail is how the fiendishly complex dungeons were the result of a tryharding new employee. shmuplations.com/phantasystar...

This is cool: extremely well-drawn comic about the fighting game community.

My physical copy of Animal Well arrived this week, so excited to see it! @mossmouth.bsky.social did a fantastic job with the cover art, it’s a beauty!

Yasushi Nirasawa - one of the GOATs of monster design! So many of his monsters are cool head-to-toe, but he could also turn silly ideas, like this watermelon monster, into solid gold with inventive thematic design and asymmetry. Even common decorations like skulls could feel new in his hands.

"Light RPG elements and resource management spice up the brain-stretching core gameplay of this unique 'logic puzzle roguelite', where you have to figure out which treasure chests are lying Mimics." 👍Derek Likes Mimic Logic: store.steampowered.com/curator/4057...

Good morning! I wrote a book! @flantz.bsky.social called it “the definitive history of procedural generation in video games” which is just about the best thing that can happen to a book. Tell your friends, enemies and book-loving acquaintances!

Hell yeah! @fourbitfriday.bsky.social and team have made one heck of a fun game: a turn-based RL that often feels like a frantic arcade title, with the added satisfaction of sudsing up a variety of grimy locations and monsters. 🫧🧼 Solo Mode is also available btw! That's how I played.

BTW in case you're interested, you can actually play the original PC-88 version of Hydlide on Nintendo Switch, courtesy of EGGCONSOLE! 🔗 www.nintendo.com/us/store/pro...

While we're celebrating Zelda's 40th, I want to give some love to some of the foundational action adventure games that predated it. Hydlide, in particular, deserves more respect outside of Japan for what it did for the genre in '84 (PC88). Tower of Druaga, Courageous Perseus, Dragon Slayer, Hydlide

Shout out to The Legend of Zelda after 40 years! A game whose sense of exploration and adventure still feels unparalleled to me in many ways. Art scans courtesy of @historyofhyrule.com: www.flickr.com/photos/histo... Hand-drawn map by my dad, from when we played the game together in the 80s.

Genuinely unnerving trailer for this upcoming stop-motion horror game. Just like the horror movies I'm interested in, I'm alternately excited and apprehensive to see what it's about! And the team's previous games, Judero/Mashina (also stop-motion) are on sale: store.steampowered.com/bundle/49099...
