Perfection💙

I spoke with Tonda Ros, creator of this year’s indie hit, Blue Prince, about how, as a child, an unexpected bequeathment - not unlike the one that powers his game - provided him a near endless supply of NES games.

Next week’s guest is Tonda Ros, creator of viral hit Blue Prince. In the episode, he reveals the unlikely “golden goose” that funded development and how teaching himself Unity opened the door to one of the most distinctive indie games of recent years. Not subscribed yet? Click here: bit.ly/43RMgx9

Eggplant Presents: A Year of UFO 50 - Seaside Drive We're joined by @dmullinsgames.bsky.social @dogubomb.bsky.social @glovetheglove.bsky.social to discuss the 48th game. “Nothing's more relaxing than a nice long drive by the sea...complete with plenty of gunfire!” eggplant.show/ep-a-year-of...

"At face value, two potential Game of the Year (GOTY) nominees, Dogubomb’s Blue Prince and Kojima Productions’ Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, seem like very different games, but both aim to reinvent our genre expectations." www.forbes.com/sites/gabiki...

Really enjoyed the Games Done Quick speed run of Blue Prince a couple of days ago. On top of that, thrilled to hear them shout out @cyan.com as such an inspiration behind Blue Prince. I always enjoy seeing Cyan getting some well-earned recognition :) (shoutout at 3:13) youtu.be/gtIsOsfHf1E?...

Blue Prince had me in a vice-like grip just a couple weeks ago, so this chat with @dogubomb.bsky.social was perfectly timed. Such a joy chatting design with this man. For all of you playing Blue Prince, you know you’re in for a treat with this ep. 🫡

From our first page, to our last, what we have imagined has sprung forth from the dreams and pages of your Art. Dreams are but portals, inscribed, yet now unbound. We touch them, and they are real. And they are real. Chev ah'shem rehlehm. Chev ah'shem bivdil.

📣HUGE Congrats to @dogubomb.bsky.social & @rawfury.bsky.social on the launch of 👑Blue Prince! 🤩 The Akupara Team took the liberty of making a lil fanart of 🐢Chronos himself in an iconic doorway...or 3💙 Who else is running to play this stylish exploration mystery? 👀 @blueprincegame.bsky.social

Thought of the day: We need to get some poster art up on opencritic.

This game... holy shit. If you like Outer Wilds, or Obra Dinn, or any other games that require thought and patience and a notebook handy, trust me when I tell you to mark April 10 on your calendar. I'll have more to say closer to then
