S/O @eteogreg.bsky.social & @goneefk.bsky.social for inviting me to contribute to this month's issue of Eteo Archetypes! Managed to sneak some time away from my fatherly duties to write about one of my favorite videogame chase sequences.

One of the most difficult things to express is how all ideas start off as half-formed frames, little corner doodles, and while your job is to make them undeniably real and recognisable, a little part of you will always see them as little more than a passing thought.

Really nice example of designing a character for the player camera

This is a really great piece that kind of digs at the heart of why I love Rebirth so much. There's an argument that there's an intetionality behind its "bloat." A sense of whimsy and illustration that otherwise wouldn't be there.

Minigames are littered throughout the world of FFVII Rebirth, they create a gestalt of storytelling throughout its world, @yourkyotowife.bsky.social wrote a fantastic piece for us about it. Enjoy!

Great piece from Malindy here examining the enormous collection of minigames in FFVII Rebirth, and how these build up a picture of a Rebirth's world beyond the main storyline and combat-focused gameplay. Have a read!
