i'm subsisting somewhere between 5 and 6.

one of those cool days where, at pens down, you've objectively made everything worse.

one of the great strengths of opus magnum is that you can just phone something in.

definitely done with re9 now. i liked it. re is like the only aaa thing i touch these days. the story is stupid and nothing any of the baddies did made sense. that's fine it's resident evil. but, maaan, the only person who got done more dirty than grace was claire.

the solution is to cover your tutorial text prompts with yellow paint

when i was at school my friends called me an anime pervert. and, while that was true, their reasoning was because i'd shown them the famous anime hentai porno movie: ghost in the shell

joining in with the violence series stats so far. what complicates things for malViolence and protoViolence is that they're both free games. they quite literally cost $0 dollars to pick up and play, and they're short, at ~2-3 hours each.

if you're working on an indie game you're probably making games for adults who have played something like your game before. you do not need to tutorial like you're nintendo or some mobile slop that wants to maximise funnel retention or w/e

if you are making a "premium game" (a game wot you pay money for) you do not need to make your onboarding a frictionless half hour, where people never get confused or lost and just chase a lightbox arrow around the screen. there is a baseline of investment and good will.

For anyone who would like the clip (including George).

just finished requiem. tbh if you think about any aspect of the story for more than 5 minutes it makes no sense at all, but it's okay because it's fun and i got to spot a bunting easter egg.

more games need the requiem structure. like you slowly creep through blighttown in dark souls, but when you get to quelaag some action game protagonist drops in, says "you're hot, but not really my type" and you juggle her with a sword for 5 minutes
