Tomorrow, Relooted hits Steam! Before (or after) you play, listen to this interview with developers @benjamming.bsky.social and @blckporcelain.bsky.social. Learning the differences between Afrofuturism and Africanfuturism helped me better understand the game's ambitions!

In the 2010s, the Icelandic tv station Channel 2 accidentally added subtitles from a gritty crime drama to an episode of Teletubbies. I have translated some of the highlights

I just thought everyone should see this

Nice trailer which covers just one game loop! You can see the dramatic structure built into the game which translates nicely into the trailer: Intro->Planning Escalation->Complications Climax->Execution The title cards provide a clear message: "It's not just a heist, it's a rescue mission."

It’s wild to see each day how shameless the president is. To accept that peace medal is so embarrassing!

"You will make an excellent drone." -- The couple at your local kink club, probably (or Lt. Commander data and the borg queen, same diff)

I was telling one of my kids that it was physically impossible for an ad to play between songs on any of the records I own, and they asked "and you only have to pay for it once?" and you could see how strange that seemed. You cannot overstate how many basic rules of media consumption have changed.

I love everything about this — from the South African stylisation details on the outfits and the UI, to the voice acting, and (of course) to the plot itself... 👏👏👏 I hope this does really well, because the world needs more games like these! ❤️
