Originally intended to be released in 2010 for Xbox 360, the planned launch was scuppered when the original publisher went bankrupt, and a slew of legal challenges prevented the developers from releasing the game themselves.
Fifteen years later, with SNEG Ltd. at the helm, those challenges have been resolved, and the game has been tweaked to bring it back in line for modern gamers while conserving the retro look and feel of the decade it was created.

Is this based on the old Errol Flynn movie?

Honestly not sure? Seems like an oversight or maybe homage?
I did not expect the DOOM Music

Chinese Sekiro-like, I think it was originally revealed at some Keighley event. Touted in the same breath as Wukong though this seems more clearly like-Sekiro to me. Loosely based on a mobile franchise
looks very different to the amiga version

Going to assume this has a lightened difficulty setting for the sake of promo footage, because there did not seem to be a lot going on in that gameplay unfortunately, for how flashy it is stylistically.
this came out about a week ago and i forgot to mention it earlier
i played the demo - it was neat. very hand-crafted and personal feeling. definitely reminiscent of Jack King-Spooner games, but each stage is basically like a little interactive music video for the songs contained within.

Seems so lame that these Chinese triple-A stakes in the ground all seem to emphasize animation as their strongest quality, and it all looks so boringly the same.

it’s based on the same source novel, which apparently is quite popular in Russia

I think it’s on the one hand really weird that we’re at a point where like, the Steam forums are toxic garbage, computer hardware is arguably more finicky and expensive than it’s been for most of the previous decade, but as a software platform PC is clearly, clearly winning right now in a way that I am largely happy with.
this must be how people who had been podcasting since 2007 felt when people were talking about the mainstream podcasting boom in like 2017. some of these trends are soooooo delayed in a way that’s hard to even suss out when you’re close to them

PC didn’t win, consoles failed.

I do think PC did win, both through Steam fixing a billion issues that existed with PC gaming and MS’ failure to turn it into a walled garden.

kind of sucks that pc ‘winning’ has coincided with ballooning component costs and nvidia trying to secure a software focused monopoly
