Looks like they didn’t include Monster Trivia, but it’s still a great collection. I will definitely play that Forbidden Forest remake.
Cosmi/Paul Norman is one of the best examples of a creator working totally free of existing “engines” and copycat mechanics. Too bad that doesn’t happen much today.
I wish Norman’s early 2000s personal Web site wasn’t impossible to find now even in an archived form. I remember it being somewhat bizarre.
I played a demo for this during one of the Next Fests and it seemed totally fine? Kinda chatty for that kind of game, maybe not as well-designed as a proper Souls game, but I didn’t have a bad time with it, kept it in my wishlist.
it’s telling that Nintendo took the time in a fucking direct to announce a bizarre and byzantine and uniquely Nintendo form of DRM that kinda sorta allows game borrowing but not and no one is talking about it because everyone got a game they could get hyped over and also it’s opt-in for users (which is probably even more insane than the scheme itself)
