PRICE OF FLIGHT

INDIECADE AWARD NOMINATED

By the time they realize their mistake, it will be too late…

you may remember our old thread for the now ancient gamejam version here. i wanted to leave that up as it was and make a new thread for… whatever this is. dokapon kingdom for existentially despairing kawazu-heads? rpg maker demoscene iceberg? the trailer pitches this thing better than i can. it’s a GameLike.

we (@Khan, @contentdeleted, @the_clraken, and i) thought “let’s polish up our gamejam game and re-release it, how hard could it be” and then somehow almost two years passed. hopefully it won’t be another two years before it’s done! haha! ha… :guillotine:

i don’t really know what to say about the award nomination. it’s very cool that happened, and, uh, unexpected. i hope it gets some more people to check our game out! i’m curious how much cultural relevance any of these festivals/awards outside of IGF have… i tried to get to this year’s nominees list from google and genuinely wasn’t able to do it. no wonder our trailer still has like a hundred views lol. maybe we’ll sweep the misaos next. i had basically zero expectations going into this project and more than anything i was making it for me while pretending i didn’t need money to live, so it’s weird to be thinking about this stuff now

anyway, the Bird-Based Bloodsport of the Future approaches! please look forward to it

That’s a wicked cool trailer. The Joseph de Maistre quote attributed to Bush is a nice touch lol.

Congrats on the nomination!
