optional yeah, but I feel like its intended for VR since it’s literally inspired by a type of tunnel vision. I could just play it on a regular screen and it would still be gorgeous, but I feel like I’d be stepping over the purpose.

Wouldn’t need to read the description to know this is a Mizuguchi game.
His aesthetic is a '90s Japan trance aesthetic, right? A bunch of the gaijin indie devs I know ran in the same social scene as him and now have the same aesthetic hangups (maybe that’s too harsh a word, I’m just reacting to being plunged back to hanging out with Jake Kazdal)

I think they’re fine as long as the music is loud and the colors are searing into your brain
I just want (and kinda tried to make) a video game version of this (epilepsy warning):
like, rhythmic moving images to music is associative enough that you don’t even really need color and I’m curious how abstract you can go before it disassociates

please do this
at one point I spent a week working on building the Enter the Void intro scene into the project I was working on (this was when I was very angry at this deeply personal thing and needed to put more aggression into it)

this def, needs a seizure warning as well, whoof
I am buying this the instant it becomes possible to part with my money.
got it
I spent time finding the biggest screen I could project it onto in school so I could fill all my peripheral vision in the darkest room possible (didn’t catch it in theaters and to be honest it runs on a tone just too bone-headed to sit through)

If it always has this Carl-Sagan voiceover going in the background that would be aces
Oh my god.

I think I should be kept away from that, actually.
I think it would push me over the edge between my current half-joking tongue-in-cheek reference to Tetsuya Mizuguchi and his products as my personal religion into full-blown no-joking tongue-out-of-cheek actual-religion
welp
honestly this was sort of their only defensible move
that the community is terrible is not something they can rule away
might make a shitty unity asset flip called “bomb a police station and have lsd orgy to celebrate” now that its allowed on steam

I think I’d rather play it sitting down, in clothes without wires, someplace that isn’t a commercial masquerading as a museum, ideally without VR goggles. I’m a bit of a cynic though.

An effective monopoly whose main interest is in more sales should not be in the business of moderating content honestly
Getting Stick Shift on there outweighs all the shit that’s in terrible taste
