the games that most make me want to make games of my own are single plane beat em ups (ninja saviors, altered beast, seishun scandal, splatterhouse) and combat sports (champion kendo, taekwondo, battle k road)
with a few specifics in other genres, like elevator action returns, outfoxies, last blade 2
A certain magical virtual-onā¦
I think about how there are just so many damn remakes coming out these days.
A memory that for some reason popped into my mind during 3am insomnia yesterday is Magusās idle animation where he does some disorienting wobbly thing with his gloves. Readjusting the fit?
yeah evil dude fingerflex plus glove adjustment! i feel like bad guys did this enough in the 90s that it wasnt disorienting to me at all
i think its funny to imagine magus in dish gloves though
dish oriented
you find pages of the story as you progress through the game, and the games narrative mirrors the events of the story. cryostasis is so coolā¦i think about the image of danko holding his burning heart in his hand a lot
Whatever happened to the giant robot action game that Jonathan Blow was working on sometime before he fully commited to the bit
i think he went to work on his game programming language thatās hard to use on purpose
iām so used to medkits being a video game thing that whenever i have to use one in real life (i.e. recently on my foot) it takes me a long time realize that iām actually using a medkit, like, for real. like itās an actual thing, and iām using it.
I feel that way whenever I punch a trash can and eat the hamburger that drops out of it.
best combination of posts in a while holy shit
Apparently heās working on a Braid remaster. But also it took him like 9 years to develop The Witness so thereās some margin for the robot game to come out
I hear this in my head whenever I open a first aid kit
hly shit, did valve ever have to change their medkits because johnson and johnson somehow got all commercial rights to the red cross logo or did this get lost to time
no they had to change all the red crosses to pills in doom because the red cross complained, or at least bethesda has been trying to avoid that. In half life 1 and 2 the medkits still have red crosses on them
yeah the red cross design is actually protected by the Geneva Convention so a lot of games are in violation of this
