Also, theory: every good bit in a horror game in the last 20 years is basically Thief’s Return to the Cathedral. (Thief is the best horror game)

IMPORTANT THING 👽

I skipped over this story many times, I think because the title image just turned me off, and I was lazy about reading the fine print

a new weird 😈 games showcase is really important (!) we need more shit like this. enough with bland AAA oatmeal, focus on indies experimenting ✨

I've been running gdcparties.com for a few years now. Some shitty company BlueberryAI decided they'd just take all the source code for the work I've done and reskin it, advertising it as their own. Jokes on them...it was still linked to my events spreadsheet, and now their website looks like this 😉

everyone will be happy to know that my next game will feature 100% human-written code and no slop vibe coding

also the art is painstakingly human-made, because I can't imagine handing the reigns over to some aggregate generator

If you haven't checked it out, his indie stuff is genuinely weirder than the licensed anime he's known for. Heavy French new wave / theater of the absurd vibes. Unfortunately most of his major life's work, the Kerberos Saga isn't even available as fan translations en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerbero...

With that being said:

• There’s still no official response in regards to the Seven Seas Union or why Seven Seas employees were not i formed about the acquisition prior

hopefully we get a statement soon like this one but that remains to be seen

Media Do/Seven Sea issued a new statement regarding AI Translation

• They state that there are no plans to implement AI for their translation & localization work

• They clarify the AI Assisted tool MDTS was intended for JPN translators to TL Japanese literature & won’t be implemented at Seven Seas

Screenshot of Wonder Project J2, Josette is jumping for joy.

Great episode! It didn't get mentioned, but Wonder Project J2 is the most Pac-Man 2-ish style game I've come across. A lot of similar puzzles about directing attention and indirectly getting the main character into the right emotional headspace, as well as hidden easter egg animations to discover.

This is a policy of genocide.

If you want to hear three people sound like they have lost their minds while describing a video game, here's a podcast for you:

Oh hell yeah. World needs more Pac-Man 2-likes!

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. It does not sound like it is in good hands.

Deleted a quote post about the Seven Seas acquisition / AI translation debacle where I mixed up Seven Seas and another English Manga publisher. 😅

This is why I shouldn't social media while deep in tax spreadsheets.

🚨 UPDATE 🚨

Seven seas stated in a follow up press release that Media Do’s acquisition will not affect daily operations, however..

Media Do has said they will use Ai to “to assist translators in translating manga into English, shortening the translation time from five to six months to two months.

Kensuke Ushio never misses.

The music in the Japanese made-for-TV animation, "Journal with Witch", is extremely good

Dug up a screenshot I took of Fray for PC Engine from my reference files, and while it looks great, I definitely prefer the character portrait in the PC98 version, really benefits from both the higher resolution and more 80's character design.

Here come the line art kitties!
Stretching. Exploring. Playing. Resting. I wish I could be as free as they are.
