YouTube knows me too well.
A hazy, golden-hued desert scene featuring a lighthouse that has sprouted mechanical, crab-like legs and is walking across sandy dunes. Its light beam cuts through the dusty air. In the background, a colossal snail shell structure, overgrown with greenery and wooden scaffolding, towers over the landscape under a cloudy yellow sky.
A vibrant, fantasy video game landscape bathed in ethereal pink and purple light. In the foreground stands a whimsical, red-roofed lighthouse. The background features a massive mountain formation carved into the shape of a skull, overlooking a valley of stylized trees and root bridges. Small, jellyfish-like creatures float in the bright blue sky.
I finally got a chance to check out Keeper.
Utterly bizarre, utterly gorgeous.
Thank you for making this art, @doublefine.com
Credits for Brent Porter (3D art lead) and Catherine Menabde (2D art lead) are shown here. There's a lengthy description of what they did, with a pastiche of various Demonschool characters underneath, messing around with a computer.
We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.
Text at the top reads: "Xbox Partner Preview". Below are the names of the following games with corresponding game art: Armatus, The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu, Dave The Dive, Crowsworn, Echo Generation 2, Vampire Crawlers, 007 First Light, Roadside Research, Total Chaos, Reanimal, Erosion, Zoopunk, Cloverpit, Hitman World of Assassination, Tides of Annihilation, and Raji: Kaliyuga.

Gamescom last minute meeting requests sliding into people's inboxes like
The eerieness of Blake Manor plays tricks on your senses. Making you believe things that cannot be. The message must have already been there unnoticed. What other explanation could there be?
An in-game render of Ozzy Osbourne, with the logo for Brutal Legend and text that reads, "Free for the next 666 minutes" and the itch.io logo in the bottom right corner
To honor Ozzy's larger-than-life rock and roll legacy, we're making Brütal Legend *FREE* on itch.io: doublefine.itch.io/brutal-legend
But this incredible deal will only last for 666 minutes, as the prophecy foretold. So get yourself clicking, before it disappears like a demon in the night...
