Followers everywhere! I've created a special starter pack for those of us making games the old fashioned way. Please share everywhere and re-post it so more creators can be added and share the love for hand-drawn art-forms in the video game space. ๐Ÿ–Œ๏ธ ๐ŸŽจ ๐ŸŽฎ ๐Ÿ˜Ž #gamedev #indiegamedev #noai #videogames

#DevLog Meet Ted. In a world where magic is taxed + regulated, heโ€™s just trying to brew potions without drowning in paperwork. Magic used to be free. Now it comes with a license fee. Wizard Inc is coming, whether Ted likes it or not

Awesome! Thanks for the suggestions, appreciated. Iโ€™ve found Reddit a good resource for this kind of thing so itโ€™s good to get some suggestions here aswell. I want to watch Tetsuo Iron man at some point, have you seen Hausu, I can see why people compare it to Suspiria, the colorwork in it is sublime

Yeh, thereโ€™s a lot of name dropping on youtube like Bergman, Fellini etc and Iโ€™m all for it but itโ€™s great to be able to see some less dense pictures on there aswell, I saw they just added the Truman show of all films. So much Italian cinema I want to sample aswell ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป

Awesome, I signed up earlier in the week, watched some Japanese horror (Hausu, Ringu and Ju-On) and a couple of matinees, such an unreal service they offer compared to the like of Netflix etc! Will give this a watch tonight ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป

The Criterion streaming service is such a beast love it. I just watched Ringu (the Japanese version) and noticed a scene where a magazine or a record is poking out of a piece of furniture when Tyson's face on it? What is that??

I heard a rumour rdr2 is coming to the Switch 2, that would be sweet! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Right!? The machine gun repetition of chuckles and the headline bulletin beep of a notification, love it!

It would be amazing if all the leaks were wrong and Nintendo have built a monstrous new device with a wildly wacky feature setโ€ฆin fairness Iโ€™m more excited to hear about the launch titles and potential future ports of AAA games ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Are you sure about thatโ€ฆ

Surely this would be common knowledge in the industry like this isnโ€™t some cheap product from an unknown company its a highly anticipated new console from Nintendo! How didnโ€™t they expect things to get leaky when the product is being mass produced? Wild!

Ha yeh the Super Switch checks out, we need Nintendo to do some more crazy shit going forward. FamiSwitch maybe? Weโ€™re all going to buy the new console at some point so yeh youโ€™re point is probably correct ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

Do you think Nintendo are purposely holding off announcing the Switch 2 and allowing the leaks as some kind of marketing strategy? I mean hell, the rumour mill and theorists have been exploding lately! Crazy free marketing before you even announce! ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

People love to show theyโ€™re playing on hard mode but Iโ€™m always starting easy mode, I want to relax with a game! ๐Ÿ˜Ž

I know my game is far from release, but I am already planning a DLC for after my game is called too woke.

Here are a few notes I have jotted down on what I want to do for the first DLC.

Any notes are appreciated unless they disagree with me and are then woke propaganda.

Finally made to the Silent Hill 2 remake, the sound design is chefs kiss! Some of the enemy encounters get a bit samey, shoot leg, bat round the head but mannn that atmosphere. I swear to god I need to take a break every now and then to catch my breath..
