UNSIGHTED is one of those games I think is really slept on: an incredibly hard metroidvania with a really interesting (and painful) narrative countdown clock which makes what you do really feel like it matters

Lord of The Rings but make it Apocalypse Now and Annihilation.

Shit gets progressively trippier and cosmic horror the closer one gets to the tower of Mordor.

Dark matter is just lost odd socks. Billions upon billions of civilisations who at some stage in their evolution had pairs of knitted limb coverings wondering where the fuck one of them went.

Dark matter.

Please hand me my Nobel for science.

Three years ago we released something that divided readers into two camps: "What the hell did I just read?" & "I need more of this."

Eat My Flesh, Drink My Blood hit different. Still does.
Something special coming. Stay tuned.

Meanwhile, review WKSS? on B&N!

Double Down Saloon, the Arts District, the wetlands park, Red Rock Canyon, a million great little dives. There’s so many great spots that are a wonderful break from the strip.

i think its funny that at some point journalists stopped being allowed to understand a situation because any synthesis is, of coursed, biased towards the observable facts

How do you handle your camera system? Does it handle inversions? (I think I saw a clip of you doing a loop in a post once) Anyway, very excited for your game!

Horses Is Tame Horses, the indie game that is too scandalous for either Valve or Epic, is only beyond the pale if you're not familiar with any other art form.

Despite the controversy, Horses is only shocking if you're unfamiliar with the history movies, theater, literature, or basically any art form that does not have stats. aftermath.site/horses-indie-g...

Making a morph from scratch using Keeper's Essence system
Making a morph from scratch using Keeper's Essence system YouTube video by p1xelcoder - Oliver Franzke

As promised I recorded the creation of a morph (from scratch) using the tech we developed for Keeper. In about an hour I show how we capture the β€œEssence” of meshes, blend between them, and spice things up with spatial warps.

Dropping a vote for E. Can’t wait for the video! Your morph technique is so cool.

Does anyone remember that Interactive Storytelling book that all Digipen students have (had?) to read in first year?

Was it Chris Crawford on interactive storytelling?

I believe "Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art" by Scott McCloud was also part of the curriculum?

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.

I will not support a deal that does nothing to make health care more affordable.

We are in a health care emergency. A simple one-year extension of these tax credits would cost less than Donald Trump’s $40 billion bailout for Argentina.

A vote for this bill is a mistake.

Illustrated poster of the tower of Cirith Ungol in the land of Mordor. In the foreground are a bunch of orcs and goblins with acid green rim-light holding swords and axes and pole-arms. In the middle ground is a narrow bridge leading between two grotesque statues into the multi tiered tower that is lit with sickly green lights. Below it leading into the plateau of Gorgoroth are the hills of the Ethel Duath. In the distance is Orodruin and Ered Lithui. The text at the top is white flame like black metal lettering with the words CIRITH UNGOL. Nine green stars float above them. Plumes of smoke and ash fill the sky. A tiny shadow is grossing the bridge. Lord of the Rings. Tolkien. Prints coming soon.

Tough day for Cryptic STO team. We're losing two of our most senior artists, including Hector Ortiz, who codified the look of STO's unique 25th-century Starfleet aesthetic. The other is Senior FX Artist Chris Menard, who has been on the project with me for the last 15 years. We'll miss them dearly.

I got a game coming out in the next 1-3 months. Our core team is just 2 folks.

It's dope, you can play the demo.

And you can help us by wishlisting.
