Thank you for the correction. The alters is indeed not out yet.
In my opinion for the other I doesn’t matter whether they are just publishing or actually developing. The games are not bar but apparently don’t sell well. Maybe their not the greatest at marketing but I enjoy the vibes they are going for
Ok guys valid points from everyone here. But who here has bought the latest 11bit Studios games? And I’m not talking about Frostpunk 2. I’m taking about Indika, The alters (not out yet, my bad) , The Traumathurge, Creatures of Ava ,… all of these games seemed like really cool things to me, sadly I could not afford them.
I 100% trust this guy. He’s just a incredibly genuine guy who wanted to help and has done an incredible amount of work. So happy he got the award.
Yeah so far Hazelight is only getting better and better
Yeah I can see that, but currently that’s not a viable line in my career to take
How has noone mentioned Powerwash Simulator yet. There is no pressure (pun not intended), you just walk around dirty scenes and start cleaning them. The amount of satisfaction this produces is incredible. This is mostly because the dirt is actually fairly accurate and washing does not feel like brushing dirt of where the only options is 100% dirt or 0% dirt. All of the intermediates and the complex geometry of the objects makes cleaning a really chilling experience.
I still smile whenever I stumble upon these pages of my college block
Because people like the game and like reading about it.
I’ll Gladly check it out when I’m home. Hopefully the reception here is mature.
I’ve never played Xenoblade but it was such a pleasure to ruin my YouTube algorithm with Xenoblade shit posting vids
My comment about the lenght was not a critisism. I appreciate details about your opinion.
I wanted to comment under your post because some of your points don’t feel specific to the game and I think my opinion might offer you a different view. Also this is a social platform and I just like to interact with people who take the time to express their opinions.
I still disagree with you point about community managers. Just because Concerned Ape is a stellar developer who likes to interact with poeple doesn’t mean everyone need to do it his way. There are so many devs who got swarmed by toxicity, not wanting to potentially deal with that is perfectly valid.
First of all this is a lot of text and I appreciate all the effort you have taken to express your opinion.
There are some points I would like to comment on even if I have not played the game myself. Firstly there is the Aspect of effort. While I can see how beeing on your own or exploring can be a rewarding experience, it creates the tense setting where the developer needs to assess exactly how much effort a player will put into the game. And personally I feels a game like this is mainly cozy and should not put up barriers in front of the player.
Secondly I don’t blame devs for not beeing active on social media with the community. Especially when your game is rather small this task can be really mentally exhausting and we all know how easily people get toxic on the Internet. Not everyone wants to put themselves out there, maybe they dislike the attention. They became a developer and not a social media manager after all.
Would you consider military operations in a foreign country a political theme?
Also do you think it’s okay for artists include a message in their work, even if it feels “pushed” to you? Maybe it feels essential to the creator, but since you disagree with the message it feels pushed to you.
Could you share what qualifies as “woke” for you?
I’m so hyped for this game. Glad it’s reviewing well.
Seems like a smaller event but I’m looking forward to hear more indies.
Silksong confirmed.
Really liked the game. A simple idea but incredible execution. Also love how the game is essentially the free trial for more stories told in this way
Yeah the unlocks were not a great design choice
Unlocking the golden door was one of the greatest experiences I’ve had in video games.
