Amazing work Jack!

Backed and pledged as much as I can. I miss physical printed media so badly ❤️

It's incredibly funny to me.

At least it's getting people to talk about traditional arts more!

What the hell has happened at game informer with these ads I’m seeing in fb and insta?

Idk even if you are trying to get businesses to advertise in your press this wouldn’t convince anyone?

persona and really any atlas game including the ones they've published.

they break rules and end up creating something that's genre defining.

We need to break this generation's silly obsession with everything needing to be S-tier controllability; we will just end up making the same game every time. Not everything needs to conform to trends and best examples.

Sometimes it's just the vibe the developer envisions.

Nah, if you play Valorant in the US bullet impacts will emit tiny amount of blood splatter. It’s such a minuscule difference but it’s enough to warrant a classification change and potentially millions of new younger gamers never trying it out.

I start to think about all older products or games tbh.

Most companies like riot regulate their online games based on region to avoid situations like this so their games always are accessible to younger audiences. I.E. Valorant has no blood in Aus to pass our classification guidelines for teens.

Incredible Trent, I think you should reuse this title several years down the line when we’re in a more positive space with funding as a retrospective so we can avoid ever being here ever again 😂

Everyone making a game deserves a chance to be supported.

I want to get it across more people's desks and also get a few more people considering applying. I've written up a little post over there, and I'd love for people to read and maybe share. Be the spark in someone's life that leads them to apply and give it a crack.

I begged my parents to pay for a Dragon Quest membership, realising how real they were for seeing this and saying "nah".

RE9 done

Phenomenal!

If you’ve been playing Resident Evil all your life. Or even just playing all these new remakes and games following the soft reboot of RE7. This game is for you.

Call it slop, call it fan service, I don’t care. It’s sincere, RE9 is probably up there as one of the best RE games

With this new Pokemon setting being inspired by Indonesia.

I’m 100% certain these designs are based on Australian tourists in Bali.

The only thing missing is the bintang singlets

From Shirow's Ghost in the Shell manga: tree panels of Motoko Kusanagi diving backwards off of a building and fading out of sight through optic camo.

The GitS manga's first depiction of optic camouflage looks really pretty in color.

I never say this so publicly but you are incredibly kind and lovely for sharing this with game dev folks

I wish our industry spoke more about the making of the pie and selling it 😂
