one part of me really wants this.
another part thinks Ghost Trick was already a perfect game that doesn't need a sequel and our real goal should be to make Capcom let Shu Takumi do whatever crazy new thing he wants.

finished unbeatable. it's a thoroughly frustrating game to talk about because they totally got my ass especially in the back half but there's just... so much that i found frustrating or distracting or not cohesive.
i think it's kind of great? but it's definitely in *spite* of a lot of negatives.

question i've been mulling over: what genre is deltarune? i guess the simplest answer would be jrpg - it certainly shares the general shape of those games - but it's missing too many elements core to the genre for me to feel totally comfortable with that label.

i've been making more music in FL Studio again lately and really having a great time :D
it's all very amateurish and i'm unlikely to release it besides sending it to friends and saying "hey look what i did" but that's how you get better right?
make some art it's good for your soul :)

Bits & Bops (by @tempolab.games) is definitely the best game i've seen at capturing what makes the Rhythm Heaven games great.
i definitely wish it were longer but it's great to get what feels basically like a mini release in the series. I always want more Rhythm Heaven.

even if genai was useful for making good games (it's not), it turns out that having it in your game is so toxic to player perception that it still wouldn't be worth it
so knock it the fuck off
so knock it the fuck off
everyone dislikes genai in games, but kids and story-focused players the most.
sounds like we'll be ok. just have to stay the course here and the "inevitable" new technology nobody likes will die. again.

i hear a sentiment from other game devs sometimes that after working on games they don't feel able to play games on their own for fun as much anymore and i just... can't relate to that.
i love playing games so much. the games are why i'm here and i love them and that hasn't diminished at all.
