directing + writing + trailers + voice direction + "running comms" for UNBEATABLE at @dcellgames.com

also OST + SFX + for I AM YOUR BEAST, EL PASO ELSEWHERE, TMNT, SPACE WARLORD ORGAN TRADING SIMULATOR,
seeing characters that only existed in your head slowly take shape and become things people just look at as a given is a part of making stuff i'll probably never get used to and i'm also glad that i'll probably never get used to it
here is another design thread for UNBEATABLE for a specific character! please please please please PLEASE only click forward if you have finished the game!!!!

very recently someone told me "you still want to take a vacation? you despicable guy" because it's christmas break and i haven't personally translated unbeatable to chinese yet
What's an insult you'll never forget?

you might never have "Enough Time" unless you have sold millions of a previous work. do i wish we had an extra 6 months to make the game? no, i wish we had a year. but even moreso i'm grateful we had time at all to make it whatsoever and were able to finish the ending we planned from the beginning.

Best In-Your-Face Editing

The UNBEATABLE trailers are all great and this is no exception. Great message, editing with a lot of attitude and flair that is core to the game's vibe.

very flattered to show up in here twice (?!) alongside a lot of other really amazing trailers like the one for unfair flips i'm obsessed with (which, like the rhythm doctor one, is just gameplay of the game itself!)

Thank you for the nod, @derek-lieu.com !

Our level editor had become so powerful, we were able to make the whole game trailer in it. Shout-out to @rj.dcellgames.com for the trailer direction and the music.

i do believe it's not a forever problem. maybe because that's what i have to believe, but also because there's no money in it.

i said this in an interview about this post already but the only way to really make money in this bubble is by selling shovels, and even the shovels are starting to rust
we decided against putting this directly in the game mostly because we'd rather focus on be the thing the game is rather than the thing it isn't (ie putting this up front focuses too much on the ways we didn't make the game, you know?)

but sadly this is starting to feel a bit evergreen.
maybe we could use another splash screen.

you should never make someone do an unpaid test for a job. d-cell has never done that, said not to make us look like the Good Guys; this is bare minimum stuff. do not make people do a test if making people do the test would blow your budget. you're only allowed to be choosy if you have money for it.

there's a lot we're planning and a lot i can't talk about regarding that but i promise you there will be more beatball. i love making and mapping beatball tracks, and if unbeatable suddenly stopped selling copies tomorrow i would still probably end up making like ten more of them over time
December 15, 2025 at 9:55 AM
a thing i already knew but have now had reconfirmed for me infinity times now is that given the general patience level i've seen in the wild, even something as blockbustery as the original metal gear solid would probably kill a lot of gamers on the spot

Tonic Trouble entered and left my mind just as quick, in the form of a stray, errant thought - and the entire time, I was terrified.

"video game mechanics?" Actually, they're called developers.

100% feel free to blame me if you don't like the writing but make sure you don't discredit the people who helped make that writing work the way it does

i'm feeling mellow but in all honesty i just have to force myself to assume everyone will hate the game on release because i am going to be destroyed if i expect Anything
