disappointing game launch grief.

very real among game devs, rarely public. i’m seeing one unfold publicly now, but don’t wanna draw attention to it. it’s sad. i want to say it’ll be ok, but in truth it won’t.

game design is such an embarrassingly human endeavor. you stumble through iterations, lost in the woods like 20 times even tho this happened on your last game. The real magical games somehow feel like… the result of that process. Something was FOUND after the SEARCHING. So cool. Let’s keep doing it

mobile is in such an unjustifiably terrible place right now. find me a single indie dev that doesn’t have an existing audience and isn’t using a gross business model on mobile to survive. just one! i don’t know any success stories like that over the last few years.

Back in 2017 (jfc) I interviewed Team Cherry about how they designed Hollow Knight's map, and got a bunch of sketches and mockups from throughout the game's development to go with it. Bringing it back in anticipation of Silksong!
How to design a great Metroidvania map
The creators of Hollow Knight describe how they built a complex, interconnected world, from sketches to final game.

GenAI texts, music, and art are effortless to gobble up and consume. They need no reflection or interpretation; they are just a nihilist capitalist transaction. They're the perfect tasteless product for tasteless people. They're the perfect fascist entertainment - confirming, never challenging.

As a designer I really enjoy it most to willingly design toys that players can break. I want people to subvert, appropriate, and own the game. I don't want to cater to rule-followers. But that too says more about me as a designer than about games in general.
