A world at peace, but one whose latent aggression is sated in duels fought in the air by genetically engineered 'kildren'.

One of the Wii's most interesting exclusives. Released in 2008 as a prequel to the Mamoru Oshii movie of the same name and developed by Ace Combat's Project Aces.

Once, Sesame Street was a lifeline for indie animators. It offered money and incredible freedom to create.

Hey folks!

I need suggestions for colorful and or whimsical video game characters that came out between 1990 - 2010. Nothing Mario-related.

Examples: Spyro, Rayman.

Slightly inspired by Blade Runner ;-] (and it's really hot in France today).

Genuinely happy that the 7 year long development time was spent working at a leisurely pace, spending time with their families and flexing their creative muscles - with no pressure to expand their company, deliver sooner or read a single reddit post. Smartest people in our entire industry.
BREAKING: Silksong will be out on September 4. Two weeks from today. Really.

Often, games that take 7+ years to make are plagued by mismanagement and painful burnout. But for Silksong? Team Cherry was having a blast. They still are.

Beanstalk Bunny (1955) Directed by Chuck Jones at his best (55 also saw the release of "One Froggy Evening") This silent scene is a glorious example of well-executed pose to pose animation. Its pure physical comedy perfected by its ideal medium.
