@akio_1963 Vigilante is so beautiful. The implied sideways golden light shading such an inspired choice. Here I was messing with a curve filter to see how this game was meant to look, I am glad I wasn't imagining things.

Vigilante is such a beautiful game with some contrast curve adjustment

@B4DC0FFEE speaking of cinematic platformers (which G Lost has an influence from but is not) do you know of a thorough list around on the subject? I could trawl old giant bomb and neogaf etc but is there a comprehensive list to not have to do the work myself putting it together?

[Helm @Helm_ll]

@B4DC0FFEE the chasing-the-cat-around level is forever carved in my brain for both good and bad reasons. That's the price you pay sometimes with software that flies too close to the sun

[Helm @Helm_ll]

@B4DC0FFEE another game with similar sublime levels of A/V presentation that falls apart on the basic platforming / difficulty balancing front is, of course, Chakan: the Forever Man

[Helm @Helm_ll]

@B4DC0FFEE also insane choices to make it so you cannot punch if too close to a wall, some really really insane choices only an artist running a project would go for instead of a gameplay designer, heh

Still. Worth exploring every stage for nuance and vibe, this is one-of-a-kind software.

@MechaBarbarian Yeah I have a soft spot for any 8bit and 16bit artist I've seen that is straddling lines between organic tilework and full on, unapologetic tile-land and this fits the bill. Somewhere between Flashback influence and Jim Lee X-men era influence, an interesting mix. Best with CRT

[Helm @Helm_ll]

@MechaBarbarian this is the artist that cut his teeth doing the X-men MD game which I also love the audiovisual of. I just recommend a nice difficulty down romhack for that one you ain't gonna make much progress otherwise

[Helm @Helm_ll]

@MechaBarbarian Generations Lost on the MD

Cretins. Monsters. The shame of the world.

I can't believe people all around the world are at the hands of a half-illiterate american public as it debates whether to hand off the nuclear codes to a rapist nazi cheeto. HMMM what a difficult choice, HMMM whatever shall we do. And the genocide must continue at any rate!

@OneNerdyOpinion is so cute

@Haematinon nah, fuck twitter, fuck all that stuff, post your art as much as you feel like, this place is a cesspool

[Helm @Helm_ll]

@Haematinon repost freely, I hadn't seen this for example and I'm very glad I did

The first alchemist was the one who set the fire that consumed the Veiled Lady. To atone for such a sin, all those privy to the Highest Secrets swear to use the hand of will elusively to restrain evil and the hand of intuition only to perform the Good.
