I'm enjoying this Capcom PS2 game way more than expected! In fact, I thought I was done, but I unlocked a hidden survival mode and I'm trying to get gold in that now.

Gladiator combat is obviously the standout, but the janky stealth sections add some worthwhile humor and flavor.

@Demruth I did reference Antichamber as a type of game that requires a lot of experimentation and therefore investment haha

Most would have an easier time building up to that via smaller, lower risk games, but there are always exceptions that prove the rule. :)

[Derek Yu @mossmouth]

Years ago, I wrote an article about "assessing risk" as an indie dev, and this game seems to hit the sweet spot I described of 1. low resource investment, 2. relatively broad appeal, and 3. thoughtful pricing:

Success never guaranteed but worth studying!

We made $361,657 gross revenue in the first 24 hours after releasing our 4 month game.

Please fellow indies, make smaller games faster.

Making new enemy sprites for Vikings on Trampolines. The Blimpolini is a large balloon that acts as temporary platform, but its also mindlessly carrying a bomb, so you need to pop it before it blows up. I added a bit of a subtle fish-theme as well

Love VGMaps!

[Jonathan Leung (VGMaps.com / YT: JonLeung1) @VGMaps]

I own and run https://t.co/pKxxbhPE3W: The Video Game Atlas mostly by myself for over 24 years, and it's amassed over 50,000 maps for over 3500 video games across almost 60 different platforms.

Yet, I always feel like many gamers don't even know what it is.

Do you use VGMaps?

I’m so sorry for everyone at id Software affected by these layoffs.

I know what it feels like to leave id while id goes on. It’s a strange and painful thing to step away from a place that holds so much of your work, friendships and history.

The people at id have done a great job moving that legacy forward. DOOM, Quake, and Wolfenstein are not easy names to carry on, especially in today’s industry. The last few games showed real care, skill and respect for what those worlds mean to people.

A note on digital preservation: id's history is critically important to the history of games. I’ve preserved id’s complete early history from our start at Softdisk through to August 6, 1996, including materials and assets that, as far as I know, id itself no longer has. I hope someone is doing the same for the company’s ongoing legacy (the work, code, assets, stories and the people behind them).

I’m thinking of everyone at id today, and everyone else affected by yesterday’s layoffs. Romero Games was there a year ago. I know how devastating it is, and my heart's with all of you.
