This is the vibe I'm going for with my game.

its like good ending in horror game

i’ve noticed that on the internet, girls are not allowed to acknowledge the averageness of their appearance. no, everyone has to believe they’re the fairest in the land and if you don’t- you’re pandering, you need to stand up, etc. which reinforces ideas that beauty = morality

its an ugly truth but having irl normie friends will save ur life

Bill Watterson, the creator of Calvin and Hobbes is an interesting figure in my life. On the one hand, Calvin and Hobbes is, for my money, the greatest newspaper strip of all time. I wish I had one tenth of this man's talent. I still think back on how the stories he told got me through some of the rough patches in my childhood by giving me this example of another kid with a vivid imagination who was a bit of a loner (depending on what your views on Hobbes are) who I could identify with. On the other hand, I'm on the complete opposite side of the scale from him when it comes to our views on licensing and comics as a business. He had in his mind the notion that seeing a comic book character made into a toy and put on a store shelf cheapens it somehow. I think that's idiotic. Seeing a character in different contexts is what makes it into an enduring part of the culture. Watterson was inspired greatly in his work by Peanuts, which was extensively licensed out. I, as someone born decades later than Watterson, wouldn't have any connection to Peanuts at all if not for the holiday specials. Licensing keeps characters alive. Meanwhile, I'm worried that Calvin and Hobbes is starting to fade away as a new generation grows up without it. But maybe I'm also just salty that my childhood wish to see a Calvin and Hobbes movie about "the noodle incident" never came true.

something I say a lot about filmmaking is: I appreciate when people TRY something NEW, they take a chance, even if they don't fully succeed/ "land the plane", I would always rather see something where someone TRIED a NEW thing vs competent and boring (well worn territory)

You want your game unique enough so that you can differentiate it from everything else, but generic enough so that you can connect it to everything else
