Will Zortch 2 be any good? 🤔 Check out the Demo and give me your verdict 👀 store.steampowered.com/app/3807500/Zo…

@wesleytypes @ElderScrolls @bethesda @BethesdaStudios the water was great in morrowind but it was always weird to me how they cheaped out on the shore 🤔

Nvidia peaked in 2002 when it gave us that insane Morrowind water.

@dog_rates interesting to see a dog being interested in plumbing .. my dogs are more into electricians 🤔

This is Hank. He is incredibly invested in this plumbing project that does not require him in the slightest. 13/10

@nichegamer journey mixed with breath of the wild? 🤔

Atmospheric sci-fi 3D action adventure game CALX launches this summer: nichegamer.com/calx-launches-…

@TsuchinokoT_H only problem is that the game kind of gets in the way 🤔

Don't you love when special attacks have fun animations like this?

@s8n the new adventures of

@messedupfoods find her some fresh grass and keep her away from the bulls 🤔

@jogamedev @Human_yo_yo that is nice but not everyone is good at making tiny videos about trivial stuff 😓 anyway i'm glad that once again extroverts found a shortcut and winning again but for me it would be literal torture having to make these everytime I fix or add something 🤔

It's super important for gamedevs to understand why some games innately perform better on social media than others. I explored this concept deeper with my friend @Human_yo_yo and he brought up some important points so I'm sharing the entire convo here:

@messedupfoods no pineapple pizza is complete without bacon and feta cheese 🤔

@RinoTheBouncer all you have to do to make an enjoyable game is to not include the usual suspects: quicktime events, unskippable cutscenes, instant death spikes, escort missions, mandatory stealth, strong fall damage etc. good game design is easy as not adding the wrong ingredients 🤔

What gaming opinion will you defend like this?🚀

@alexaugerdev what I find strange is nowadays the games you think would be niche find success and audience (e.g. pizza tower) and games that seem generic fail fast and disappear without trace (e.g. those multiplayer online fps games that keep coming out lately) 🤔

The ever-rising idea of making a single game accessible to as many people as possible has few benefits outside of sales and profits. Focusing on the core audience means focusing on a core vision, otherwise ideas and concepts are spread too thin to be fulfilling enough.

@colorgravemhin that may be just how steam works - I'm guilty of it myself - a demo is a lot like a steam sale: you just put everything in the basket you can and run to checkout 🧺🏃‍♂️ and then you find you have no time to play anything 😓

@mutantleg We get a lot of what I call 'collectors'. They just seem to download tons of whatever is free and just clog up their Steam library to marvel at the mess they have made. Baffling behavior.

Demo discourse is insufferable. We stop supporting our demos because we have seen the numbers across our releases and in our case it has hurt us. Demos are great leading up to a release for sure. Post release we take them down because -Hurts our sales performance. -Can be difficult juggling bug fixes and patches between the live and demo version. Mistakes have happened in the past as we are a small team and merely human. -Some content creators would cover the game using the demo version (Yeah I noticed and noted you down on our sheet) then tried selling their key. -"I download the demo to remember to buy it" crowd aren't real. They rarely play the demo and even rarer still even bother to make a purchase. Beyond that they are a loud and obnoxious minority. Demos are cool. One of my fondest memories was snagging a demo disc for Warcraft III after a movie at the AMC as a kid. Demos and the space just aren't the same anymore. But to act like a dev is anti consumer or is inherently acting out of some sort of malice or manipulation is not only obnoxious but insulting. All of this constant badgering and whining all over the place be it about demos, design, patches or typos has thoroughly worn out my patience.

@adredev I found out in some genres people don't like getting lost 😓 the problem is that I do 😞

I'm tired of procedural worlds, random seeds, modular assets and no story. I want to build something with insane gameplay, but also a world crafted by hand. Secrets everywhere. A deep story. A place you can truly get lost in. Will take time and people never asked for it, but i don't care. #gamedev #IndieGameDev #unity3d #RPG #Zelda

@ltierney04 @BenjiGameDev 😔

@mutantleg @BenjiGameDev I'd bet never

nowadays, I see the purchase of a Nintendo console purely as a tax to play new mainline Mario and Zelda games. I won't buy the Switch 2 until it has one of those. I never bought a Wii U

@derekunleashed the only thing they can do to make me get one if they release pikmin 5 or wario land 5 on it .. in other words no chance 😓

I'm legit asking, what did people want for a next nintendo console
