on the topic of "rough transition to 3D" i feel as if there should be something drilled into peoples minds that there was so rulebook or blueprint to 3D games. a lot of people woke up one day to a memo saying this was the future and you got a year to learn how to make 3D games

it's a cute little game, really like that it's more of a physical analog gun game with you aiming and firing at actual targets and shooting bb shots that hit them, but that screen is quite ugly af and the guns don't feel amazing to shoot with. feels like a huge amount of space for what it is

I dont cite it often, but Blue Velvet had a very strong effect on Jazzpunk, and how I handled the character and costume designs

one of the saddest things about playing old FPS titles is how they're all weirdly horny in the most passive aggressive way possible

It's Friday, let's play a game. We're scanning a bunch of material from E3, including some corporate promotions.
How much do you think it cost to sponsor the coffee cups at E3 1999? Your best guesses, please! ☕

I directly blame the term Mary Sue for this btw. We now need 47 hours of origin to appease the dumb fucks who think they're intellectuals.
“But Ashley, how can we know she’s capable of doing those things if we don’t see her learning?”
Because you pressed play on the show called TOMB RAIDER!!!

In 1984 a very new company called Infogrames signed a nice lil' publishing contract to develop a game for the French computer Matra Alice. But... they ended up forgetting about it. In the end, they rushed the development to THREE days. The result was Jeu des 6 Lys, a quite strange RPG/adventure.
