Today I want to share a bit about another one of my projects – beat'em up Homerun Dash. Currently, probably the best and most finished thing about this project is its logo, designed by the incredibly talented @noisivy.desktopgeneration.com

Grishkin.

Character design inspired by M. John Harrison's 1975 anti-space-opera, The Centauri Device. A large humanoid figure stands with his hands gesturing in a religious manner. He dons a purple cloak, which is open to reveal that his innards are visible through transparent windows in his abdomen.

Another awesome iconoclast playthrough! Also, I always love their video descriptions, they help me get a better understanding of a game than any IGN review youtu.be/CYXl1TKQTN8?...

I think there’s a problem with this quote. What is actually meant by “not maintainable”?

They say they couldnt ban singal because he "didnt violate TOS".

But turn around and ban link who actually hadn't violated the TOS.

But seriously though, imagine: bosses have very limited super armor only on certain attacks, but they play footsies with players and punish a whiff with the most stylish short combos you’ve ever seen…

Alex from LWS Studio @longwintershadows.com · 8d

They’ll do it anyway and no one’s gonna face any consequences lol

Woah how did you survive all that… 😳

Alex from LWS Studio @longwintershadows.com · 8d

Now hear me out: a combo MAD, but it’s the enemies beating the shit out of players. The combos are also relatively short

What even compels her to continue with this self-humiliation ritual?.. Why would you even want to post this?.. For whom is this supposed to be?

Obviously, this is loser shit, but I think AI has really cemented itself as the visual language of fascism. It's anti-human, flattened, uninteresting, and cheap. It's like looking at a Potemkin Village and thinking that's the same as architecture.

The 'WAFFLES' thing is even more upsetting when you realise Jesse Singal came into a place where people didn't hate Trans people and he started yelling 'WHY DON'T YOU HATE TRANS PEOPLE' like he's literally the 'WAFFLES' person in the analogy ffs
