About 2 decades ago I wrote a blog 👴 and a book about working in #Japan in #gamedev that was pretty well read and inspired/duped quite some foreigners into moving to Japan themselves 🙇‍♂️. It has aged pretty badly but the bonus chapter on gamesmanship in Japan is still pretty fun... 🧵 (1/6)

Today's Load-bearing Tomato addresses the age old question:

"why don't the devs just [SOCIAL MEDIA OPINION]"

It turns out, "a lot of reasons", but if you never have to test your ideas, you never have to discover why they're not any good.

The amount of times I sit in a call with a dreamer and their dream game is basically "everything from my favorite six games smashed together into perfect harmony and there was endless flawless content and it has graphics everyone likes" and I have to explain that making feet go on stairs is hard
i think what a lot of people never seem to realize is that a lot of people's vision of an "epic dream game" isn't actually very deep and comes down to scale and/or having a lot of features, whereas by embracing limitations you can be pushed in a far more radical direction.
rpgmaker definitely isn't the right tool for everyone, but I think using opinionated pre-baked tools to make some games would be very instructive to a lot of folks setting out to make their epic custom dream game. they're a much lower-stakes way to learn important lessons like "how to tell a story"

This game is brilliant. Inspired by #mtg, the colorless spells are called collar-less.
