the angel of waste disposal haranguing BLANK, drawn in an approximation of animal crossing style. in a text box below she's quoting one of the rude lines from the gamecube version, "Hey! Are you some kind of antisocial freak or something?"

Formless Star is out now!

Travel to a mysterious ever-changing planet and gather data on the animals that live there.

There's 60 different creatures to find, all with unique behaviours and descriptions!

Get the game for free (or pay what you want) here!
splendidland.itch.io/formless-star

"formless star", clay models of characters with various propellers on their heads are stood in a row in front of a starry background.

Anemo, a red character with a big orange nose and a green anemometer on their head is stood in front of their spaceship.

Finding the animal "Lighthorse", which looks like a lighthouse with legs, and a head made out of transparent cones of light.
"Stands at the coastline to act as a beacon, however it has difficulty discerning a puddle from an ocean. said to be proud of its red stripes."

Inside the spaceship, the character Turbine, who is green and has buck teeth, is saying "They say if you love your job, you'll never work a day in your life. Seems I may be the only worker here."

people pick up conversations they were having with the last guy as if he's still here and you have to tell them /no, um, i'm new, actually. somebody stabbed my brain out of my skull. could you tell me where i am, who i am, what i am, and what to do next/ with a straight face.

I really enjoyed talking to Chris about the histories that shape the current deplatforming efforts affecting NSFW video games! Grateful for him taking this issue seriously. I wanted to share links to some of my colleagues’ work that I mention here:
