I'm honestly shocked to see this Kickstarter struggling. Everyone I know that has tried the demo has been gushing about this one.

I suggest you try that demo.

I think the arts council still have a ways to go in what they consider games to be. I know of many people who have tried to apply for this in the past (myself included) and have been all but told that they don't consider games to be art 😭😭😭

I know I'm late to post this before the end of the sale, but this series is seriously such an unforgettable experience.
A masterclass of non-linear storytelling that could only exist in video game form.
Go pick these up or at least add them to your wishlist, and remember that the demos hide secrets.

I also finally played TÖLT and I'm pretty biased because I am good friends with @enigmastud.io at this point, but I really cannot overstate how much you should wishlist TÖLT.

DO IT FOR TONY MALONEY!

Alpha Chrome Yayo @alphachromeyayo.com · 6d

I've been quivering with excitement for TÖLT and got my hands (hooves?) on it today for a while

Listen, I'm an overly verbose fella most of the time but I barely have the words for this

Unhinged and sublime is the best I can do, but even that doesn't come close to the SHEER MAJESTY of this thing

Also while I'm in the reflective mood, here's one of the best game soundtracks from last year and I WILL DIE ON THAT HILL
Myself and Karl Barnes put our all into this OST for 4+ years, with some incredible piano pieces from my sister Cat, as well as some insanity from Sam Kelly

I'm aware that I probably sound like a lunatic whenever I try to describe how it felt to make and release something like this, but I think it's fun (once I can push past the cringe of speaking in such abstracts in public ofc) But hey! It's a weird game and I'm afraid it's only going to get weirder 🐎
