So I’m participating in Global Game Jam 2012. A 48-hour make a game festival happening all over the world this weekend! I just posted the latest version of my game so far, and you can play it now by clicking through the picture!
My high score is 219, see if you can beat that. :-)
Okay, admittedly some of those shots were very cliche anime shots, but, BUT, it’s Shinichiro Watanabe (Cowboy Bebop director) and Yoko Kanno (Cowboy Bebop composer) reunited at last! Also it’s about a boy new to town finding solace in Jazz and two other friends who also love Jazz. This pretty much has be good.
Dark Souls is the type of game where you remember every nook and cranny because forgetting one of them will lead to a long fall, a sword in the back, being flattened by a boulder, burning to death, drowning to death, death death death death. When you make mere feet of progress in some parts, you damn better remember where you are.
One of the most amazing things in this game is that I often know where I need to go, sit in silent contemplation for 2 minutes going over the map in my head, and then realize the correct route in a moment of blissful enlightenment.
Also this Mapstalgia blog is excellent. Players draw maps of various games from their memory.
Hit 1000pp for the first time with Cody today. I also completed all of his trials (his last two are nuts). So to the six people out there who might find this cool, I’m feeling super cool right now.
