What?

Someone tell them to make a Mastodon account.

You are being overly technical and misleading the point I was making. I keep forgetting how autistic Lemmy can be.

I’m making fun of the creative director from the article by lying and still raking in the upvotes from the people that didn’t look into it.

Like the people that will go into the game thinking it’s a souls game. The ones that will just click download without looking it up. Get it… 🙄

Also if you expect every interaction on the internet to be honest and above board than boy do I have a bridge to sell you.

I agonized over it but in the end decided the upvotes under the false pretence were acceptable. 😏

Active player counts on launch is a metric that is undoubtedly used to judge the game and potentially is tied to dev bonuses. Like obsidian and fallout new Vegas.

I don’t see any corporation being above artificially inflating any of their numbers.

Right cause the same thing didn’t happen to Metroivanias and Rougelikes.

Popular use and association will make souls into the next one of them. Directly in the name or not that is the label that’s sticking.

But in the end didn’t mind people buying it under a false pretence as long as sales are up.

They literally sell a seasoned dry noodle snack in some corner stores. Just a block of instant noodles with the powder stuck to it.

Fun fact I learned from “let’s drown out”

Games as a service has always been a scam.

FOMO is a hell of a drug.

Interesting!

Yeah I’m certain I placed some red blocks in the background of the keyblade around the Donald Duck icon.

Must have gotten snapped with the downtime. No worries. Thanks so much for checking.

That’s sick! Great job on the website.

One thing I noticed is it’s definitely missing some red pixel that I placed. Got 0 when it should show a handful that I placed to fill out a background.

Otherwise it’s looking accurate.

This version still got the data scraper in it?

More of this please!

An original game clearly made with love by a small team of passionate people.

You caught the corner of my Hi-Fi Rush and Crown ☺️

Also made the Keyblade on the second half of the canvas.

Good. Making a game open world isn’t a positive. Just leads to padding and copy pasting.

Had a blast as well! First time doing something like this. Really happy how my pieces turned out.

Thanks so much for organizing this event!

What part of “Pornography should be outlawed” don’t you understand. That also entails owning and viewing porn.

Calling it. Give it till the end of the year before they pull the plug completely.
