Sad that all the Skyblivion modders who just needed 2 more weeks to finish their game will have to hang themselves now
So, I got really into Blue Prince, and at some point remembered someone saying it was a solodev
so I looked into it
so apparently, in Indie culture now "solo dev" can mean a game that has an entire 30-person team working on it, as long as they're just "supporting" the solodev
lmao even
I think my threshold for it being a solo dev is it needs to be at least 70% only their work
the development cost for this game *feels* like $50M
I can accept it being a "solodev" if you have a few people who contribute a few things
even though it was probably more like $20M
the secondary support studio and the QA team both looked Czech, so they probably came cheap
and I don't think it's been in full-development for 8 years, probably more like 4
It's a really good game that has the same problem of a lot of mechanically deep puzzle games I like that run length baloons and playing hyper efficiently becomes sorta unfun
12 hours to get credits to roll, and I'd estimate I'm a little more than 50% done with the postgame at 24 hours
couple challenge mode things I might try to do that'll be more of a pain
The game gets SUPER oblique in the postgame, but overall isn't as much of a puzzle box as I was expecting
it's more of a straightforward tile-laying, roguelite puzzle game

Though if that guy who coomed over Animal Well's unsolvable mysteries played this game, I think he'd die
I am so sorry Spooky
lol
Don't worry though, his video right before that was animal well
hahahahahahaha
His most recent stuff has mostly been a mix of rain world and noita
idk leg, none of us seriously watched him after he was talking about how animal well had 1000 hours of content
We just found him funny
Spooky would you describe blue prince as a genre bending enigma?
Oh this video is pre launch of the game
spooky this video is a hype piece
the game was not out yet
I didn't even realize
idk if the title came first or what
but I kind of suspect it did
"let's make a board game about laying blueprints down, and call it blueprince"
we'll figure out the in-universe reason for what a "Blue Prince" is later
I also fully recommend this game to anyone who likes Nancy Drew type stuff
Was the 123 GB leak true
I fucking hate modern games
Just make HD (4k) textures free dlc, and stop dumping uncompressed raw audio, its not fucking needed
It is literally mostly just 4k textures and dumping uncompressed audio 90% of the time
This is such an easy to fix solution
Chad animal well being small enough to be uploaded to discord for everyone to play
12 dollar day 1 dlc
hell yeah
I have zero interest in this game despite liking skyrim
I own the original
never played it, got it for free
same with morrowind
never played, got it for free
Polu almost talked me into playing daggerfall so I could talk with him about it until he told me how long it was
You don't have time though Rusp, you are locked into gamedev arc
unfortunately
