The coding re: assets is not the hard part. Actually building all those assets is. They could find a bunch of open license poo poo I guess, but they have to make it look good it wall have to be from the same source to be consistent.

Axiom Verge is what happens when you try and make a Metroid game with no artistic ability.

If you wanted to rebrand a fan game you could always pay an artist to make assets but any extra money you put into the project is reliant on people actually buying your game. I don't know if there is a huge audience willing to put down money for Portable Creatures: Uranium.

I'm my sudden realization that Mario's hat doesn't have a baseball hat-like brim and is actually some thick thing stuffed with digital cotton.

The big games for Switch are awesome this year, but I'm a little disappointed that we didn't get more indie announcements. I know the games are coming, but some target release dates would be very nice.

I'm guessing we'll have one or two more big directs before the year's out. Maybe even a Nindies showcase.

There's basically one game I'd be interested in playing coming out every 1 -2 months for the rest of the year. It's pretty rad. Hoping for more indie titles soon but tbh between Stardew Valley, Thumper and Shovel Knight I think the best indie games are already out!

Odyssey looks cool and I'll buy it but drat the new New Donk City level is ugly as hell and looks really drab and sparse. It's like it's half unfinished.

I don't really get this. I mean, does no one remember that most of Bob Omb Battlefield was a big open field? This is in line with that, but with multiple stuff hidden throughout.

That's just how the sandbox Mario games verses the course based ones are.

Those things are pretty clearly based on the moai statues in the easton kingdom.

The Sand Kingdom seems to have a bunch of nods to Sarasland/Super Mario Land.

Yeah, but Nyko's coolers have had a history of shorting and causing damage to the very thing it was designed to protect which is :thejoke:.

You made me shoot off the toilet mid poo poo, turd water dripping as I sped towards my docked switch two rooms away. I tapped the home button three times in such fury and joy I could barely see an inch beyond my nose. Nintendo credit available and ready to be used I hungrily pressed the store button ready for Stardew...

GungHo is developing a game for the Switch. It's an "action game for all ages with a lighter, comical tone" whose "gameplay style that has not been seen before". No idea when it's coming out.
