That's their whole thing

2 games a month that anyone on the patreon gets. At the level I'm at I also get the source code for all of them.

Are their games mostly good or are they just like "oh this is interesting for something pushed out on such a quick schedule" or is the quality all over the place?

They're mostly good but what varies for me at least is if they're a genre I'm interested in. Some are obviously gonna be higher quality than others but nothing has really struck me as "bad" yet.

Is this going to be one of those games where I constantly have to be minmaxing or I’ll be obliterated

you won't need to min-max, you just need a mid-level understanding of the systems. which you won't get just by playing, you have to pay a lot of attention.

the best advice i can give you is that your Physical Attack and Magic Attack, the two really low numbers by the sword and staff on your status screen, are basically hard multipliers (and sometimes just straight up logarithmic) because they're so marginal. so, value equipment that increases Speed, PA or MA, and maybe Move (in that order) over HP and MP, if you want to succeed

That tweet would be an interesting conversation for me to have with my game art friends about the explicit and implicit effects of "art style" as an element of game design, but presented on Twitter by Chet it's some kind of representation of an absolute law of game marketing from on high or something.

Chet's tweets mostly just make me tired. More so than Rami's.

I'm reminded of how any decently-animated 2D game sometimes gets categorized negatively as being a flash game because only flash would have decent 2d animation. Mostly thinking about Hollow Knight here.

Fuck you say?
Simple graphical styles are a blessing because they allow low budget teams to still make meaningful experiences

Stardew, Dusk, ANATOMY, countless others are all incredible games and even I get tempted to try and make something despite having the artistic ability of a lemon

Personally I think 90's 3D or sketchy drawn art are some of the best mediums for horror games because they naturally obfuscate whatever they're depicting
