LIVE NOW - Judero

this is the coolest game anyone has ever made

[sorenblr]

How's this for an ask: name your favourite videogame visual artists (character designers, environment artists, etc.) and if possible, why you like them in brief

Love the opener on this ask. More of these should have a 'hook'.

I'll try to hit a few that aren't total bank shots. Not going to waste your time with Toriyama, Amano, Kaneko etc., since their work and appeal is already extensively documented. Here are a few from outside the canon:

Mitsuru Nakamura

Perfect expression of the millennial (as in, 'relating to the new millenium') fascination with maximalist pop aesthetics. Flawless 'cute-cool' balance. Playing Gitaroo Man and being exposed to FLCL at approximately the same time made me feel like a fucking god.

I would love for another game with his involvement but I'm aware that a graphical fidelity superior to that of the PS2 would diminish the effect.

Hitoshi Yoneda

Prior to the millennium there was a more liberal crossover between the medium and artists from other commercial disciplines. It was simply more expedient to contract established illustrators like Jun Suemi et al. to decorate covers with lavish oil paints. My favorite work from that era was produced under Yoneda's fairly brief partnership with Sega. All the baroque genre fixings captured with a delicate line. The amount of brilliant watercolor work that was being done at the end of the century is staggering to look back on.

Rika should have that giant robot prosthetic in the actual game and it should take up 30-40% of the frame in every cutscene.

Jack King-Spooner

Jack King-Spooner has been spitting out these fantastic mixed-media works for over a decade. Claymation, line-drawings, watercolors, collage, everything administered with virtuoso ease. Inspiring magnifications of what a game can look and feel like.

His most recent work, Judero, a radical pastiche of folklore from the Scottish borderlands, is the only Kickstarter that I've ever contributed to. Will you wishlist it, or are you some sort of piece of shit...?

Judero is a truly unique hand-made and stop motion animated indie game centered around Scottish mythology. we played the demo (which is still available btw! you can check it out here!) a few months back and loved the heck out of it, not least bc of its stellar soundtrack.

WHY DOES THE SOUNDTRACK FOR JUDERO, A NICHE 4 HOUR GAME WITH ONLY 124 REVIEWS ON STEAM, HAVE OVER 80 TRACKS

[saintadeline]

Hi i just finished playing Judero today and I don't usually talk about games i play here but in this specific case i really think you should play it if you can. It might not resonate with everyone but then again it doesnt need to, its a piece of art you simply appreciate, the amount of craft and love put into it is inspiring me greatly and i think more people should get to see it. If you like hand crafted physical objects, stop motion, claymation and especially the bizarre and grotesque type of claymation, Please check it out. If you like folklore and like thinking about the meaning folklore gives humanity (and vice versa), Please check it out. My message to you

19th's Steam Next Fest Impressions Day 3

Day 0/Day 1/Day 2

Year Unknown

You wake up in a superstructure called "The Library" said to house all human information across all time periods. You seem to be the only living human there. You find an AI who claims you're the first person they've talked to in years. Soon later, you learn there's a distress signal coming from "the center."

sparse demo, and the gameplay is lite. Walk around to find a terminal and then have a foreboding or philosophical conversation with an AI. Repeat. Demo was very short, just enough time to tell the premise, the tone, and a stinger hook. Interested, but it feels like it's yet to "prove itself."

SCHiM

Lo-fi Ghost Trick. You play as a man's shadow, which somehow becomes split from his host. Said host doesn't really notice due to being recently fired and going through the psychological torment of being incredibly unemployed.

Jump from shadow to shadow. If you land on non-shadowed space, you have a single jump to reach another shadow. Otherwise, you are teleported backward. When in an object's shadow, you can press interact to make it do various things.

At the start it didn't feel like a puzzle game, just an uninteresting platformer with a gimmick. 2nd half of the demo does show off some interesting concepts, like having to cross a bridge with no shadows, so you need to find a runner that will eventually cross it, or trying to go up a street where all the foot traffic is moving down.

But it never really felt actively challenging. The trailer suggests some stuff that might have teeth, but it seems like this is a game where you're mostly here for the vibes.

Judero

I will give the game this: it's built a really distinctive aesthetic and tone for itself. Mixed media that includes claymation, action figures, photos, and hand drawn artwork, all wrapped around what appears to be a deep appreciation for scottish mythology.

And it doesn't work for me at all.

Without that hook, the action adventure game underneath it just feels kinda bland.

I'm sure if someone was knee deep in the mythology, or more appreciative of its deliberately ragtag visuals, it would click better. But that someone is not me.

The Blue Prince

Your fuckoff rich great uncle has bequeathed you his fortune in the will. The problem is that in order to claim this inheritence, you have to find the 46th room of his 45-room manor. you have a limited number of days to do this.

Further exasperating the issue: He has a House of Leaves House that changes layout every day.

the way this comes into gameplay is that every time you open a door, you're given 3 possible room layouts to slot into the blueprint. At first, the puzzle seems to be "get the right combination of tiles to reach the antechamber in the back of the building," where it's easy to dead-end yourself if you aren't careful. But I see a metapuzzle brewing beneath it. Having to fulfill some condition once you get there, as well as finding scraps of a longer family history.

Add to that an interesting routing puzzle with your character having a stamina value that goes down one every time you enter a room, even when backtracking. And there's some need for backtracking, stuff like finding a breaker box to fix an electrical problem in another room.

So far, it's my favorite demo in the next fest. I knew I was getting into something nice when the game told me to grab a notebook.

i dont think anythign in a game has made me as indescribably happy as this sequence in judero where i fly around a field of cows as a tiny pink bunny sitting on a cloud collecting hearts to the point i was brought to actual tears

[daihime-sama]

The demo for the indie game Judero was a guaranteed emotional roller coaster, even for someone with a heart as black as Hime-Sama's.

SHE KNIGHT ON MY BEWITCHED CUZ THAT DRAGON IS A LIL BITCH (dragon not depicted above)

We've defeated Knight Bewitched, and lesbianism has won! (For now. The forces of evil may arise again. Perhaps they, too, will embrace lesbianism.)

We've talked about A LOT of games that have released or are about to be released very soon. Why not start a new adventure today from this large and diverse selection?

(The Plucky Squire just released today! A storybook hero leaps off the page with his friends, action-adventuring between the worlds of 2D and 3D from a team co-founded by James Turner, an artist whose work you might have seen in the Pokemon franchise.)

(UFO 50 is a passion project years in the making releasing tomorrow, offering up a diverse library of games from a fictional 1980s video game company, ranging from co-op titles to JRPGs to golf, some of them quite large.)

(Witching Stone is a chain-casting roguelike with a nostalgic looking cast of gals that released yesterday. It has a 15% launch discount.)

(Lorn's Lure, an atmospheric first person platformer inspired by titles like Blame! where you can climb any surface with your pickaxe, is releasing this Friday.)

(I Am Your Beast, a speed-running revenge thriller FPS from Strange Scaffold, has you "Hunt the military-industrial complex" in this release from last week. It has a 10% launch discount until Tuesday next week.)

(Judero is a hand animated stop-motion action-adventure based on the folklore of Scotland and scored with a British folk soundtrack. It released yesterday, and has a 10% launch discount.)

(Starstruck: Hands of Time is more than just a Guitar Hero controller compatible, story-rich rhythm game. Wreck the diorama-style town as a time-traveling giant hand; this game has the air of a creative little title that would have released a few console generations ago. 10% launch discount, it released yesterday.)

(Hollowbody is a tech-noir survival horror title reminiscent of PS2 horror games with its artstyle and dynamic fixed camera angles (and optional tank controls). It has a 10% launch discount, and released last Thursday.)

(The Marvel VS Capcom collection just released. Go get beat by the Wazzler.)

The game of the day is The Last Humble Bee, a survivors-like with a dodge-rolling pixelated cartoon bumble bee that descends into hell to save the bees!)
