I've never encountered such a game, but a game with too much soul would be one that only the dev alone could enjoy

I always liked the early-3D pre-render aesthetic, it is a very pure a naive style.

There's a reason why Quartz Slipstream Dragons are all employed as messengers: they fly at the speed of light.

Gotta stretch the runtime somehow, that small segment of level design alone probably took 2 years to make in-between scrolling through tiktok all day and constantly whining on Xitter/Bluesky about how hard game development is.

Your sense of time is fucked up from watching gameplay videos on youtube at 2x speed.

It's fantastic, but it also helps if the story is great too. Shadow Raiders and ReBoot are some of my most favorite television shows and the old CGI gives it some charm; hell, even Babylon 5's ancient CGI is great. The best use of old CGI and story, in my eyes, has to be Blood Omen. I don't care how amateurish and shitty it looks to Soul Reaver, the original Blood Omen is a classic.
It's games like Blood Omen, among various other games, films, and books, that inspire me to make my game. To just completely copy one single game (like most of these Twitter "gamedevs") is just silly.

NTA, but it is a common fact that terminally online twittards cannot make a game. Examples include:
>Bunny Bounce
>Printern
>The game OP posted
It's an irrefutable fact.

Soul isn't a real word.
Anybody who tries to describe something as being "soulful" is just trying to make that thing look good without knowing what actually makes it good.
It's a low-IQ descriptor that equates to "dude trust me".

The texture's pretty good but anybody who hasn't had mochi would probably feel that they're off or stale.

>yet everyone can grasp the concept
That's the funny part: They can't.
They use it as a replacement for "think I like / don't like" because they can't explain anything about it.
It's like zoomers saying something gives bad "vibes".

Why copy one of the most cancerous genres in video game history? It was soulless then and it's soulless now.

It's one of many newfag buzzwords because they can't communicate outside of a handful of pre-programmed terms and they wish to find others like themselves, as if it were a mating call.

The stretch on the jumps is way too much.

something that's made with heart, that the artist cared about creating and something he'd want to engage with himself, not cold, calculated, and made just for the sake of being made or to make a quick buck

Exaggerated and unnecessary squash and stretch with the only purpose of covering lack of quality

not really. there is more text that narrows it down later in that post
>>
>>722845917
skill based qualities like a sense of color, design, movement, and other more specific things.
modern art in videogames often lacks skill though its difficult for people to tell or put their finger on whats wrong
older art in videogames was often made by highly skilled artists though its difficult for people to describe why its good.

>no polygon wobbling
GOOD, I'm so sick of this fake snoy nostalgia bullshit
the other bullshit can stay fucked off as well
