>find this weird ps2 game called evil twin cyprien's chronicles, first and only time I've ever seen or heard about it>play it for a few hours, think it's ok at best>fast forward a week later, working retail>notice something familiar on the back of a t-shirt>it's a dude wearing a t-shirt with this game's cover art on the backthis happened in the span of a week 5+ years ago while working in a fuck all town, I think about it every so often
we planned this
>>739560286You are just a zoomer.
>absolutely amazing art direction>absolutely abysmal gameplayHave few free bumps OP.Did you like the game?
If you will ever check Evil Twin on mobygames you can find out that guys who did the graphics and music went on to do some great games later on. Everyone else was never heard off again in vidya industry.
>>739560286How is the game? I looked through A list of roms and also noticed it. Is it anygood? Its on Dreamcast as well i think. It only came out in PAL which is probably why no one knows it existed.
>>739562041It's a hub-based platformer.There's a PC version, but it's incredibly hard to run. Also likes to corrupt your save file and game files, making some levels completely miss geometry or crash. Same savefile can work differently on multiple PCs. The gameplay is really bad. Platforming is awkward, like really awkward and there a separate buttons for "pause" and for "instantly quit the game no questions asked". It gets better after the first hub, but the first hub made me drop the game at least twice.
>>739560286He looks like Chucky
Also correction on the art director.Stéphane Bachelet went to make Rabbids and then is credited in yearly releases of Just Dance.Other guys like Cédric Toton went to work on Tom Clancy games.
>>739560286Holy shit I remember this gameShit was so hard I never beat it
Most of those textures only appear once or twice in the entire game. The whole game is like that, with little setpieces with stupidly detailed textures.
>>739561856Like that bdsm box. There's only one box like that in the entire game, in an area you spend 5 minutes in. Some of those make me wonder how did this game get 11+ age rating.
Don't open, moon inside.
>>739560286>this happened in the span of a week 5+ years ago while working in a fuck all town, I think about it every so oftenGod is sending you a message, but some times we're too dumb to understand what it means or even notice it. >Twin = 2 of you or yourself>Children can also be said to be of you and part of yourselfGod is telling you to talk to that girl you like and have kids.
Screenshots look neat. I never heard of this what with being a burger. Kinda reminds me of Alice.
>>739562041>How is the game?Dogshit, gameplaywise.A while ago people posted a playthrough of it and during platforming sections you could see multiple visible cuts in the video because the controls are awkward as hell.There's also some bizarre shit like a limited amount of time you can pause/open the menu and IIRC a Resident Evil-esque ink-ribbon save system.
>>739561856I actually did like the game a lot, the graphics, characters and story were all pretty good. though it was on a ps2 so it played like shit
>>739563259Nah, there are plenty of PS2 games which play nice. It's just Evil Twin is kinda bad. Like this fucking level with not a single piece of solid ground. 100% platforming in literal sense from start to finish.
>>739563405Evil Twin is built for Dreamcast so it naturally kind of sucks as a platform game. Feels dated while coming out post millennium like it's supposed to be an N64 game as well.
>>739564924I'd actually blame the devs most of which barely had worked on any video games before. Probably somewhere out there are some interviews and documentaries how troubled was the development but I'm too lazy to look for those.
