The MP3’s Are On Bandcamp

As you can see from the cover art links to the side there, I’ve moved the soundtrack over to Bandcamp where you can listen to it for free online, and if you really want to own it, you can pay what you think it’s worth (starting at $0). So far the site has been an absolute joy to use, and how many websites and hosting services can you really say that about? Not to mention they have Defender built into their stats page. Just sayin’.

In other news, Soulcaster landed on TMA Toy Review’s “5 great indie games for under $15”.

The Caption Says It All

Just in case this indie dev thing doesn’t work out, I’m keeping up with my modeling career.

Want to know the full story? Then be sure to see Hideo this November.

The World Is Saved – Any Games Like This?

I was blown away by the artistry and animation in this video. I can always count on Brian to find stuff like this, including the making-of post.

The art reminded me of old rotoscoped classics like Out of This World. Have there been any low-res, low-color, high-frame-count, non-tiled animation style games in the last 15 years? It would take a good amount of work, but there’s a classic waiting to be revealed to the world.
