Damon and Baby is going to be the low budget baby's-first-video-game kusoge that's going to carry me through the darkest nights. I translated some text from the trailer that they didn't translate in the voice over for the English stream

The Demon King, who is stuck with a human child, now begins his journey to break the curse

So the plot is that you play as Basically Satan and are cursed with a human baby that you wanna get rid of super bad. I'm assuming "Damon" is a play on daemon, or "demon." It looks like there are probably angels in this too (the woman on the left in this cap).

The showcase made it sound like Daisuke Ishiwatari isn't directing or working on this game so much as he's started an initiative to help fund/guide the first game for new developers that have potential and get their foot in the door so they can go on to make really good games in the future. He brought up how rough the first Guilty Gear was and how it's sold over a million copies now, which is kind of crazy.

A lot of people are really mad about this game because it wasn't a Guilty Gear project, Blazblue resurrection announcement, or some other fighting game thing, but a lot of people seem to have missed the previous announcement where ASW said there is going to be Strive news at Anime Expo on July 4th with GGST producer Ken Miyauchi and CDPR Japan Country Manager Satoru Homma. ASW also JUST announced Marvel Tokon like last week.

I don't think Damon and Baby is going to be earth-shatteringly good or even very unique, but it's a project Daisuke feels has enough promise to make it the first game he's supporting through his new "mid-range" (i.e., low budget) newbie dev project. He's using his position as a successful games developer and known name in the industry to take a risk on smaller creators like how ASW did for him and Guilty Gear, and it would be extremely disappointing if the fighting game community directed their anger at not having Guilty Gear news a week before the planned Guilty Gear news at this game and project.

People often talk about (especially on here) how they wished there were more games with smaller budgets and worse graphics that didn't work their devs to the bone to create. This is that game and that project.

Explaining The Summer Hikaru Died Poorly:

It's like John Carpenter's The Thing if, instead of possessing a bunch of paranoid men and some unfortunate dogs, it possessed a single Japanese high school boy in Podunk, Nowhere, Japan, whose gay crush on his best friend is so strong that even the murderous, otherworldly monster wants to see how this yaoi plays out.

[barufisher]

yeah i do think it really sucks actually that we finally get dwarf lore this game but it’s handled so poorly and completely at the expense of the elves. i also dont like that it flattens the dwarves & ignores what lore we have seen previously.

@ikarons pointed out to me that kal-sharok specifically is the thaig that destroyed the original cadash thaig for sheltering elves fleeing the tevinter emperium after the fall of artlathan (which is a huge glaring piece of information to exclude here). kal-sharok has both been previously abandoned to die by their own people and also committed horrific acts of violence and they are completely separate from orzammar (and resent them!) but this game presents the dwarves as this homogeneous entity that doesn’t hold any fault or complexity... we know there is a huge variation in dwarf culture and politics that just doesn't get acknowledged at all; they do them a huge disservice by focusing entirely on Harding and how special she is and how evil the evanuris are.

this was a real missed opportunity in my opinion to give more depth to both the evanuris and the dwarves, but we lose all of that in this game because people can only be good or bad and we can’t have any nuance, it was all the evanuris's fault and they did it just because they're so evil. and we'll blame the elves, too, while we're at it. sad!

I think apart of why Sunkissed ended up the way that it did was because of their Poor Communication, and it isn't just "Not Saying Things" with them, its that they have such different communication styles that they struggle to understand eachother.

A really strong example is actually Post-Confrontation where Derapchu messages Princezam "I Forgive You.", it wasn't manipulation like people say it is or even Derapchu saying that Zam should apologise. If you watch the scene back, Zam keeps repeating "I just can't be wrong, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I just can't be wrong."

What Derapchu was saying to him is that he didn't hold that interaction against Zam, and it was meant to come across as Derapchu still being in Zams corner because he understands that Zam couldn't be wrong. But I know how it came across and, instead of either of them communicating what they really meant, Derap sent a message which is very easy to interpret as Manipulative or as Sarcastic or Derapchu not considering Zams feelings and Zam just didn't say anything.

Part of the problem will always be what they didn't say to eachother however I think we also need to be looking at how different they communicate and literally Use Words for looking what went Wrong in Sunkissed too.

The LNP (coalition) just divorced and things are about to get very interesting in Australian politics.

To ausplain to the people outside of Australia: Imagine if the Conservative Politically Right-wing Party was actually two smaller parties in a trenchcoat, who decided to work together over 70 (edit: ITS BEEN 80 ACTUALLY) years ago to defeat the centre-ish party once and for all, and had been happily married as one Coalition ever since. They, and the centre party are the Two Major Parties.

In the election we just had, the Coalition was so badly defeated by the very party they had been created to defeat that they lost even what they assumed were ‘safe seats’ because their only policies were 1) build new nuclear powerplants with no economic or infrastructural reason behind it and 2) end wokeness by fucking over the poors

Instead of taking a look at themselves and admitting that ‘hey maybe those were both bad ideas’, the Coalition insisted they just didn’t emphasize the evilness of socialism enough. One of the little parties in the trenchcoat however realized that maybe Nuclear was a bad idea. Their other half? They insisted that No, it Is The Science/Economics/Infrastructure That Is Wrong. This became an internal argument so bad that they have decided to Split. The coalition as of yet hasn’t officially dissolved but they’ve bought different homes and are splitting their stuff.

So what does this mean for Australia going forward? Well. Currently that means that Labor (the centre party) is now our only Major Party. Experts are suggesting that the divorcees - the Liberals and the Nationals - will probably still vote along similar lines, but it’s less than guaranteed like it previously was. In the meantime, there may be two options for a new second major party.

The more centre conservatives decide to form a new coalition with the Teal Independents, who are kind of more like the fabled economic-conservatives of old, as opposed to reactionary-cultural-conservatives. This would be more ideal but it’s probably not very likely

The evil option is that the end-wokeness divorcee will team up with One Nation and Trumpet of Patriots (yes that is a real party and exactly as awful as they sound) to form the Super Mega Culturally Out Of Touch Far Right party.

There’s probably more options than this but these are the main two coming to mind. This also has consequences for Labor. Do they slip more right? They held a majority before this but now they become even harder to defeat, and a new culturally-far-right party would shift the Overton window more right. Or does the emergence of a new economic-right party force labor to actually start voting more economic-left policies? Who tf knows? (No seriously if you know anything about aus policies and parties please @ me)

Hii I would love if you share some sketchs advice to improve our art!! And also how you pick your palette colours

Not sure what I can provide for sketching advice i'm alot more coloring focused ackk😔🙏🏼 I personally like to sketch super messy and go back in to erase and clean things up. I copy sketch layers VERY LIBERALLY just in case I mess something up along the way lmao.

As for picking colors it just revolves around the character palette or what mood/scene the drawing is set in. 99% of the time flat colors are picked directly from the character and I just shade around it with colors that fit (ex: orangey or pinkish colors for julie, orangey or brownish colors for wally, blue blue blueeeee for barnaby)

This changes when I'm trying to set a mood or specific scene though. If it's a late night throw some blues and purples for shadows down, if I'm trying something spookier darker shadows like browns and blacks work better ykyk
