thank god for indie devs making like tiny little maximum 10 megabyte freeware games on itchio keeping the art of filesize optimization alive. ASSET REUSE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#im watching a video about wario land music -> 'the bizarre music and sound design of wario land 4' by geno7
#good video so far! i like this guys stuff. he talked a bit about how they did some of the sound effects for warios voice
#a very like. chopped and remixed sample style of doing his vocal lines. which is very cool 1) because it saves a bit of
#precious space on that gba cartridge BUT ALSO 2) it just sounds cool and interesting stylistically
#and man sometimes trying to keep a file size down really does give way for some really interesting stuff
#on my own personal interests in games i ADORE rpg makers rtp and how people can find creative uses for it
#i love that a bunch of games can draw from the same asset pool as one install on ur computer
#no bloating your hardrive with a bunch of copies of the same assets - its just already here!
#and from a developers perspective i love when they reuse old assets from other games in new weird ways
#some small visual novel companies will reuse backgrounds and other assets
#altho i dont mind a bit of bloat with VNs since a big draw can be the big pretty images and big pretty sounds
#but its still cool when people find ways to get creative with space saving. and from a players perspective its also nice
#space is cheap nowadays. but its not Free. we can swallow terabytes whole with micro sds and everything
#but a lot of players dont get the chance or ability to upgrade their internal memory that often. so i think being considerate of filesize i
#very important. and thats not even getting into the download bandwidth limits - a lot of people all across north america can only get like
#internet from 1 provider and that 1 provider often likes to upcharge and limit shit because they can
#we might live in a future where a lot of powerful technology exists. but access to that tech is another story
#so remember the filesize. remember the filesize.
#dies in your arms
