I really like the kaleidoscope entry. :) I've always loved games with abstract artwork and (sometimes) ambient music like that. Games like loco roco, patapon, katamari damacy. The artwork in those games is really unique and the music adds to the effect :mrgreen:

Welp, looks like they still have passive aggressive anger issues.

Dear god, they actually ported ES to a piece of celery!

I can't say that I care too much. Their latest video was a bunch of flashing "screenshots" for a product they clearly don't have. No gameplay footage?

So they went from greatest indie game ever, to decent little mini shooter, to this. Am I seeing a trend?

What we want to do with Elysian Shadows goes way above and beyond having bitchfights with a bunch of kiddie pricks who can't even finish a game with XNA.

They're just being competitive (video-wise, certainly not product-wise). I think it's somewhat amusing.

I can just imagine their meetings off-camera

They probably go a little something like this...
Programmer: we're falling behind schedule on the game, I hit a technical snag again...

Manager: really? again?, we were really pushing for a video this month, didn't you film a single scene where you change an argument in a function before you broke the game again?

Programmer: nope, camera ran out of film, damn!

Manager, hey! did you do some more pointless posing and concept art?

Artist: nope.



PR Guy: then this calls for desperate measures! we're losing subscribers, perhaps we could be douchebags to another development team again?

Manager: that sort of backfired on us last time, didn't it?

PR Guy: bad publicity is still publicity, let's do it!!!!!!!1111!1!!1!!
Long story short, they're using this as 'Filler' as they have nothing else to show
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think I can program pretty well, it's my compiler that needs convincing!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And now a joke to lighten to mood :D

I wander what programming language anakin skywalker used to program C3-PO's AI back on tatooine? my guess is Jawa :P

Umm, have you not seen their video about how their "token gangster black guy" bought a Snuggie? Geez, that's the premium content!

Competitive video-wise would be "Check out our newest implementations! Aren't they neat? Try to beat that!" not "hurp durp he want people to call him a video game character aint he weird!??!" They legitimately still think Falco isn't his birth given name.

So? Neither do I. It's far too awesome.

I haven't been keeping up with events (at all) & haven't even seen their latest video...but my primary response is "about goddamned time!"

It was over a full year ago that we said "time to stop talking shit, & let your GAME talk shit." So, its taken them this long to develop something far enough along to "get even" with? Lulz.

Programmerinprogress, rofl!!!

Man, I certainly hope you don't deem their videos worthy of competition against ours. We work sleepless nights to have actual content to present in our videos (which is why you haven't seen us in months). If you guys thought a couple random screenshots and some shit-talking was Youtube quality, we would be at Adventures in Game Development Chapter 99 by now.

You better watch out, cause their trailer is going to be made by "someone popular"! 8-)

They are also going to learn very soon that moving onto a new project is a way to effectively kill any current project.
