Even though this is obviously targeted at me, I agree with it.


It wasn't targeted at anyone! aaaa why cant you guys make topics about this stuff so i can argue without sounding like i am "pulling a max mcgee" (sorry max mcgee!!)

Space Funeral Review

It was made in RPG Maker because the most interesting thing about electronic games is not whatever boring calculator/boardgame shit passes for gameplay but the ability to make and explore a space which is experienced in a completely different way than in other media, which leads to differences in pacing and structure etc.

Thanks for the review! It's really not a parody at all apart from like a couple of lines and the forest castle cutscene or whatever. I wouldn't even call it a comedy as opposed to a lighthearted adventure game but thats just me I guess. The final section was based on a line from Italo Calvino's "Invisible Cities" as well as being a joke about the RM chipset system.

Moon was actually kind of an exaggerated parody of my own gamemaking ideas in that she's someone who'd rather live in a horrible grotesque mspaint bloodworld than sit through the same boring "polished" graphics leading to entropy etc. It's kind of facetious because it turns out your goal is to turn the world back into another generic rtp game.


Most of the songs sound straight out of Woodstock, or at the very least modern interpretations of that entire movement.

It was actually all 70s british electronica iirc (fuck woodstock). The only actual psychedelic track in the game is the battle victory / game over theme which was taken from 7&7 Is by Love.

ahahaha

Phillip was actually kind of inspired by Charlie Brown because I was reading one of those Complete Peanuts books at the time (also explaining presence of Lucy (Lucy owns)). There was a little of that though (a..v..e..n...g..e......m..e....) but you guys can take it right *punches arm a little too hard* RIGHT

how obviously this game is catmitts parodying and satirizing certain things he hates about the RM community.


I actually kinda intended it as a pretty earnest attempt to win people over to my ideas of what more RM games should be like :(
perhaps. . . perhaps like kid icarus i flew too high and was lost . . . . . . .

wait didnt i make this joke already

Space Funeral Review

aaa anything i write is gonna come off as a gross defensive nooo-my-worthless-star-rating thing but alas. . . mayhap our roles are already set ~ vivi ff9. I don't care about ratings since they're always worthless buuut

That's just a "fuck you" to games that might not be involved with as many drugs but still work on being decent games.


That was basically the purpose of this game. Like if you want to talk about beating off over mediocrity let's talk about the legions of incredibly worthless and boring anime games which get halfhearted props because the creator spent a lot of time polishing up the dialogue of the stupid derivative characters into something which is vaguely acceptable to illiterate 15-year-olds if they squint or smearing lighting effects over everything like Thomas Kinkade with a Blingee account or making sure the fucking chipsets line up properly or balancing the numbers or all the other ways people try to gild their boring fangame garbage. The combat in this game is fairly awful and that's a completely valid reason to hate it but if you're gonna try to use this as some kind of cautionary tale to prod people back into that absolutely disgusting and pathetic circlejerk horseshit about sufficient levels of polishing being more important than some absolute minimum level of thought or actual creativity than nah gonna have to vehemently disagree *rolls up sleeves to reveal anchor tattoo* because even more so than ripped graphics or poor gameplay I'd say that's (rightly) 100% of the reason why noone with any kind of taste or standards worth caring about regards RPG Maker games as anything other than a bad joke.

Games that have stood the test of time?


still the best videogame
