A Sweeping Journey Down The Path In The Woods: Slay The Princess Pristine Cut Interview

When I saw this, I immediately sent the link to a gamedev I know who has a disability. They were really excited 🥰
The two guys on the front have very narrow and longs faces^^; purple dude got hit the worst
There already is a review by otomekitten btw!
GDoc Expo is all about uplifting talented developers with perspectives and stories that otherwise don't get a lot of attention in mainstream gamedev circles and media otherwise. That's why it's important to support events like these.
If you would like, you can check out the hundreds of other gamedev events on gameconfguide! Why not participate in #notGDC this year? It's free, open for everyone, and there's a low barrier of entry 😉
we discussed this over in !otomegames@ani.social back when it was initially announced! The fandom seems to be delighted about this feature, but I'm personally more concerned about the data privacy aspect of it all...the author is absolutely right to look at this whole thing with scepticism
I find it a little far-fetched to solely link the popularity of otome games to some kind of frustration with modern dating, though. Romance games (and romance in games, e.g. Baldur's Gate 3 or Mass Effect) offer a lot of fun in-and-of themselves.
It's true that many gachas use VN format for storytelling, but from what I see they aren't generally considered VNs 🤔 I'd say the critical difference is that the core gameplay consists of character collection, resource management, upgrades, and whatever battle system/interactive game mechanics the game uses, rather than story? Though I spent a considerable amount of time reading the main story and side stories in granblue fantasy myself..
It's a section at the bottom of the steam store page:
Is Gnosia good? I found out about it via the anime announcement and got curious
I've played those "Choice of" games before, but that was a few years ago 🤔
There is the !adventuregames@lemm.ee community though! It's more of a general narrative game community, but IF is included
SE didn't pull any punches with that artwork ;v;
We get a boyband outfit for this event, so I'm really excited for it!!
Seconding this, but thanks for the heads up, this is how I found out about the update!
