I’m betting toys for bobs next game is a spyro or skylanders one they posted this on their twitter a few minutes ago
We’re excited to announce that we’ll be partnering with Xbox to publish our next new game. We’re still very early in development, so you might not hear from us for a bit - but know that we’re working hard on an experience we’re so sooo inspired about! Can’t wait to share more :purple_heart:

The jury-rigged soundtrack of The Rogue Prince of Persia was copyright-striked.
But Ubisoft published it wholesale, as they apparently usually do for their games.

With a Lo-fi beats to study to aestetic. Persian edition.

Wow that main theme SLAPS!

In terms of early access roguelikes, I think I’ll be getting Hades 2 sometime and see how it evolves into a completed product, since I’ve got such an attachment with the first game.

I’ll be very excited to see how Rogue PoP fares next year once it fully releases on consoles. I’ve heard great first impressions already.

Very excited for Yooka-Replaylee given how much I love the first game, though I would’ve preferred Tooka-Laylee instead. I do still think they’re doing Tooka-Laylee, this might be just to bring the first game up to the level of the sequel.

From the trailer and Steam page, it seems like they are making several improvements: new camera, better challenges, more collectibles in the hub world, Vendi’s tonics getting overhauled, a map and challenge tracker, etc.

My hopes for things: more enemy variety, Rextro’s minigames being tweaked so they’re actually good (or just cut out entirely, for that matter), warp pads in the levels, Flappy Flight not being available everywhere, making the world expansions more significant, actually putting the God-tier Yooka Laylee rap in the game, and finally doing something with the “Loading Exposition” super secret UFO.

Never buy a game in Early Access unless you’re an idiot, but do Wishlist this game in Early Access so you can buy the shit out of it when it’s finished:

Jason Schreier article on Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League development is out:
(archived version for reading access)

The game failed for a number of reasons, said the people, including a constantly shifting vision, a culture of rigid perfectionism and a genre pivot that was ill-suited for the studio.

In short:

  • WB was the one pitching for a live service game. Rocksteady had the final say, and so was the one accepting it. Because they wanted to do something different after all the Arkham games
  • Everything else was on Rocksteady leadership (including the founders that left during development)
    • the during development abandonment of melee for gunplay,
    • not listening to internal feedback, including the incomprehension of the design decisions,
    • constant prototyping and rejection for a lack of focus, and no study to comprehend the genre,
    • and finally Rocksteady very own version of “Bioware magic”, “it will all come together at the very end no matter how everything feels wrong”.
