Scavenger, I love you, I am not trying to offend you, and if that's the vibe you're getting out of me, then apologies, I may have worded things in an awful way. What I'm saying is that we should allow all game possibilities to exist in the market, and take them down by not supporting them, and by rating and by voicng our opinion, but without censoring them in our ways. Let the game be released, is all I say, then voice your complete and full opinion if you wish so.

This is a great example on how much we look at a tree and lose an entire forest. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBPgXjkfBXM albeit an entirely different topic.

"Notice how nobody is complaining about The Cat Lady? I played it myself, it's pretty good." That's only because they have the privilege of being able to actually play the game.

I'm sorry but you're judging a game you have not played, and I can do the same. And saying that Postal 2 is okay, but Hatred isn't, is very very hypocritical. It's one thing critiquing and voicing your opinion and another thing actively enforcing it against a developer. It should be every gamer's right to play what they want, no matter how different it is to the public opinion/common opinion. And actively nagging and voicing how much appaled you are at a game's content and doing the best you can to boycott the game, Hatred being the game, sending emails, making reddit posts, doing youtube videos, rallying people to boycott it, disables and makes it more difficult for the developers to release it. And more importantly you're denying it from the gaming community, and disrespecting the minority who would find its premise enjoyable, no matter how surprising that may be to you.

By discriminating games based on certain standards set now, it makes me wonder, weren't those standards higher before Postal was out? Please, be serious. The only proper way to deal with Hatred is set a rating to mature and ask the developers to warn their players of its content, not deny access to Hatred in the market, cause that's what's happening. In the same way you're judging this game, your game can be judged. It can be viewed as a creation of a furry-lover weirdo, full of sexual bombardment only to please furries. But is that your game?

For example, to realize the stupidity in censoring things, and being as smallminded as you can, instead of embracing the offerings of one author, no matter how weird and outworld-ish and offensive they may be for various reasons (and these can exist) and attempt to enrich or grasp a better opinion of your surroundings and interests, the Cat Lady could easily be considered as a game that's offensive to women.

It's about a woman, that's portrayed as a flawed, weak, alone, worthless, loser. And she's committing suicide. So the Cat Lady is telling the story of a woman, that if she fails to find a man and be succesful in her career, is deemed a failure and should off herself. Cause that's the impression it gives you, it tells the story of a worthless woman that goes crazy cause her life is a dead-end.

Or..

It's one of the greatest games I've had the pleasure of playing, I wish I could right away spoil the entire story of it, if that wouldn't destroy the experience that's ahead of you, for Susan's story (the protagonist) is one where she fights for the right to die. And besides the weird setting, and the pseudo-horror tricks that go along with a horror game, the depth of this game is miraculous.

So, the sole reason you find Hatred offensive is because all it is offering is violence. Have you not played a game that just does that? Have you not played Doom? Or any FPS. Have you not played Duke Nukem. IT'S A VIDEOGAME. It's supposed to be fun/entertaining, and the definition of that is limitless, it should be. And if Hatred is violent, isn't HOTLINE MIAMI?

NOW I'M HUNGRY AS FUCK, THANKS GUYS!

Merry Poppins to you too, Arj0n

I've seen more violent games than Hatred to be honest and way more graphical. So Hatred is only but a grapple to something else. You can't walk around saying how everything is offensive. If something is insulting you there are other ways to avoid this. For example personally I'm annoyed by Michael Bay's movies, do you see me using my resources to boycott them? Cause if a game being violent enough is a reason, then destroying my childhood and a franchise by projecting an entirely different project is way more important in my book. I said ""Just allow people consume stuff like A Serbian Film, if they are to find entertainment in such things". This is based on the exact same principle that there are things we like as human beings that sometimes do not coincide with the public opinion, imagine if the public opinion deprived you of the chance to be the minority in these cases.

To be honest, why is the topic "THIS GAME IS SO VIOLENT?" back, haven't we've been through this before? Why are you denying entertainment by censoring games such as these, oh gaming community? If someone is to find bliss and fun in playing the equivalent of Serbian Film, he should have such a right. You can judge all you want, but taking away the game because YOU don't like it or find it offensive is silly, we've lost the point. Btw GTA V is family friendly.

["UNTIL I HAVE YOU"]

For those who follow me on twitter, they've seen several screenshots over the couple of days, but here's one that showcases that the game exists.



I'm working on this with Andrea Ferrara also known as the female sensation of 2014, AprilSkies. We've both agreed that we will not delivered a half-assed game, so if anything if we don't make it, it's because the amount of polish wasn't as good as we wanted to. Now, chances are by Xmas we wrap this thing up and then test for a while. But this potentially a bigger project, one I'm willing to spend time working with the light system as well, showcased at AdventureX. Oh, and we have Dave Seaman on SFX.

Oh, and this is poetically named "UNTIL I HAVE YOU".

Looks pretty pretty, dare I say. The color palette is so smooth in my eyes. Keep us posted.

Alright then, well, wonderful interesting entries, this month seems a bit slow. Congratulations to Le Woltaire, his entry reminds me a bit of the Cowboy Bebop song, which is a good thing, as for your song it starts a lot like a Sam N Max soundtrack. Anyhoo, again, congrats to LW, I pass the torch!

I've begun work on something, chances of finishing, dim. We'll see.

Well, I've reached 19k on Primordia, and I ended up splitting some sections of it into modules, for my benefit. I think in H2G2 i reached 40k. It doesn't matter how much code there is there. Modularizing it helps indexing it and finding certain functions/variables/whatever easier. It's like for example having the entire tween module on global script instead of it being a module script separated into a script and a header, it won't delay the game, it will just make more of a mess of a code for you to read.

Hey babe, i'm gonna stalk you so hard! Wonderful to see you pumped <3.

Super question will there be a chance to parse through a big array (repeatedly) without having fps drops?

The same issue has been reported with primordia as well. It has been around forever, i can find you posts where i reported it and everyone just nodded and did nothing.

cassiebg, you background reminds me of the Brazil (1985) opening shot.

Congratulations on releasing this!
