Read the comic at www.octopuspie.com UPDATE - FAQ: The music track is "Atlas" by Battles. This footage is sped up from apprx. 4 hours (though along with brainstorming and initial thumbnails, it took closer to 6). I'm drawing the strip in Manga Studio. This one's a bit slower than my last video.

    Just beat Perfect Tides, such an intense and beautiful experience. I related to Mara so deeply; in my teen years, I too was a dedicated denizen of fanfiction forums, half living on the internet and half in "real life". Trying to discern what the people I'd never met from the internet meant to me, how I felt so close to them. Playing Perfect Tides was incredibly nostalgic in that respect, revisiting that chapter of my life, going through the same cognitive dissonance that Mara experienced. I'm especially excited that it takes place in my hometown of NYC! In 2003 I was 16 (Mara's age) and going through exactly what she went through in the first game, wandering around Manhattan and Brooklyn trying to figure things out. I can't wait to play this.

    Such a great developer playthrough, thank you! I adored the game of course, you did a beautiful job of adding so much content & context. How much was autobiographical-esque was super interesting - the STaggle poem being from you when you were 16 is the rawest thing ever in a game, to teleport that forward through time is amazing. And loved the development notes, the constraints of how production limitations shaped design (like how timing music to animations was hard because you had to develop them in parallel) is always fascinating. I really appreciate you putting this out there!

      Just finished the game, great game, think i got the bad ending tough , since from what I have gathered from looking a little small bit of this walktrough there seems to be different things that can happend. Witch poem do you mean ,the one at the end with Staggle?

    • @CommissarYarric9
      @CommissarYarric9 Рік тому

      @@XTORD1 Ah this one would be ending-independent, and is from the fist half of the game; its when Mara is 'dating' Staggle and he writes her a physical letter which includes a poem he wrote for Mara. That poem is one Meredith Gran actually wrote as a teenager for someone online, which she re-used in the game.

    I love adventure games depicting normal life. Like Life Is Strange Before The Storm, without the superpowers nonsense. While the genre is strong these days, such theme is still too rare. Another thing I greatly appreciate about what's seen in this video is that all pixels on screen are the same size, which is crucial for artistic consistency for fans of chunky pixels.
