    The first game is why I'm going to college to learn programming, and is also why I started work on my own FPS. I don't have much in it yet, but you can look down and see your body. From a mechanical perspective though, it's likely to end up as a mix of Guncaster, Spiderbot, Halo, and Armored Core- progression like Spiderbot, moment-to-moment gameplay like the others. I'm not sure, I injured myself and had to temporarily stop development, so I have working movement, enemy sprites, and a few testing levels, but that's about it.

      There's a pretty blatant current in modern online social spaces where Japanese media is seen as particularly objectifying and exploitative, meanwhile american media can do the exact same thing and get celebrated by the same people who condemn anime fan service. And they're literally willing to put it into words for you, I remember a non-zero number of popular posts around the release of the latest Baldur's gate that were openly saying "this is cool and good, unlike something those degenerate Japanese would make"
      Combine that with this games (In my opinion *extremely* blatant based on how the expressions are done) guro stuff, obviously people with unexamined prejudices and prudishness will pour out of the woodwork like a tsunami of termites.
      Guro is *really* not my thing, it actually disgusts me and will haunt me for weeks of I stumble on it unexpectedly, but also like, there's nothing really wrong with it. It's weird gross art made for someone other than me.

    you can actully remove the helmet the character wears by pressing back space it removes all heads up display details so its a nice lil touch for a no hud challange run where checking if your weapon has ammo is more viable~

    This game has a really weird vibe, it's very interesting, looks like a lost ps1 experimental game. I recently started playing Baroque (ps1 on my handheld) and it immediately reminded me of it. I already bought the first one some time ago but never got around to it, thanks for reminding me. Also seeing the rifle bullets land at the wall and fall down is such a nice touch for a sprite based game.

    • @kenpe8295
      @kenpe8295 3 місяці тому +5

      Yeah, the dev likes baroque. The weapon shown at 11:09 is called the "Angelic Rifle", and the character who gives it to you quotes the same line as the character who gives you the rifle in Baroque.

    Excellent news, I played through the first game twice (which is not something I often do). The atmosphere of the first part of the game is absolutely anxiogenic. Any shooter that can make using a flamethrower feel like commiting an actual war crime is good in my book. Also the FEAR influence is just perfect and I wish more games did it (can't wait for Selaco as well).

    Frankly, I wish more shooters had the balls to be like Reciever. It's just strange to me that everyone seems to think "point and click" is the pinnacle of what the FPS can offer the user, and most of them spend as much time as possible trying to make that part of the experience take the least effort. Reciever has it's flaws, but it's able to build up a good tension and excitement simply because you can fuck it up. Pulling off a slick, flawless reload before taking down an attacking drone is something I remember far more vividly then kill x+1. Hell, I may dislike Hideous Destructor but I get the appeal: what if shooting was more complex than "you have functionally infinite ammo, go nuts."
    It's too back it's anime as dicks, but that is the type of feature that could take up the slack.

Not only does it have amazing atmosphere but there are certain details in the game that aren't neccessary as but really adds to the feel like being able to play the game without your helmet on, hold your breath for steady aim, interact with spent bullet casings, leaning left and right, OPERATING A FUCKING MECH, etc.

    Honestly more first person games need to give you the ability to see your body/legs/feet when you look down, horny or not. I like the immersion over missing something on the ground directly below me. I have seen games also make it a toggle option as well so you can just turn it on or off, doesn't seem like it would be that hard to implement either. I would go so far as to say people that do not like it are jealous because they do not see their feet when they look down.
