I actually bought ultrakill but now I have an even bigger respect for the chad that is Hakita
Ok. And?
People in the future will be like:
“Pokémon? There’s radio silence after the 3DS games. I think that Nintendo closed down by then.”
“Ah, Ultrakill? Here. [points to some file in the repo] Still playable. Small dev from a brilliant indie scene.”
I’m being kind of cheeky; it’s reasonably possible that people in the future know that Nintendo games actually existed past the 3DS, they simply weren’t preserved because their corporation got too greedy. In the meantime, game devs like Hakita are keeping their legacy alive.
Gen7 was nice tho it could just be nostalgia on my end.
The ultra gen 7 sucked tho
Internet needed to beat the game was an awful fucking idea
@lvxferre @sleepybisexual Gen IV was when the real power creep started to happen.
Well, this one is moving up on my steam wishlist.
With proton it runs like a charm for those who have Linux also!
Everyone working on Ultrakill is fucking amazing. You got a mix of trans artists who got into work with Ultrakill through gay hentai they drew of the game, a voice actor who posts memes on YT, and the main dev (Hakita, featured here) is a bi anti capitalist icon.
I love the fact that he does not only speak of gaming piracy, but of general piracy in general. He talks about culture, and it’s true, lack of culture is used to control the masses
It resembles the efforts of Archive.org and other culture-preservation driven websites/projects.
Internet is (or should be) our Library of Alexandria, where everyone is welcome —no matter their country, believes or financial situation— and have a feist on culture and knowledge like none other and for free. Games, art, books, cinema, Lemmy-like forums. You name it.
