Troonslop "Retro" Games / Demake games / PS1 Trannies / ULTRAKILL / Y2K trannies - Retro gaming is infected

[Snake of Diamond]

To explore any of those things, you have to think, question things, and be smart enough to draw your own nuanced conclusions and allow the player to do the same.

These are a bunch of men hopped up on their own hugbox farts who know they're always on the side of queer goodness. They never question their xisters, only the constructs of the outside world that isn't part of their cult. They are also fucking stupid and it shows best in their writing.

They also seem to actively choose to do more black and white narratives, more silly narratives, and that wouldn't be bad if it was written by someone who could actually tell a joke or wasn't connected to a more serious world like the mods. Their more series stories seem to fall flat due to all the irony poisoning they put in.

It is generally what tends to happen with weak minded peolpe who don't actually analyze anything logically. They only fall for emotions which is the game folks nowadays always play when they claim something is this or that phobic, bigoted, sexist, racist, etc. It became a problem because now there is no nuance to story telling or even concepts that can make interesting stories. We have examples in this thread of how every story about their gender politics or something like Capitalism as examples comes with the same exact message because the peolpe that are making this stories can't think outside of black or white they have watered down the actual discussion.

Bulid engine -> Godot/Unity engine
I doubt troon niggers would bother themselves using old engines like Build, Doom engine, early UE and so on

 

[True Boss of this Gym]

Doom engine

I'm so sorry this is how you had to find out they indeed use it.

 

[wtfNeedSignUp]

Bulid engine -> Godot/Unity engine
I doubt troon niggers would bother themselves using old software like Build, Doom, early UE etc.

At least with Shooters it seems to be a badge of honour to use the engine, though from my understanding it's just building over a modded version of the engine that already did most of the groundswork. The goal is to have a person exclaiming "this is on the same engine as Doom".

Godot I'd agree is a troon engine, but more relegated to platforming. While Unity is just the easy option.

Do any newer games besides Ion Fury use Build? GZDoom seems way more common.

 

[Rembrandt]

I just don't think that amount of effort put into a game correlates with sales. So if you want to make a game, you should release it as quickly as possible, cause the situation on the market is bad and is gonna get even worse.

I feel like Gianni Whatshisnuts should be somewhere there since he seems like the go-to faggot voice actor who's mostly known for voicing unfunny memes on his channel and one of the characters from Ultratroon.
If that's too specific, then just have "YouTube Voice Actor" as an all encompassing term.

I think Shovel Knight, like a lot of those "hit games" got overhyped either via ad campaigns or Youtuber involvement. Because I can clearly see the developers of the two games you provided as examples spent that time working, while the Shovel Knight dev started pushing his brap to the masses (You know, Undertale also has a similar story of gaining traction, although more complicated);

How Shovel Knight got so popular so quickly can be owed to a lot of factors that boil down to "Right place, right time." For example:

1. The game was being made by ex-WayForward developers, as well as internet-famous chiptune/remix artist Jake "Virt" Kaufman. Much like how Toby already had Homestuck and Earthbound fans on his side, Yacht Club already had an audience they were familiar with thanks to their work at WF, and vice versa.
2. Yacht Club struck the Kickstarter iron when it was arguably at its hottest. Riding the initial wave of Kickstarter games like Mighty no. 9, Shantae: Half-Genie Hero, and of course, Undertale.
3. Yacht Club went out of their way to ensure Shovel Knight looked, played, and sounded like a late era (1989-1994) NES game, with some creative liberties taken. The extra attention to detail helped elevate it above its contemporaries.
4. It was a Mega Man-like during that period where Capcom didn't want to do anything with the IP, while doing enough to stand on its own compared to other 8-bit run'n'gun platformers.
5. Yacht Club made sure to have the game available on Nintendo hardware day 1. That may not seem like a big deal because revisionist history states "No one bought a Wii U", but given Nintendo fans were desperate for new games to play on their hardware on choice, it made Shovel Knight a bigger deal back then.
6. The Smash Bros. Fighter Ballot happened not long after the game's release. If the game's critical acclaim from retro game fans and YouTubers weren't enough to solidify the game's popularity, this (and the general want from fans to see an "indie rep" in Smash) did.

Shovel Knight, to me, also marks the point at which the ideal 8-bit indie platformer was created. This meant the the rest of the indie scene felt they couldn't compete, and so moved on to aping other eras of gaming or other genres, especially once Toby released Undertale.

So, any of these games is any good? I see people talking about the New Blood stuff, but I liked Dusk a lot

Actually it was entirely this video

Curious what you guys think of this. Max Krieger (the Crossniq guy) is doing what he calls "aesthetic livestreams", which are gaming livestreams, but aesthetic. He dumps a lot of info behind the why and how in the video above.

 

[DeSean 3 Strikeland]

not sure if this would apply but "Chambers" has just released into early access,it has that troonslop graphical style i guess


(link) (archive)

Spoiler: A bunch of images from the steam page

I played the demo for this and it isnt terrible just kind of jank



This appears to be the lead dev, "mrpinkdev" on his xitter (archive) he follows mostly vtubers and other indie game devs,

Spoiler: notable fags he follows

As we can see he follows everyones favorite group of fags at New Blood! Another strange thing is that he follows these fags while ALSO following Tucker Carlson, Elon ,and Trump




That photo above is from this youtube video (archive)

as we can see he appears to be russian,the title in english is "DA NEIL - WHAT HAPPENED IN A YEAR IN THE LIFE OF AN INDIE DEVELOPER"

EDIT: corrected spelling mistake

Cruelty squad is such overrated hipster crap that runs like shit despite looking like shit.

Cruelty squad is such overrated hipster crap that runs like shit despite looking like shit.

In what way? I (and others more than likely) haven't played it so I don't know how you could make something that is meant to be y2k graphics run like Garten of Banban.

 

[BlueCandles]

Shovel knight got so annoying in the early 2010s because that blue fucker seemed to show up in pretty much every indie game ever as a cameo, and the game would be like ‘wow is that shovel knight from the hit indie game shovel knight?!?!? What are you doing here shovel knight?!!’

Not exactly a troonslop game, but a troonslop graphic designer... and of a predictable kind of 'autistic identity, breakcore, cyberslop' troon
This specimen came to my mind because Bungie's Marathon apparently put his work in the game without permission.

https://www.vice.com/en/article/bungie-accused-of-plagiarizing-yet-again-marathon-seemingly-lifts-assets-from-an-artists-original-work-without-their-knowledge/

I have always liked this kind of The Designers Republic, 90s-2000s artstyle, but it seems like any modern artists who tried to ape it today seem to do it in such uninspired way. This graphic style also still has 'real holdovers' from the era (because it persisted in popularity to early 2010s!) who are just normal, non-terminally graphic designers, so to make a revivalism of the style is a bit silly. Though I would admit that Antireal's works are probably 'better than most of the bunch', It feels a little more original than most of the Y2K slops.

Antilreal was apparently called Ben Hook, then at one point changed the name to Fern Hook. I don't think he's particularly too cow-y. But a self-identified autist troon who are into breakcore and DnB is a uniform at this point and it's a cow adjacent aesthetic.

Most of Kiwis would disagree with me (Kiwi position is that 'they are autists, that's why they trooned ouut'), but I personally think that autism as a diagnosis on itself has become too broad to be meaningful, it's just a behavioural checklist, not something that actually exist in people's brain as a one platonic thing, and many of the 'autistic behaviours' can be changed and not necessarily a fundamental problem to someone's brain. Especially for anything 'high functioning', It's a cash cow for overworking and neurotic parents who wanted quick answer for misbehaving children and people who wants whatever excuses for their problems. Now we're left with a generation of people who who were intially told that they cannot change their maladaptions and they'll forever be untermensch-by-science because they cried at school at 5. Then neurodiversity came in only to enable grift and salved these people by telling them they are special and oppressed, while allowing their dysfunction to continue. (without making them believe that they can change themselves).

I was going to hate Bungie at first for stealing work fully at first, but knowing who's behind it I don't feel as bad anymore
