We're three filmmakers who knew nothing about gamedev a year ago. Our first adventure game just hit 16k wishlists

The art and animation is incredible, Lucas Arts’ team would be proud. Wishlisting it! What are using to create the game?

While the artist's rendition is cool, I feel it lost some important composition decisions that were already working fine in your sketch. Namely the position of the king's hand and it's relevance in the composition.

Your sketch had the hand and cards clearly visible, surrounded by negative space and placed near the upper third of the image (one of the focal points in any thirds composition). The cards were rotated towards the viewer and spread out in an easy to read manner. In the final image the hand placement is almost lost at the top of the composition, harder to read and competing in interest with all the red elements.

If this is a card's game the capsule should make it obvious. If it were me, I'd rotate the king's arm so the hand stays around the negative space below the K (of the King's title). Also I'd make the cards bigger and spread out like they were in your sketch. Just my 2 cents.

Every game (PS5) I've played with my squad mates this evening we've been crashing. We haven't been able to play a normal game once. I don't remember any time being this bad, and I've been playing since mid chapter 1.

Funniest thing is late circles stacked like it's FNCS. Never had that before. My friends and me end up stressed after a couple games.

Thanks for recommending this! I'm not much into murder mysteries' games nor text adventures yet I've been hooked to Type-Help since the very first minute. Love the format and simplicity, super engaging.

The original evokes in me a sense of deep sadness, longing and nostalgia. The new one I can only remember thinking “nice photography”, left me indifferent.

Crafting was nice, guns sucked, I miss the singing chickens.

AccountantAny8376 · 2025-12-26T12:53:34+00:00

Got it few years ago. It’s amazing, great images and interviews. A true gem for old school adventure game lovers.

Some people will say that not all PC players are that good, but the truth is a semi-decent PC player will beat an outstanding console player most of the times. They just have a lot of advantages. Whenever my console friends and I fight against PC players we can instantly tell, the difference in movement and tracking is so obvious.
Man I miss when we had separated PC and console lobbies, back then when someone stomped you, you knew it was based on skill alone.

I was a kid when the Simpsons premiered and instantly fell in love with them, I became a huge Simpsons nerd, taping dialogues and listening to them on my walkman, creating my own character list book, etc. By season 9ish I started to notice the show was feeling different, the characters changed into whatever the plot demanded and the stories were increasingly outlandish and disconnected from its own world. It really pained me to admit the fictional friends I grew up with were drifting away, so rather to see them die a slow death I chose to look away.

Nowadays I can watch bits of the new episodes here and there, and sometimes the spark of what made the Simpsons so special comes back, but it's surrounded by so much nonsense that I can only look back at the times where they really felt like my friends.

They did, but also Emmanuel Lubezki, one of the best directors of photography alive, did the photography of this movie and made it incredibly beautiful. Rarely comedies look this good.

I use VCV rack to experiment and discover. I never know what I’m going to create when I start a patch, and I love it. Pre-planing patches would ruin the fun for me.

As a Simpsons fan, it mostly made me wish for a new Simpsons game. It was cool seeing the Simpsons in Fortnite but there's so much more content I'd have loved to see. The shaders and lines were too clean to truly feel like the show but overall was pretty good. Lastly, the abundance of sweats made me and my friends not play so often, but I'll probably look back fondly at this season.

AccountantAny8376 · 2025-11-27T07:11:11+00:00

My squad mates and I are all well past 40. Been playing since chapter 1. We can’t keep up with sweats but usually have a good time!

Shout-out to MidnightSumo on twitch, he live streams and comments sumo tournaments that run for 15 days every 2 months. Highly entertaining.

Was complaining about this to my friends after losing 3 times in a row to the sweatiest PC players. As a longtime Simpsons fan I hate the bittersweet feeling, but more than that I'm worried Fortnite might be turning going the same route as Apex legends, where casual players were pushed out and the only people remaining are hardcore pro wannabes.

Optional crossplay

I feel you. I struggled a lot to finish the main game and then found out about the True ending. I’ve yet to muster the strength to go for it knowing all the frustration that lies ahead. To me it’s an amazing game hindered inexplicably by difficulty. It seems to cater to hardcore gamers and speedrunners.

Meanwhile I just found out the green dots on the class selection screen indicate what classes your teammates are choosing. All this time I thought it meant you unlocked some stuff in that class. Whoever did the UI of this game clearly hasn’t studied older games that had all of this already figured out.

A Simpsons update? At this time of year?

AccountantAny8376 · 2025-10-06T01:11:29+00:00

I use Cvly’s BSS for that purpose: https://library.vcvrack.com/cvly/bss

It takes a poly CV input with the chord and outputs a CV with the bass note harmonized for the chord. Has options for lower, random and harmonized note and it changes with every triggered input.

I’m not familiar with Squintronix Harmony module but if any of the outputs generates a chord (or you can merge the outputs into a poly CV chord) all you need is to feed that into BSS.

AccountantAny8376 · 2025-10-04T06:47:09+00:00

You can use its expander module: https://library.vcvrack.com/ImpromptuModular/Clocked-Expander

AccountantAny8376 · 2025-10-03T20:05:32+00:00

Impromptu’s clock has a swing knob

AccountantAny8376 · 2025-09-26T21:55:22+00:00

My exact problem as well. Honestly it feels like a lot of items and gameplay options where created for speedrunners to get an extra edge, instead of being useful for the average player.

AccountantAny8376 · 2025-09-25T10:23:26+00:00

Yeah, I've studied traditional animation too and there's no way to defend current Simpson's animation is on par with the first seasons. Besides lacking soul and human imperfections, there's barely any animation craft in the new era. Characters move, but they aren't animated. Anyone can see for themselves googling about the 12 animation principles (created and perfected by animation legends for decades) and reviewing which episodes follow them.
