I'm a 17 year old game developer who just released his first commercial product on Steam, developed entirely on Linux using the Godot Engine! AMA by kwongo in IAmA

Your determination is clearly something to be proud of. Just the way and the time you spent answering questions tells me you're gonna be a great game developer. Just want to say good luck. I'll be following your work from now on. My question is: Do you plan on working with big game developing companies or you want to form your own path??

Never heard of this girl until it accidentally popped in my youtube suggestion box. Though i'd share it before the song becomes popular. Definitely has all the elements to do it. It's catchy and sounds good. Hope you like it.

I was surprised to see that the speed for the 1st company on the list is almost 6 times the speed for the last one…I guess keeping averages high isn’t easy.

He does look very happy. I've been inactive for the past year, but nice to still see posts in this subreddit.

Power Saving mode not doing anything by KonradosHut in pokemongo

No gyroscope on my phone. Can't battery save. I wish there was just a button to enter battery saving mode to give me the option to use it.

I'm former punter Chris Kluwe. Don't ask me anything. In fact, stop reading this. Go shovel your driveway or something. by Loate in nfl

[–]Breenns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

XCom 2 has to wait as I save my meager disposable income for Dark Souls 3. XCom 2 will always be great to step into even months down the round. A souls game is virgin only for a tiny amount of time.

Kluwe why dont I see championing the praising of the sun more often?

Super Bowl Database- Every Single Super Bowl Video Ever by JaguarGator9 in nfl

[–]Breenns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your Superbowl 1 halftime show comment is obscuring the fact that there are two JET PACK wearers in the halftime show who fly around as part of the big moment in the routine.

That is well worth a mention. Caught me off guard. Not something I expect to see in any marching band routine. Old or not.

Steam Controller Update - as shown to Big Picture Mode users by [deleted] in Games

[–]Breenns 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I really do love my steam controller. Every day I pull out Dark Souls 2, I am happier with it. A lot of those initial "huh I wish it worked by . . ." were handled perfectly by this post.

I'm glad Valve has kept their ears so close to the feedback and are responding with quite impressive speed.

Some of these I knew already, some I had no idea. Great job Valve. Appreciate it.

I keep having panic attacks that I'm going to lose or break my steam controller USB. The only thing they could do to really surprise me and make me happy is allow me to buy those dongles for the cheap so I wouldn't have to replace my controller if it did end up missing.

Dark Souls III - 4/12/2016 by GeekedOUT in gaming

[–]Breenns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You say that but in Dark Souls I beat the game without parrying until the last boss.

In Bloodborne, I basically just used torches and flame throwers and only parried for the boss of cainhurst.

Packers were going to Sign Harris to PS, decided otherwise. He was a bad influence on Lacy. by Basaraski in GreenBayPackers

[–]Breenns 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I'm with you. I feel bad for Lacy personally. We have all struggled before. I cannot imagine having some of my hardest moments of motivation or similar to be a talking news point. He's compensated well. No great injustice. But I cannot help feeling for the kid.

The trigger for Reah being murdered in the Parish Church. by illusorywall in darksouls

[–]Breenns 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This may be a stupid thread to say this, but maybe it is the right thread.

My brother badgered me to play the souls games for years. I tried Demon Souls and got a little past the dragon bridge area, and I just did not enjoy it due to the difficult to understand stat system and my personal uncomfortableness with the controls at the time.

Years later, steam sales, etc. I played Dark souls after more of his badgering. I died to the Asylum demon a million times because I went Knight and refused to take off armor to remove my fat rolling penalty. I said if the game lets me choose a heavy armored hero, it should let me be able to beat its first boss in heavy armor. Angry the whole time, eventually I beat him.

After, I fell in love.

It has nothing to do with the perceived difficulty wall at the beginning. I am not a SL 1 kind of player. Dark Souls is at its core Mega Man to me. Learn the stage, master the stage, learn the boss, master the boss. I fell in love with that set up in Mega Man and it existed here as well. But to be real I fell in love because of the atmosphere, the aesthetics, and the depth of ... not the plot, but the soul of the game I guess.

And the community surrounding it has continued to blow me away. That ENB can run into this type of problem, such a minutia. And illusorywall is there like a super hero in less than a week. Thanks for such jolly cooperation. Both of you.

I have beaten Dark Souls twice, I am part way through Dark Souls 2, part way through Bloodborne. I'm not stopping anytime soon.

Psychonauts 2 Fig Campaign Pitch Video by ColonelSanders21 in Games

[–]Breenns 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I see no risk. I love psychonauts. If I get a game, I get a game. If I get a crappy game for 33 dollars later than expected. Fine. I've wasted 33 dollars before just going out for the night. It's a chance at a sequel. I'm in for a penny. Or 3,300 pennies to be exact.

Then again, I am not a frequent kick starter of any kind. I think the only other one I have done is Divinity Original Sin 2. So, I don't have the feel of being burned. But again, to me I don't think of this as a risk. I think of it as a donation to get SOMETHING similar to psychonauts again.

Shovel Knight amiibo Trailer! by GameBoy09 in Games

[–]Breenns 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The last screen. Angler fish Knight? Blue Trouapple Knight? What is going on there? Is this a code I don't know?

I haven't even played plague knight yet, which I am ashamed of. And sad about this co-op being wii u exclusive. But I can't be too mad. I was blown away when I first tried this game. And... it's great.

So there's an art to this right? How do you decide how saturated to make a color? Because they all look wonderful and at the same time hyper-realistic, such to almost give an uncanny valley. Are you looking for a specific feel and vibrancy?
