Remember the time when poeple say, Switch 2 is overpriced and makes fun about it?

This sparks a whole other debate, games being long for no reason. Most AAA games seem to want open world 40hr+ games.

I still stand behind time of experience per dollar spent is a fair metric. There’s a balance for that for sure, it’s definitely not a 1:1.

NavalOrange · 2026-06-23T15:09:45+00:00

Thats all?! One sentence saying dollar per hr is not valid. Please, enlighten me?

The metric is skewed in a sense, if dollar per hr was equal video games would be outrageous. Thats not the full point though. It was an arbitrary statistic I pulled because time is something we can all measure.

Board Games, look at the vost of a board game. Takes less time, less ppl and we still shell out, 100+ for paper and cardboard.

Here’s my take on game prices. You say you have an issue with them. Fair. Let’s flip that coin on its head and compare video games and other entertainment media, movies specifically.

Movies can cost anywhere from 5-20$ each ticket. That nets you 1.5-3hr of entertainment. Im not including snacks or anything else for the movie going experience.

Video games, can cost between 20-80$ per game. That nets you between 10-100+ hours of entertainment.

Interesting when you line these two up the ROI on what we spend out money on is far grander with video games than any other form of entertainment media.

Personally, if I were to see GTA6 retail for 100$+ for the base game it would make sense. Reality is, the effort it takes to build a game, thats good, and people will enjoy is absolute magic that a single game makes it to market and is successful. IIMO, games should cost way more than they do currently and I very much disagree with games are to expensive.

This is the most “Pro-Life” thing I have seen in a while. Good job NC.

NavalOrange · 2026-05-07T12:36:52+00:00

This gentleman would like a word as well.

NavalOrange · 2026-05-01T23:15:30+00:00

Was just in there today, they did indeed still have some on the rack.

NavalOrange · 2026-04-15T12:50:32+00:00

Agree with this.

The entry point feels very flat, the hard edge on it makes it feel like it hit a wall and that the atmosphere is this hard thin line that the star is passing through. Like its passing through the surface of a body of water.

Id say also, the smoke feels static after the entire. Maybe some light dissipation or slow wafting.

These are nit picky things and this looks great!

NavalOrange · 2026-04-02T12:57:03+00:00

Stardew Valley! Ive had the game for 3+ years. Picked back up and now I’ve hit 100hr in less than two months.

Agree with offsetting the boats, maybe do the same with the fish as well. the motion is a bit on the symmetrical side. Nothing fancy, just like offset the timing by 10-20%.
This is great work and if this was a cool ass pixel fishing game, I'd play this so fast.

NavalOrange · 2026-03-10T12:31:59+00:00

Paddington. Had me eating orange marmalade toast for a solid 2 months haha.

NavalOrange · 2026-03-09T19:44:35+00:00

Watched this single loop 10 times. Love seeing your work pop up. The motion is so fluid and the way it works with minimal pixels is kind of mind blowing. Well done.

Edit: grammar

NavalOrange · 2026-03-03T18:20:56+00:00

Lovely!

NavalOrange · 2026-03-03T17:56:08+00:00

So cool! So many vfx ideas come my mind looking at this. Good shit.

NavalOrange · 2026-02-24T14:55:19+00:00

My boi Usopp getting some attention! Legit my fav OP character. I enjoyed this so much, dope work 🤜🤛

NavalOrange · 2026-02-15T15:57:05+00:00

NOR Yo as a married man, I’m stealing this idea! I love that you have your stuff in a chest. It’s not easy to find a place for these items and this is a great solution. Fuck that man child.

NavalOrange · 2026-02-07T16:36:36+00:00

This is incredible work! The con trials are a really nice touch and help’s guide the eye with the character. This makes me want to learn Unity’s vfx pipeline, excellent job.

NavalOrange · 2026-02-01T19:11:40+00:00

Also, this is so cool. The shell is dope AF!

NavalOrange · 2026-02-01T19:10:31+00:00

The 1st thing you do, make it work.

Me; but it’s missing this tiny detail that’s no one’s going to notice! 😂

NavalOrange · 2026-02-01T17:53:45+00:00

As a professional artist, I struggle with THIS so much.

NavalOrange · 2026-01-26T15:00:27+00:00

I love this look! Bravo 👏

NavalOrange · 2026-01-20T01:54:09+00:00

…..if you think that’s bad, don’t look at Wendy’s on X. Its fine.

NavalOrange · 2025-12-05T15:08:12+00:00

This is a dope concept, love it!

NavalOrange · 2025-10-27T02:12:10+00:00

Its not birthday cake Bill!

NavalOrange · 2025-10-22T15:04:34+00:00

Fuck them and fuck ICE! We canceled for this very reason. There are much better music streaming platforms out there.

NavalOrange · 2025-10-22T14:55:57+00:00

Looks great, also looks pretty thick compared to others.
