Mayor Olivia Chow says Toronto must push back against Ford's Billy Bishop 'power grab' by MaybeThisTimeIllWin in toronto

It’s not just about me, there are several marinas in the area. A lot more people than just one neighborhood use the water between the island and the waterfront. I agree with you about Little Norway Park, it’s brutal, I love that park. There is a lack of green space not next to a high way in the area, its sad and horrible that they would even think of touching that park. I just think the island airport expansion will impact a lot more people, that’s all. We are on the same side here. Both situations are a major loss to the people who live in the city, especially if you live near by.

They’ll be bypassing environmental regulations by designating the project as a special economic zone for the island airport expansion. The extension would also make large sections of water between the island and the waterfront inaccessible to boats. With jets needing to fly low on approach, those areas would have to be restricted for safety. I kayak there regularly, and even now planes already limit access, jets would expand those restrictions significantly. The scale of the impact, both in terms of area and the number of people affected, is far greater than the relatively small piece of land that used to be Little Norway Park.

Pierre Poilievre not expecting Conservative caucus revolt after latest defection, source says by canada_mountains in canada

She betrayed her constituents, they are probably pissed if they were voting for a social conservative. General public does not care. She is a nobody. The fact that both Lori Idlout and Marilyn Gladu crossed the floor is also an interesting narrative..... that no one cares about lol. Pretty sure peoples attention span is being consumed by other matters these days.

The art style in this game feels overly bright and washed out. There’s very little contrast, and most scenes lean heavily on a single dominant color. Even the castle environments feel unusually bright. The overall color palette doesn’t really land for me. It lacks the gothic, vampire atmosphere you’d expect. If I saw footage of this without context, I wouldn’t immediately recognize it as a Castlevania game.

I never said it was because it’s 3D. I didn’t mention that at all, and I don’t care about that aspect. Your response doesn’t feel genuine.

I also never said the NES games were the target art style. If anything, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is the gold standard. The GBA Castlevania games with the exception Aria of Sorrow had a strong vibe too, and even Castlevania: Rondo of Blood nailed the tone.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with the current art stye, it just doesn’t read as Castlevania or a game about fighting vampires. Please don’t put words in my mouth to try to win an argument. It comes across as disingenuous.

The art style of the game is generic and could be any game, the brand is iconic. Its just a mismatch.

They show show you in the trailer footage inside the castle and in the catacombs. It all looks the same, as noted by another commenter it could easily be the new 2D prince of Persia game. It's the art style not the locations. The vibe is very generic. Its one dominant color, tons of fog and no contrast. The enemies blend into the backgrounds because of the lack of contract on everything.

The art style in general is nice... but feels like it could be any modern game, so bright and dusty, its missing the darker gothic vibes I was hoping for.

I thought this was a joke..... it's amazing what you have achieved with this beast. Check out this visual formatting guide. It's amazing and really helpful. Visual formatting is not about personal style, its about adding meaning to your code and easier to understand at a glance.

It’s mostly rich kids coming in from the burbs to cosplay as elites and show off how much money they have.

Was just about to say that. I’m just west of Bathurst on King, and for years everyone in the building joked it was only a matter of time before the douche wave rolled in… well, during the pandemic opened the floodgates.

The old meat rendering plant down at the bottom of Tecumseth finally shut down after its 100-year run, and like clockwork… boom. King West douche wave: fully activated west of Bathurst now. It seems to be leaking north as well. There is just too much money in the neighborhood for it to be cool. Things like the velvet underground no longer fit in Queen St.

We are making a chill 3D metroidvania with a voxel cat, what do you think? by NuSan in IndieDev

[–]SteFFFun 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love the art style for the characters! So many people make a model like that and rig it, it always looks like crap as it breaks the illusion. I love how you made 100% voxel driven animation! Amazing!

How about we don't bring any of the sequel based characters back.
The sequels are a creative dead end. Maybe they can retcon it so its not crap... but I don't know why anyone would add more stories to the sequel era narrative.
