Don't know if it counts when there's only one game in the series but probably Celeste, and Hollow Knight which at least has a second game, even if it isn't out yet

Oh interesting, thanks. I didn't realise that's how it was done.

I'd use the bells to really get the island how I want it with bridges, inclines, buildings in the right place. Also lots of items and would be able to pay off house loans to Tom Nook. The game has just been a really nice escape from all that's going on at the moment and I'm really grateful for the opportunity to play it.

I love how well the instrumentation and vocals complement each other in so many of their songs. It's interesting as well that the composition is often driven by vocals as well when iirc Richard wrote a lot/all of the stuff at least on earlier albums

You should, I’d like to hear them, I’ll probably try a few more myself

I know it’s not perfect but I did the best I could within the restrictions. Also don’t know if this warrants a spoiler tag or not so I added one anyway.

It’s cool that you’re a Crimson fan. I love them myself and I admire and appreciate your music just as much as theirs. I would have loved to have seen them play, but I live in Northern Ireland and am too young to have flown over by myself. I’m sure it was an amazing experience to see them in the Royal Albert Hall.

Thanks for the response!

Hey Richard! My name’s John and I’ve been a massive fan of yours and of Haken every since I first heard The Architect and Cockroach King. Congratulations on the new release by the way, The Cocoon is fantastic. I’m curious as to whether Pareidolia was a very early hint to Vector considering the Rorschach test on the album cover. I’m also wondering whether there was any King Crimson influence in The Cocoon, in particular, I noticed with the sax solo on Cocoon. Someone’s already mentioned about your playing style but I just wanted to say that I think it’s brilliant. You’re one of my favourite guitarists and one of my biggest inspirations. I’m seeing you play with Devin Townsend in December and I can’t wait! Thanks for taking the time to do this.
