FINALLY, I’M IN A DATING SIM

Fangamer put together for Valentines Day a free dating sim game starring everyone who works for Fangamer.  Enter Suite 33 and find your true love by worming your way through their psyche, and I guess for me, reminding me of things that I am horribly ashamed of.

Rest in peace.

Play Sweet 33 today!  And listen to the podcast we just did on dating sim games, while you’re at it.

Kazumi Totaka - 12 AM (New Leaf)

oh my god, this is the first time I’ve heard the music of New Leaf.  I am filled with such hope that this will be a great game.  It’s already so much better than Wild World’s soundtrack.  I’m in love.  I’m more excited for this game than I ever have been.

The music of this game was easily the most anticipated aspect of it for me.  To hear this one hour alone, I’m faithful that it will be a proper return to form.  Just the fact that the instrumentation is varied and not just the two same instruments repeated as Wild World’s was, it just fills me with so much hope and assurance.  This even feels more emotional and heartfelt than some of the songs in the original game.

I owe Kazumi Totaka so much, for me even wanting to be a games composer to begin with.  I feel like the proper way to consume this soundtrack would be to wait until I have the game in my hands and I’m playing for the first time, absorbing every aspect of it, and having the music accentuate the emotions I’m feeling, as a great game soundtrack is supposed to.  I don’t know if I can wait that long.  But if I can manage to wait, I have the utmost faith that I’ll be blown away.  But for now, 12 AM is heavenly, and the best sign of a wonderful soundtrack that will inspire and teach me, and stick with me for life.

TRUE LOVE WAITS.

I think you can tell I’m a bit drunk in this.  I’m a bit more energetic? (& Ben said I’m a  bit slurry) idk.

Alsooooo, I didn’t mention because I was drunk? so I guess my thought process was everywhere, but the point of Super Metroid and having happy memories, that’s inspirational because it’s the reason why I wanted to go into game development.  I wanted to help make games, because video games were the happiest moments in my life growing up! It was one of the rare times my family would get together and be happy you know? or same with friends. I get super happy playing games with friends.  Like, videogames are entertainment, but I feel there’s more to them.  I wanted to be part of making something that could possibly invoke the same feeling in others, by helping them possibly create as fond memories, or just feeling something. So, that’s why that inspired me as well. (｡╯ᴗ╰)〜

Rebluggin this from Grace because her words are really sweet and you should read ‘em.

headsuphotdogs: I guess that dog gettin’ eaten… Hey!!! It’s been a while since we’ve given you guys any info about the status of Heads Up! Hot Dogs. What is it? Where is it? When is it?! Well, don’t worry. We’re hard at work jam packing the game with as much content as we can. We’ve got a ton of new levels, new characters, and new obstacles, with even more on the way. We’ve also got Luke and Ben working on some new tracks to back it all up. Holy, you guys. We’re so glad that you’ve stuck with us. The release is still a bit off, but we’ll be giving you more updates as we draw ever closer. In the meantime, let us know if you have any questions using the ask button in the side bar. Keep on chompin’! So pumped to jam it up and have everyone play this soon.  I just want everyone to grump dudes with dogs already.
