Ulysses 31 (TV, 1981-1982).

Jean Chalopin: "We were told that if we wanted to sell something in France, we needed a cultural alibi. We wanted to do science fiction because it was up to date. I'm not sure how Ulysses got into the discussions anymore, but one thing was said: in Homer's time..."

Detective Instinct is on launch discount for 5 more days! This weekend would be a great time to give it a try 👀

See why critics are saying it "punches above its weight in almost every single way" and is "a standout for fans of narrative-driven adventures." On Steam and Switch!

Before I begin visually designing a cast of characters for my indie games I like to 'fantasy cast' them.

Yeah! We do this for each character, then base the character design on a mashup of our favourites. It's really fun to pretend you are actually going to get Nick Offerman to do one of your roles!

We lost a legend today. Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa played Shang Tsung in the 1995 Mortal Kombat film and sadly passed away at age 75. We had the privilege of his portrayal on the first MK film but also as an amazing voice actor in the Mortal Kombat 11 game.
