Apologies for how many more times I'm very likely to share this, it's just wild to me that it's actually _there_ and I'm still being a little geeky about it.

Star Spark

Developer: JoyFlow Games
Release Date: TBA

Surely this can’t be the first time someone’s had the sense to combine a Slay The Spire-style roguelite progression with old-school NES-like turn-based combat? Surely? But I’ve never seen it until now, in the excellent-looking Star Spark. And I want to be playing it already! The sprite art, the feisty animations, and the pumped up music are all on point.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:e7xmfdjzn4arhrm3mcj2nzp2/bafkreiexz6zphkymepk3nq7uooa52i4alunmfe5pus3whmi5fsifyfeb74@jpeg)

If we've learned anything from corporate grifts & failures, it's that the boy who pointed out that the emperor was naked would've been hanged before anyone admitted any wrongdoing.
The emperor would slowly begin wearing clothes again, claiming the old clothes just werent the right market fit.

Treasure Planet 2 (unproduced): The Centurion, art by Emil Mitev
It's all the more unfortunate that Treasure Planet didn't find its audience, as it was conceived as the beginning of a saga. A sequel was already in pre-production before being canceled a few days after the film's disastrous release.

we've a little disco elysium teaser dropping tomorrow, and the full series starts sometime next week. we'll have 5 episodes, each is currently around 40 mins. it's probably the project I've taken the most care with, given the impact of the game, and it's unique development story. i hope it's good!
