The odd news is true, India's "largest game services provider" Gameshastra, has signed on to develop an Etch A Sketch game. At the least, this will not be a full game but an XBLA title, still, the mind ponders what the hell were they thinking, what will be the goals in the game, what are the options, multiplayer, achievements?
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
To celebrate Tomb Raider: Legend's 20th anniversary, the official channels have shared an early in-development gameplay demo.
The one where you have to draw the food to stuff the bunny. They could have you try to draw certain objects in certain timeframes.
Am I the only person in the world who is fascinated by these master Etch -A-Sketch artists? Simply amazing! To paint Bob Ross is great but to paint his happy little trees also is unbelievable.
This is a strange XBLA addition. Interested to see how it plays out.
I love to see this kind of stuff make it's way on to XBLA and PSN. I think that the arcade on consoles has really given new life to independent developers. Often times you find that these independent developers are far more creative and talented than the major ones, but they just don't have the funds to make the big games.
CREATIVITY and INGENUITY FTW!
I have a feeling this game could be curiously fun. I agree with you Lyberator, acheivements will be interesting.
