CAP_H'S PROFILE

Happy birthday, My Luck

thanks, bud. I employed some major tricks to make it.

I agree that you can do both. Try to get your game featured on itch and that might help you to reach major outlets such as PC gamer and Rock Paper Shotgun. They both have a column on free games.
Both sites also have hidden gems on steam column. So, selling it on steam is a better idea than giving it there for free (I don't think you could publish it on steam with borrowed music neither for money not for free).

1. Wide Ocean Big Jacket
Really enjoyed this. It would be a great movie, but It is an even better game. The narration is subtle but not obscured, simple enough for everyone to understand and ordinary enough to relate to it. Visual choices add a lot too and bring it closer to literature than visual media. Ofc, music connects it all and it just makes the joy of outside life shine through. ​

(the game's from Turnfollow, my favourite devs, who created Little Party and other gems.


2. Kentucky Route Zero
I finally managed to find a day to play through all of it at once. It took me a lot of time and I found myself really sleepy when playing the last act. Also, it seemed to be little weaker than previous one. Especially in comparison with act 4 and all the action and experimental storytelling, this one felt almost like an older game and maybe little too sentimental at times. At the other side it gave me many options to lighten it up.

I think an update is the most important thing as some cotegories needcurration. Ofc I mean already widely discussed Kentona's Award. It shouldn't be a free award for game of the year and making it staff picks or a hidden gem award is a great idea.

Personally, I would stick with Lawsuit as can games are a big part of the hobbyist nature of the community. Maybe drop best use of rips out of description.

I know star stealing and eye candy awards are two different thing, but I think a single misao for visuals would be sufficient.

I would combine the trippiest and the punniest game award in best alternative quality misao.
Dark Souls of RMN and How the Hell are good categories in theory but again they need some manipulation (although Theia is both technically amazing and probably offers some really cool gameplay). I guess I would make it more obvious that it is a gameplay misao and probably manipulate technical prowess award a little.
