Quick Look: Gunpoint

KAPEW!

Looking forward to checking this out.

BTW, if you're a Patrick-superfan, you can check out a Patrick-only-look of this here.

Fire away!

Ah scary face is number one!

:O Giant bomb is hiring Mr. Caffeine?!?! My dream!

There's a hidden frame right at the beginning of this vid.

I'm gonna leave it to everyone else to try and get a screen grab.

I'm so incredibly hyped for this, so I'll express it through JIFs.

damn ryan that's a creepy thank you at the end

Pretty fucking crazy to think that this is the guy's first game. I'm probably going to end up dropping $30 on the Super Fancy Edition just to get the 40 min "Making Of"video

This was a very difficult Twitch stream to watch, as Patrick was trying to figure out how to play and was skipping a lot of the text and doing things wrong. Hopefully he got better for this Quick Look.

@assinass: you mean gifs

I dub this a Trick Look.

What?

@mankmachinery: I'm calling it. Giant Bomb E3 ARG. Rolls off the tongue, too!

What is that mad hidden frame there at the start?

I'd need better eyes to play this game...or a magnifying glass...eveything is sooooo small! There's more BORING background on screen than anything else... meh :/

I submitted music to be used in this game, along with such luminaries as C418 (the Minecraft dude) and a bunch of other people, but was beat out by the current composer.

Admittedly he did a way better job than I could have, but here's my submission, so you can see what could have been.

*SNIFF*

@tebbit: That's not bad music there. Reminds me of a thriller.

Guys, the Grid 2 quick look and this quick look have very washed out colours. Like the blacks are now more grey than black.

I've noticed this on recent live streams as well. Someone needs to turn that gain down man.

I really enjoyed this game's demo, looks like it's super cool.

@tebbit: Your music would be pretty good for a sci-fi noir game.

Wow is this a GB QL of Tom Francis' game? Super surprised they would be bother, but glad they have.

Indie games saving GB. No looks of the quick otherwise.

I was just about to ask that.

It's the tail-end of the countdown they use to start Live QLs, Vinny just missed a couple of frames of it while editing it seems.

This looks great!

Might wait a bit before picking this up to let the community make some more content for it. Looks like a great palate cleanser. Something to play between to big games.

Yes, pretty ugly looking.

Best demo I've played in a long time. Game bought.

i dont know whats going on with the image at the start.

The original creator said JIFs!

Looks interesting...

@assinass: It's pronounced jif, but spelled gif. And you spelled it jif

Ah, so this is Tom Francis' game. Looks really neat.

is no one going to mention the game doesnt come out until the 3rd while in the video he says out today?

This looks AH MAZING!

I just think its a bit too zoomed out.. want to see more of that pixel art!!

Jet out of here, STALKER!

Sorry. When we recorded this, I thought it was going up on Monday.

@patrickklepek

The writing is the best part about this game! Totally non-optional.

Why does it feel like they've already quick looked this?

ARGH DA FONT!

@assinass: That guy is stupid

@assinass: It's funny because the word "jet" still works in the context of the sentence. OH YEAHAHAHAHHA

Reminds me of an old, somewhat lame joke I heard once...

Watching the news as a child, I used to think people in my town were incredibly stupid. The anchorman would always report that some couple was murdered at Gun Point. For years, I thought "Gun Point" was a place. I kept wondering why people always frequented the place, if citizens were always getting killed there.

*rimshot*

I believe I heard this on one of the Ricky Gervais radio shows, I forget who told the story however.

@tebbit: The music you did is great, but I feel like it just doesn't quite fit the game. I guess the dev felt the same way. You should definitely keep trying to get your music in a game though.

Oh shit. The spambots are Canadian.

We're doomed.
