Zeboyd Games Is Getting All Phantasy Star With Cosmic Star Heroine

This game would be neat if we were living in 1994. What's with everyone doing this "retro" artstyle shit? This would've been just another game back then, but somehow it's amazing now. This hobby is getting sad.

I want this game already

Could do with scanlines. Other than that, I'm sold.

Games are art! ... and I love the art style of this game.

Can they hurry up and put up the kickstarter so I can back the shit out of it then wait impatiently?

Zeboyd Games is putting along. Awesome.

@arach666: Agreed, Phantasy Star IV really is the best of those games. I often compare it in my head to Chrono Trigger: both were late-gen releases, both were slightly overlooked compared to their predecessors (PSII) or contemporaries (FFVI), both were ahead of their time in a lot of ways, both had killer soundtracks...

Thanks Patrick - now I've gotta push my PSIV replay to the top of my schedule.

Anyway, the art style for this gives me a slight Space Quest vibe. I swear I'm not crazy... play Space Quest V for a bit and you'll see it.

@evercaptor:

Phantasy Star 2 is still a great old school JRPG but if you really want to try a game from the series then you should go with Phantasy Star 4,it´s the one that aged the best and it´s the best one in the series overall,though the shortest and easiest.

You can get it super cheap on steam.

Is Phantasy Star 2 worth playing, still? I've looked at it a few times but Old RPGs show their aged design.

I'm sad that not everyone loves the art style for this game.

I love the art style for this game!

I love that stylish games are art.

@johnbakosh: What?

I love the style for this art game!

Coming to the Vita it is!

This looks phenomenal.

Here's an interview RPGamer did with the devs:

I love the art style for THIS game!

The teaser doesn't show any gameplay, but I like the Snatchery aesthetics and music. Here's hoping this makes its way to the Vita!

This game's stylish art is worth loving.

Glad people enjoy it ;) I directed and did the layouts/composite, and worked with Bill Stiernberg (the artist at Zeboyd) to come up with something cool and reminiscent of the TG-CD/SegaCD era. Of course it was a pleasure to also work with my music team at HyperDuck SoundWorks one more time.

The ghost in the giant bomb machine must be busted sooner rather than later. Look below for context.

Woah. Huge Snatcher vibe from that intro. I dig it!

Art. Game. Love?

Enjoyed the music, but contrary to what popular opinion appears to be I think the art is fugly. Still no idea what the game is or what it's about so here's hoping for some gameplay.

I love the game for this art style!

Somethings bugged it's double posting for me wtf.

Alyssa La'Salle -> Alisa from Phantasy Star?

Love is over, but this art style isn't.

@rayeth: That's because it's deliberately done in the Sega CD style

I'm not a fake account (as far as I know!) I just thought the original triple post was funny.

Anyway, this game really does look great. I never got to play Phantasy Star so I hope I can enjoy this without the addition of rose tinted glasses.

I don't know that I love the the art.

That music on the other hand - Bangin'.

Yep someone signed up a few membership gold and silver accounts to post the same thing a bunch of times using different user accounts

I don't really like the art style for this game.

Art styles love this game!

Haha! oh man, I love the arts- ... wait a minute.

@noblenerf: It's coming to PC and Mac as well

I love the art style for this game!

Nevermind, someone already mentioned it.

Is this game Playstation exclusive?

I love art style.
