I laughed about Rorie's Mr. Shifty fandom for awhile, but wound up loving it once I actually played it. One of those games that just feels great to play and doesn't outstay its welcome.
Aside from the clear influences like Hotline Miami and Nightcrawler's teleportation powers, where did the idea come from? I'm interested in the origins of Mr. Shifty and that cool-ass, silly name.

great question! I'm definitely going to ask some of these!
Mr. Shifty is definitely one if those games that prove sometimes in games "simplicity is bliss." I wonder, in keeping with the simple and straightforward gameplay if there were any mechanics or gameplay ideas that hot axed or if the game's structure and design was set in stone right from the start.
Also, between this and the Mask of the Betrayer interview, maybe Rorie starts a seasonal video series where he talks to the designers of his favorite games.
