Giant ROM 2: Backstory
By b33 0 Comments
I got a little bit too lazy and i'm starting a game for Giant ROM 2 with 3 days left.
The theme is:
"WHAT HIDEO KOJIMA DOES NEXT"
Since i've got a small amount of time, i'm going to use PICO-8 to produce something simple. It is going to be my first try using this.
What is PICO-8? It is a fantasy console by Lexaloffle Games. It provides a small set of tools for game creation, while keeping it all really focused (and constrained).
The tools are defined, but what i am going to make?
My Kojima backstory
I played Lunar Knights and Metal Gear Solid years after the release (not to completion), so i'm not what you call a Kojima connoisseur. I've watched all of Metal Gear Scanlon though.
Although i like the ridiculous stories from Metal Gear, almost everytime the melodrama is too much for me.
I like Metal Gear as i like Anime. I like it crazy but keep Japanese clichés to a minimum. Unfortunately, as i understand, you sometimes cannot have one without the other.
Right. I'm going to start brainstorming now.
