Month: September 2012

It’s September. Shit is getting real.

I know I can do even better and that it’s only the beginning but I’m pretty proud overall. I feel like I could inject some diversity into game audio, bring in some new flavor, if only developers could embrace change a bit…

Some trivia:

– Vimeo interface slaps the shit out of YouTube’s. It is SO much better and intuitive and clean to do your thing there.

– Germans and the demoscene share consistently more than anyone else, I could download the original HD file every time. Americans, Brits and the commercials/motion design crowd are the worst (you can only watch, never download and remix).

– The main edit was done in one shot, then days of tweaking polishing and cleaning.

– Rendering time on an old dual core with 2G of RAM: around an hour. Slow, but not so bad (I know the time when it was hours to do the same).

Meanwhile, three tracks and a game in progress…

Age restriction has nothing to do with it, even the heaviest gore, most brutal massacres can be captured in screen shots and published inside the community as much as you like as long as they are part of a game, any game on Steam – exposed female nipples, however, even if they are part of a game, will get you banned.

It’s not how people agree to private companies’ policies like Apple’s or Valve’s that kills me.

It’s not even how they don’t question shit about double standard, censorship (remember this one?) and ridiculous, unfair rules.

It’s the fact that they want more of that. They want these companies to take entirely over their lives because they have brands tattooed on their eyeballs and don’t want to see shit. YAY! All my games in one place (how many greenlight posts demanding Minecraft on Steam?) and all my life on idevices.

Internet freedom is shrinking in usage, not so much because of governments or laws. So many people already think that the internet IS Facebook and nothing else (you have everything there: news, friends, games). I’m freaking out.
