Welcome gamers 👏

Thought we should have an introductions thread with all the new folks joining the channel

What's your name, what games (or game mechanics/genres) do you like, and a little bit extra about yourself (are you building something? love to hear about it!)

Vulnerability is cherished here 🥰

Hi❣️ I’m benna.

Games I’ve loved & have stood out in the past year or so: BG3, The Binding of Isaac: Repentance, My Time in Sandrock, and I often go back to ACNH. 👼🏻 

Not building a game, but i’ve been thinking of publishing texts on art games for ages now!

Would love to know more on art games! Also - there are book publishers specialising in art of the games - might want to have a look at Bitmap books for example!

left LOADS of money there and have a couple of their books on my shelf and they not only smell great and look great but are a source of knowledge I love and cherish!

its never a niche. There is a niche within a niche - also check out this publicaiton -> https://retrogamebooks.com/products/video-game-maps-nes-famicom-ebook 

there is literally loads on it. While you're right about the "niche", IMHO we're past not many people exploring this or that & its great for learning purposes!

ohh thank you so much for the recommendation!! I have a few books on my list regarding this topic, but always up for adding more to my research :-)

glad to hear that the topic of art games interests you! it’s a bit niche, but severely underrated in the art & gaming worlds, I feel.
