I haven't heard anything about Armikrog since the whole controversy spiraling their kickstarter. How'd the game turn out?
It was a disappointing. Repetitive/ uninteresting puzzles, rough around the edges, short length. A shadow of what the Neverhood was. Too be fair, there was no way to could have lived up to its spiritual predecessor.
That's my opinion anyway.

That really sucks.
Being a fan and advocate of stop-motion animation has been complete suffering these past few years. Between this, Hell & Back and Boxtrolls, nothing has gone right.

When is Hell and Back out?
>>323102942
Never mind, just checked it's out.

I rather liked Boxtrolls. Most of it anyway.
I really liked it. It's very much an old-fashioned 90's adventure game, but the story was still more fun and creative than anything you'll get out of Telltale.

It came out in theaters back in October. I couldn't muster the dignity to go check it out. Guess I'll wait to give it the once over on Netflix later on down the line like I did with Boxtrolls, but I probably won't enjoy it.
>mfw I was this close to backing Armikrog.
Would've been my first Kikestarter too. Dodged a huge bullet.

Is there ever a kikestarter that has 0 controversy and actually delivers with no bs

I didn't think it was TERRIBLE per se, but the drop in quality in Laika films since Coraline has been noticeable. I wish they'd just hire competent writers already instead of busily animating all day. I'm sure that shit takes great care and attention to detail but great animation alone doesn't carry a film.

I meant on DVD, but it's out I just checked.
>>323103776
Agreed. I imagine the animation alone annihilates any semblance of a budget the films might have.

The controversy is that the main animator stated years ago he doesn't think fags should get married.
For some reason people think this affects games.
People just want to complain.

Well, if you read his blog, he's an ultra-Calvinist asshole who hates everything. The gays are the least of it.And I liked Earthworm Jim...never meet your heroes, kids.

I think it was ok, not good nor bad.
Got bugged in the middle of the game and lost my save, i'll probably finish it some day.
