Posted on 8 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
The developers behind The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom have shared interesting details about the early days of making the Depths. This comes from the new art book that just came out in Japan.
The Depths are one major area of the game alongside the sky and Hyrule itself. However, things didn’t come together immediately. Art director Satoru Takizawa seemed to initially have an idea in his head about “a Cretaceous Period-like world with dinosaurs or the mythical underworld.” The team did actually make an experiment based on this. Director Hidemaro Fujibayashi also indicated that the team played around with the brightness, noting that “there was a considerable amount of trial and error” before the final level of darkness was decided.

[Review] Rugrats: Adventures in Gameland
Posted on 9 months ago by Dawn in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: September 9, 2024
Developer: Wallride
Publisher: The Mix Games Inc.
Rugrats is one of those cartoons that seems to get better with age. As a child I enjoyed watching the adventures of the babies as they transformed the everyday into something new and exciting, and as an adult I can appreciate the dry humor and now very relatable struggles of their adult parents. Although they have featured prominently in Nickelodeon titles, it has been some time since the Rugrats have had a game to themselves. Rugrats: Adventures in Gameland, their first solo outing for many years, feels like a platformer taken straight out of the era when they were at their most popular, for better and for worse.
