Jake RodkinI am working on what may be both the stupidest and, at some level, fulfilling, thing I’ve ever put in a video game. I can’t wait to share it.
I’m pretty sure this was about this: https://www.polygon.com/2021/2/19/22291802/firewatch-switch-platformer-forrest-64
JP@ja2ke That's great, but I'll bet you can do stupider. I believe in you.
@jplebreton It’s true. We made this mode when in the weird hangtime before moving up to seattle and it was a great pressure release. It was a lot to cram into an undocumented Easter egg in a switch port but I’m glad for it. And to our credit, this mode does feature a race against a raccoon in a UFO made of trash cans, voiced by Chris Remo doing a German accent.
@ja2ke outstanding
@jplebreton Sorry for continuing to toot the horn of this Easter Egg but I just remembered that it deserves additional tooting: Forrest 64 featured covers of two of Chris’ pieces from the games original score (the Prologue and Ol Shoshone), done as N64 tunes by Cabel using appropriate soundfonts and limitations, and then we commissioned covers of Cabel’s covers by XOC for the soundtrack release: https://music.youtube.com/browse/MPREb_NsBaE0fXMYQ
@ja2ke daaaamn this is good.
@jplebreton I have no idea where that came from!
