Dat pixel art, hnggggg!

Omocatis a stellar artist and kindred spirit, and she’s responsible for some excellent art and a particularlybadass jacketthat I want to wear. She’s also hard at work creating a beautifully surreal game known asOmorivia Kickstarterthat’s already hit its funding goal, but you should probably go ahead and toss some money the project’s way anyway. For science.

Omorichannels the best of worlds likeSpace FuneralandEarthBoundwith its bizarre imagery and whimsical narrative, and it looks like it’s right up my alley. That game I like is going to come back in style. Perhaps the biggest reason I feel so drawn toOmoriis its altered “traditional” RPG concepts, where the battle system contains states “based off real human emotions and conditions.” If done correctly, that could be so, so good. I ache for it to work out, because alternative ideas like this really tickle my fancy.
