"Dawn of the Devs" is a 2D puzzle platformer where three game industry gurus (Tom Schiffer, Biff Klozinski and Hiro Komiya) embark on an epic quest after they are drawn into the Wicked World of Gaming, an alternate world where every negative aspect of the game industry has come to life thanks to the dark arts of sinister character. Together they'll have to combine their unique abilities while they journey through twisted lands, defeating enemies and solving puzzles to rid the World of Gaming from the sinister menace that has risen and threatens to destroy the gaming industry forever.

During a popular game event in Los Angeles, three game developers are drawn into a parallel world known as the Wicked World of Gaming. A world that was once not wicked at all, but has become corrupt since the rise of one sinister character, known simply as Chief Evil Overlord (C.E.O.). His power grows with every downside, every drawback and every negative bit of the game industry, and he is rising an army to also end the Earth's game industry.

Only a bunch of heroes can stop the scheme of the Evil Overlord. They are legendary game gurus whose skills in game development have developed into unbelievable powers in the World of Gaming. They'll assume the task of defeating the hordes of evil, and restoring order and peace to the World of Gaming.

Dawn of the Devs takes place in a detailed and rich fantasy alternate reality known as the World of Gaming, a hybrid between a fantasy land and the videogame industry.

This world is divided in different lands - each one of them represent a specific area of the game development industry. Game conventions with mindless fanboys, infernal offices where game development is a torturing process and a dumpster where all game bugs and glitches are dumped are some of the locations where the game levels of Dawn of the Devs will take place.

Deep into the woods, the Gameyard is a dark and gritty forest where every failed game, every closed videogame store and every defunct game company lies. This land is ruled by a ruthless and caustic warlock known as The Meta-Critic, whose only goal is to revile and look down on other people's work through his vicious reviews.

Graves and absolete game systems populate this creepy land. Angry trolls, always ready to insult and curse and downvote with their clubs, while wretched Twitbirds throw out offensive comments to anyone within reach.

The Pirate Harbor is a haven for all Copyrates, a band of rogues and scoundrels that earn profit by illegally acquiring and duplicating content. Their leader is no other than Mick Dotnet, also known as The Mega Pirate, a succesful entrepreneur who has made a fortune thanks to sheltering and protecting the Copyrates.

Copyrates are constantly sieging the Ivory Tower Island, an luxurious building ruled by vicious and merciless Vampublishers, creatures who feed with money and exploit all their prisoner developers.

The Console and Computer Church, or C3, is both a sacred temple and a pilgrimage place. Game characters are represented in the stained glass windows of the church walls, and videogames and their creators are revered and worshipped almost as god-like entities.

It isn't an entirely safe place, anyway. Mindless fanboys have become addicted to videogames, and now roam through the C3 with an insatiable appetite for games. Different cults are confronting each other for the one and only truth of videogames, gaining adepts for the Almighty Red, the Omnipotent Green or the Supreme Blue, while the Believers of the Master Race despise them all.

I really hope Quinn is a playable character

I hope everyone involved in this game immediately dies.

Lost Vikings for retards and the easily amused?

See, when it is presented as an obvious copy paste with no fellow anonimans slang, you know its not shilling jsut cheap bait

Videogames were a mistake.


this

This isn't a real thing is it?

kickstarter.com/projects/321726829/dawn-of-the-devs
Oh god it's real.

This is hardcore cringe.

Dawn of the Cucks

Haha oh wow. So they aren't even going to use Shitface's funding platform then?

Today is just a veritable avalanche of disgusting news

I don't understand if this game is meant to be pro or against the corrupted part of the videogames market

Pro-corruption, pro-wha-wha-people-are-mean-to-game-devs!!!!!!

Is that fucking kojima what the fuck

Yes.

I'm wondering if they even have the three's permission to use their likenesses like this. Kojima would have ample reason to not want to be grouped up with the other two.

Funny thing is even people who agree that game communities are "toxic" are likely to say this is just pouring gasoline on the flames.

Its shit like this that makes me tired of freedom. I just want a militaristic state where fat faggots like these are put down for being utter pieces of shit.

Why the fuck does that look like Hideo Kojima?

I feel like throwing up. This is no figurative speech, I can feel the food already rising back.

What did we do to deserve this.

I haven't cringed THIS had since those brony spaghetti videos.

Oh my fuckign GOD.

I see that the opinion on kojima is kind of divisive here, but he is leagues above those fucking retarded dumbasses. By the way this is just another "TOTALLY NOT A PROJECTION ABOUT MY INSECURITIES GUISE!!!" """""videogame""""", I bet it's going to be complete with ideological propaganda, ebin maymay joks, and le gabery goberados alligator derision, what a load of fucking trash.

is something important happening today?

...

Because Hiro Komiya is supposed to be Hideo Kojima as opposed to Hideki Kamiya

You and me both, brother.

I was going to go to the gym, but I think I'll kill myself instead. Thanks OP

I was waiting for the GG reference

They really can't move on, can they?

Wow, it's actually a video game that literally represents a crippling fear of criticism and distaste for any form of authority.

Either way, I sure hope they asked to use these peoples' likenesses and full names in their product, otherwise they're guaranteed to get shut the fuck down immediately.

I've seen worse today , but who the fuck would actually find this an enjoyable premise to play?

so, i was wondering how's that psychonauts 2 coming along Mr. Shitface?

This is the worst god damn thing I've ever seen

Imagine the irony of having the game shut down and then the devs go on bitchfits about the real life counterparts being morons when their product paints them in a positive light. What baffles me is that they plan to feature devs that are known to be complete fuckheads, with those descriptions eerily resembling things a "zombie fanboy" would say, like the creators are just desperate for any of those big names to notice them.

What the fuck did he do to get lumped into this bullshit? I can only hope he tells them to fuckoff.

Those aren't their names user, it's literally Notim portantSchafer and his crew.

missed opportunity

Nobody will ever make a "meta" game about video games right.

I get why Tim Shithead is so reviled, but I haven't heard much about Blezinski.
What's up with him?

That at least could have been fun, especially if they took the piss out of the devs instead of slobbering all over their cocks

god i can smell the passive-aggressive bitch salt from here

bleeding heart liberal to the nth degree with a penchant for bitching at anyone more successful than him over twitter

it's hard to imagine the guy helped make jazz jackrabbit

Five United States Dollars on there being a not!GamerGate boss.


He's making Overmeme in Low Gravity. He also said that his game will be made for a mature audience, not those anime-loving pedophiles that love Overmeme.

...

Hideki Kamiya would just block them all.
I want the bald fucker to pound my boypussy

I saw this on All Games Delta, automatically unfollowed the son of a bitch and went back to OPRainfall and Niche Gamer.

Also I hope no one gives this game money other than nu-male fuckboiz

...

Just some euro-mexicans stroking the indie clique dick

I'm not even surprised

Fucking Beaners.
Can't wait for trump to deport them.

I think I hate them more than I hate niggers at this point

...

Oh wow. The butthurt is almost palpable from this. It's literally some retards crying that there are ebil trolls on the interwbs not slobbering on developer cock 24/7.

One of the creators retweeted this Spanish Anita tilting at windmills

One of these things is not like the others

...

They cant just let it go can they.

Porque esta puta PERRA simia no se va a pudrir en un dicho?

So a spic version of the good old hoop-eared gypsy herself, eh? She even comes complete with the "I own 20 cats because they need me and will never leave me, unlike MEN" dead-eyed look and shekel-sensor nose.

On a semi-related note, what would you call such a fusion of awful cultures anyhow? A spicsy? Sounds almost magical.

Fucking degeneracy.

> Peter Molyneux - Literally has the power of a god. note: does not literally have the power of a god.

> Sean Murray - Can trick evil gamers into aiding him instead! Wow! Has the power to attack 18 quintillion times per second! All these amazing Dev Powers! Can temporarily crash the game to confuse and disorient enemy gamers! Mind = Blown! Playing as Sean Murray disables all other playable characters

the narcos are getting sloppy at killing people

The only way this could be redeemed is if Shitface turns evil in the very end, tempted and turned by greed.

Or in a sequel where all the main characters are now evil a la Overlord with the seven sins and the former heroes.

That's awful decent of them. They could be asking for millions of dollars that they don't need. But at $65,000, you can tell they just want this to be a little marketing stunt, and $65,000 is like petty theft. Good for them!

So, is there a way for these people to be publicly executed?

Jim Sterling?

Kim Dotcom

No, a parody of Kim Dotcom

that's because it is theft, don't actually expect this game to be made

Well shit. It's hard to tell these fat, greasy fucks apart.

seeing what the enemies are, it looks like the game is going to be showing Shitface in a positive light.

This is their resume the "characters" companies.

to the

youtube.com/watch?v=iHpxhBVKdwQ

I thought so! It's going to be delayed several times, fail to deliver on many of its promises, and be released episodically too!

Ha, I saved this pic too. I think we will all be seeing more of T. Facebook Froge in the future.

NAME THEM ALL

This reminds me of the stupid shit I used to think up back in middle school, except at least I wasn't as blatant about who was based on who. I wouldn't be surprised if one of the main villains was modeled after the dude dating a girl the designer likes or something.

No bet.

sh-should i kill myself?

you should if you know the girls, only faggots play shitty adventure games

12/20

I only recognize Gabe, Miyamoto, Will, and Tim

how is kojima a cuck?

Yeah I'd say he's pretty cucked.

This looks h*cking disgusting

You are beneath me.

Should have just went with the early 2000's Gabe, he should be remembered better back when Valve still made games

I could look past the cringy factor of putting dev idols in there if it werent for the godawful art, holy shit is that bad

wonder what Kojima thinks of this, Bet Shiggy will try and DMCA

Only the two Japs there didn't betray gamers. And that's assuming Shiggy doesn't have some responsibility over Nintendo selling its soul to casuals.

It's kinda sad that the first thought in my mind after seeing that pirate hoop earring was "tranny".

What?
The AGD just fucking does news?
No biases, no opinions just pure fucking news.

you are literally fucking cancer.
You are actually part of the problem. I've said this many times as a basic insult in my years on both 4chan and Holla Forums.

This is actually the first time. in the 12 years i've been using imageboards. That I've actually seen a comment. That I thought "Holy shit. this guy is actually contributing to a lot of the problems we have with video games nowadays."

You actually disgust me.

This is more self masturbatory than the Neptunia games. And they're asking for kickstarter money on top of that? They have to be out of their mind.

Betting 10 Bison bucks on a pillowfort made of dakimakuras.

He's one of the faggots who helped perpetuate the "PC gaming is dying" meme back along because UT3 didn't sell as well as he wanted.

Also here's a pearl of wisdom from him that he'll never live down. Come to think of it it is really stupid of these devs to pick him to idolise considering he's got shit like this to his name. He hasn't even made anything anyone gives a damn about for years so it's weird that they even considered him significant enough to include in the main characters.

...

Shiggy senile not a traitor.

now that's what i call self-indulgent

these fucking flairs

I'm not seeing any female devs or devs of African American decent in this game. This is extremely problematic, guys. It's 2016. Why can't these racists and sexist pieces of shit see that we need more diversity reflected in our games about game developers.

They're all faggots though, so A+ on representation of the LGBTQRSTUVWXYZ community at any rate.

you have to go back

Self immolation is looking more and more appealing every day.

Holy shit, it does have an anti-neoFAG bracelet

Fucking grand

...

Oh my god, you're unironically correct. And it's not like they're bereft of choice - consider the folks behind King's Quest, Legacy of Kain, etc. It's honestly funny to me that these folks are so myopic.

3.3m man, ???, kicked from konami man, gun skin casino man
you can do anything man, old nintendo man, spore man, rosie o'donnell
civ man, con man, ???, about to make me his bitch man
???, dude sex sjw man, beardless tim schafer, quantum physics man
?????????????

Is that some kind of pseudonym for Hideo Kojima

...

This is the worst fucking meme

top kek

Also Hiro Komiya is actually someone credited on a single game.

What meme? This is entirely contrived. Who would take a single moment of entertainment from this? Perhaps someone entirely not involved? Someone who never bought into it like a rube? Certainly nobody making it or involved with the kickstarter. This isn't a passion project. This is an identity project. Not even pic related.

Only two of the people in that picture have a semblance of talent anymore. Miyamoto and Gaben are just money grubbing kikes.

Yes, this.

Something seems off about all of this. Did they really get permission to use the likenesses of the three characters? Pic related and Blezinski I can see selling their souls or doing it for free to jack off their egos. Kojima is a bit harder for me to believe…

And if they didn't get Kojima's go-ahead, is it even legal to use his likeness like that?

its legal in america which is why something like broforce can exist

...

Upvoted, frienddit! :^D

I remember that movie, the part where the KKK had a fight against the niggers was pretty good, rest of the movie was shit

You sure? I'm definitely no expert, but it just strikes me as odd… These people aren't celebrities. The nature of their job isn't one that puts them in the public spotlight. Further the game isn't a parody or a satire. It's a clear cut of using a real person's likeness (in a way that is obviously intentional) for profit.

I have my doubts and I could easily see someone pulling a "shut it down" on the whole thing.

Please kill me.

This guy doesn't sound so bad. Is this one of those stories where the foolhardy heroes take on what they perceive as evil only to realize too late that they were the demons all along?

Also,

in what capacity are shiggy and gabe "the plucky little guy devs" as opposed to tyrannical publishers


theres no waking from this nightmare

But they're hip and cool, theyre part of video game culture!

I guess they should have made it the complete opposite, something like Pikmin and you throw your legions of fans to attack people with different opinions?

fuck

You fucking wish it was that. These people will stroke their dicks bloody for approval.
Self reflection is non existent to these creeps

Nice double dubs, but there is no lesser of two evils here, fucking indie devs are fucking ideological snakes while CEOs of big game companies are kikes, fuck these guys and those hacks they chose to suck dick.

He got cucked by Konami

I think a lot of people here have no idea how you're supposed to properly use the word cuck and just assume that it's a general purpose insult for someone they don't like. You don't have to be a bad person to be a cuck, the most literal definition would be you getting off to seeing something you love get fucked but I think it's fair to use it if the subject doesn't enjoy getting "cucked" anyways.

But Kojima wanted to stop working on the shit Konami forced him to (Metal Gear). That's like if you wanted to divorce your wife for ages, and she then gets one while fucking Jamal and making you not pay alimony. He's not a cuck.

This is western gamindustri, but wherein japs had focused Neptunia on the consoles, the west instead focused on their flagbearers.

It says a lot about the clique arrogance, as if anyone ever wanted to play as tim schaefer.

But Broforce is a parody of 80's action stock characters as played by stock actors of the time, this is unambiguously just Tim Schafer and Cliffy B. and other game devs.

I get the sneaking suspicion that almost all of the people they're making pastiches of want absolutely nothing to do with the project.

Unfortunately these likenesses would fall under parody law, there's not much you can do against displaying a similar-looking character with a similar but ultimately different name.

Imagine this actually gets made: its references will be completely impenetrable within two years.

but seriously they must be the only people left who have a positive opinion on Molyneux

The stock characters still use the actor's likeliness. The developers of this game are legally safe but that only matters if someone actually sues them and I doubt any of the hacks have enough money to fund a non profitable lawsuit.

The case could be made for that that they're using the character's likenesses rather than the actors for something like that. Something like this, no fucking way. It's blatant who each character is supposed to be.

Do normalfags even remember CliffyB at this point? Name Gears and he'd be probably scapegoated for the maximum masculinity.

No fucking shit
Ever played those flash games which had the exact same character with no change?

Also, Broforce aren't going around unfucking up the movie industry or some gay shit like that, they're doing what their characters actually do, which is fuck shit up.

Most of these guys and their status as false heroes are contributors to the failure of the industry.

So this is basically a western version of the Neptunia series, except not fun, not cute, not humorous, and chock full of political agendas instead of cutie philippino cartoons.

That has literally nothing to do in relation to a lawsuit

Tim and Cliff seem to like it, but the others most likely either don't know or don't care that this exists.

Everyone involved deserves a bullet to the head, no question. But are you guys really surprised that a group of narcissistic wankers make a game that's basically a self-referential circlejerk?

Zero self awareness.

Don't forget the part where the "gameplay" looks to just be a copy of one of Mr. Shitface's flop games (The Cave or whatever the fuck unoriginal name) from a few years back, which itself was a ripoff of The Lost Vikings minus the fun.

I don't give a fuck about the lawsuit: this is just tasteless.

I guess it's okay when you do it

Drone, get out and worship them some more, and go support Mr. Shitface's fig.

Does Mr. Shitface use his sock-puppet?

I don't care about gaming celebs or this dumb parody game. I'm calling out your own obsession.

Even Portal 2 is more recent than Cliffy's relevance.

Should've stopped there ya weeb.

I can only dream that the game would turn out to be self-aware and depict the hero devs as a bunch of faggots or reference embarrassing things like Schafer's sockpuppet.

so it's trine monica?

It might end up having that special kind of lack of self-awareness where the characters you're supposed to like end up being unlikable (and vice versa) even in the game's depiction of them.

That depends entirely on if the villain they show is Teagan-tier

Whatever you say, remember to hit on reddit and buy No Man's Sky on the way out.

So can anyone guess the 3.3 million dollars mans powers?

And why isn't Phil Fisher (with his special - Choke On It!) in?

DLC

he got canceled

Carmack doesn't like video games, he likes technology.

this

If by some miracle this game does see the light of day, someone should mod mr. shitfaces face to be a piece of shit

How does it feel to be the Man, Holla Forums ?

It's pretty simple. They need the more famous and recognizable ones so they can get more people buy their low-energy shit.
Also, pushing this in front of SJWs might make them generate less money, although it might backfire.

No, it's Lost Vikings, you uncultured millennial scrub.

Amusing since vidya would be better if none of them were in it.

I'm calling it now.

Your point? All hacks.

wew laddie

How many GG references will there be?

the fuck is this?

Over 9000

Waiting on Wu, Quinn and fucking Sarkeesian to appear on the game and the game straight-faced say "It's about ethics on!"

Neogaf is complete Cancer.
Also, dislike club.

Billions. The entire fucking game will be focused on it probably.

Will they be proceduraly generated?

Tumblrite made pretty big RPG, it was exceptionally shit, except for that one character who was supposed to be an unlikeable prick but ended up being the only character that made any sense.

...

...

lol, name?

Why not go with MILLIONS, they're all "incognito" anyway.

Fine I'll spoon feed. It's called uncommon time.

Does someone have the webm about that shitty sockpuppet math GamerGate joke?

...

...

Is this that faggot who made a Fallout 4 video every day before it came out and then praised it like the second coming when it finally came out.

No, this is him.

I do not have any reaction image to properly visualize the disgust and hatred I feel for these bethdrones

What was the name of the blonde guy again?

You just know it's going to happen. Almost every antagonist in the game is gamers.

...

...

Who the fuck did they expected to sell this to?

Jesus Christ I can't believe this is the guy who made Unreal Tournament

He's not.

What do you mean? I always thought he was

Maybe they expect to sell themselves to some big company.

it takes more than one people to make a successful game hurf undertale durf fnaf

people who claim fame for the stuff made with a whole talented team tend to be huge hacks. remember armikrog? mighty no 9?

He worked on some maps.

Hipsters and casuals? Primarily hipsters?

So, they manage to add six characters and could not find one single female developer?
Oh, this might make them get some unwanted heat for sure!

educate me on these semen demons, user.

They look like they know their craft

That spanish doesn't look natural at all. it feels like they used google translate or was made by someone who took Spanish in high school.

Spoonfed, when the files even have her names?
Damn, I will do because they deserve it.

mobygames.com/developer/sheet/view/developerId,6281/

First names, yes. Last names?

Anyway, thanks.

What are you talking about? Everything written there makes perfect sense. Except for "en torno" which is written "entorno", I believe.

t. spaniard

Tim was always overrated. He has a decent sense of humor and that is ALL of his good qualities. Stick him in the corner cubicle to stamp out a few funny lines and he will help your game. Allow him to do ANYTHING ELSE and your game is fucked beyond belief.

I don't know, it just feels off. Then again it's because spic Sarkisian is saying it.

Actually, it's used right. On the context of the whole phrase the spacing is correct

t. uber spaniard

Never heard of reverse searching the images?
There are some really good women in the industry, but the retards focus mostly on freaking artists. Artists are not developers. They are important, sure, but they are not responsible for the playable part.

What's Molyneuxs ability lying and disappointment.

Shame on you guys. This is the very first real RED FLAG that however is making this shit doesn't care about quality.

Take a look at the shirt. The "BAN ME" is backwards. You might be thinking that it's a style choice, to imply you can't ban him or whatever. But I hope to see a video of this particular level, so we can see how the troll switches the staff from one hand to the other when he flips directions.

This is the red flag? Not anything else?

Probably SJWs.


To be fair, a good chunk of women in the industry are artists. I'm more concerned that they focus on artists for shit vidya.

Artists are worse than idea guys because idea guys only receive worship after they latch onto a successful game. Artists get an ego boost without having to actually have made a game, and are even bigger kikes than publishers, who at least have the excuse of having it in their nature to be kikes.

Looks cringey, but from what OP posted they haven't mentioned social justice/gamergate, but instead are taking a jab at the corporate nature of big games and maybe even a jab at the reviewers.
That's not to say they WON'T turn into a bunch of cucks spouting shit agendas in the game, but they haven't said anything like that yet despite the opportunity to. (Unless OP left it out)
I'll pirate it maybe.

Wait, is it a TIM SCHAFER game? If so, there's gonna be heavy sjw shit probably, but he'd NEVER mention it in the kickstarter. He's gonna let it fly under the table till it's out, and he can't have his precious money fucked with.

It's not a Tim Schafer game

Not by him, just about him.

Well, the first one related to the actual gameplay anyway.
The rest of article has enough red flags to keep china supplied for the next 150 years.

...

WEW

Muad'dib?

65 grand wouldn't be enough to pay one salary for all these fuckups in San Francisco.

No they don't, at least not anymore.

it's a scam

in before Nintendo sues them for using miyamoto's likeness

Trolls is coded language for "anyone who isn't a leftists faggot"

oops left those one

People use cuck as just a general insult like faggot and nigger And while I think sucking dick is mostly a shared interest here I doubt we're majority black


Just using you as a jumping point but aren't leftist notoriously bad at making an actually hateable villain. I remember how the Red Skull became a politician and was given arguments that were suppose to make him look bad and unreasonable, but were perfectly fine. Hell the literal Nazi seemed like a good candidate and it wasn't until rednecks started wiring up their kids that you realize he was suppose to be bad.


Could be a real punch in the feels if this project wasn't being headed by two fuckwits.
Are the indies seriously assblasted about Piracy? Probably because it let's people see what piece of shit they churn out and decide to not buy it.

...

You can't have a game project on twitter with an all white male cast. Throw some nips in for variety and you're fine.

has nintendo been alerted

Don't pay attention to parasites. They're the same on anything.

Student filth throughout this site for example. All the same. Not the slightest like who loved the games.

Sold out to whatever they're preyed upon by.

Give such scum any consideration and you deserve the corruption.

Have faith in what's out there. Is what is out there.
