Heavens yes; I'd love to have my own game hosted on my own website, particularly for a hundred bucks a year. I get a cut of the "Accounts upgraded via my site" fee, and my customers get access to my game first and foremost, everyone else's game as a bonus - sort of like buying Diablo II and it's bundled with Commander Keen 1-4 for free.
And I especially want to prove that 2d still has life left in it. It's ridiculous that everyone's so amped over polygons when they just get flattened into a 2d representation of a 3d world anyway; if the camera doesn't rotate, who cares whether or not Aya Brea is defined on the reverse-angle? Some of the best games ever didn't have or didn't need polygons - Castlevania Symphony of the Night, Disgaea, FF6, Super Metroid...sure, it's a nice effect, but given that you can't rotate the camera in FFX, why define the summons as polygons? They're FMVs for chrissakes...Donkey Kong Country had it right, sprites of polygons, the end. |
