I don't think it's the graphics and art style that is lacking, it's the lack of animation and mechanics.

@JohnnyOstad

The jump speed, collision response and overall animations were dull, another thing is that this is not pixel art (some assets look like pixel art but overall it is not) , if the developer had gone the pixel art route it would have looked much better.

Yeah, no jumping animation is hard to ignore. Also, there's a too high resolution for it to look 8 bits, or too few details for 16 bits, so it looks like early nineties cheap games a generetion too late. Not the best era for a retro style. They should have gone full Master System.

...At least the creator made their own assets for the game?

When I refer to 8-bit graphics/colours i mean that i have used a limited palate of 256 colours, and a maximum of 256 sounds, which are 8-bit, however when it comes to the look i've adhered more to the 16-bit console limitations era aka: scaling and the amount of colours available on each layer, also the boss fights were cut down for the trailer and game will be more than three levels long.

Honestly not sure I like videos attacking devs who actually made an effort to make a game rather than a shameless asset flip. Yes it looks bad but at least they made the art, programmed it themselves. It shouldn't be on Steam but it's not an obvious scam like a lot of games on GreenLight.

It's a homage... I think... to the typical GL page description.

Lion Evil Smith's past is grim dark. I would talk about it, but I don't wanna cut myself with the edge.

Obviously, the game uses the 8-bits so well and efficiently, it feels 16-bit.

should have filmed it vertically

For a brief time, we got to feel like we, too, were the Beatles of people.

Theese kind of episodes should be a running joke for greenlight trailers that were recorded on a handheld camera.

Considering what we've seen in this series, this game looks by comparison good. A bit more polish and Waggtail could have a competent game on its hands. Somewhere, someplace, someone's mind has been blown by those parenthesis.

It feels like Jim has tied me in a chair and is holding my head to make me watch the video

I get a real Bubsy vibe from this game. They even have the same death animation.

Honestly I feel really sorry for Poor Lion Smith. Like if your parents decided your middle name would literally be the word evil, how could you ever end up anything but a villain?

I loved the change of pace! Great video Jim!

Hey Jim, I just wanted to say the past month has been a nightmare. Aside from being diagnosed with stomach cancer, breaking up with the love of my life and losing a friend to suicide, its just general been a nightmare. But your videos are the one constant and humorous thing that I cam enjoy thats been getting me through this. Especially at the 10 O clock hour when I used to talk to my love. Its been a big help.

When Beethoven sat down and wrote Symthony No. 5 I wonder if he could have ever envisioned that 200 years later it would provide the background music for Max the Cat. What times we live in.

The dev must have looked at Bubsy and thought "I can do this!" then proceeded to smash their face on the keyboard.

This is great!. All videos should be shot in first person mode from now on.

It's not a bad looking game at all. Animations could be worked on, but god, why that face for the cat? It's just so uncanny valley. And why underwear? Why not make him wear pants that shred when health is lost so he goes in his underwear like Ghouls n Ghosts?

You know, if this developer keeps at it, keeps learning and putting the effort in, they could make a good game one day.

It's not exactly steam quality, but the developer clearly put in some effort, and I'd even say they have some potential.

Somehow, "Lion Evil Smith" (or even just "Evil Smith") is one of the best villain names I've ever seen or heard. I wish to learn more about him.

Jim, I think you forgot to "have put more effort" into this video's description. Or was it intentional?

It does sound like the average greenlight page description.

why are you talking about video games on a porn review channel?

Its always nice to see other people using the steam green light backer on their videos.

I really love these non sequiturs he makes during the videos. Lion Evil Smith at an interview deserves its own internet short series.

A lil-explanation of "8-bit vs 16-bit": "8-bit graphics" means 256 colors max, "8-bit audio" means low quality (usually chiptunes), BUT "16-bit game" means it runs either on CPUs like Intel 386 or consoles like Sega Megadrive (which, btw, could show only 64 colors at once - meaning, while being 16-bit console, it had 8-bit graphics). So, while the game description sounds ridiculous, it is technically correct. Today's computers are 64-bit, but use 16-bit audio and 32-bit graphics.

I think the endeavor and imagination is to be praised. I love the spirit of this game. Continue challenging the cynicism of the industry Jim, don't add to it. Hard balancing act, I understand. Keep up the awesome work.

I actually got a cup of coffee before sitting down to watch this.

8-bit sound+8-bit graphics=16-bit game? We have some Jaguar logic over here.

"the developer more into their game than i did into this video" indeed

Next time jim can you just get a collection of soundbites of yourself and put them all together for a trailer like this?

awesome idea love it, so unique. feel like im you!

oh great, a camcorder shot gaming video. can we get retsupurae on this?

Well I mean I can see some sense of... someone knowing how to draw things in this. But I can also see that they need to improve a lot.

90% sure his name is Lion Evil Smith so he could say "Evil is my middle name!"

I’ll be honest, I like it. It needs much more work in every aspect, but it’s got potential.

Lion Evil Smith: the best villain and username Welp, Jim found his new villain for his short films.

I think its safe to say that Jimovision is a CATastrophe......

8bit visuals plus 8bit sounds equals 16bit game, Jim.

totes dig the new format

Sorry Jim, I couldn't watch this with the camera wobble. Felt rather unwell. Thanks for that. But thank God.... for you trying while at a hotel.

i think this one could have potential, if the dev spends a couple more years improving his art skills, and developing skills and has another stab at it. i like lion evil smith, i like max the cat. its a simple light hearted concept, no pretentious silliness going on. its definitely not there yet but i dont think the dev should give up on it

laughed my ass off with the thundercats bit

As someone who used to draw in Paint, this is reminiscent of when I started out.

Lion Evil Smith... I don't know how but somehow that reminded me of a song called John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt. Jingleheimer Schmidt sounds very similar basically.

It's about time Jim took a page out of DSP's book. Things can only get better from here

I wish I was good at art so I could animate that whole Thundercats bit.

When will Jim Sterling Sim be out for the rift?

Well at least you've tried. Can we hope to have anything on Dishonored 2 ? :

I actually got to feel like Jim Fucking Sterling Son today! So immersive! Was that Folgers in my cup?

First person mode, woah so immersive

I think I've never seen a game where it's so noticeable that it's only retro in look because they didn't have the ability to do any better. You know what was 16 bit? Earthworm Jim, and that had beautiful animation and eye popping backgrounds. This wouldn't be allowed to sit on shelves next to that.

8 bits for graphics, 8 bits for sounds. There's your 16 bit game Mr Sterling lol

This video is the Dark Souls of audio quality.

I like the game. Smoothout the animations a bit, adjust the sounds a bit and have a graphics enthousiast touch up the assets a bit. My daughters (4 and 6) would love this game. I see no problem paying 4 or 5 euros for the finished product.

Um, when did Ashens review a game on your channel, Jim? And where's the bloody couch?

I'll be honest, this has potential. If they work a bit more on the mechanics and update the art style a little then this could actually be alright. The animations are there though they are a wee bit clunky for the most part (though the way the portal disappeared was pretty good). They could even go more into the humour of it too, which it seems they attempted with the weird concept of it. In short, it's pretty good. I wouldn't play it as is but I'd consider it if they worked on it a bit more.
