I interviewed Ojiro Fumoto about POINPY!! and got great insights like: - Why he made it free (so kids who are used to Fortnite and Roblox would try it. Also, the Netflix money was good enough) - His favourite fruit (strawberries) - The game he wishes he made (Cinco Paus by @smestorp.bsky.social)

Poinpy's Revival Is Free, Because of the Kids

"I'm not fond of taking money from kids," says Ojiro "Moppin" Fumoto.

Interesting finding out the reality of the situation with Poinpy’s Netflix exclusivity, delisting, and “return” with Devolver, but I’m so overjoyed to know that Poinpy - like all great ideas - picked it’s silly name first and worked backwards:

The truth behind the resurrection of Poinpy

Leadership at major publishers are in boardrooms as we speak frantically discussing how they need to get the license to the Odyssey IP/make an "Odyssey killer"/start working on their own Odyssey-like and in 5 years we're going to get trailers for 10 of these and maybe two will release.

I have a special place in my heart for Double Fine. The first (and only) company to publish one of our games and opened so many doors for us. I know all the people there are doing their best and I love em to bits. My heart goes out to the folks laid off.

I know I'm somehow a freak for this, but I'd always rather be spoiled on something cool than have to sit through 20 minutes of the blandest conversation you've ever heard because everyone's talking around a plot beat that's unimportant without full context in a game I'm never going to play
