welp, i've done it --- the yetee successfully baited me into purchasing quest 64 and moon child t-shirts, which means i've come down with a terminal case of being a bluesky user if you see me start not getting jokes, you can just go ahead and plan my funeral. it's joever

Back in the mid-1990s, I made all Moon Child's graphics using DPaint on an Amiga, but I wasn't skilled in 3D creation yet. So I designed and printed a storyboard template, drew storyboards with pencil and directed 3D animators to realize cinematic videos that surround the game in the CD-ROM version.

As Team Hoi has a demo-scene background, we turned Hoi's final level into a crazy tribute to that. It resulted in the first ever epileptic seizure warning on a game box in 1992. 😅 I asked Ramon to create a fitting soundtrack. 🔊 (Be warned… Moon Child's final world features similar madness! 😵‍💫 😵)
