I actually played Subscribe and Punch now. I feel like it was a good idea but the execution needed a lot more time in the oven. It's cool that they wanted something more casual oriented, but some collisions just felt wrong. The presentation, though, was spotless and the ideas were very good. I'm sadly not the target audience because I have no idea who the guys that are parodied are - never watched a pewdiepie video :')
About Roeb's update, I showed them your post, maybe they'll reply at some point. They are currently hard at work!
About that article - no, I seem to recall he was just talking about PKMNCC. I don't think he had other projects in mind at the time. BTW did you know that he worked on Royalty Free 4 All? He is the head artist of the game!
i dunno, maybe he has shifted his focus or somethin'.
OH MY GOD WHY IS THIS GAME SO GOOOD?!
