I started development on CLASSIC GAME one day after hanging out in a storm drain. I felt that oldschool games had become harder to find and so decided to begin working on my own when I got home. It took me about 6 years to complete CLASSIC GAME, a time during which it went from black & white graphics to full color, grew in scale and scope, and generated many small fragments of ambient music. It was a highly experimental game but I feel it turned out fairly well. I learned a lot while making it. Cheers from Ontario, Canada.
This game.... It honestly should be preserved just for the technical skill and mystery alone.
PLUS HAVE YOU EVER TRIED TO FREAKING GOOGLE "ClAsSiC gAmE"?!?!? It is impossible.
A few years back I helped "find" the game for r/creepygaming. I had started looking for the iceberg games from an older /X/ iceberg. Managed to find this one, a few others, and && (Twicefold Ampersand).
It was a really fun experience, and in finding CLASSIC GAME, I found a talented artist, sadly unknown by their peers. It's a genuinely amazing game, with wild visuals and puzzles, a mind-blowing combat system for both it's time and RPG Maker 2000, and a super interesting plot that you really have to work to solve.
I genuinely hope to see this and the rest of their games on here. I'm sure Lewis would be excited too!
Please, everyone, check out this game and the artist. They also make super cool soundscapes and music, they make super cool gifs, and they even have some game info on their YouTube channel!
Honestly this game is such streamer bait too I've been trying to get SuperEyeparchWolf and a few others to play it for a few years.
Thank you for your time, CLASSIC GAME is the Classic Game of All Time!!!!
a couple of years ago I went digging thru some old uboachan threads and found a quietly ignored reply where HORSES' MUSIC-DOGS had posted CG EP. some considerable digging later, I became utterly entranced by the whole of his artwork, which exists scattered in an enormous heap dating back over a decade.
of his games, naturally, CLASSIC GAME was the first I had played and its really a superb work. it isn't a great game, great games would come in later releases, especially and in particular the recent release of HOME GAME 3, but I digress. CLASSIC GAME is an immaculate -work of art-. The air is bitterly cold, the weight of the atmosphere is crushing, and absolutely full of secrets (a common theme of all of the games!) - fascinating at the deepest level.
I would unhesitatingly recommend CLASSIC GAME to anyone (and have, to many people) as well as the rest of the games and encourage them to dig through the heaps of non-videogame works that HORSES' MUSIC-DOGS has created. In digging through them, you are likely even to find a remarkable thematic consistency and narrative baked in with a frankly ridiculous level of care and dedication. How these works have gone so quietly undiscovered for so long is as much of a mystery as the works themselves.
edit: oh, and lets note for good measure, this post was written while listening to Morning, birds EP :)

Kingdom HeartsThe premise of Kingdom Hearts is designed around traveling to a collection of levels that are both original designs, and based on various Disney stories, referred to in-game as "Worlds". The Worlds are populated by NPC's, based on relevant characters from the corresponding Disney story, for example, the World based on Disney's Alice in Wonderland features appearances by Alice, the White Rabbit, and the Queen of Hearts. Interacting with these characters forms part of gameplay, while combating the games enemies, the "Heartless" forms the other.
Successful completion of a World is accomplished by defeating a key foe, which is either the primary villain from the Disney story, a unique Heartless of particular strength, or a combination thereof. Each world has a key foe which must be defeated, although there are many mini-bosses, side quests and treasures to be found that contribute to character progression within the game, and give bonuses for their completion in the form of weapons, items, and bonus scenes.
The game uses an experience based progression system, with experience gained by defeating foes. Experience gained rises in relation to the strength of the foe, and is consistent for each enemy over the course of the game. Levels are gained with experience, and provide increases to stat attributes in strength, defence, magic, hit points, magic points and ability points, with a new, predetermined ability unlocked approximately every four levels. Enemies also drop a combination of four types of reward upon death, green orbs that replenish HP, blue, translucent bubbles that replenish MP, yellow diamonds that contribute funds to the in-game currency "Munny", and tiny chests that when picked up, add a item to the players inventory based on the foe defeated. Such items include those used to restore HP and MP, items to aid party members or synthesis materials which can be used to create weapons and armor.Action Fantasy Comedy
