It's just regular smartphone video, but the application limits you to only six seconds. Combined with the social networking power of Twitter, the videos can be spread and watched quickly and easily.

"but he's acting like they have piles of cash just sitting around and it's not a big deal, which sounds awfully shady to me. If Double Fine had the money sitting around, why Kickstarter the game? $40,000 is the smallest potatoes in the world of game development, after all. And where are these piles of supposed cash…

what happens if they don't sell a single copy of the first half? Or if sales are simply poor?

As ThreeOneFive posted, you must not be familiar with Tim Rogers' articles.

Needs this as a backing track:

In English, we do that, too, but we tend to anglicize the words to make them more compatible with the language. Japanese does much less forced adapting, and will even maintain original character sets for given words.

Isn't "accidentally trolls" an oxymoron?

It's okay, you don't need to tell anyone that, anyway.

Well, the whole "mega" labeling only originated in the English dub. To my knowledge, the Japanese Digimon-related media never used the word.

Here it is:

When you do as many pushups as him, a normal diet just won't cut it!

FYI: Tim just mentioned your comment in a podcast he was doing... :-P

The pacing of the cuts is also kind of wonky,…

because I don't think this "OMG, we got so much money we can't finish the job on time" excuse is going to fly again.

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. 2160 x 1920 didn't make any sense to me whatsoever, which is why I brought it up as an issue.

2160 x 1920? Why are they assuming such an odd resolution? Then they say that it's 960 x 1080 per eye, though that would clearly leave a tremendous amount of extra space in the display. Is it really supposed to be like this?

Bah, I was one little chōonpu off...

Right, I meant red/orange/yellow tones. According to Ashcraft (in the second sentence of the article), the DVD version is on the left side, and the Blu-ray version on the right. The best example is probably the third image — the skin tones are way warmer on the left side (DVD) than on the right (Blu-ray). You can also…
