How cool! What kind of work? Any good stories?

[–] bowsertattoo@piefed.social 18 points 3 days ago

I did compositing! It was a blast to work on, we had the game on an arcade cabinet at our studio. We shared an office with Star Trek Lower Decks so there were cardboard cutouts of TNG characters everywhere lol.

Oh shit! Congrats on this being released! And I see you all worked with the creator of Lower Decks to bring this show to life. I loved Lower Decks and hated that it wasn't renewed despite being one of the best modern Star Trek shows.

Based on the trailer for Golden Axe, it seems the same tongue-in-cheek referencial humor will shine through. I could've done without the trailer narrators sounding grating, but I guess that's moreso the fault of Paramount's marketing team.
