Sega released an ad that was pretty much that "Sega does what Nintendon’t", comparing Sonic Racing Crossworlds with Mario Kart World. Gotta love how, to avoid a lawsuit, the graphics for the “open world racing” is pixelated censor.
PocketPair announced Palfarm[1], with the textboxes being ripped straight out of Animal Crossing and even their own not-Ankha. For a company whose chief game is being constantly forced to remove features because of shitty patents, this feels like the perfect taunt and middle finger
Here’s to hoping more companies decide to poke fun at Nintendo
Which I hope is a real game and not just an out of season April 1st like More than Just Pals ↩︎
When it comes to Sonic racing games, I would actually prefer a Sonic footrace game, like Sonic R. I find it weird that the platformer footrace niche has been ignored by the gaming industry.
Anyhow, I look forward to trying out Palfarm. Never played Animal Crossing, so it would be good to experiencing that on my PC.
For an Animal Crossing-ish experience on PC, you can try Dinkum (indie, solo dev) or Hello Kitty Island Adventures (unironically good, but also limits some activities per real day, like AC New Horizons)
