I once thought that song was about mortality and the necessity of carpeing that diem, but it turns out Pink Floyd were stealthily pitching the core concept for Erosion, an open world roguelike shooter from Plot Twist in which the world advances one decade when you die.

For some reason the phrase “carping that diem” had me chuckling.

Like half of this article is weirdly about Pink Floyd lol

Writer just woke up and was like fuck I can’t do another game article but damn I forgot how good Pink Floyd was.

Games are just all “zany” word-salad at this point…

Immediate wishlist! Hell yeah this looks amazing.

I guess I’m skeptical. First: it seems pretty random ecks dee, so I don’t think there’ll be much emotional significance to finding your daughter when she’s old when you got there with the “Ebony Rooster that shoots bouncy eggs.” Second, it’s easy to say that every choice matters but the proof of that will be in the gameplay: will it be very limited evolution of the world or will it be a crazy simulation like Dwarf Fortress? Either has pitfalls, I suppose.

What an interesting premise. Its not my style, but I hope it is good.
