I don’t want to have to be negative here, but I’m gonna have to call bullshit on that “carefully selected pixels” bit. The art style isn’t cohesive at all. Pixels are all different sizes, some sprites are detailed while others aren’t, some have unnecessarily dark outlines, and the fireballs have bloom effects and lens flares on them (presumably from the engine). It’s a total mess.

Just realised ‘boglin’ is an anagram of ‘goblin’.
OMG the LAYERS OF PARALAX!
I think the joke was: princess and half the kingdom but mangled, then wondering if that was the right phrase.
Wow, it’s not every day you see 2D games in unreal engine
Tomorrow. Homicide.
Who is hyped for tomorrow’s Jimquisition?! I know i am.
At least this pixel art is impressive. The same can’t be said of some of the others, but this is really well done.
Who else is excited for the Jimquisition tomorrow?
“save the princess, get half of the kingdom” come on, Jim, it’s a game about a jester, that’s perfectly fine English, just as a joke.

Did I lust hear the Wilhelm scream?

“Only TRUE pixelart” but the trailer contains copious amounts of modern Unreal Engine lighting effects ?
Oh thank god this game is not a rogue like.
Does anyone else think there are too many parallax layers? It makes the screen look cluttered.
It’s the 27th. Come on, where’s the video Jim? Refresh refresh refresh!
2D game? In a fucking Unreal? Is this dev insane or just an idiot?
Looks cool
