How Replaced Explores the Relationship Between Technology and the Human Condition

I love the, uh, the incredible graphics and the, and the 2.5D world.

Like I said, I felt like it was made for me.

The, the, uh, it's the definitely the type of story that I love, uh, to jump into, and the central conceit is really interesting, um, in terms of, you know, an AI inhabiting a human.

I love that.

Um, and also [chuckles] oddly, uh, eerily timely commentary on, uh, on AI and humanity, so that's an interesting thing.

Um, and I really loved the design, uh, and implementation of the combat system.

It was really fun, really unique, and, uh, lots of unique twists that really held my interest and made the, uh, combat encounters really fun.

So for our listeners who maybe don't know what Replaced is, can you guys just give a quick overview of, of the game, um, you know, as a quick, quick pitch so, uh, our listeners can, um, understand the journey that they're-

Oh, lu- uh, uh, luckily we don't have like this pressure of like, you know, investment pitch, so [laughs] I can be, I can be, uh, whatever-

Oh, oh, we're-

... uh, like, uh-

We're invested.

[laughs]

Yeah.

So basically Replaced on the surface level is a cinematic platformer which with its roots ki- kinda gets into the classics of the '90s, like Flashback and Otherworld, but gives a modern spin on that.

Uh, because like it or not, today it's pretty difficult to play those games as they were just because, well, for various reasons.

Uh, modern, like people's attention span or whatever, but, uh, yeah.

Unfortunately today such game does- do not work as good.

But, like, uh, Replaced does that, plus it incorporates elements of, uh, more modern games that we like, that we love, like Uncharted and, uh, Batman: Arkham series.

Uh, because when we started the development, we thought to ourselves what can be like enhanced, what can, can be improved because, like, bare bones cinematic platform, uh, platforming formula is kinda too expensive because you have to provide a lot of content for like, uh, gameplay that requires you to go from point A to point B without like much of a gameplay system.

So I would say that in a nutshell, Replaced is a cinematic platformer with modern, like, as you...

We might, we might be like breaking about beautiful visuals, and, uh, gameplay, uh, which is based on Batman: Arkham series and, uh, sort of like a more of a cinematic platformers in, wi- within 3D space, like Uncharted or something like that.

Awesome.

Yeah, that, that completely is a great explanation in my opinion.

Um, so let's, let's dig into why you made Replaced.
