Why most movingly? Because as Grace's pals describe seeing their first transgender men and women on trashy daytime talk shows and dumb sitcoms, the viewer slowly becomes aware that this show, right now, is changing that picture. Each episode details a different pain point: the horror of going through puberty and suddenly realizing your body is alien and profoundly not right the reasons why suicide is so common among transgender people and, perhaps most movingly, the glimpses interviewees got of transgender folks as they were growing up. "It's as important as the air you breathe." The men and women the viewer meets in True Trans are, at last, more comfortable in their skins, though it took a lot of suffering to get there. In his limited spare time he devours indies whole and anticipates the release of quirky, unpredictable and innovative games."Nothing is more important than being comfortable in your own skin," says one of the interviewees in True Trans, looking straight into the camera. As Head Editor and Review Manager, he spends far too much time editing reviews and random articles. He’s also an unashamedly giant Mega Man fan, having played the series since he was eight. He enjoys SHMUPS, Platformers, RPGs, Roguelikes and the occasional Fighter. He discovered Operation Rainfall while avidly following the localization of the Big 3 Wii RPGs. Josh is a passionate gamer, finding time to clock in around 30-40 hours of gaming a week. If you like interesting and beautiful games, you’ll be able to check out Bravery Network Online later on Steam.
I think that Gloam Collective might have a hit on their hands here. You don’t have to completely understand it to appreciate it. The game was flashy, beautiful and interesting. I found the combat quite fun, especially how you have a leader that can do a devastating move if you have enough of a meter charged. There’s also a bit of a type weaknesses here, though this is far from Pokémon. Yes, it’s a brawler, but it’s also kind of a fashion show? By doing more flashy things you can wear down your opponent’s will to fight, and that’s not the average response.
And by “attack”, I may mean something different than you expect. You’re able to swap characters out, but at the expense of using an attack that turn. You select a team of a few combatants, and fight against your opponent’s team. It’s not an RPG like I suspected at first, but more of a turn based Street Fighter, in a way. I was also drawn to Bravery Network Online by the simple fact it’s a turn based brawler. But no game is just about the art, so let’s cover the combat. In a weird way, the style reminded me a little bit of Scott Pilgrim, and that’s high praise coming from me. Because there’s something instantly captivating about the art in the game. I didn’t know then that the artist behind the game was named Guillaume Singelin, but I’m not surprised to discover he’s a comic book artist. Some of you may have already pieced together the reason I demoed Bravery Network Online – the art. Cause from what little I experienced of the game, there’s a lot to draw in fans. But everything else was a bit of a blur, and frankly that’s okay. There’s something in there about Bravery Network Online taking place in a post-post apocalyptic world where resource management is no longer an issue and the popular sport is a game called Bravery. I know it’s turn based, and that it has lush art and tunes, but as for the plot itself, I’m a bit flummoxed. This might sound odd a week after playing the demo, but I’m still not entirely sure what’s happening in Bravery Network Online.
