For me, those hours were mostly spent on putting together the story, the voices (except for cameo characters likeMistyandDitto), digging up music, trying to get the audio levels right, and the occasional bit of visual artwork that no one else had time to do (usually backgrounds, because not one likes making those). I’m happy to say my art looks like crap next to the work of the real artists on the show....

As a recoveringLoLaddict, that both scared and excited me....

Loading Zone Knobb’s Endis staged to look like just another generic indie RPG. However, it’s not even really a game. Instead, what you get is a hilarious satire of the lengthy loading screens from games likeSkyrim,The Witcher 3, and evenFallout 4. Full Disclosure: The whole thing leads to a link for the pilot of their new show calledNPC.It’s pretty decent too, but the real star here isKnobb’s End.
