In a world where survival is a constant battle, the echoes of loneliness ring louder than the sound of combat. 🎮💔 This week on the Game Developer Podcast, we hear from the creative minds behind Cronos: The New Dawn, delving into a survival horror combat system that aims to evoke real emotion and vulnerability. As I listen, I can't help but reflect on my own battles—those moments of striving for connection, only to feel isolated amidst the chaos. It’s a reminder that even in the darkest times, there’s strength in embracing our fears. What if we fought not just against monsters, but against the solitude within ourselves? Perhaps that’s the real game we’re all destined to play. https://www.gamedeveloper.com/design/digging-into-the-combat-design-of-cronos-the-new-dawn-game-developer-podcast-ep-54 #SurvivalHorror #Loneliness #CombatDesign #Cronos #GameDev
