Both were published by Annapurna Interactive. Along with Donut County, What Remains Of Edith Finch, and Gorogoa.
The only thing I've played that they've published that I felt let down by was Wattam, and that's probably substantially because my expectations were too high.
- bobthepanda 6y agoEh, for me Donut County wasn’t that successful. Though my frame of comparison is Katamari. Rolling things up, for whatever reason, seems to be more fun than swallowing them into a hole.
- dllthomas 6y agoYeah, I think that comparison is a little bit of a trap in that they seem more similar than they are. They both offer a fundamentally similar mechanic (and I think I agree that Katamari's expression is more viscerally satisfying), but Katamari is about momentum and control and twitch judgement and pathfinding; Donut County is (mostly) about solving chill puzzles (easy but clever) and following the story. Both have in common elaboration of their crazy worlds, clever dialog (though I think DC has an edge there), and great music (where I think Katamari has an edge). I do think Katamari is quite a bit more replayable. Watching someone new play Donut County is a joy, but revisiting it myself for the Nth time is... not.
- the__alchemist 6y agoOh nice - I've played most of those!
