It's insane that I didn't write a review for this game (though probably because I got it on PS5, so where to put it?) after I finished playing it in 2021. It's even MORE insane that I still didn't write one in 2023 after watching the monumentally insightful PSYCHODYSSEY.

Which you can also do, anytime you want. For free (maybe with ads? it's on youtube)), but you can also 100% legally download it or watch it from archive.org too.

It's a play-by-play account of the entire development process of Psychonauts 2, and I mean the ENTIRE development process. From Tim getting a niggling feeling it's time for a sequel, all the way to launch in 2021, moments of all these people's lives captured in 4k amber.

I've never designed a game, sometimes I think I might try to get involved in a game jam. That literally happens to the camera guy in this doc. He pitches an idea that takes off so much that it becomes part of THE GAME HE IS MAKING A DOCUMENTARY ON.

This is honestly just me telling you to watch Psychodyssey. Maybe if/when I play this game again I'll write a proper review.

this game is the best 3d platformer hands down.
