Top image: Dead Cells by Motion Twin. Why? Great game and great trailer ! How many times do you need to show a hooky idea or game mechanic in a trailer for people to understand it? My general rule is at least twice, but no more than three. The reason it’s good to show something 2-3 times is firstly because if you only show it once, the person watching might miss it entirely and if you never show it again they could be missing out on a key game mechanic.

Plot: It’s a pretty typical Sonic game in terms of story, and this also has the Sonic series debut of a character named Cream the Rabbit. Gameplay: It’s a Sonic game, and that’s pretty much all that needs to be said.

I think “the developers vision, as talked about by game hobbyists” usually means whatever the particular game hobbyist likes or believes in most. To my knowledge, humans don’t really have the ability to read other humans’ minds with any accuracy, so actually knowing what the dev team’s vision was during development is essentially impossible for those on the outside.
