Thoughts?I honestly think it looks gorgeous, and it's exciting that someone outside the sphere of the games industry appreciates the medium for its artistic potential.

I was a bit confused at first, but then got really impressed by it. I want to see more.

I happen to know that Kanye's production company has been reaching out to developers, even indies, for a while now so I wouldn't be surprised if he announces a few more video games at some point in the future.

Is this how video games will reach a level of respect as a medium from the general public?
Also the trailer made me genuinely excited for it so I'm looking forward to seeing how his game turns out.

I don't think it will be good, but it will get praise anyway because it's Kanye. I hate his music and I don't like his bloated ego and that's what makes me think he will try to create a half-assed superficial story knowing his fame will support it even if it were a complete joke of a game (in this case this would come off as genius kitsch of course). Don't get me wrong, I don't want to come off as a hater, deep down I want this to be good, but when my friend links me some rap analysis of his lines I cringe inside.

I use to be the same until I started freelance indie dev full-time and I had to explain what I do for a living to people. I get the same look from them as I had been giving kanye fans in the past. I still don't like his work or his personality, but at least now there is a begrudging sense of respect for what hes achieved, even if its in a medium I don't understand. |

I love how Kim's game was this hugely successful, dominant, Product and then Kanye's like "im going to do a deeply personal piece of art about my mom's soul flying towards heaven."
say what you want about them, but those two are in a position to completely flip the industry status quo, both in terms of audience and content. i for one welcome our new yeezy overlords!

So who's actually making it?
Maybe it is all kanyes doing... If you as much money as he has you can get the best teachers, the best tools, etc. I'm not a rap music fan but there is no denying he's a passionate person. With passion, time, tools and energy you get skilled quickly. I would be surprised if that was the case but maybe his true calling is games? He said a year ago he was working on this for six months if i recall correctly. Either way this is an interesting situation! Can't wait to see more. Now where is soulja boys game at? He announced that around 2011 I think... |

I stumbled across this little gem this morning...
Awkwardly, Kanye explained that he had trouble getting this game made:
That’s not easy to do, man! Y’all just be acting like that s*it is regular. No, you don’t understand. I go out and meet with everybody in San Fran, and they’ll diss the f*ck out of me. And I’ll be like, "I wanna make a game," and they’ll be like, "F*CK YOU." That was hard to do, bro!
I have no idea how big the intersection between Kanye West fans and gamers is, but apparently Kanye had trouble finding a developer who thought it was big enough to invest their time in.

it's funny how people already have *strong opinions* about this game despite nearly nothing being known about it.
