Chicory: A Colorful Tale - Art in Video Games (with creator Greg Lobanov)

[@nebulae5236]

Chicory genuinely went from a “wow this game is amazing” game in the first half to a “this game is a masterpiece that makes me want to experiment in sound design and gives me the confidence to try a new hobby, relates to me so personally that I broke 3 times during the game, and has become my favorite game of all time” game in the second half. Thank you, Greg Lobanov and friends, for this absolute masterpiece of a game :)

Glad you enjoyed as much as I did! Thanks for watching, and hopefully, Greg shed a bit more light on the development of this amazing game.

What did you think of this adorable game? And what did you call your main character? Mine was Pasta. :) Hope you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.

[@Javakatt]

Omg I’m almost halfway through the game rn, mine is Pasta too lol

[@EmonEconomist]

Mine is Bolognese; I feel like our characters would go well together! 😂🍝

It pains me to see how few views this video has. It's very well made and a great insight from the devs. The game is quite overlooked as well... I don't understand why.

[@ArtLike]

Thank you for the kind words. It pains me as well. Take a look at the other Art in Video Games videos. More on the way soon!

[@DarkHarpuia]

Whenever I am having a bad day where I doubt my ability to make art, I think of Chicory. Anybody can make art, and art does not need all the pressure we put on ourselves. Thank you so much for making this game.

Well said. 😀

Oh my gosh this is amazing!! Thanks for making this video! The voiceover by Greg was also really nice :) 💜

Thank you for the nice comment. Take a look at the Katana Zero, Downwell or Gris videos. And share! It really helps! 😀

[@steventhesheep4613]

Amazing video! I’m happy to see more about how the game was made, this game means so much to me and I’m happy to see people making great content about it.

[@ArtLike]

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. Maybe you’ll enjoy some of my other videos in my Art in Video Games series. Take a look! 😃

[@unvergebeneid]

I like that the "canonical" name of the character is "Pizza". Makes sense I guess, everyone likes pizza 🍕😊 Of course it's alwo wrong, as the character's correct name is obviously "Lasagna" but whatever, I'll let it slide 😄

I really like seeing the pre-production art for the quite sizable collection of expressive animal characters.

Take a look at Alexis Dean-Jones' website if you'd like to see more of her work. She's extremely talented.

This was such an interesting video, thank you for making it! I haven't gotten very far into this game yet, but I'm even more excited to see how the story unfolds now!! :-)

When playing through this game it made me think a lot about what sort of artist I wanted to be after I finished university. There’s so much I want to do but I usually feel pretty lost about it. It was nice honestly just thinking about it in a more... positive way. It was really easy to see myself in both Chicory and Pizza. In really distinct ways. I really hope this game gets more love it’s such a wonderful game.

[@l0rd0f5k33p]

One of my favorite games ever

[@ArtLike]

Me too. Thanks for watching!

[@ryanmorfei6325]

Actually, the main character's name is Pork Belly. I really hope you went so deep as to name every character after a food all to justify the mother reference as powerfully as possible.

i love this game. thank you greg :)

[@Ludamage]

Wow! What a lovely game! Reminds of a mix between Mario Paint, Zelda and Undertale - soo nice ^^ I'll share this video :D

[@ArtLike]

Thank you. Yes, it’s a great game made by a talented group of artists that was just released. Thanks for sharing! 😃😃😃

[@osiahene]

I was surprised Greg didn't mention Okami as one of the games that allows you to draw. It's always sad when great channels like this one continue to be overlooked.

[@ArtLike]

Thanks for the nice comment. I’ve taken a break from making videos for now since the results are less than stellar. If I return, I’ve got Manifold Garden and Rain World videos that I’ll post next.

[@osiahene]

@@ArtLike This channel reminds me of the now defunct game developer interview channel Sup, Holmes? Channels that cover indie games from the developers perspective are hard to come by so it's sad to see them go.

[@waryinzero]

My most favourite game since Untitled Goose Game.

[@anthonybrooks291]

I oddly feel validated that I named my character Pizza and Greg refers to her as such as well haha!!

[@ArtLike]

Pizza is the default name…LOL…😀 But I know how you feel because I also called my character Pizza in my 1st playthrough. Hey, pizza is awesome!

[@anthonybrooks291]

@@ArtLike Oh I didn't know that! Mine was blank when I played on the Switch! I'm just basic I think haha!
