honestly yeah, devolver is cool and works with cool people
That's true, I kinda forgot Devolver is publishing Croteam's stuff.
Croteam was also created by a bunch of Yugoslavian software pirates who were part of one of the last highschool classes to graduate before the collapse of the USSR.
I had not considered this angle to Croteam, but that's a great point.
Yeah, they're basically a bunch of dudes who got one of the last socialist educations in the Soviet Union and were suddenly forced to interface with the West in their terms. Like Serious Sam only exists because they weren't allowed to sell "stolen" code for a soccer game clone they made. So they copied ID and made their own engine for it.
