Dark Devotion
The Arcade Crew has shared the third and final Behind the Scenes video for Dark Devotion:
Within the clip’s exclusive interviews, the team reveals they believed in their vision for Dark Devotion so strongly that they ultimately left existing jobs and studies in order to invest their full attention into the game. The team’s prioritization of development was spurred by a collective realization of how creatively gratifying the medium is; Programmer Louis Denizet first found his passion for development thanks in part to dabbling in RPG Maker, going on to later champion Dark Devotion’s inception for two years before his Hibernian Workshop colleagues joined in.
