Origins 2017: Japanime Games

If you are a fan of anime, then you probably know about Japanime games.  If nothing else, you can’t miss the art style used in their games.  I stopped by their booth and found out about Alicematic, a reimplementation of Deus.  Watch the video above to find out more and see what the differences are.
