![]() Months later, injuries sustained from the accident-coupled with a serious case of tuberculosis-claimed his life. Out on an excursion that winter, he lost his footing and fell off a cliff. As they grew up, Richard taught them everything he knew about the fossil-collecting business, and he even made Mary a rock hammer so she could excavate small fossils for herself.įossil hunting was a perilous job, and over the years, the Annings had many close calls with rockslides and rapidly flooding shorelines. Of the Annings' 10 children, only Mary and Joseph reached adulthood. ![]() A year later, the second Mary almost died as well when she, her nurse, and two female companions were struck by lightning while walking on the beach. Mary died when she was just 4 after her dress caught on fire Molly was pregnant with her third child at the time, and when she gave birth six months later, on May 21, 1799, she named the newborn girl Mary. Richard's wife, Molly, gave birth to their first child, Mary, in 1794, and a son, Joseph, in 1796. But even with two revenue streams, he struggled to provide for his family, and their life was marked by tragedy. One of them was Mary's father, Richard Anning, a carpenter by trade. Realizing that rich tourists would pay a pretty penny to take home one of these natural curiosities, fossil hunters started selling their finds throughout Lyme Regis. In Anning's time-and today-fossilized remains of marine animals from this period can be found protruding from the cliffs and scattered along the beaches that surround the coastal town. Around 200 million years ago, the Lyme Regis area lay at the bottom of a Jurassic sea. Many supplemented their income by cashing in on the area's natural history. Meanwhile, the poorer citizens who lived in Lyme Regis year-round struggled to make ends meet. In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, affluent Britons made it their seasonal home away from home. With its towering cliffs and tannish-white beaches, Lyme Regis has long been a prime vacation destination. The seashore where Anning's shop was located was on the English Channel in southwestern England, in a town called Lyme Regis. So it was with complete honesty that this daughter of a poor carpenter casually told the King's physician, "I am well known throughout the whole of Europe." And years after her death, her legacy would live on in the English language's most famous tongue twister: She sells seashells by the seashore. Though Anning didn't receive her due credit from the male naturalists who reaped the benefits of her labors, word of the fossil-hunter's many achievements still managed to spread far and wide during her lifetime. Born into poverty in a society famed for its class consciousness, the 45-year-old businesswoman had defied the odds to become one of the world's most important scientific figures. ![]() She'd spent a lifetime simultaneously providing for her family and unlocking the secrets of Lyme Regis's ancient past. ![]() ![]() There were Jurassic-era fossils throughout the small, unassuming shop, and yet, the single most fascinating thing in the store may well have been its proprietor, Mary Anning. Treasures lay on the other side of the glass: Coiled ammonite shells-long since turned to stone-were arranged in an appealing display, and in the center sat the petrified skull of a long-snouted sea reptile with pointed teeth and impossibly huge eyes.Ī sign above the door read Anning's Fossil Depot. In the summer of 1844, King Frederick Augustus II of Saxony and his royal entourage were walking down Broad Street in the coastal town of Lyme Regis when they were drawn to the window of a cottage. ![]()

Those two things will just go together like chocolate and peanut butter.' But in reality, it became a massive challenge" "On the surface, we felt was a pretty simple thing, like, 'Oh, it'll be like Limbo and The Walking Dead mixed together. But we were like, 'The biggest challenge that might be cool for us to try to overcome is just marrying those two things,' and going, "All right, let's do something more naturalistic where the player doesn't ever get taken out of the 'gameplay' and put into a cutscene. And that's fine, that's a great, perfectly fine, more passive experience. ![]() "So it's usually like, I'm walking around, I'm solving a puzzle, I'm doing things, doing whatever, and then I walk into a trigger, and now suddenly I'm watching this cutscene where there's subtitles, but I'm choosing from these subtitles. "The first big one was when you look at those games or a lot of branching games, the moment of actual communication is very divorced from the rest of the gameplay," Krankel explains. So we thought, 'I wonder if we take some of those true events and some of the things that were happening in that time and put our kids in a story that is dealing with some of the ripple effect of that and tell it in a supernatural way.'" "It feels like ancient history to most people, but in reality, 1943 is not that long ago at all.

![]() ![]() The hunt for aesthetic pieces and playable NPC cousins is still there, but extra secrets have also been added. New side levels aren’t the only extra additions, as there are extra collectibles and modes that come with this remaster. While a tutorial level helps players acclimate to gameplay, the side stories featuring the young King provide extra challenges for players that wish to finesse their skills while also giving opportunity to gather new collectibles. ![]() Now it was no longer about how big you could get the Katamari, you also had to fulfill a secondary objective as well. Where the first title had us rolling up Katamari to certain sizes, this sequel introduced rolling Katamari to collect certain objects or rolling them for various purposes. This was a criticism of its original release, but We Love Katamari did bring fresh ideas to the franchise by introducing varied objectives. While co-op feels just as fun as its original version, there still isn’t a lot of map variety or variety in competitive objectives so gameplay can feel redundant until the story is progressed to unlock more maps. With We Love Katamari, there’s an increase of the ever-bizarre complexities by adding in a multiplayer mode so you can now drag loved ones, or enemies, into a versus couch co-op. The controls of Katamari can seem perplexing at first, especially with how busy the background can feel with all the shenanigans occurring, and even more still if you’ve never played a Katamari game. If anything, some of these extra levels can be used for training purposes to help acclimate you to the ever-interesting gameplay mechanics. While these extra levels have no relationship with the main story, it’s still a nice addition for extra lore and fun when you can roll around as a diminutive King. The introduction of new side missions where you play as a young King help bridge the title’s story and gameplay - something that was missing in the original release. This Reroll version of the title now dives deeper into the King’s backstory as each new story chapter unlocks additional content. It’s a sequence of events that gives us laughter, tears and the occasional “aww” moment. In a story as old as time, you see that the King has gone through his own set of parental issues - which explains his lackadaisical attitude towards his son and a continued cycle of fatherly disappointment. As you assist the many fans around the world, you’re treated to a secondary story that details the life of the King of All Cosmos and his relationship with his father. Seeking to fulfill the wishes of these hardcore fans, the King asks that his son and various cousins assist with rolling Katamaris for humans. We Love Katamari plays heavily upon the success of the first title, with this sequel’s plot revolving around the King of All Cosmos and his surprise that there are so many Katamari fans on Earth. Now when the King of All Cosmos asks, “Is Katamari Damacy actually fun?,” we can say that it absolutely is. ![]() Where the original 2005 We Love Katamari felt like more of the same with limited replay value, this remaster is packed full of extra story and secrets to keep the fun rolling for a long time after the game ends. The inclusion of five new challenges starring a young King of All Cosmos, a new selfie mode with unlockable frames and filters, a new Eternal Mode for play without time limits in certain levels and overall quality-of-life improvements elevate this title past its original release. This newly-enhanced version of the second Katamari title spruces up everything from aesthetics to gameplay content, and more. With a resurgence of the original Katamari title in 2018 with Katamari Damacy Reroll, the series is back to continue its oddball streak with a remaster of the sequel: We Love Katamari Reroll + Royal Reverie. ![]() The way Katamari exploded in underground popularity led to the franchise’s continued success, and subsequent sequels. Is Katamari Damacy really that fun? That always seemed to be the age-old question regarding Namco’s ridiculously-eccentric sleeper hit. ![]() ![]() Βήρυλλος ( beryllos), denoting beryl, which contains beryllium.

Not only will good typography enhance the website’s personality, but your users will subliminally begin to associate the typeface featured on your site with your brand. Let’s delve a little deeper into why typography is so important. Typography should guide and inform your users, optimize readability and accessibility, and ensure an excellent user experience. Good typography will establish a strong visual hierarchy, provide a graphic balance to the website, and set the product’s overall tone. Typography is so much more than just choosing beautiful fonts: it’s a vital component of user interface design. Suddenly, web designers had an abundance of fonts and type options at their disposal, making typography more visually diverse than ever before. With the birth of the internet came a creative explosion of the art of typography. The first example of typography can be seen in the Gutenberg Bible, which kick-started a typography revolution in the west.įun fact: the style of type used in the Gutenberg Bible is now known as Textura, and you’ll find it in the font dropdown menu on major desktop applications today!įast forward to 2023, where typography is mostly associated with both the digital design world and print. Before the digital age, typography was a specialized craft associated with books and magazines, and eventually public works. Typography can be dated back to the 11th century, during the innovation of movable type. ![]() To understand typography in 2023, it’s necessary to take a quick look into its development: A brief history of typography ![]() In short, typography is what brings the text to life. It involves font style, appearance, and structure, which aims to elicit certain emotions and convey specific messages. Typography is the art of arranging letters and text in a way that makes the copy legible, clear, and visually appealing to the reader. Let’s kick off with the basics: just what actually is typography? How to choose the correct typeface for your website.Finally, we’ll look into the different elements that comprise typography, and what they all mean. We’ll then address the benefits of good typography and the impact it can have on your users. We’ll start with the definition of typography, including a brief history of its origins. In this article, we’ll lift the lid on everything you need to know about typography. But what actually is typography -and why is it so vital? In reality, different moods, atmospheres, and even trends can be expressed simply through the type choice. We often reflect on the power of the written word, but rarely do we consider the designer’s role in emulating the tone of the word or sentence.īehind the scenes, a designer has taken the time to consider the relationship between the look of the text and what the text says. From instruction booklets to shop fronts, type is all around us. Whether it’s on our phones, in books or on websites, we’re constantly digesting written words. ![]() ![]() ![]() Her golden pauldrons are shaped like a pair of crescent moons, each with one thin, purple bat-like wing shooting outward. The sleeveless robes are long enough to cover her feet and hug her neck, but expose some of her chest. She is dressed in graceful robes of purple and gray fabrics with gold accents. Her hair also flares to either side in the shape of a pair of bird-like wings, and the stars of the night sky can be seen on the undersides of these "wings." Her waist-length hair is elaborately fashioned with a braid on either side and a high bun held up in part by a golden crown. She appears to be wearing black eye shadow, purple lipstick, and periwinkle nail polish. Nyx has pale gray skin, yellow eyes, and very dark purple hair. Hades Review – The Long, Hard Road Out of Hellġ7 September 2020 Physical description However, she genuinely has good intentions behind it. The true reason Nyx chose to help Zagreus leave the underworld to reunite with Persephone is that it was part of a larger plan to end the rivalry between chthonic and Olympian gods. With ultimate authority, her phrases end with "Are we clear?" She does not like to be contradicted and can be cold, unfair, and commit injustices, as shown by Dusa. She will conspire against Hades and pull the ropes strings behind the scenes.ĭespite her compassionate tenderness and attentive parenthood towards Zagreus, she is not usually like this with her own children, treating them with emotional distance and professionalism because it will strengthen them. Zagreus witnessed Nyx being his greatest defender against his controlling fatherhood. Nyx was able to bring him back from the dead and change his tragic fate, but that did not stop her from reprimanding him or being tough on him from time to time. ![]() It is implied that Nyx may know even more than Hades about Persephone, but cannot tell him because of Hades' prohibitions, so he will have to discover the mysteries behind his mother's disappearance and himself on his own.Įven though supporting him means he will have to leave the "flax" and she will see him less frequently she encourages him. She never felt comfortable lying to him, unable to look at Zagreus without feeling guilt and responsibility for the conditions that bind him to the kingdom. She was the first to unconditionally support him and contact the Olympian gods to help him escape. She deeply supports Zagreus' desire to leave, and will grant him the "Mirror of Night", which will aid him in his quest for answers and self-discovery.Īlthough the chthonic gods represent darker aspects of humanity's reflections, and for this reason the Olympians dislike Nyx and fear her, Nyx is considered benevolent, approachable, and maternal towards Zagreus. ![]() She co-rules the underworld alongside Hades and is more involved in the state of the realm itself than its inhabitants. Nyx is the primordial goddess who personifies the night and is the mother of (among others). ![]() |
