For such an ostensibly small game, there’s such bigness to Despelote.
The result is special, something personal and universal all at once.
Football, suddenly, is life, and for Julian it’s all-consuming.
- over the head of your mother, father, and little sister in turn.
Memories cross-contaminate from childhood into teenage years.
Bass reduction, force mono, reduce dynamic range, increase dialogue clarity, hyperacusis filter audio toggles.
A kind of hybrid crossing of autobiographical documentary with fantasy retelling.
And, yes, also a world where football is indeed a community’s lifeblood.
The thing where Julian’s world begins and ends.
A copy of Despelote was provided for review by Panic.
