a newspaper is a very unserious thing, the thing that tells you war and poverty are coming for you also has a “travel section” and a bit with the top 5 bluetooth speakers right now
so utterly crushed by the weight of the world. not even 5 back-to-backs of “never say die” by chvrches can help me. tomorrow’s a new day.

how come in the OP to stardust memory they sing “i dont need kino […] i dont need coochie”
jucika flirting with a guy with zsíros kenyér breath, being repulsed by it, then going home and eating a zsíros kenyér
we all love complaining about silksong difficulty or whatever but have you ever tried playing custom music in a rhythm game where your favourite songs aren’t like “happy birthday”
“which guilty gear character wud u fuck” is a better personality test than myers-briggs, enneagram and the other one all put together
the guy who invented wojaks should probably get negative royalties for his effort, every time someone creates a new one about 5 cents should disappear from his bank account

i think i would vote for a talking shoe if it was credible that it would repeal the uk online safety act. haven’t ever seen a more thoroughly odious, ill-considered piece of legislation causing both tangible harm and constant fucking annoyance for no upside
(i do not consider farage to be credible when he talks about anything)

the “participants would rather administer electric shocks to themselves instead of be alone with their thoughts” post is like my “you eat 8 spiders in your sleep a year”
i think its fine to skip stuff in video games if the person doing it is cool but if they’re not cool i dont want them to do it and i think the disc should blow up in their ps5 if they try

this is a good post and all i would add to it is:
if people treat indie games as existing in direct bloody-minded competition with each other, they might just manifest that situation, and everyone will lose.
dust mites are always like “man i love dead cells”
fuck it. i’m totally done with it. living by the rules of others, in constant reaction to agendas never set by myself, always waiting for some other cunt to get off the throne of my own mind. i’m my own man now. (turns off sRGB mode on my monitor)
one thing i think would be so cool is to take a bunch of rookie stg players, put them in a room with a totally sight-unseen newly developed score attack STG with no instruction, with maybe a small prize for the sake of focus. i’d love to see the sliding scale of survival-vs-scoring and competition-vs-cooperation in an environment like that, see people make breakthroughs and figure a game out together without someone just getting their phone and a wiki article
it’s an odd fate, really. slay the spire seems to have inspired a countless number of small teams to try their own twist, but at the same time…
slay the spire is really something close to a mathematically perfect game, and the nature of the subgenre means that you can’t actually deviate from its framework too much. no matter what you’re here to get a small deck that can do a lot of things with some sort of busted combo, and entire games can just become window-dressing around that if they’re allowed to. playing the game until it plays itself.
one signature feature of this game is the tokens that allow you to restart a turn with a refreshed hand, or reroll basically any menu. as a resourcehead, i enjoy this, and the flexibility is immediately appealing, but the utility of redoing a bungled turn vs rerolling artifacts for the right hand of exodia is really off

(drinking whisky and staring at the sunset) the new touhous these days look like vtubers but the new vtubers never look like touhous
ive been chewing over ufo50 again and i think what it really feels like is a collection of freeware/flash/etc (none of these are derogatory terms) games built for a post-freeware world/audience. that’s kind of a cool place to be and i would really like to be in on the action of a project like that.
i wonder how that could be structured in love2d.
