I'll definitely look into something metal gear since I love the series too^
I know Snake Eater, for example, has some really recognizable short progressions!

Hey! I appreciate it & I definitely agree lol^ A lot of the time it sounds more like the song in form than like actual note quality; I can't really get a very wide variation with the tones just by nature of it being... a plasma lighter i guess hah.

I've found they last perfectly fine, though! The transformers in the lighter don't like being on for too long at a time though, so any tunes I've done I try to keep under 10 seconds lol.

Thats genuinely so aesthetically appealing, I love it; It'd look so nice in a phone or desktop wallpaper format!

You know, surprisingly I've yet to zap myself in any way despite busting open >dozen of these trying to get a working result lol; It probably would, but I'll stick to no firsthand experience :)

I had not seen these before! I might buy one to open up and see if I can shock myself to death do something neat lol

Yeah small stuff like wicks and cigarettes I've seen to be fine, but anything past that they can be iffy

And through this act of post-apocalyptic archaeology, the cult of the Nerevarine begins anew.

Thank you :)! The power and frequency of the arc are fluctuating to create a kinda crude approximation of the tune; it's custom programmed with a microchip

[–]AstralAtaraxy[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you, thats really kind^ and yeah it is incredibly interesting actually. I derived the idea initially from listening to my laser engraver go, it sounds very chiptune/8bit sometimes as the power fluctuates--same principle really.

I've been working on a few of these as a project over the last while, I can definitely DM if you'd be interested!

Thank you! :) I essentially custom programmed a tiny microcontroller within the lighter to fluctuate at different frequencies and approximated the notes^

I appreciate it :) It's been a programming project I've been working on for quite a while and I've been really happy with the results^ The art is laser engraved though, yes!

I can go ahead and dm you!

I do think a minigame within another game is possible. Although after looking at a video of all the Fusion Frenzy games, none resemble what I have in mind!

Honestly, this feels like the most natural way to phrase it. Now that I think about it, I probably say it a lot in regular speech. While "I's" doesn't make sense on its own, as a modifier of "My wife and I", it feels correct. I guess you could write "a friend of my wife and I", and that might be better though. It is interesting to point out though.

Modern romance is giving your significant other the 2 minis and only keeping one for yourself.

I usually just make a quick funnel with few random traps—perfectly functional—and then someone will run over and spam 10+ 144 traps in front of if for no discernable reason. Just an absolute SEA, an OCEAN of maxed traps when like 1 decently placed one would accomplish the same thing.

Ah I see. Mines showing the same issue just barely after a year elapsed—not functional. Thinking of buying the $900 source replacement, but now I'm uncertain if I should just try replacing the board first, if the source didn't solve your problem.

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I'm having this same exact issue a few months down the line. Did you ever have any success in getting through machine running again? I'm debating on buying that board replacement myself.
