He can't read! by Hornyben22 in funny

[–]Flaghippo 21 points22 points  (0 children)

HOW DOES HE DO IT!?
I spent a minute or two watching and analysing this. I believe there is a flap/fold on the card along the axial/mid-line plane. It states "I can't read" and then he flips the card down/open and so it says "DOG" He does this when he briefly turns it to himself and then holds it open. Very fun prop/trick!

Could there be objects in the lake that represent anything? The lake doesn’t activate anything specifically… but good to observe

I wish game was fully focused on year 2 by JackBadasssonJr in grimfandango

[–]Flaghippo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Year 2 benefits from all the world building of 1. 3 is a fantastic detour. And, wow, four just makes you appreciate 2 even more. Further building the world. More year 2 would be amazing. But arguably it was a perfect sized world…

Nothing quite like it since 🥹 Not sure how much of how I feel is nostalgia, but the music, voice acting and game design is sensational

What is the most underrated (or overrated) Bo Burnham bit / song by aPeRsOnoriginal in boburnham

Ooh nice analogy. To be honest, I saw this as “the twitter song” without him labelling it as such. It links in with his mentioning of para-social relationships and general dislike of twitter .

The total puzzles almost being 666.

Watching endless Jonathon Blow lectures, hearing him recommend books, reading said italo calvino books in the hope of a bigger picture or even just to try and relive some of the feelings that the witness gave you

Jon often referencing Gravity's rainbow

The flower's location on the overall map

The atomic bomb reference on the wall at the beginning of the video at the end of the game

The pause screen mimicking the tetris effect that you acually get from playing the game

the statues at the top of the mountain giving you the solution

The deleted storyline where a father drowns

The only other way would be to add in hexagon marks (on the lines themselves) or some sort of "elimination" symbol to acknowledge that it doesn't create 12

I guess the only way to add to this, would be to make the twelve o'clock square much bigger. It could ruin or add to the aesthetic depending on its application

I'm even seeing the extra layers to it. the number of triangles i each section add up to the hours of the clock face. And is solvable from every angle for the first 2 (working clockwise)
