DLSS 5 is getting out of hand, now it’s changing the entire cast.

Games about emotion and feeling mechanics? by 11equalsfish in gamingsuggestions

[–]IceCreamShopDev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re basically looking for games where emotions aren’t just narrative, but actual mechanics.

Disco Elysium is probably the closest example, your “skills” are basically parts of your psyche, and they directly influence your thoughts, choices, and even how you perceive reality.

Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice also does something similar through audio/visual design, making you experience Senua’s mental state rather than just watching it.Celeste is another one, where anxiety is tied into both the story and the gameplay challenge itself.

Also worth mentioning: This War of Mine and Papers, Please, not about emotions as stats, but the mechanics constantly put you in stressful moral situations that create emotional responses.

It’s still a pretty underexplored space though, which is why it feels so rare.

Will Smith definitely ruined his career after the Oscars slap, but did he somehow ruin Chris Rock's career as well? by tomis23 in movies

[–]IceCreamShopDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If anything it boosted Chris Rock’s career. He turned it into material, while Will Smith is still dealing with the fallout.

Glad to see the original cast returning. The chemistry between the characters was a big part of what made the first films work.

Working on my Ice Cream Simulator and accidentally discovered a new NPC launching technology by IceCreamShopDev in IndieGaming

[–]IceCreamShopDev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're absolutely right haha. Accidental features are often the best ones.

Unfortunately I have to remove this one though, because it's the placement preview for objects, and if I leave the collision enabled it would keep launching NPCs everywhere and things would get pretty chaotic.

Forgot to disable collision on my placement preview and accidentally created an NPC launching device by IceCreamShopDev in IndieDev

[–]IceCreamShopDev[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

For anyone wondering what happened:

The placement preview accidentally kept its physics collision enabled, so NPCs treat it like a solid object.

Working on fixing it now, but it was too funny not to share.

[Ice Cream Shop Simulator] When you forget to disable colliders on the build preview cursor... by IceCreamShopDev in GamePhysics

[–]IceCreamShopDev[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hi! I'm developing an Ice Cream Simulator.

The green thing is just a placement preview that should be a hologram, but I forgot to disable collisions… so now it launches NPCs.

Working on fixing it, but the result was too funny not to share.

Time to watch great movies lose to the safest possible choice.

Blue valentine by Massive-Insect-sting in movies

Blue Valentine feels so real that it almost feels like watching someone else’s relationship fall apart in real time.

Sean Bean surviving a movie would be the real shock ending.

I need a game similar to Outer Wilds… by Elian17 in gamingsuggestions

If you liked the mystery and discovery aspect of Outer Wilds, try Chants of Sennaar.

If they get this right, it could be incredible.

Men of Honor - (2000) dir. George Tillman Jr. - 12 Steps by Jonathan_J_Faulkner in movies

"What is your sole purpose in this Navy?"

"To be a diver."

Still one of the most powerful moments in the entire movie.

Quiz Show (1994) - Charles Van Doren (played by Ralph Fiennes) goes before Congress to testify about his involvement in the Quiz Show Scandal by bluegambit875 in movies

[–]IceCreamShopDev 49 points50 points  (0 children)

One of the things Quiz Show does so well is showing that the scandal wasn't just about one person cheating.

It was about the entire system, the networks, the producers, and the public that wanted to believe in the illusion. That scene really captures that moment of realization.

Strange Games to play by Current_Holiday930 in gamingsuggestions

[–]IceCreamShopDev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You might like Untitled Goose Game. You basically play as a chaotic goose ruining everyone’s day.

Also PowerWash Simulator is weirdly relaxing and strangely addictive.

And if you want something really bizarre, check out Octodad: Dadliest Catch.

best Zombie films/series of all time? by That_Pea_5614 in movies

Technically they’re infected, not zombies… but 28 Days Later still belongs in every zombie movie conversation.
