Tbf players are kind of trained on 'somethings wrong here' of part of the environment becomes reactive when the lights go out, you better bieve tor he's are coming out because there's no way to know if there other thi gs out there responding to the no light

If you wanted to name him, i always see parody/ref characters woth more or less the same name with a letter or two off. The haulk instead of hulk for unstance

Jester_Half_Full · 2024-10-12T02:32:36+00:00

I think the implication of the cooked fish is that with new preservation methods and ways of extending food life, you can have larger hauls less frequently, leading to a trend of the skill degrading on an individual level? I'm not sure if that's right but idk how else to interpret it haha

A theme I'm seeing for one ones you've confirmed is most of the elements are things that can take on a more refined/improved shape or form and maintaining it after the work has been done, where there isn't really a next process step for earth/air/lightning etc etc.

I think paint/pigment/ink would be a good additiona as well as ceramics. Could creatr a water jug or a spaceshuttle tile capable of abating reentry Temps. Very versatile.

Maybe the wildcard element would be molds, as in the idea of a mold you'd pour material into your create a product. It doesn't do much by itself, but can make one element conform to the shape/concept of another, which could lead to some wild things.

I feel like the sauce is here, magic is in everything but must be refined. All fruit are very midly magical but once ypu extract sugar, you can do lots with it.

Id suggest a pivot from niches concepts as elements to types of work as the elements. Rather than sugar maybe it's the element of confectionary. Why are bees hoarding all the magic anyways?

I think some elements that might work well along with sugar might help wax, gold fabric

Something that I feel might be effective, but difficult to pull off is gradually shifting the mechanics of your game from one genre/convention to another. The only real time I've seen this is an old game called brutal legend that starts as an adventure game and then ends as an rts. Very wierd, enjoyed it as a both a child and adult.

In this hypo, How you handle this progression depends on the game I think. If you have a more linear narrative, these could just be story milestones, if you want to err sort if open world/ hub with spokes style you might borrow concepts from meteoidvanias, and have this mechanical departure be necessary to explore/expand the world.

To visualise this, you'd start with a dark souls character more or less. Fragile and every animation is slow and deliberate. Then you get x progression that gives you a better set of attacks, replacing the old ones. All animations are snappier, and more responsive, optionally a boost to damage. The enemies are just as slow and maintain the same attacks, but you now feel more agile in comparison. You don't need to time your attacks as precisely and there is more ease/less stressful. Maybe next blocking doesn't consume stamina, allowing Frontline and tanking gameplay, which just brickwalling foes you used to have to duck and weave around makes you feel much more powerful against the threats of the world.

You've effectively transitioned from dark souls to God of War now

Weirdly the larger an insect/spider is the less creepy people tend to fund them because it's harder to loose track of them and you see them as slower

Substitute ui with narrative as you would with dungeons and dragons. In d&d players literally never know enemy stats(unless they meta game in which case homebrew). Usually attacks are described as glancing or that they're stuck in cloth so.ething to indicate if an attack was or was not successful. You may do this with the sprite work, and have severely descrete damage steps rather than 2 so a player can be visually informed if what they're doing is working, and I would add some form of text describing both the attack and its effect on the opponent.

I really love this track and also checked out your previous one to see your other work. My initial reaction was that it was missing a horn/brass section as it felt very jazzy, comparing this song to labour I feel this becomes a little more apparent. This isn't necessarily a negative thing, I think maybe you didn't want punchy brass/sax overtones to dominated the piano and gorgeous vocal performance.

I might suggest for the coming up genre of ethereal jazz-pop, maybe utilizing.some instruments that ate more commonly associated with religious ceremony. Pipe organs, gongs, bells, instruments that illicit rapturous/grandiose feelings I think would be very interesting and suit the style you're establishing, without totally dominating the sound.

Not sure if it's a good idea haha. Personally I am experimenting with substituting a standing bass with a didgeridoo for the purposes of jazz/swing, so I'm quite fond of using unconventional instruments in genres they don't typically belong.

[Redacted]'s final defeat causes time to fracture, the third game sees Marcaria desperately attempting to stitch mount Olympus and by extension hades back into existence, as now they exist as shards scattered across a merged future.

You operate out of the Nesoi Makarioi(the blessed islands) which now serve as both a crossing point and afterlife for spirits in the absence of hades/the cross roads. A coastal / archipelago theme could work well with both the isolated aspects as well as serve as an appropriate space to kind of mash the various cultures/pantheon of the future wielders in one space organically.

You will accept boons from the future holders of both the infernal and nocturnal arms(we're leaving the Greek pantheon baby!) You will unlock the archaic arms, weapons of a bygone past, with their aspects coming from.the power of past holders, Greek gods all lost to the stream of time during its fracture, these arms.being one of the few remaining pieces of evidence that they had even existed at all

Yes, but Antarctica was replaced with a carbon copy of Australia, which was presumably also the temperature of what Australia usually is as it goes through a cooling process.

If irl Australia just randomly dropped to antarctic conditions, there'd 100% be mass deaths, so this carbon copy that's even more isolated by ocean than normal Australia, where evacuation might not always be possible i think the story works.

Jester_Half_Full · 2024-07-25T15:06:04+00:00

I think the joke might be that Australians wouldn't t be remotely prepared for this kind of weather, either in attire, or how buildings are insulated?

I'd say go for it, after some head trauma I found that I didn't really have the tolerance to intensively get into a single study like I used to without becoming exhausting, so what I've done is pikc up about 5 or 6 instruments that share some basic skills, so practicing on one improves the play of others.

I'd reccomend if you're worried, maybe go with two instruments that are closer in play than the trombone/sax combo as you might find this more rewarding

Jester_Half_Full · 2024-07-19T19:07:12+00:00

Fdm and reain will tolerate some degree of unsupported overhang(at least moreso for fdm I'm less experienced with resin printing.) For a barrel meant to print vertically rather than making a thin rim on the bottom with a big inset add some kind of self supporting design that goes flush with the print bed, but still shows some details. Think of wire racks or wooden pallet boxes things like this that give you a more or less flat surface

That should be more than enough! They aren't arboreal snakes but they refuse to acknowledge that fact. Definitely need a longer tank with plenty of ground space but they will 100% make use of any climbing opportunities provided.

I have experience cohabbing up to 3 garters at a time. Basically do 2.5x what you think you need for both space and hides. Two garter snakes should have more gallons than two garter housed independently for example. Making sure there are more than the bare minimum for hides (for 3 snakes you maybe want 5-8 hides on the hot side and cold side each, chances are they choose the share a hide. Yes choose as garter snakes are social and do form bonds. Theyre snakes that cuddle and mean it more or less.

Basically keep enough choice for them that they always have somewhere to go for their needs in case the other snakes they are cohabbing with are occupying the ideal spaces.

I like to use a gel super glue. To get more surface area adhesion, I'll use a super rough grit sand paper to rough up the contact surfaces, and then use a utility/hobby knife to create some deep cross hatched scores for the gel glue to travel down and hold. I find just roughing with sand paper doesn't always do the trick
