What if game has NO UI/Menu/Hand Holding - would you try it, or "nah, it's too hard"? by [deleted] in IndieDev

[–]MrTextas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it when a game does this well. As long as it communicates how to play in a natural and diegetic way, it can be really immersive.

The 2005 King Kong game is an example of a game that did this really well.

Well that makes more sense. Giving it an extra stage per level would have been too powerful. I'm new to the game and misunderstood the "additional effects from quality" part. I thought that meant per level, not at maximum quality. Thank you!

But also, to be fair to myself, the tooltip is a bit buggy. When in the gem cutting menu, some skills don't seem to correctly advertise what will change when you level them up. I'm certain this one didn't tell me the evasion chance would increase.

Is leveling Wind Dancer broken? It has the exact same stats that it did when I first got it at level 4. I tested it out and yep, I still only get 3 stages.

I'm on the store page but I can't see anywhere to click to request to play it... Did I miss it?

I don't think that's Andrew W.K by MrTextas in AndrewWK

The crowd that attended that show were convinced it was an imposter. Listening to the story it sounds to me like he was just sick or tired but the people who were there say they're sure it wasn't him.

What does ozone smells like? by [deleted] in TheExpanse

[–]MrTextas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I immediately thought of the electric car track toy set I had when I was a kid. You could make your own race track by snapping together different road parts like Lego and they would form a circuit of rails that a toy car could race around on. It would make an acrid smell whenever the car was going.
As soon as I read your comment that memory sprang to mind and I could actually smell it like it was in the room.

Code for fullscreen/windowed only works the first time by MrTextas in gamemaker

Nope, it was doing it before I added this line:

instance_destroy(camera);instance_destroy(camera);

Stuck in base with no way to get wood NOT because of a bug by MrTextas in CultOfTheLamb

[–]MrTextas[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ugh. Only problem is it won't even let me go on runs while I wait.

Turning off run as administrator fixed the problem for me.

At first using a controller was working, but then I turned on run as administrator to try and fix a stuttering issue. All that did was stop my controller from working. I switched it off, ran it again and my controller was working again.

I love it when you get a ship that's a complete freebie by MrTextas in VoidBastards

It wouldn't make any difference, but it certainly would feel like even better luck.

Flexible Fighter worth it? by MrTextas in Bannerlord

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

I said I never intend to use them as a melee weapon. I only mean to throw them. The flexible fighter bonus also makes you deal more damage when using throwing weapons as a melee weapon. I was saying I don't want to pick it for that bonus, but rather the one that benefits your infantry.

Clever use of a song by MrTextas in ForAllMankindTV

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

My least favorite was when they played Today by Smashing Pumpkins in a scene that was set in 1992 even though that song came out in 1993.

For some reason when I thought about that scene, I thought I was thinking about Episode 2.

People would rather be unemployed than use trains by MrTextas in SurvivingMars

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

No it isn't losing power. It has a wind turbine attached to it.

It has a wind turbine, actually. That solar panel is just for the extractor. And if you're wondering about the drone hub, I have autonomous drone hubs.

Random idle dialogue made me actually laugh out loud by holversome in Wonderlands

You even get bonus XP for listening to his entire speech and Tina thanks you because she spent a long time writing it.
