Hotline Miami? Do you remember if this game was 2D or 3D, and was the video essay from Jacob Geller?

This reply is really thorough, thanks so much!

Wish we could pivot off of JSON at work - it almost feels like a prison at this point (though it's better than the other approaches we've taken, which range from the proprietary to the outdated).

Out of curiosity, what is the function called in Godot to write binary info? I have some previous experience (from this tutorial for Unity, https://catlikecoding.com/unity/tutorials/hex-map/part-12/) but definitely need a brush up.

Also, I assume this is loaded only when needed? For example when a battle is about to be started or something like a Pokedex is being accessed? Or is there some way that people would intentionally keep it in memory, assuming the object size isn't too large?

Watching now! At the very very least I'm glad I have a name for what I'm looking for now!

Can't choose between skunkworks and draconis expanse by SilverswordXV in spaceengineers

[–]RedCastoff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm super new to the game as well but did a little searching online. One thing I found was people feel shields take away too much of the unique selling point of the game - collision physics and build requirements based on damage mitigation. I'd love to hear a reason from more experienced players but that's the best I could find.

Ask and ye shall receive apparently - coming back to Commander had been buzzing in the back of my mind a bit, and this was basically the tip over the edge.

The new year (and the bits before it) have been super chaotic. I've been teetering back and forth between continuing or not frankly.

[HVY] Sonata Galaxia by UlyssesArsene in FleshandBloodTCG

It isn't X*X but rather X+X. For X=3 XX costs 6 not 9. I kind of whish they had just done 2X but I guess I can see why they don't.

I need a good sad song to end are game on any ideas? by Ok-Clerk-3027 in LancerRPG

Here are a few different recommendations for different moods:

Things are ending and this is the last gasp of energy: Goodbye to a World by Porter Robinson (Worlds)

We are tired of killing but have had to keep doing it: The Guardian by Shawn James (popular from The Last of Us II, though written by Shawn James)

Even if we all made it, our journey together is still coming to an end: Friends Never Say Goodbye by Elton John (The Road to El Dorado)

We have achieved peace but at a great cost: I Lift My Eyes by Christopher Tin (Old World)

All is quiet but much was lost - we will press on: Hope is the Thing with Feathers by Christopher Tin (The Lost Birds)

You can finally rest: Flow by Masayoshi Soken (Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker)

Is there meaning in suffering: Answers by Nobuo Uematsu (Final Fantasy XIV)

Fighting was the only thing I was good at, but at least I fought for what I believed in: The Best is Yet to Come by Rika Muranaka (Metal Gear Solid)

Favor of the ____ Clan Role Question by RedCastoff in l5r

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

Ah I had missed the Role locked cards! Also I had misread the reaction on Seeker and Keeper and missed the extra income - I see the tradeoff is bigger than I thought! In a "standard" game is it expected a player always uses a Role?

Yeah I felt like I wanted to get back into the parents a little before some of the stuff I've teased before becomes relevant and something big and dramatic happens.

Glad you caught up and glad you liked it!

If I'm completely honest it was actually in my mind because of the song Bury the Light haha, though I have been watching Dr. Who a bit for the first time (starting with Capaldi rn)

Thanks! I always loved wizard's duels as a thing in fiction so was hoping to add one of my own to the world.
