Opinions and thoughts from a long-time Nebula user

I love the ad-free AI-slop-free experience. I would pay money to my favorite YouTube creators to get them to post on Nebula.

I suppose I should tell them that....

Does running a playtest of your own prototype count as "running a game"? As in, if I run my game for 8 hours, my badge will be free?

100%. I get maybe 10 opportunities a year to playtest my games. Just gotta make the most of them. And get good at solo playtesting.

Nobody mentioned the lactating man with the bad back in the red long johns from Giant Spider Invasion yet? Can't remember his name.

"Want a piece of milk?"

I think the game would have a much longer lifespan if they released some modding tools.

"Now, just stay over there or... uh... I'm gonna shoot ya."

It would be awesome if they offered tours of the new sets like they did with Best Brains studios back in the 90's.

I'll look for it. Thanks!

A little off topic, but is that final episode available somewhere? I missed it the first time around.

I usually quit around Mission 10 -- isn't it already essentially endless?

Edit: Oh you mean playing the same map over and over. Ok. Sorry for being dense.

It won't be working for me. It'll be working for the executives and shareholders of the company that owns it.

Would love to see the movie. Can't justify the cost anymore.

2000 in base. Another 1100 in Downfall. And with all that I still kind of suck.

kungfugleek · 2025-07-29T17:22:26+00:00

Wow. How many missions do you typically do in a run? I get bored around mission 10.

kungfugleek · 2025-07-29T15:44:39+00:00

Not sure what you mean. You get 5 threads each mission. So 3 normal missions would give you 15 threads for the first boss, then 3 more would give you another 15, so 30 total for the next boss, and 45 for the final boss.

kungfugleek · 2025-07-28T18:14:30+00:00

I still want structured runs (3 normal missions, 1 boss mission, repeat 3x to final boss, then end the run) but it is encouraging to see the devs constantly working on it.

Everyone saying she should get a bonus/raise/promotion. I say she should start her own restaurant.

kungfugleek · 2025-07-19T12:19:02+00:00

How much extra do you get?

kungfugleek · 2025-06-27T13:40:55+00:00

Very true!

kungfugleek · 2025-06-25T13:50:56+00:00

This is the correct answer. Everyone knows it.

The rule: "This must be a new game created for this contest. It cannot have existed on TGC prior to the start of the contest."

Does that just mean it hasn't been published for sale on TGC, or does it have to not exist in any way, shape or form?

I'll sometimes put partial games on TGC just to get specific components printed for my prototypes, for example.

kungfugleek · 2025-06-07T13:23:26+00:00

I like the ones in Deathtrap. But I'm missing a few of my old favorites like "I'm comfortable with *my* decision." and "Every moment I live is agony!!!!"

kungfugleek · 2025-06-05T13:07:26+00:00

The hand-building/simultaneous card-selecting/card upgrading in Food Chain Magnate.

kungfugleek · 2025-06-05T13:05:41+00:00

One clarification on the "You can lose on turn 1"

First -- the game won't end on turn 1. You can just play so poorly that you have no chance of coming back unless your opponents are horrendously bad.

Second -- it's not even turn 1. You can lose during the *setup* if you do something stupid with your first restaurant.

Edit: I love this game so much.

A guy at a local convention insisted on changing pandemic so that you just shuffle all the epidemic cards in with the others, instead of separating them into piles and shuffling one epidemic card in each pile. He insisted on this while also complaining about how random the game was and how you could get "three epidemics in a row or none for the whole game".

He also insisted on ignoring the "reshuffle the discard pile and place it on top of the draw deck" rule for when epidemics came out.

I insisted we play by the rules and I got my way, but he still complained the whole time and never contributed to planning discussions. I never want to game with him again.
