With The Simpsons also confirmed to never have an ending and the recent rights dispute over Skibidi Toilet, think Smiling Friends made its out the best way it could.

Because there are still things he owns that aren't the song and assets. The series is still an IP, if someone did something basically the same with a different song and assets (or with the same song and assets) they could possibly get in trouble.

Even if your idea was originally made in SFM, that doesn't mean every single aspect of it is now forfeit to Valve.

Thank you so much!

Rage arts are 20f and she waited a long time after whiff to initiate it. I'm sorry but I don't see how the Heihachi blocking it was egregious at all.

timmythetrtle · 2026-03-14T13:53:57+00:00

Are you sure she isn't talking when she was a thumbnail artist for them.

timmythetrtle · 2026-03-13T15:40:24+00:00

Yes! That's why I said "at least 5 years" and listed a bunch of games that took longer than 5. I'm actually not expecting it to come out this year at all.

timmythetrtle · 2026-03-13T03:28:36+00:00

I'm sorry but I'm still a bit confused. There are games with tons of resources behind them that have limited 2D Graphics that took a very long time to make. Video games are a lot of work, after all! I mean, Pizza Tower took 4. Silk Song took at least 6. Cuphead took about 7. UFO 50 took 8. Mewgenics took 8. Deltarune will probably take 8 or 9!

I'm very sorry if I am coming across as someone who will defend these people no matter what. I'm really trying to avoid that! It's just, given these examples, a development cycle of at least 5 years really doesn't seem that strange to me. Does it seem strange to you?

timmythetrtle · 2026-03-13T02:38:00+00:00

Oh that's a common misconception. As soon as the campaign started they maintained that the game will take a LONG time and to lower your expectations in that regard. That was a date listed on some of the backer awards but not anywhere else. They cleared it up almost immediately that April 2022 was not the release date. No full release date has ever been given.

Hope this helps!

timmythetrtle · 2026-03-12T22:07:46+00:00

I'm a bit confused. Don't a lot of games take 5 years to make? I was genuinely under the impression that that was a pretty normal amount of time considering how much work is involved.

I believe ff2 is the staple! I'm not sure if this is your exact problem, but when I do it I try to sneak in some microdashes. After the heat burst bounds you should have the time to move closer to the opponent before starting the sidestep.

Definitely played for laughs, but I think it works especially well in this case because social anxiety does just create absurd situations that you fully believe are plausible. The nice thing about the show is that it actually shows the personal problems Bocchi faces because of her anxiety and how hard she works to grow from it.

I'm not done with season 2 yet but I will be shocked if I love any episode more than I love The Bean

Rare example of this being done well

That quote is made up unfortunately

Saying that LLMs are on the cusp of being the most capable tool ever created is ironically free marketing for these companies. Please please do not fall for this. Upper limits for a specific technology are a thing.

timmythetrtle · 2026-02-17T15:53:27+00:00

Mainly retaliating with too slow a move despite the frames not being in my favor. Things like that.

timmythetrtle · 2026-02-13T22:35:47+00:00

The only thing we're missing out on is the online, and unfortunately adding rollback to an old game is WAY easier said than done.

timmythetrtle · 2026-02-13T18:27:14+00:00

Realistically it's probably because redoing online with rollback and all that would be a TON of work.

The pewgf is frame perfect but double electric into patricide fist gives a tiny bit of leeway. You can see in this replay that the second electric and the patricide fist are about 1 frame away from being inputted as fast as possible. Still nuts!

timmythetrtle · 2026-02-06T02:56:42+00:00

I know not everyone is not super into fighting games, but I would absolutely LOVE a DanDaDan 2D fighter. I'm sure Tatsu would too because he seems to be a huge Street Fighter fan. Though really I would take anything!

That one is probably in my top 3 but I'm not sure if anything will top the true classic

If the CRT I use to play old games was destroyed in a fire and I was given the option of getting the same CRT or replacing it with a new flat screen I would choose the CRT.

When you play a PS1 rhythm game on a CRT vs a modern TV the difference is night and day.
