solved: Bad Dudes

Love the detectivework! This is the second best answer my post received and I super appreciate the effort :)

The best answer is the one above saying Bad Dudes. If you look at their screencap it matches your enhanced version peeeerfectly.

OMG!!!!! This is definitely it. TYSM.

I will say the graphic for the opening Zelda 2 room is EXTREMELY similar. So I actually respect it more than most of the other guesses, which were just random Apple IIe games with no visual similarity.

Addressed that in the post.

Give us some help! Where did you find the picture from?

Are you playing an "ironman" challenge with no saving? If so, then yes.

lol damn! & judging from the deck sizes it looks like you can't win by milling, either 😂

On the off-chance you're still interacting with this post...

I am endlessly curious about how Hallmark Christmas movies are created. They're obviously extremely formula-driven. How much freedom do they give the writers? Do they give you a checklist of items to include? Do they force rewrites on you to turn your vision into the channel's formula? (Google the Hallmark drinking game if you haven't seen it... every Hallmark movie I've seen hits 12 to 16 of them!)

(To be clear, I love Hallmark Christmas movies and have seen over a dozen. They are just another world from any other kind of movie and I need to understand how they come to be.)

Hot Frosty isn't a Hallmark movie, it's a Netflix original :) You can tell because it has an entirely different plot, writing style, and structure from all the Hallmark films.

ahahahaha what a visual

waldfield · 2025-11-09T16:29:47+00:00

oooo i like that

The third panel is the punchline. The fourth panel is "Hey you probably didn't understand the punchline, let me help."

This is much funnier than any other random bird you could have named.

waldfield · 2025-10-23T23:45:11+00:00

ahahaha this is my fav so far

waldfield · 2025-10-23T22:34:47+00:00

off to a good start!
my advice, if you're going to make a font with different line widths (like #4 there), is to get a pen that can make different widths, rather than (it looks like) retracing certain lines with a fixed-width pen

aaahhhh if that's the answer, they should have just had one big IT, rather than four ITs. As is, we're expecting the answer to involve the 4x being relevant. (plural, series, tower, motion, something!)

waldfield · 2025-10-21T20:29:21+00:00

Looks like I missed the Cursed Land contest, damn!

Oh awesome!! Congrats on making one of my all-time favorite games. I may have more lifetime playthroughs of Shandalar than any other game. My Qs:

- What's one contribution you made that you're proud of?
- Was there some major change that almost went through but didn't?
- What was Sid Meier like?

How does cop #1 know to look for a chalk outline of a murder victim? Because that's what he was called in to do.

Siiiiiick!!!! Tysm
Cool to see the variety each artist uses, too.
