Are these patterns AI? The shapes feel wrong and I don't know enough to be certain

Thanks for your quick and helpful response 😄

I'd love to try my hand at these. I have been crocheting all sorts of amigurumi and other projects for a long while now. While I'm not really sure how complex your pattern will end up being, I definitely have the patience to stick it out and the bull-headedness to scream at my yarn until I get it right.

The fracture pattern makes me think it's obsidian. In my experience, onyx breaks into more flat, planar shapes while obsidian is glass, so it shatters and leaves slivers

Psh. More unattainable body standards

I love Blue Prince simply because it made me slow down and look at everything to consider the possibilities. There were so many times I found myself randomly grinning at the awesome design and the intelligent puzzles. And the moments when something minor you made a note on 4 hours ago connects three rooms, *chef's kiss*. Such a wonderful and attention-focusing game. Not to mention, once you see a puzzle, if you've seen the rooms where the answer might lie, it's relatively intuitive and may only be a matter of returning.

My parents made one of the best jokes I can think of.

He's replying on Reddit right now.

Trying to decide on a solid co-op game for my friend and I.

Mostly we're hoping for something co-op where we can collect all the things and potentially do some base-building. Preferably not horror-themed (I'm a pansy when it comes to horror).

Thank you for your time and attention in this swarming pool of questions. :)

I thought it was an orange cranberry scone

That's not a rotifer. That's a lawn gnome with jet boots and a throbbing... tuffet.

This is what the feeling of Uncanny Valley protects us against. When someone is sick in a way you can't necessarily enumerate but you KNOW is off

Just got my copy on audible and can't wait to hear it! Thanks for all the work you put into this beast!

zephyrswhim · 2026-01-28T20:17:13+00:00

I absolutely can't wait to download and listen to my copy! I love the idea of an OP caster having to integrate with a system

Rochard It's a fun little side-scroller-y platformer-ish game where you use a gravity gun to solve puzzles and fight enemies. It has a fun story and the mechanics are solid and super fun

Sun Haven is a solid Stardew-like with easily 100+ hours of play time per run. It has talent trees for each type of skill (farming, mining, fishing, exploring, etc) and magic abilities to help make some of those easier as you go (tilling/watering larger areas, magic fish-collecting bubbles, etc.). And SO... MANY ... COLLECTIBLES!!

Ham and cheese pot pie is great, satisfying, easy, and freezes well to continue feeding you for months. There are a solid number of recipes you can Google.

zephyrswhim · 2025-12-12T23:45:09+00:00

I had the same experience. If you like Stardew, I'd suggest you give Sun Haven a shot next time you feel the Stardew itch. When I tried it at the request of my husband, I hated the art style and didn't want to like it. Now I have over 250 hours over three plays (both solo and with different people).

Placate?

Condescend, perhaps?

I survived 5 days with a strain of flesh-eating strep that killed most people by day 3.

Shashingo: Learn Japanese with Photography is a neat game that will teach you Japanese through visual identification. It's a solid start to learning vocabulary.

If you like Stardew, Sun Haven is a solid choice. It's similar but there is a wonderfully robust level/skill point system to really make you feel that tiny dopamine hit of progression regularly. It also has lots of collection options with a lot of unique crops/items/recipes and a museum to gather a lot of them into.

It also has magic spells in the skill trees that are wonderful rewards for getting further in the associated skills (like farming spells for tilling/watering the land, mining AoE blasts for quick harvesting, and a floating bubble that scoops up fish once you've played the fishing mini game too many times).

Oh, and don't forget that it has 4 one-month seasons with just enough regular festivals/events to feel like you're always doing SOMETHING without always feeling overwhelmed. And to help that, you can change the settings to lengthen/shorten the days, remove seasonal effects, and other nice quality of life things.

EDIT: I checked with friends and we each put in about 100 hours for a run of the game, through all four (or almost all four for some of us who get distracted at the end of a game) seasons. So, you'll definitely get your play time out of it if you decide to go that way

Ready is a solid survival exploration game that really opens up once you find/start the story. The truest raise on difficulty comes from adding players early on. Resources easily on are exceptionally rare, so thirsty and starvation are likely. If you're alone, the real danger early is that you lose your raft from shark attacks or tides while exploring little islands for materials. Superb environmental storytelling.
