It's a privilege to finally trip on you, sir. Madam. Thingy.

Looking awesome!  Now it's time to FINISH IT! (So we can PLAY IT )

Really like this, both the concept and the visuals! I for one welcome our reptilian overlords. (Seriously though, I find that sort of conspiracy stuff incredibly intriguing and have included some of that material in my own adventure games)

Amazing animations! The pushing one looks particularly great. Must've took a while to get that much detail in there!

Looks fantastic! Interesting concept as well. Added to the wishlist!

I'll throw something in here so funnyboy044 doesn't feel alone on the stage.

In this episode, I try to do some work on Dysmaton but get utterly decimated by driver SNAFUs and Windows 10 system overhauls!

I'll be livestreaming work on Dysmaton Saturday, 3 PM EST! Come hang out! https://www.youtube.com/user/twiliteminotaur/live

I haven't seen such an option to turn the pop-up notifications for achievements off, but apparently the Steam users can turn off achievement notifications themself.

So generally speaking, would it be best to hide all Steam achievements due to spoilers?

In this episode, Silver Spook and Fitz discuss the possibility that reality is a simulation run by super-intelligent AI, the bogusness of IQ tests, surviving in the concrete jungle vs literal jungle, and embodied vs discorporate consciousness.

Come on, lighten up! Hey, somebody had to sell that Viagra and trading platforms! Sure the fuck wasn't Jeb!

In all serious though, as someone living in the U.S. and a person of color, fuck Nazis and fuck Trump!

There was one candidate we might've been slightly less worse-off under, but he got taken behind the woodshed.

Sanders? Maybe. He wanted to focus on infrastructure and American production too.
He might have pulled out of Syria. He was certainly going to ensure a better deal for Palestine.
I don't think anyone had a good solution to the China and national debt problems.
As an outsider, I think what the Democratic (socialist?) party did to him was pretty awful.
I wasn't replying to you directly, by the way. My post was a reply to Stupot's question.

To be fair, I don't think any candidate could've done much, because we're living under Neofeudalism (tm), not democracy.

Elections and governments and all that horse shit are dog-and-pony-shows to sell Ensure and bloated fruitless subprime college tuitions to Boomers and keep millennials dumping mute rage and data and eyeball time into tech-leviathans server-vaults while people who actually run the world go about running it.

Would've been nice to at least have someone who wasn't an incompetent fascist *oompa-loompa or a competent fascist vampire squid  at least as the puppethead of the United States, though. Bernie was a nice guy. Probably would've gotten steamrolled or assassinated or whatever, but would've been nice to say, "Hey, we had an actual nice guy pretending to be in charge for two days!"

(*oompa-loompa won)

Yeah, they've shot themselves in the foot. Been doing it for some time.

After seemingly infinite days of marketing / coding / suit brain, I've finally gotten to doing something actually creative! 

Here's a little backstory snippet, some world / character building for Dysmaton.  (Don't worry, no spoilers!)


    Micro-homesteading on the edge of the Floodlands, Wolf wasn't in the best of spots. Auto-trucks, autoplanes, there weren't shit-all left to do. Some deep-seated sense of libertarianism, installed by his Alex-Jones-loving lunatic of a father wouldn't allow himself to kick his last-season lumberjack-hipster boots up and collect UBI. "Drip-fed existence was another slower death. Once we're all lobotomized by their media, games, drugs, then the next step is the Fema Camps. Like herding cattle, mark my words."

   Wolf had been some kind of hot shit on the game circuit, before game development itself was automated and schools and universities were a cross between a social media flamewar and an MMORPG where your 'grades' were 'in-game achievements'. Subscribers in the five-figures, almost scraping by on pop-tart ad revenue and unbox-whoring the latest triple-A game. Last one he did was, "Democracy!" - a roguelike politics-sim where you played a citizen of your own country, and got to rage online over which candidate was more asinine, fascist, or in cahoots with evil countries. The results of "Democracy!" counted as actual votes, as voter turnout both to physical booths and mail-in had plummeted to less than 5%.

   "A Games Journalist", if there ever was a definition of a non-job, nine-to-ten odds you could find that in urban dictionary. A fan of the 'antediluvian' (pre-2000) classics, Wolf had worked the beat on Atari, went to every Apple II Lovers convention, had met and took gratuitous selfies with the very first zx-81 programmer. Then enter robo-journalism, and bye-bye mortgage qualification and adult-ish independent existence.

   Sitting in the boarded-up recesses of a mall that piped in a noxious mixture of stale Kalvin Klein scent, CNN, and fifty-year-old Michael Jackson tunes.  Nearly abandoned, save a few 70-year-olds with alzheimers and countless grandchildren, abandoned by their millennial parents for more globe-trotting and "career-dabbling".

   A Glamagle drone found him, even with his phone off, and GPS disabled. Wolf glanced at the octo-copter's glaring eye, the camera phones of an Asian tourist taking selfies with a Trump statue, and Wolf in the frame.

   I better not decide to go back into actual investigative journalism, or I'll be assassinated in seconds.

   He shouldered his way past a rack of "Russian Hacker" t-shirts in an empty Hot Topic and headed for the exit.
