You already know what modern internet Gnosticism looks like- its just homestuck!

having talked to some other players and now knowing that: 1. there is no day limit 2. once placed, a room will not appear in the room pool until the next day the game is quite enjoyable, but i think not giving players this info is a fatal flaw

worse, the puzzles arent very rewarding, as they seem to just all give items you can find elsewhere at random. after a while it just seems like rolling the dice to see if you get floorplan options that let you not softlock yourself. i rarely ran out of steps, but found myself softlocked constantly

one twitter post that will live in my head forever: "do linkedIn users realize they will one day die?"

the black eyed susan was going to be growing on the ground but i realized it would take ages to model and ink the stems and leaves, so i threw it up in the sky. its a 'black hole sun'

too much empty space though. think i might should also re-do some of those horizontal lines on the pyramid

what do R and S represent here?

it dosen't, but its one of those things where if i don't fix it, it will stay in the back of my mind and drive me up the wall!

(also, i realized i had messed up the dimensions on one of those cards! fixed it)
comment in response to post
something very, very strange about twins dying on a bifurcated mountain i keep going back and forth on if the 'dirty overlook' is APPLE and the sand bar has no card, or if the sand bar is APPLE and the dirty overlook is something else. I feel like it might be VICTORIA, but that's pure intuition

also the person who got into the cone map making no effort to take things seriously was annoying as well
comment in response to post
should learn how to manually 'draw' outlines with grease pencil, the outline modifier is so tempermental
comment in response to post
i must have changed camera dimensions while trying to get the outlines to behave and forgot to change it back, but the card template? its the exact same object that sits in front of the camera
comment in response to post
feels like the ALLGOOD one is incomplete, but im not sure what it needs. might re-do it so its more clear that the threads are threads and not just tubes
comment in response to post
reminds me- i should show you these, i was playing around with converting the playing cards to their tarot equivalents (though i couldn't find much correlation between the cards and the symbology in the classic smith-rider-waite deck, so i just sort of invented new designs wholesale)

Corruption of ‘peak’, but i dont know why the gif is of clarence thomas (?)
comment in response to post
the comic that image i posted comes from manages to do a thing where characters from 4 timelines communicate with each other at once, though it has a heavy meta-fictional bent to it that lets it sidestep a lot of the complications this should cause plorg.neocities.org/ppc/1797/

Would it get weird if you have two way communication between parties who are in contexts where time operates differently, or would it just be more of the ‘time passes relative to the observer’ odd behavior we already know about (relevant comic snippet)
comment in response to post
You could argue that time doesn’t even behave how we expect within our local context due to the various effects the context around an observer has on it (the classic ‘black hole orbiter’ example or just perception of time changing based on mood)

Even though i was one of the people to guess a correct password, it really felt like what worked and what didn’t was random The maze was worse though honestly

I fear we are all going to die drunk on schadenfreude

Its top tier when the writer is focused on comedy, they are best as a ‘will they wont they’ rom com style thing. But if the writer isnt funny then it does not work
comment in response to post
Probably its best to combine ‘saving rooms’ into the event flag setup, so assign each room an integer and have that recorded in the save file
comment in response to post
Depends on the game Is progress linear? If so, this can work. If progress is non linear it’s probably going to be harder to execute. Also, is there any way a player can softlock if reloading takes them out of a specific room?
comment in response to post
Right, if I remember correct from what i read online the king kong zoo was most infamous for its mistreated tigers. I guess that more or less confirms the coordinate for zoostation. (Though the ulysses connection eludes me)
comment in response to post
It looks functional but also overly convoluted. There is almost certainly a better way to do this. Try to use better variable names also, avoid ones that are just 2 letters

i like how the illustrator accidentally (?) made it so it looks like they are about to make out
