yesss thank you, some people seem to think of genres as bordered nations, protecting and assaulting one another with some sort of fervent musical nationalism

Hope that genre can grow beyond a commercial-first classification system and into terminology with historical value, to trace back sonic lineages and foster literal familiarity

HELL YEAH!!!

There is so much to love here, deeply struck by both its style and substance. It's always so intoxicating to read about compelling people like these, intertwined in something beautiful, while a dreadful presence like God looms in the background.

624 Game Events Attended - 2 Non-Technical Questions Received

It's straight up scary when someone so clearly views your work as a shelf-stable product, or maybe a flatscreen TV; a technical artefact with specs to dissect and compare before they buy into it with their attention.

You formulated this ick beautifully, thank you for writing this.

Very much feeling the atomization of it all. It's difficult to find and keep a grasp of community when they seem to be so ever-shifting, it's like jumping into a moving elevator and on the very next floor everyone rushes out except for The Grabber and The Gamer who tries to argue about laser guns with me

But maybe this is also just an issue with me not reaching out enough so idk lol, I hope there can be the togetherness and momentum necessary to let beautiful games take root and grow into something grand, instead of endless live-service hero-based marvel writing room somehow-both-sexless-and-half-naked gacha neuro-psycho-tortureware

I am also Very fond of the Portal radio cube, thank you for the compelling words and insights into tile-based furry-queer erp

So many games feature combat that is so clearly and wholly unnecessary, sometimes even detracting from the rest of the game directly

I remember stardew valley pissing me off when I acquired my first sword to kill and kill and kill my way through the mines, and why the hell do I need to beat up cops in bomb rush cyberfunk when i could be styling on them instead?

Suffice to say I get the sentiment, thanks for the writing!

even if I have Atom Bomb on vinyl I have to agree, and it hurts, it hurts so much, but it hurts because it is true, and every GameCube Dreamcast Sega Seturn Epic DnB/Jungle Mix [5 Hours] I see makes it more true

I always wondered how I'd ever fight a license breach on something I made, if it would ever even come to that. Hire a lawyer? Complain somewhere? Idk but it all sounds like it'd either take a lot of time or money or both. How useful is a tool by and for capital, when there's an absence of said capital?

Much to think about...Much to consider...

Beautiful work, sometimes there's pictures and they gotta get out and that's a wonderful thing.

So glad to see this stated in such clear terms.

It's infuriating to see articles and people wax poetic about old forums and geocities as if they weren't hate-filled, data-selling, silicon valley-powered hellholes.

The web is so far past that point already, glitter GIFs are cool but so are decentralization efforts. Don't neglect the politics when engaging with the aesthetics fellas!!!

My favourite tool-test so far have been fractals, such a fun way to learn a program's quirks and limitations. My favourite by far has been HTML/CSS/JS though, since each language's role is so clearly stated by a div-based fractal (hierarchy, positioning and style, construction).

Thanks for reading!

Hi there! You have contacted the Visunov™ helpdesk.
I am Poppy, your virtual prisoner assistant! Are you experiencing issues in VisunovOS©?
I'll try my best to be of assistance to you!

So absolutely correct and true and real, the colonial/fascistic undercurrents of cozy-chique farmsloppa can never be understated.

Jumping and gleefully smiling at the opportunity to have a farming game kick my teeth in and make me cry, perhaps with a healthy dose of war, pestilence, and death to boot.

wow wow wow absolutely stunning!! Thank you for entrusting VisunovOS with your poem, it means the world to me.

Also, would it be okay if your poem is playable at my graduation show in July? As part of a collection of VisunovOS-made kinetic novels/zines/dreams/poems/rants. Perfectly okay if not of course!

thank you :))

Aw hell yeah that's great, thanks for the kind words!

Thank you so much! I'm glad this made for a delectable meal ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ )

Thank you ૮ ˆﻌˆ ა

Who needs ROT when you can wear a uniform?

Thanks for playing!

Thank you so much!

Thank you for the kind words!

[the fool] : yes

thank you for the kind words ^^

itske <3

extremely funny and well-written, tickled me greatly. Here's hoping for Kate to become a bit more adjusted and find herself a dream woman.

Absolutely adore this, socializing is inscrutable and I'm going to formulate and adhere to this tarot-based social-interaction deck-building system from now on

tysm!!

thankies!

The interaction! Hard to really pin down why but I think that revealing things and staving off the dark is an inherently pleasant process, it's also elegant in its simplicity and avoids slipping into tedium.

I'd have introduced more of a running narrative. I feel the fundamental idea has more than enough potential to serve a short story or explicit theme, but that's probably horribly out of scope ehe

sweet work! really lit up my afternoon :))

Thank you for the kind words!! I need a full game too... It'll be so awesomes

Thank you for the motivating words, I'll finish it!! rahhh!!!

Thank you for the kind words! Not actively working on it right now but I hope to get some time in between uni-work to wrap it up as intended ^^

Thanks for playing!

υ´ᴖ ﻌ ᴖ`υ

This is a really really sweet message thank you so much for playing!!!

I really want to continue working on this but just haven't had the time in combination with my studies,,,, but I'm very hopeful about it, it's definitely a game which I think should fully exist in some sorta way

Again thank you for sharing your thoughts, it helps keep me excited about this project and it's so very appreciated

Yayyy thank you for the kind words! Especially glad to hear the submerge-into-the-noise sentiment, I'm hoping to retain that in the final version ^^

Thanks for playing! Not sure when I'll pick development of this up again but I appreciate the kind words.

Thank you for the kinds words ^^

Not -intentionally- but I did watch the first season, so maybe subconsciously? Thanks for playing!

Really touching and beautifully put together
