Have you ever heard the Roland MT-32 card version? Crazy that almost no one got to hear it that way back in the day.

I've had that on games from Amazon, but it happens at Walmart or any place with a decent return policy. Usually someone took the game out and then ran it through a laminator, then returned it to the store to get their money back. The stores don't usually x-ray them and the games are very light.

You are doing well promoting your game onto my timeline but there is no wishlist link in your bio 😞.

I had to watch you make that fresnel lens 3 times, it came out so beautiful looking.

That's Joe Rinaudo on his American Fotoplayer, which most people probably saw in this video

Speaking of 10000000, he actually does regret naming it that. There is a tip in "You have to build a Boat" that says not to name your game 10000000, I assume because it's too hard to Google.

I don't play much Monster Hunter, but I find your word choice interesting. To me, having to fight the same enemy more than once is the definition of grinding, while getting to see more of an exciting story is the opposite.

Maybe the issue is the story just isn't very good?

It's not exactly what you want but Connections Plus comes pretty close.

This is often cited as the reason why Police Squad! was cancelled in 1982 and they made the Naked Gun movies instead.

I'm starting a new job soon that's all node.js on the backend. I'm going to miss Ruby.

Thank you. Why did I have to scroll all the way to a down to a post with two likes for this?

The government did try to put him in jail, and 12 randomly selected people unanimously had reasonable doubt.

I got a Bissell multiclean upright after hating my Dyson for 10 years. Being able to use the wand without completely unwinding the cord was life changing.

Can't wait to try the demo in February, but your link just gives me a 404. Is this the right one: steamcommunity.com/app/1570840 ?

Starter packs have become more popular recently, and you are in a bunch of them. If you Google yourself and starter pack you will find some.

But then again bots are showing up too, so who knows.

I used to play Rivers of Light from Adventure Construction Set. The order you solve puzzles is kind of linear, though. Apparently it was influential enough that Todd Howard was aware of it.

I wouldn't call it a good game but it was trying to be the 80s RPG Maker

I prefer the top left one, very cute.

It's the inexorable math of capitalism. Fortnite makes 5 Billion a year, so any idea that has even a 1% chance of replacing it is worth throwing 50-100 million at.

It's easy to convince yourself your idea has a 1% chance of success, as opposed to 0.01%. Low numbers are hard.

Top right is Ashley from Wario Ware.
Bottom left is Carmen from Animal Crossing.
Vib Ribbon!
But who is on the top left?

I had to Google this and yeah, it turns out you swipe up and down on a touchscreen to shift into drive and reverse on a Model X. WTF.

Reminds me of Anton Yelchin's death due to the stupid electronic shifter in his jeep.

Don't underestimate the value of muscle memory.

I know lots of people who are in a different field than their degree, but don't regret it because it taught them valuable skills like communication, problem solving, etc.
