Fun little social experiment that's going around!

If you're going to do, like, a fifth or sixth solo playthrough, you might as well play around and push the limits of scale, which is what this game does best, is all I'm saying. Anyway, say hello to the Gigantimax form of Iron Heights.

Screenshot from Satisfactory taken in Photo Mode. An especially iron-rich section of the Northern Forest bordering the coastline has been built over with a massive five-story structure holding up rows and rows of refineries making Pure Iron Ingots, connected to no less than four train stations.

Nothing like tinkering around in the engine to see what can be remixed together into new boss concepts. Say hello to the (first drafts of the) Day 3, 4, and 5 bosses!

You might not be seeing them in their natural habitats for a while, but I've decided to give all the other bosses their first-draft movesets so that they're all ready to be fought, starting with the Day 2 bosses!

My #Griftlands #ThreeForAll mod is coming with 10 new boss characters! Here's their "first draft" appearances in-game! (Yes, they are remixes of other characters and animations, but that's #modding for you!)

Hypothesis: Working out in Ring Fit Adventure for the first time after a 3 week "break" will probably kick my butt

My #Griftlands #ThreeForAll mod is coming along nicely! The main story "wrapper" around the first day's sidequests is fully written, and a bunch of other functional and flavorful features have manifested!

Wanted to offer up some proof (both to others and myself) that I'm getting some work done on the Griftlands mod, so here's my recent git commit notes:
Changelog for a GitHub project showing updates to the Griftlands Three-For-All mod through the month of May, presented in reverse chronological order. Comments include: "Moreef dialogue, enabled party store" | "Moreef dialogue progress" | "Bar changes, helper changes, bones of Moreef quests" | "Intro tone indicators and custom living at bar" | "Spaces for tone indicators" | "Intro encounter full dialogue" | "Intro encounter progress"

Switching gears from writing fanfiction to... modding fanfiction, the #griftlands Three-For-All mod's coming along nicely! The first encounter is now fully written and playable on all five routes! (Not "done," but "playable!")
WIP Screenshot of modded Griftlands, showing dialogue history of the current scene. "I'm Sal. Bounty hunter from Murder Bay." "Rook. Spy for hire." "Smith! Kra'deshi about town." "(ahem) Excuse me..." Narrator: Oh, right, the bartender! They must have been waiting for a while to speak up. "If you're going to start making grand plans in my bar, I'd like to speak to you first. When you're ready." Narrator: You needed to figure out room and board anyway, so you might as well hear what he has to say.
