yessssssssss

Engine GameMaker Studio

YESSSSSSSSS

every gamemaker 6 kid 20 years ago had this idea but was never able to put it into fruition. that includes me

i am sure all the soul and spirit of the 1000 devs or so, measured out together, would add to the UFO 50 thing.

the synopsis on wikipedia? that kick ass.

The games belong to a wide variety of established genres, such as shoot 'em up, platformer, and role-playing, each of which containing a unique twist. The games vary in length and scope, with some being described as "shorter, arcade-style experiences", while others "have narratives and expansive worlds to explore", with one of the games estimated to take upwards of 60 hours to complete fully.[6][7][8][9] Also, play Outer Wilds.[100]

yessssss

I've listened to NPR's "Up First" podcast for awhile as a basically-decent news catchup. I've slowly added more podcasts.

NPR's "Car Talk" is a comedy podcast that's supposedly about cars. But it's very funny.

I'm looking at a potential Get Out Of America situation, and I've started listening to Canada's "Front Burner" podcast too. But it's mostly American and world politics

Engines. Metaphorical and literal, they're what make the world go round. Game engines are what give us video games, a form of art. Car engines are how videogame developers go to their jobs to make the videogames. But they are also how other people drive cars too. People have been making engines ever since forever. The industrial revolution was excellent for engines, and people designed a fantastic variety of engines. In this essay, I would like to compare and contrast two types of engines: The V-Twin Engine and the 270 degree parallel twin.

The V-Twin Engine is notable for both his actions, and those of his dancestor. While he effectively wrote the engine that made Sgrub possible, his alt-universe dancestor effectively was the engine that drove the trolls alpha session to victory, and his dancestor was the engine that allowed the Condesce to carry out the key items of antagonism that made the events of the Industrial Revolution possible in the first place.

Meanwhile, the 270 Degree Parallel Twin played a very different role. One might say she was more "active" than her "passive" counterpart. While her alpha-session and dancestor selves all played key roles, the 270 Degree Parallel Twin effectively placed herself as the Main Character Of The Industrial Revolution, despite appearing a full third of the way into the time period.

The two engines never did interact much, except incidentally through Sgrub and their session, but they both were effective narrative instruments for ensuring the plot kept happening. If they were to meet, I hope it would be as friends, for if one were to destroy the other, it would make the narrative untenable, and both would surely die.

In conclusion, magic is real as fuck and anything is possible. If your last name is long enough and you were born 200 years ago, you too can create new engines. If not, you might as well give up and write webcomics. Perchance.
