TheOnlyGuyEver

You ever wake up from a dream with a prominent specific element, and you struggle to remember if that element had popped up across several of your recent dreams, or if it was just one really long dream you just had?

Good luck on your rock-pissing, dude.

Didnt we just had a hyper-realistic CGI mice detective movie?

I apologize for plugging another one of my levels in here, but I fuckin gotta. This level may be my magnum opus when it comes to ingenuity. At least for now.

Some background: I was working on my new Kaizo level, listening to the Tropical Freeze soundtrack. Blurry Flurry came on and it made me start thinking of a level (not just for Mario Maker, just for a platforming game in general), where you ascend some tower that's being bombarded while the camera kind of sways left and right. Then focusing on that swaying idea made me eventually think of a level where you're instead inside a parachuting crate that's being blasted, and you can see where I went from there. Making the parachute pen itself was tricky, as I had to utilize some shenanigans involving how big enemies sit on half tiles, so that the stumps wouldn't be too close and knock into each other and make a Newton Balls effect, but it turned out flawless.
 
The boss setup was a glorious pain in the ass:
 
Anyhow yeah, the boss setup took fuckin hours but I'm really glad it works perfectly and I might just revisit it in the future with a whole level built around that one setup, cause it really is so damn cool.

I am about to tell you guys some real, true shit, okay?
 
Old Trapper beef jerky is the best beef jerky I have ever had in my fucking life. I GUARANTEE you that if you try it, you will fucking love it. I'm telling you this as a sincere promise. Now I know there are a lotta people out there who hate beef jerky because they've only ever had Jack Link's and Jack Link's is absolute shit and so you never want to eat beef jerky again. But like I said, I PROMISE you that this shit will change your life. Jack Link's is like eating a fucking tire, it's like taking one of those scrap pieces of tire you see on the highway and just biting into it and chewing on it, and that goes for the flavor as well. Old Trapper beef jerky is firm but not tough, and it's tender, not chewy. It has a rich smokey flavor that isn't bogged down by too many spices for its own good, and it tastes and feels like actual fucking dried meat, not a leather suitcase. It's the best beef jerky on the face of the Earth.

It's definitely not suited for it, but it's not impossible. I played quite a few good ones in MM1, and with all the new sound effects and objects there's more potential for creepy scary stuff than ever. If you wanna check out my shit, my ID is WFX-PQ5-15G. I make many types of levels.
 
When you do get around to making something, I'd like to check it out! Also that boss fight is amazing and terrifying.

So Meat Fortress is pretty frickin fun. (New gamemode in Hotdogs, Horseshoes, and Handgrenades VR)
Rocket Jumping is amazing and playing around with the Team's weapons is really neat.
 

I went out into the woods behind the house today to gather more seeds, as I do a couple times each year. They take a long time to grow, but it's summer now, so if any time is the time, it's now, when things are growing like mad. The seeds are very dangerous, but very beautiful, bright red and dark black. Just don't touch your eyes, or especially your mouth, before washing your hands real good.
 
I was out for maybe an hour before the inescapable mosquitoes, at that time of day, made me decide to say "fuck it" and instead of picking all the seeds there, I took the pods whole, gathered them up, navigated the massive fucking sea or ferns between the woods and the fence, and tossed them over, before going back to get the rest of them. The growth of summer made getting to and from the fence a real puzzle.
 
Anyhow, I've been gathering these seeds for a couple years to fill a vase with them. The current "vase-shaped" vase I use is a placeholder for the straight cylindrical vase I actually want. I estimate, if I were to dump all the seeds from the placeholder to a cylindrical one, it'd be a third full. Once it is completely full, however long that takes, I will top it off by sticking two cardinal feathers in the top, to keep in theme with the red and black of the seeds. Then, I finally rest, and watch the sun rise on a grateful universe.

A fun edit of the previous post to tide you over until I finish a big (BIG) drawing I'm working on:

 
Somehow this look suits her. I won't lie, it's something I've had in the back of my head for some reason for a while now. Also, that helmet is a fun challenge to draw.

Did I ever mention that I'm learning to play the Violin?

I had two dreams today.
 
The first I was watching a hostage situation. This guy was pointing his gun at a woman and demanding that the cops stood away from him.
Then this one cop just holsters his gun, walks to the guy and gives him an one finger poke of doom on the guy.
Like, it was a Fist of the North Star level poke, his finger just goes into the guy's forehead.
The guy then lets go of the hostage, puts both hands on his forehead and goes "Oh my head" with a sobbing voice and fucking drops dead on the spot.
For some reason I found this so funny that I woke up laughing. I'm still laughing when I remember about the guy going "my head" then dying. Goddamn.
 
The second dream I was in a car trip to.... Japan.
Aside the fact that Japan is in the other side of the globe AND its an entire day by plane to get there, we reached "Japan" in about 3 hours by car.
Turns out Japan was just this massive furniture and appliances store.
And for some reason, I got back home right after the 3 hour trip, then immediately went back to "Japan". Apparently I had forgotten something. Hell if I know.
Well, I enter the store and I was looking for a water filter. The store was REALLY big and the shelves went up into infinity.
The Water Filters had weird alien designs, so I gave up trying to find one and started to look at stoves.
They were also weird, but they all looked like actual stoves. Some were short, others were too thin. There was one that was just a single burner.
I found a small object that looked like a pan flute, but each 'tube' was a lighter that gave a different flame. One of the tubes didnt gave flames, but a spray like a fire extinguisher.
Then there were these two asshole kids hitting people with some sort of retractable metal pole.
I warned them to not dare, but they hit me anyway, so I drove my fist into the face of one of them.

Last night I had a really fucking LONG dream. Like a dream that lasted several dream days. Which wouldn't be so bad if the entire dream weren't just me going to school normally. And I was aware the whole time, so I just like "oh my fuckin god let me wake up already"

I feel like you're going to punch me in the arm now.

How to Doom Your Game

1. Politics

Ehh, I don't think it meshes very well.

A wasp is looking at you:

Yesterday I went to a pinball festival, it was neat. They had hundreds of machines ranging from ones from the 1950s that were fully electro-mechanical where you had to manually cycle the ball into the plunger to new ones that have color displays and other cool shit. A lot of the older ones have disclaimers all over them saying "FOR AMUSEMENT ONLY" and "A GAME OF SKILL" which I found out was because pinball machines were banned in a lot of cities in the 50s through the 70s because politicians considered them gambling machines... and to be fair a few were.
 
Disappointed I never got to try out the Shrek machine because that one was always occupied.

Was gonna get on your ass for not having a variant of the bob copypasta, but I got to the very bottom and was relieved.
 
In the shared spirit of other ancient internet phenomenon and fads, take this:

Fucking masterpiece.
