  1. Do you know who Ellsberg is without having to look him up? Please let me know, I'm checking to see how well-known this historical figure is before referencing him in a script

      It appears Daniel Ellsberg isn't as well-known as I thought. I'll probably reference Snowden instead. Thanks everyone!

      It could also be because we're not smart.

  2. Congrats on turning 2, d4mo! Thanks for buying me CS:GO all those years ago

      Yet somehow he was still older then your average teammate on voicechat

      Age is a social construct anyways

  3. I had to generate a 16-team tournament for a business eSports class, and I named all the teams after SPUFers! https://challonge.com/2h6nvw58 (Don't blame me for how you placed, blame my nickel.)

      I'm disappointed in myself for doing so poorly. It's probably because you cured my AIDS.

      Some of those names make me nostalgic for bigSPUF.

      It still screws with my mind how aabicus is actually the medic and the medic is actually some sort of dragon lizard.

      The outfit turned out so great! I finally got to bring Archimedes with me to a social event :D

  5. Looking for advice on the 1-minute trailer I made for my current game project (link included). Can you understand the gameplay even if you've never seen the game before?

      @Tails Thee Fox Good call! We swapped one scene out for a third-person shot to show what the game looks like while playing. :D (It's the scene at 0:24)

      Does it make sense if I suggest you need shorter clips? Each clip feels a little bit too long, giving one too much information rather than making them want more?

    4. aabicus

      aabicus

      Yeah, I can believe it. I used a premade song so the clips are synced to the rise and fall of the beat. Only afterwards did our sound guy tell me he wants to try making custom music for our trailers, so going forward we can make it faster and at whatever pace we want

  6. tomorrow I'm shoutcasting a tournament for a Vehicle Battle arena game! https://spuf.org/2018/05/17/friday-forzebreak-tournament-with-prizes/

  7. Post if you want me to name a Pokemon after you, offer available while supplies last

  8. https://strawpoll.com/zy6cd6a1 Would appreciate any opinions! My team is trying to name our game

      My personal suggestion was Brawlosseum, but the team didn’t go for it :P

       

      But I also suggested we go for an Osmosis Jones-style setting and call it Fightochondria so I don’t think they trust my suggestions anymore

  9. Giftapulted a level 100 Flying Guillotine and it went to an inventory bot :(

      That's fantastic! The lil' bugger's gonna die bleeding, and that's one less bot to worry about.

    3. TheOnlyGuyEver

      TheOnlyGuyEver

      Never Giftapult anything. A veteran like you should know this, Abby!

      Sorry TOGE, I wanted to believe :(

  10. If your strange Medigun heals a player who kills a bot, does your Assist kills counter go up?

    1. TheOnlyGuyEver

      TheOnlyGuyEver

      I would assume not.

      Nope.

      Reminds me a bit of inner worlds.

    2. aabicus

      aabicus

      Woah, thanks for showing this to me. It's got the same core mechanic! The plant-collecting concept was inspired by Miasmata, but now I've got a second title for my "_____ meets _____" elevator pitch I have to give in a week. 

    3. Gyokuyoutama

      Inner worlds is one of those 90's PC platformers which were common but which are largely forgotten as a genre.  Jack Jackrabbit was probably the most famous.  If you're interested in inner world it's actually been made freeware.

  12. Happy birthday XYTWO. Gone but not forgotten.

  13. I finished a new video game! Short little pixel platformer https://aabicus.itch.io/gamer-2

      Played. Is good considering your experience.

    2. aabicus

      Thanks! There are definitely bugs and things that could've been better, but I'm learning new things with every project

  14. My GIFs have broken one million views! Feels good, man.

      It has a black guy with a cosmetic that gives him dreads, isn't that close enough?

  19. Finally finished all the coding for my next video game. Now just waiting for my friend to finish the soundtrack

      TheOnlyGuyEver

      A soundtrack this time? Sounds rad, I wanna see it when it's done.

  20. Just found the best flair on r/overwatch: https://gyazo.com/9b5aa20f52dd630be060206efb028720

  21. If I get 20 kills with any weapon as any non-Medic class I get 2 basic implants next time I launch the game, lets see Corv's Auraxiums do that

    1. Medic
    2. A 1970 Corvette

      A 1970 Corvette

      Make sure to download the update first, there's a bunch of spicy new implants that have been added and they're all pretty neat.

    3. aabicus

      aabicus

      Ooooh sweet. I haven't completed the basic directives for any non-medic class, I can get 8 implants for free
