Buy don't rent!

This was the most disappointing moment on your stream....

I got my Wii U copy! But I have to work!

I saw a gif of an enemy kicking a bomb back onto Link. So there's that as well!

Breath of the Wild stream was fantastic! So excited to get the game tomorrow. Link Breckon runs straight for the endgame castle and gets wrecked: https://clips.twitch.tv/ColorfulElegantConsoleDxCat

I can't really afford the whole shebang of both Switch and Zelda, so I think I'll settle for just getting the Wii U version. From comparison videos of the final versions it doesn't really look all that different (though I assume the resolution on the TV is different)

I think Wind Waker reuses one or two cloud particles for a whole bunch of effects, just with different color variations. I know Super Mario 3D World uses these kinds of mesh particles and I imagine it reuses it for many different effects. I think it's a common technique for most games.

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is fantastic! Originally saw @Argobot mention it on twitter, so yeah thanks so much for the recommendation, because I absolutely adore the show now. Also, I found a Matlock remix on youtube and the next recommended video was the latest IIT episode!

No, I meant listening in character, as in Mae eavesdropping. It's all text all the time. There is endless amount of dialogue reading in this.

I only played through the intro last night and strolled through town for just a bit, listening to townfolk chatting, and it is indeed adorable and beautiful so far.

I like The Leftovers a lot, but I was a person who loved the character drama of LOST, and this feels like Damon Lindelof hammering down on that aspect and basically saying "Forget about the mystery" at every turn. There's still some mystery and twists and magical realism, but he goes out of his way to signal to the audience that in the end it's what the characters do, and not how things became like this, that matters. I like that a lot, but it's probably not everyone's cup of tea, especially consider how bleak and nihilistic the drama can be at times. I enjoyed Season 1 myself but Season 2 is generally regarded as a much stronger season. Excited for the third and final season!

You mean our amazing Scandinavian cottage scared away the wolves. Dibs the chicken has had quite the life, already. Everytime I tried to put up a "dibs the chicken" sign a creeper snuck up on me and toblix and blew up his chicken coop. Luckily, he survived three of these and produced a baby dibs.

Me and @toblix have been building a sweet, Scandinavian Cottage outside the town. We have a wheat farm, porches and everything a Scandinavian person would want! We even have a chicken called @dibs the chicken and his baby chick dibs jr. There's a road with a sign just outside the center town's (inhumane) cow enclosure, just follow that windy road under the trees if you want to check out our Cottage! Of course as soon as we have placed our cottage in the idyllic, peaceful wilderness someone just built a gigantic castle right next to us! High-rises, amirite?

Yes! Yay! Look forward to it (and the actual new season of Twin Peaks, but whatever..)

Do it!

Woof, new Twin Peaks isn't far off now. It premieres in May? Are Chris and Jake still planning on doing a podcast around the new season? I, for one, absolutely *love* having a podcast to listen to as I watch it so I really hope you do.

It's DONE! Mr. Puffin in the Dark Castle Inspired by the episode title "Free Macintosh Warez", this is a spiritual sequel to the Macintosh game Dark Castle with mechanics loosely borrowed from Dark Souls (although in no way as tight-feeling) with an art style heavily inspired by Mike Mignola's comics art. Bear in mind this started as an art test, so I just designed/coded outwards from my starting point which was Mr. Puffin's sweet Mignola'esque shader. So in the end, after spending a ton of time on the art, there isn't much game to this. You can fight the zombies and they will eventually kill you. There is no reward for beating all the zombies (aside from being able to watch their ragdolls twitch around) I hope I can keep working on this in some form, because I really like the feel of it and the art. I could expand this into a single castle of Dark Souls lite gameplay thing. Tiny Puffin Souls! v0.03 - Z-targeting! v0.02 - Mac and Linux builds! - Particles for the candalebras Update jam_v02: Updated the death so it restarts the level automatically after a couple of seconds. AND you can quit using the "Escape" key, fittingly. I did a box art, tho.

Thanks everyone! Hope I can get all this new stuff implemented before Part 2 of the WizJam stream! @Ben X Oh man, you're right, I somehow managed to pick the exact angle where Mr. Puffin's leg blocks the sword from view.. It won't matter in the game, because you'll walk up to it and there'll be a "Press A to Pick Up Rusty Sword" or something. I guess I was too excited to share the Mr. Puffin's head tuck to notice I'd hidden the sword behind him.

I've been here since this was just Idle Thumbs: The Website. I'm here for the community and to listen to you guys in any way/shape/form you want to do this in! I'm happy you're not afraid to shake things up!

Thanks! Here's a swishy sword animation!

Nice!!

I'm building a room that is, at the moment, called "sword_room" Instant Environmental Storytelling Debris Generation:
