Welcome, hello & chat. What's your pet situation? Have you done any cool drugs?

my friends and I once accidentally did a bunch of salvia once when someone tossed it on the fire pit thinking it was kindling, does that count as being cool and doing drugs?

(it was too dispersed to do much, though most of us did have brief, sudden salvia hallucinations, which is a bit of a terrifying experience if you don't know it's coming)

drugs don't make you cool, but i liked salvia. i didn't see hallucinations, just felt more rooted to the world, if that makes sense (extremely so)

I would play so I could legalize weed in every imaginary society I get involved in. That'd be my only goal.

Cities: Skyline is a video game where you run a city and one of the policy decisions is to legalize weed and it has literally no drawback lol

Drugs don't make me cool but they do make me less crazy which is great.

Salvia is bad and I will never touch that again. Wow was it ever not good for me.

I'm just :weedass:

I've only done it one other time than the firepit incident and it was a brief but intense trip, one of those where it feels like you and the guy who took it with you were under for like half an hour, just exploring the outer depths of the universe, discussing the complexities of reality and the strangeness of dark matter, but your friends that refused to get on the trampoline with you tell you afterwards that you actually just repeated the words "stars, man, stars" at each other for about two minutes

I wish I could do weed, I feel like I'd be much more chill if I partook occasionally. I can't even drink that much anymore without getting hella depressed

Randy Travesty: PHANTOM QUEEN

I don't really drink much anymore because I have a problem, so I just socially partake and keep it to one every six weeks or so. Plus, it makes my joints hurt like hell and tears my stomach to shreds thanks to modern medicine miracle of brain pills.

A witch store story:

Yesterday my kid and I went to the witch store to buy some poo poo for the house and daily practice, etc. I was looking at the pretty rocks, because they're pretty and I like rocks a lot just because they're pretty, and a lady walked up to me. Not an employee, just another customer. I said hi and stepped out of her way, and she reached around my waist to grab a particular stone, which was weird enough, but then shoved it in my face and said, "I stuff these into my vagina during Moon Time to solve my troubles," put the rock in my hand and wandered off.

Welp.

If memory serves, there's a folk medicine tradition related to this. Something about jade supposedly clearing the body of toxins. Gwyneth Paltrow even hawked such eggs on her crazy person website.

Oh man, that summer game jam looks so fun, but the only exception to the three person team rule is audio contributors. Nobody's gonna want a graphic designer who couldn't figure out a hello world in Python to save his life (I don't even really understand this joke about how dumb I am).

you might be surprised, in past years there have been a lot of people who pretty much try to go it alone, but need someone visual who can add their magic to the project

the audio file rule mostly sprung out of a general shortage of sound designers, voice actors, etc and the fact that the ones who were involved generally did just that and nothing else, so they tended to do stuff for multiple teams

also one year there was a game that had, like, a 16 person team and it was majestic and ridiculous

Well that's good to know. I probably have too many projects I'm miserably behind on already, but maybe.

Should... should BYOB field a team specifically?

Should they make the chillest game that ever was?!

Here is a thing I programmed in less than two days (aside from some iterative menu tinkering later) and graphicked in two weeks. That's from scratch with no libraries or anything.

I normally wouldn't volunteer to work on someone else's ideas because I have a gigantic surplus of ideas, but I'm so impressed by the power of chill here that I'd be on board for contributing to a chill game. Maybe the power of not being a jerk even when you're actually a jerk like me could somehow be spread beyond the bounds of this forum.

I am strongly opposed to doing anything in 3D though.

No pets, live in dogland but love cats, sadly am allergic. Only illegal thing I've done (and hell it's kosher in lots of places now) is weed which I had with a good amount of alcohol which when you are new to it results in :barf:

so I kind of never went for it again. :v:

Some parts of the city and some suburbs set up whole basins though, usually low roadways, to catch a bunch of it. One area caught three whole feet!

I love mahjjong!

And yeah, a 3d game sounds hard. So we got an actual games programer and a real life audio engineer and some willing voice actors. And I could probably sling a few pixels if it would be helpful.

But what would a super-chill game even look like? Are we even allowed to start conceptualizing yet?
