i also enjoyed the endgame reveal that both balan and lance, the villain, are secretly twinks when they remove their hats

Oh their names combine to make balance

Is that relevant

Every time I see mention of the "fuel air bomb" I remember that in the game Command and Conquer Generals that the Americans got the most "heroic" superweapon because instead of using chemical weapons like the GLA or nuclear bombs or firebombing like China, the Americans had the Fuel Air Bomb which just made a really big explosion.

Also orbital lasers in the expansion I think

Ackchyually it's specifically not an orbital laser, it's a ground based laser that bounces off an orbital mirror

the more that comes out about this "directors cut" the more i wonder why the devs didnt just bother to make a new game or a sequel considering how much it seems they're scrapping from the original version

there's no way its gonna be good but its kinda fascinating watching a developer's sunk cost go on like this

there's plenty of merit to a costume based platformer where each one grants you a single specific ability. just, don't make some of those abilities activate "when they feel like it" lol. and maybe don't lock the camera to one axis of movement at a time or design it to be allergic to looking at the ground in a platformer

oh totally, I just mean it was a massive red flag to initially market the game as a NiGHTs spiritual successor when it has barely anything in common with it.

In terms of setting, tone and what little plot there is, I see it. Gives off a lot of the same feel as Journey of Dreams did.

Also a good number of the costumes are redundant and are simply the same power as another costume or the same power but objectively better

I don't see how Balan Wonderworld could possibly be anything but amazing when it gave us Farmer Ted, The Man Who Rages Against the Storm.

the design of farmer ted makes a lot more sense when you know the lead was trying to make money by making his game bad the game was developed inside the pacific's own bermuda triangle

No, Balan Wonderworld itself had nothing to do with the insider trading.

i spent a few hours last night searching trying to scratch some itch for a mythology-based city building game and it seems like most of my options were very old games that looked pretty dope but likely would've been a bit of a drag to wrestle old UIs and many older city builder's gameplay relied on players spending hours and hours just trying to get their basic stuff working, essentially just working towards doing everything "right" then it's just management micro and adhering to working designs. The Impressions games seemed worth a try, but there's a remake of Pharoah/Cleopatra I think coming soon. Then there's a ton of early access mythology-city type games, but many already stalling or in death spirals.

guess what i really want is Black & White + Civilization + Animal Crossing.

Somehow I have arrived at Medieval Dynasty. Seems aight so far but this is pretty much medieval minecraft, except no mining and the villagers don't make that noise and are more useful. My guess is the game will need some Valheim in it to not just be a dollhouse but im fine with the dollhouse too.

WoW just brought in a monthly 'battle pass' called the Trading Post that is totally free, you complete via tasks you'd be doing anyway, you don't need to spend anything on, and it just rewards you with ingame currency to spend on cosmetics, mounts, pets

Completing the monthly challenges rewards you with a mount.
And the content is going to change each month.

It rules
