You sign up for a webex with your tax prep agent, and you're greeted with a hololive avatar that goes over your deductions. You ask why the guy looks like a 12 year old cartoon girl, and he has to explain that it's a new marketing thing corporate pushed out, and please don't tell his family this is how he earns his paycheck.

Wow apparently the company that (attempted) to make anime waifu VN tax filing game is the same company that did Lil Nas X's Satan Shoes that Nike sued the hell out of. I guess they just do ridiculous stuff even if it's gonna get stopped immediately?

There's a "public stunt because we can" kind of shitposting energy they have. When you outright name your group "mischief", I suppose they're living up to the name.

The manifesto and general parody + shots fired at TurboTax is pretty funny, ngl. Apparently this game? when it comes out will be free, (provided it ever does) so unless the unlikely scenario happens where it really does turn out to be some sort of data harvester, seems pretty benign to me.

At the very least, it's a rather unique shitpost.

The button below it is great too.

Yeah it seems like a shitpost and the game probably doesn't exist, but it's a really clever one, I applaud it.

Absolutely random question from nowhere, but with what other titles (video games or film) does Sons of the Forest share similarities? Focus on font, positioning of text, and colors.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1326470/Sons_Of_The_Forest/

Don't say Stranger Things because I thought of that one already. It also reminds me of something else though, but I'm old and can't remember.

Edit: Not that I think Sons of the Forest is a bad game.

Editedit: Also, that $2,000 game is wild.

Editx3: Blood Bowl 3 apparently didn't implement a save option for single-player: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1016950/discussions/0/3774616756095118190/

A bit old but I'm going to say "House of 1,000 Corpses" has a pretty similar font.

It's okay if you have any questions.


The shovelware manufactures have apparently decided that a 100% positive rating is implausible, so now they're going for mixed reviews. Today I got Jungle Bomb Fever and Slayser, both of which are $59.00 and have exactly 50% positive ratings. I saw another one the other day, but obviously I didn't track it, because who actually wants to remember this crap? The reviews are the most generic things possible, which I guess is designed to fool incredibly gullible people.

I like the positive Slayser reviewer complimenting the game for its price, below a negative review saying that it has exactly one map and one mob type to fight.

Neko Secret Homecoming mixes third-person 3D exploration of Neko Town with 2D puzzles in the anime factory. Hacking the anime factory’s terminals will require picture puzzles to be solved, thereby unlocking beautiful images, while other mini games are hidden throughout the world for good casual variety, whether it’s playing darts or cracking a safe.

I saw this on the Playstation store and was utterly taken with the phrase "hack the anime factory." The whole thing sounds like something an AI would generate.

Judging from this description I'm about 50/50 on it being either a charming find-the-hidden-object-like about spotting cats and kittens or outright pornography.
