Hush puppies are amazing. The dough is cornmeal and finely minced onion, rolled into balls and deep fried golden brown delicious. The best ones ever come from a place down the road called Seafood Express. Mind you, bad hushpuppies can taste pretty lovely, particularly if the oil is bad, or the dough is gritty.

anilEhilated posted:If the explosions work anything like in Shadow Warrior (and I honestly can't remember, I played RR when I was like 12), distance doesn't protect you from explosions... But cover does, to the point of just popping behind a corner being able to shield you from a nuclear explosion. You're more or less right. Explosions do have a radius, even though they couldn't code in any damage drop-off, but cover does protect you. That's actually a thing I need to start remembering on account of the tricky little TNT crates they like to scatter in the line of fire. Rectus posted:Did you turn off the production line? It's been a long time since I played this, but I distinctly remember there being some chicken decapitation action happening. Y'know I thought there was supposed to be something more going on with that. Maybe the same glitch that disabled the CD soundtrack (hence why the levels are so eerily quiet) also disabled the chicken production line? I know I didn't hit the switch but maybe the next time I record I'll try to get some footage of the chicken processing. Apologies in advance if I fail!

We're still in episode two right? Out of like... four? I'm deeply fearful that the game just doesn't have much else to show us at this point. There's only so much psychedelic rockabilly music can do to keep things spicy!

Redneck Rampage Rides Again is a bit more of a polished game and adds some new mechanics (like a motorbike!) But yeah it's pretty much this all the way through.

SirDan3k posted:Hushpupies are wads of cornbread dough, generally seasoned with jalapeno or other peppers, that are fried and served as an appetizer. Yeah, I'm not able to have hush puppies much but they are sogood. That actually wasn't a bad map, all things considered. It had a lot of elements that made sense and was fairly well put together. Can't wait to see how the next level's supposed to shape up in comparison to some of the tougher ones.

Having taken a road trip that involved driving through Wisconsin not once, but twice, I can confirm that they do, in fact, have rednecks. They may not necessarily be home-grown, but they do reside there. Also, I had a friend who grew up in the South and never knew the Confederate flag had any ties to racism at all until someone pointed it out to him while he was checking out at a grocery store up here in the state of Washington. He had the flag as a patch on his wallet. After he learned that, he looked into it, and subsequently removed the flag from his wallet. Still was proud to be a redneck, though, even if it was just self-proclaimed. His truck DID have loudspeakers on it.

Just another music suggestion, though a little different than standard redneck fare. I think the slice of life presented fits quite well with the subject matter at hand. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilIDkkD0jIg

So at the end of a the video one of the suggested videos was a review for a game called "Country Justice: Redneck's Revenge" which is, apparently, an homage to this, and manages to be ten-thousand times worse. I don't know why anyone bothered.

On the flipside, there's tsunamis or hurricanes depending on which side you're on and occasionally drug trafficking hotspots too. And tourists.

That way you can buy a gun, and get overwhelmed by the sheer American-ness of American Walmarts. Chances are you'll just take the taxi right back to the airport.

As horrifying as Bobbin's cat-story is, I have a hard time not understanding the thought behind it. My kinfolk out in west Texas have the same general view of cats (and dogs, and most other pets, come to think of it...) as, well, farm tools. All it takes is a feral queen getting in to your prize-winning chicken coup once for you to decide that it's time to reach for the bag.
