Sometimes it's not the bomb that's retarded.

You can't pass too far forward.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offside_(ice_hockey)

Basically it's to prevent long attack passes from happening and to force the attackers to enter the opponents' side properly.

It's a bit different in football where instead of a blue line, you have to track an idiot on the opposing team https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offside_(association_football)

The rule's my arch nemesis in Inazuma Eleven games.

Dan and Grace's Chaos Romcom Episode 7 - Goof Troop

A couple weeks ago, Grace sent me this song because he is a cruel person, and now I'm inflicting this on you as well.

Incidentally Grace also noticed that this album came out on August 28th 2001, and while theres no direct link between it and what happened exactly two weeks later, it's an interesting coincidence

Goof Troop is way worse in co-op; each of you can only carry one item, whoever's stuck playing Max is constantly waiting on Goofy because Goofy moves slower but hits harder, and friendly fire is on (though you don't take damage) so you're constantly getting in each other's way and breaking barrels and shattering blocks that get kicked at you.

Still better than Revolution X though.

(my aunt, for reasons far beyond my comprehension, owned both Goof Troop and Revolution X and my cousin & I binge-co-oped both those games in a weekend and we didn't talk to each other for a month afterward)

Revolution X whipped rear end in the arcades, but for the life of me I cannot imagine the thought process that led to a SNES port.

Also given Grace has basically zero impulse control, a co-op run of Goof Troop would just be me trying to solve all the puzzles before Grace absentmindedly kicks blocks in random directions or waltzes into the path of a block because he was like "hey what's over here" and not paying attention.

My wife is one of those people. I tried to EDF with her and she'd inevitably gently caress off somewhere as a wing diver leaving me to fight all the ants. I eventually just ended up shooting sticky bombs onto her and blowing them up at a fun time.

I get it.

Stoked for James Pond.

My favourite example is when we played Peace Walker, while I was getting tortured, Grace was in the cell and could work on escaping. Right after clearing the final torture segment, suddenly Strangelove is like "Hey, what's going on?!" and we immediately get a game over because Grace apparently blundered into the room where I was getting tortured :cripes: then I had to do the entire torture sequence again I love you darling

This was the actual worst thing I've ever seen on a ROM, and I am including the weird porn games you've dredged up in the past. I am staggered at how offensive absolutely everything about it is to my senses.

I don't know what it is but I found the same CRATE OF ROMS as before despite my hard drive dying, and it's in there, so next time we record I'll make sure we play it.

Again it's a CRATE nothing illegal or immoral is happening here.

Robocod was the second James Pond game. It was loved at its time(1991), reviewed well, sold well, and got ported around quite a bit. It started as an Amiga/Atari ST game(And probably no one remembers what those even are....)

Pond did OK, one could say. Four games in all, all did well enough.

Yeah I beat it several times on my Amiga 500, I think it's actually one of the better platformers on the system. The thing is, the Amiga (and the Atari ST) had a single button joystick. That made most of the action games, and all of the ports on the system hot trash. Can you imagine playing Mortal Kombat II or Street Fighter 2: The New Challengers with a single button? I don't have to, cause I did it! I wish it weren't so, but it is!

Mortal Kombat II had the special additional joy of the graphics for fatalities being on a separate disk, so you'd have to swap a disk in and wait for it to load to see the finisher. Man, I loved Amiga games back in the day, but in retrospect it was just because all my friends had C64s instead.

If you're asking the question "who playtested this?" about a romhack, the answer is usually "nobody". Sometimes it's "the developer him/herself played a few levels".

I loved Robocod as a five year old but looking at it now it does look pretty off-putting.

Fun facts about the Amiga version:

1) As Dan mentioned the hostages are penguins. What he didn't mention is that they are a tie in with Penguin biscuits:



2) In the game over screen, the penguins drag away Pond's dead body to eat him.

Since you usually act as a check on Grace and racist comments, maybe Grace can be a check on your graphic violence comments. I was raised in ultraviolent poo poo and still had to leave the room twice (and couldn't finish the Goof Troop so I assume he's trapped on that island forever reenacting Battle Royale).

That's a bit different because I make violence jokes on purpose while Grace just says words that come into his head without ever wondering what they sound like in sequence. I can try to tone down the violence jokes though.
