Re: Super Stuffed Animal World: The Legend Continues

As we first experience in this episode, the Richard Displacement is the true essence of Super Demo World: The Legend Continues and its design decisions. Later stages will offer assorted delightful variations on this theme. You may call it "impish" should the patina of history compel you to...

Re: mario 3 ascetic.

Incidentally, the Super Mario Bros. 3 Player's Guide refers to the two plants sharing an intimate moment in the second World 7 fortress as "Piranha Plant Squeeze Play". This phrase has also taken firm root within my brain, wrapping its tendrils amongst the grooves of my brain, never again ...

Re: mario 3 ascetic.

As a child, I once read the Super Mario Bros. 3 player's guide, and 6-8 was referred to as "Rough and Tumble Tundra". This phrase has been glacially etched in to my mind ever since.

Re: La-Mulana 2 - got all this greece across time and space

Ehh, to me it reads more like being hyper-self-consciousness about being a derivative work, and overcompensating as a result.. "Guys, I know this seems like it's just a barely altered copy of the original, but I swear this is totally the real, authentic one, and the original (which you liked be...

Re: La-Mulana 2 - i am the professor i have two legs

It increasingly annoys me that this game uses the singular form, "Álfr", to refer to the race as a whole, rather that the plural, "Álfar". Particularly since they don't call the the Vanir the "Vanr" or Æsir the "áss"/"ǫ́ss". Or the Modern Humans the ...

Re: Donkey Kong Land 3 - Land of the Lost

"Bash the Baddies" is obviously intrinsically superior to "Destroy them all" by virtue of being alliterative. That's just good horse sense, and leaves us champing at the bit for more.

Re: All The S@nics - Battle - March 25, 2006

Fun fact: "Small children fighting in an alleyway over a Klondike Bar half" was the original concept for this game, but, similar to Sonic's Schoolhouse, they decided to paste Sonic characters over things for marketing reasons.

I lay down for a bit a moment ago, and I had a dream that idol was being interviewed about this level by this guy who normally makes whiskey videos for YouTube.

Re: Half-Life 2 - Episode 2 - Chariots of War

Why do these guys need Gordon again? And get enslaved by the Bem pre-1? The implication from the first game seems to be that Vortigaunts, despite their magic lightning powers, are quite physically weak and frail compared to humans, so having a heavily armed man in a powersuit around for protection ...

It's certainly a difficult thing today to look at this level with a dispassionate eye knowing the author and what's been revealed about them in the meantime, but I'll just say this about the rankings in general: As we've discussed before, watching a playthrough of a level is necessarily going to be ...

Re: Vanilla Level Design Contest X - RailF0

I should note that this is at least the second time that I've accidentally referred to the player as "the viewer" in my comments. Feel free to read the sinister hidden meaning of your choice in to this wacky word-wielding.
