Re: Skullmonkeys - Pan troglodytes
the plot is a thinly-veiled religious allegory where Klaymen literally gives God his crown back and bows to him
Good news: he doesn't own the Neverhood et. al anymore! Bad news: Electronic Arts owns it now! I'm torn between cackling at the irony of Tennapel finally getting a taste of the "eternal condemnation" he's been wishing on LGBT people and that nagging voice in my head reminding me that Electronic Arts is far from deserving of the privilege of meting out justice. C'est la vie.

hasa boss fight taking place on a flesh-and-bone platform (mainly spine and ribs) against a skullmonkey with a giant photorealistic head for a body, with one of its main attacks involving shooting the head's eyes out of its sockets.
A screenshot of the thing in question just before the last part of the above ispoiler happens:

Re: Skullmonkeys - Callithrix geoffroyi
Okay I looked into it and "world 1" is super short, like two sections with very little enemies and collectibles. I have no idea why it even exists, let alone why you need to use a code to get to it. It just feels like an intro stage they couldn't figure out how to slot in to make sense.

@ raocow, your choice of thumbnail has been hounding me like a ravenous hellbeast all over youtube despite my attempts to outrun it and constantly scroll it away and i just gotta say, it's giving "that one episode where meltman was a giant/played by a human, and vomits on like the muscle one at one point" action league now vibes

the thumbnail wasn't a youtube generated one. I hand picked that frame in premiere, because I knew.

hall of records literally being basically a bunch of parodies(?) of various bible stories. also note the question mark because for how born-again christian doug tennapel tends to be we generally recall the hall of records seemed a bit. Overly Dismissive? despite supposedly being by an actual christian.
granted this may be because we were Actually Unhinged Enough To Read Through That Thing One Dayalso honestly something being owned by mr. tennapel vs. owned by EA is like choosing a stab in the leg vs. a stab in the arm. legally speaking this counts as a morton's fork
how dare you. mosts 2022 thread of "biggest fraud" and it is skullmonkeys ep 2 thumbnail inbound in like a half a year. we will not forget. (unless we do)

Re: Skullmonkeys - Pan troglodytes
The whole thing was a jokey retelling of the Creation myth, and borrowed a lot from the Biblical fall of man. A good chunk of the humor consists of bible jokes, and pieces of in-game lore even make fun of lesser-known offshoots such as Gnosticism (the belief that knowledge, rather than faith, is the key to salvation).camwoodstock wrote: ↑1 year ago this may be a bit of a silly remark but we feel like the given example kinda pales in comparision to the...hall of records literally being basically a bunch of parodies of various bible stories.
I'm used to accomplished artists being that much of a disappointment in their personal lives; Phil Spector killed somebody, Jello Biafra ripped off his band, Anish Kapoor is an upper class twit, Captain Beefheart was a monster, David Byrne is David Byrne... I'm just pissed off that EA has chosen to sit on the rights in perpetuity, rather than shit or get off the pot (whether Doug gets any money from it or not) when there's still an audience. At best, they were expecting it to have a much bigger market than it was ever geared towards; at worst... they bought it just buy it, just to have one more thing other people could not.camwoodstock wrote: ↑1 year ago also honestly something being owned by mr. tennapel vs. owned by EA is like choosing a stab in the leg vs. a stab in the arm. legally speaking this counts as a morton's fork

I love this game.On the note, the smart monkey wrote:Thanks for coming, Klaymen, here, have a ballistic potato, it'll help. I used your eye as a homing beacon, I hope you don't mind. It's not like you used that eye anyway right? Don't worry about it, I keep my worm snacks in my skull too. Oh, speaking of snacks, do not eat the potato, it'll give you The Bumps.
