Your photogenic dog mayor's political career is done for once I release the leg humping tapes. You flew too close to the sun, you wanted a voice of the people, someone who would listen and speak for you, someone who could shake hands, but all you elected was another animal.
 
GAMBIT: While everyone is busy dooming over a potential lack of Direct (or software) or asleep, I sneak into House TWO and feed some abyss-goo to their crickets, making them grow, so they'd eat the Death Note of meatbag 👀

trundling along on the way to House TWO, you check your goo container to see how it’s holding up.

it’s not. it’s gone. the goo completely dissolved the container! and your favorite bag! fuck!

you backtrack until you find it, and…

wow. yep. seems like it created a second, smaller abyss. like really small. tiny. just for fun.

better luck next time!

I don't know if I'd want Bingle as game master. Not because he's a dog... kaiju... beetle thing. But because he's the pet of House LOVE.

Which brings me to my CANDIDATE QUESTION for BINGLE: How would you ensure the game remains fair if you're obviously biased towards one of the houses?
 
Also, new summary will be coming up soon, so please keep the moves on low for a couple pages so I can catch up!

too powerful, y’all. Updates nearly every three days…

Isn't Bingle just a normal dog? Chitin of ABYSS is beetle thingy, and ƎVO⅃ ɘƨoH ʇo ɘlϱniઘ is a Kaiju, but I thought Bingle was just a standard PUPPY before they got named

a few small thoughts

  • it is so hard to blow through. I didn't think there'd be much physical resistance but it's like blowing through a meter long straw (or coffee stirrer even). it's night and day with my melodica or recorder. I've never played a normal reed instrument though, just trumpet, so I have no frame of reference there
  • related to the above, today I realized that I've overcompensated and have been blowing too hard to max out the sensor. controlling below it is hard because again meter long straw but that's where the expression lies
  • it takes software updates and patch data through its midi in port. I seriously had to play a .mid file through an old-school freeware midi player to update this thing. it downloads patches the same way
  • I bought an aftermarket patch library that is and was highly lauded by professional players but uh I can't get any of these patches to sound that great yet. I didn't really fuck with the stock ones though so maybe they'd be even worse
  • a wind instrument with a seven (and a half I guess?) octave range is insane. even without a wind instrument background or even a real music background at all the massive potential is starting to sink in. it's probably faster than a fucking keyboard
  • edit: oh and most important of all, the metal finish is like some sort of a polished gunmetal and it's gorgeous

exactly. normal dogs also shed full husks like cicadas — which then become sentient — and contain the power to corrupt their mirror selves
 
I got 2 capri suns for 1 once by carefully choosing a vending machine with the capri sun just barely hanging on, ask me anything

unrelated but has anyone here ever had an aneurysm? not part of the game, having a weird one with the body and panic attacks today. can’t tell if this is normal pain / headache or if I should be more worried.
 
Finally realized that my door opening and closing sounds were not my own, and are extremely easy to record at home.

Gonna be able to submit to steam really really soon, possibly by the end of this week. Let's gooooo
 
A new challenger has entered the ring, Spongeroth. And to spare my wrath I won’t attack the god of two, Horace, I will strike ABYSS for the name of BOOKS

Sehpirhorace is dead, I killed him
 
my media consumption is currently all sci-fi:
metroid prime remastered
halo: tv show

hell yeah, be sure to add "foley artist" to your resume
 
Got a pair of fun deals in(well one was a very slight deal, but it’s been on my to get list since 2019ish probably? One of the first kits I ever saw in store in person)

(Now I just need to play P5R… and P5S… then I can play this XD. Maybe I should skip from P3P to P5R since it isn’t grabbing me)

time to get gaming tho. Also probably building the Biggus Mchugeguy moderoid next
There's no rule that says a dog can't play basketball be president
There is. It’s called an age minimum that dogs could never reach
 
unrelated but has anyone here ever had an aneurysm?
So you don't usually feel an aneurysm unless it pops, which causes what we call a thunderclap headache, which is a severe headache that is literally described in textbooks as "agonizing" and "blinding" and "the worst headache ever."

So hopefully that's not what you're feeling. If you're feeling the pain on only one side of the head, it's likely a migraine.

A Demon Slayer game in the style of Mario Party is not something I had on my bingo card and now I think I need this in my life... 😄
