'Yaris' released on this day in 2007.

A free XBLA advergame intended to promote a line of Toyota vehicles, by depicting them as carrying an assortment of laser weapons fit to fend off foes. Delisted after a year due to overwhelming negative reception / widespread mockery.

we kept cracking jokes abt what the hell couldve happened during robocop 2's production to have made him want to make this, my friend sent this hilarious message

i saw the invisible man. another knee slapper, tbh. the movie is both funny on its own but also funny in a way thats funny to my modern sensibilities. all timer performance from the leading man himself

and quills are still a pain in the ass to track down and collect. okay thats actually it now.

kelzo is doing better but could use a hug @kelzo.bsky.social · 5h

it lost a lot of its identity in the process of modernizing and updating, losing those rougher n64 edges and quirks to become a lot more like other modern 3d platformers. the weirdest thing they failed to address was the quills, they basically just replaced quills with coins

so, yeah, im not here to list off everything replaylee changed, bc theres so much, its down to the way the game controls and feels, which ive already talked abt before elsewhere. i dont think replaylee is bad, and i can appreciate it since it exists alongside the original, but i think

anything beyond that is a powerup used at specific, marked locations so it allows players to get good at controlling the game as early as possible. im getting way off topic but what im saying is that replaylee made that change and its great, unquestionably the best change made.

ur moveset to u and i was fine with it at first bc thats what banjo did, but then i realized it ISNT what banjo did. aside from 2 or 3 moves, the entire moveset for banjo kazooie is given to the player before they even enter grunty's lair, and the rest are earned in the first few levels

1

kelzo is doing better but could use a hug @kelzo.bsky.social · 5h

a players entire moveset, obviously u can get powerups later on or things that change ur moveset, but just as a base all movement options should be given to the player, give the player the toys to play and experiment with and master as early as possible. the original game drip fed

one change thats unequivocally positive is the fact that u start off with the entire moveset, besides the double jump, roll shield and flying ability which aren't in the game anymore. flying is a powerup now. the more 3d platformers i play the more i realize that all of them should start off with

thats the kind of visual design where a player sees something and doesnt have to be told abt it. butterflies are health as displayed by the UI, and butterflies are all over the levels, so when i eat one i get my health back, right? right! thats great!

1

kelzo is doing better but could use a hug @kelzo.bsky.social · 5h

the old health and energy bars, instead of butterflies its hearts now and instead of a cool little green lightning bar its just the fucking botw stamina bar!!!! why! why does every game do the botw stamina wheel now stop it!! the butterfly change might be the worst in the game,

even the menu is different, where the old one was just banjo's menu down to the same save file interface this one is just purple and white choices. that being said i do like the "yes or no" pop ups a lot more now, the ones in the original were uggo. the game even gets rid of-

gave multiple pagies now. ghost writers now give out *eight* pagies, one for each one found and an extra 3 for finding them all, kartos gives 3 now, bosses drop 3 pagies, they also slapped multiple 8 red coin missions into each level, thats not an exaggeration theyre literal 8 red coin challenges

but at the same time it removes so many of yooka-laylee's idiosyncrasies and smooths out its image to feel more modern that it kind of just blends into the crowd. i was interested to see that the pagie count for each world had doubled, only to be disappointed that most tasks from the original just

ive been playing yooka-replaylee for ~5 hours, long enough to beat the game, and im perplexed by its existence. as a remake im pleased with it, as it definitively carves out its own path and essentially makes an identity for itself so it can stand alongside the original, -
