there's MORE of these shitty ones? lmao

The situation for guitar and bass tabs on the internet is DIRE these days. Ad-riddled sites, accounts required, free tabs seem impossible to find compared to how it was years ago. Why does everything have to be ruined?

they did add pause music in a post-release update, June 2017

It's Friday, and this is your reminder to close all of your browser tabs! Just close your entire browser window and start fresh.

When God closes a door He opens a window. This drives me NUTS. Terrible roommate. The electric bill is outrageous. There's a bird's nest in the bathroom

do you think it'll hit 2025 still? or is early 2026 more likely?

I agree with this. Looking at this on my sharp laptop display, it's way easier to read the one on the right.

but I know there are examples of the smooth font looking bad in these games, I just don't think this one is one of them lol

I'm not going to say it's better than Mario Party or anything like that, but there are definitely some parts that feel like improvements Mario Party should make. I hope this game gets some attention.

rar 🍌 @rardk64.com · 2d

Lego Party is really interesting, it's Mario Party inspired absolutely, but there are so many thoughtful changes here. Mini game victory order determines the turn order for the next turn, which adds stakes to minigames beyond studs (coins), pace of turns is so much quicker, lots of good stuff

Close game yesterday, I got up to 7 golden bricks on the last turn, @yuedreams.bsky.social hit a "chance time" equivalent and handed one of my golden bricks to player 4 and won, last turn was wild

Lego party final results screen, Basil in first, me in second (as Johnny Thunder), CPUs in third and fourth.

Podium in order from left to right:
Me (as Johnny Thunder) in second place
Basil in first place
Player 3 CPU in third place
Player 4 CPU in fourth place

In Super Smash Bros., the skeletons visible when characters are hurt by electric attacks are not tied to specific animations, and instead are a form that can be toggled on and off at any time, including in cutscenes. Below are excerpts of the game's intro, with skeletons.

Ultimately, we still have friends there and would love if people support them and their incredible hard work!!

It's Thursday, which is a great day to start using a password manager and enable 2FA on all of your accounts!

rar 🍌 @rardk64.com · 2d

Especially with the ever-changing industry, it makes sense to take control of that aspect and do it all yourself. Remains to be seen what they do with it!

Called it

Nothing more than the studio putting out a proof of concept to make sure they can actually do stuff on their own.

I imagine it'll be like marvel where in a few years they don't need universal or Sony anymore and can just self publish.

So like just doesn't blanket apply to all of the Ghibli movies I guess

Fuck forgot the alt text

My team is a Bayleef named Gabriella level 27, an Electrode level 37 named Mimic (in-game trade, hate the name), a Pidgeotto level 26 named Paulette, a Geodude level 24 named George, a Poliwhirl level 32 named Enzo, and a Koffing level 27 named Geraldine.

rar 🍌 @rardk64.com · 2d

I think my team maybe sucks a little bit but it's been rough training them up. Polished Crystal is the romhack I'm playing, it's really good, fixes the challenge level after Morty's gym, but romhacks need to figure out exp sharing to all party members because it's rough going back.

Yeah. Spirited Away has always made me uncomfortable.

Whenever someone uses Ghibli or Miyazaki as a synonym for "quaint, charming, unthreatening" I'm always like "bro did we watch the same movies?"
