Correct!

I know that’s a direct quote from the developer, but I disagree that is what actually happened.

The Animal Well journey began in two phases, Basso says: a quick stab at a Metroidvania-styled prototype in 2012, and a bespoke engine project that he took more seriously, which he began coding alone in 2014 during his day job’s off hours.

It was 2017, and some of the design ideas from his 2012 Metroidvania lark had continued pulling on him, so Basso “wrote off” his 3D engine as “a learning experience” and started anew with 2D search action as a priority.

It seems clear to me the prototype did more heavy lifting than he’s giving credit. He clearly had an established vision beginning with the prototype. He spent three years thinking 3D was the best way to achieve that goal, but that goal was clearly based on the prototype. At some point it was clear that 3D was drifting away from the core, so the switch to 2D and a renewed focus was the answer.

It’s also clear that they had a distinct art style in mind from the start.

For his new game, he wanted pixels to scale perfectly to a variety of common screen resolutions, along with visual effects that meshed well with his integer-scaled pixel art.

And that existing engines couldn’t meet that distinct art style.

That home-brew engine is what gives the game its unique look and can allow for unique game elements, but that initial prototype was clearly the guide.

Thank God for the school lunch menu. I was planning to have spaghetti this week and it looks like any day of the week should be fine.

Honestly it’s not just artists. Most people aren’t working their dream job. I’m doesn’t mean you don’t like your job, but if your dream job paid more, or had more availability, or more security, or whatever it is you’d probably be doing that. Luckily actors typically only have a given job for a few months a year, so they have more flexibility (which is also a risk if you don’t have steady work.)

12 big ones and free grub to boot. Correct!

Which button is the retaliate button?

My only regret.

Don’t worry, I got the actual match.

It’s not polite, it’s calling him out. Trump will say/lie about anything. At one point Trump said exactly this. He didn’t mean it, he just said some shit.

Bernie is repeating his own words because occasionally Trump says something good without any intent to follow up.

So Bernie is taking him at his word. He knows Trump will never do it, but if he can call the hypocrite out and trick him into agreeing, why not?

To want to talk about 4D Chess? There it is.

Debian Testing. It isn’t “recommended” but it works fine.

Obviously if you want AUR you need an Arch variant, in which case just pick Arch.

Edit: I needed the why, it’s up to date enough for me and I know apt well.

Scarlett could be in, and I mean this literally, any film she wants to be in. Why would she pick the 7th film in the franchise? Obviously it’s easy money, so I guess that’s the answer, but it’s such a weird choice.

Dinosaurs are cool, so I guess.

C*rrect!

No problem.

Correct!

So it was the dog that buried our stuff.

Well, I’ll be damned.

And that’s the episode! Correct!

That’s the joke!

Sadly no, Wiggum has little to do with this episode. This is just a random cutaway.
