[ hey look it's the corner of a bedroom. like. the top corner? there's pictures on the wall in the background but you really can't see much more than peter around where he's stuck the TAB to the wall. ]

Hey everyone! I had this project I was working on, back home, for school. I figured I didn't wanna get too rusty so I decided to recreate and then finish it here. [ shh he doesn't like school. he honestly doesn't miss homework but sometimes you learn cool things! ] So, yeah! I, uh, put it up for downloading. It's a game, by the way. It's a rough draft, and it was - well it was a school project so there were some specific elements that were supposed to be included, and I'm definitely gonna start over-explaining it if I keep going with that idea, so I guess if anybody wants to check it out for me then they can find it here. I didn't put a charge on it or anything since it's the first one I've ever finished, so I guess if you like it then just let me know? Or if you don't like it.

[ soooooooooooo

yeah. wave bye to the camera.

(ooc note: maybe double-check your volume before you start playing. good luck) ]

Who is this woman? Why does she keep shouting at me??

[riptide wasn't very good at the game...]

She's not a real person, she's not - [ she's not shouting?? are you okay ]

It's just a voice-over announcer to differentiate the stages.

She's really shrill! I feel like I need to say sorry to someone. Are you her mother? I'm sorry!

Is she? [ if she's off-putting he should probably find a new voice synthesizer. she's just supposed to be informative or whatever ] She's not real! I'm not her mom, she doesn't have one.

Wait, is she an AI? That's gross. Don't use an AI! Or at least warn for it!

She's not an AI! [ he wishes he could code an AI, holy shit. tony stark here he comes ] It's just a set of specific predetermined phrases based on one of two outcomes to each stage. And like. The general 'redo' statement. None of it's real, there's no thought involved at all.

[ wait ]

I mean, there's no like. When you hear the words, they're just a conditional reaction.

So, she's not like... real. She wasn't replying to me because she doesn't have an answer, not because she was ignoring me for doing badly?

...

You're not recording players, right? I said a lot of things I'd like to take back.

[ peter might have as well but i won't say for sure ]

Why would I record players? I mean, I'm not recording anyone. I definitely don't want to record anyone. But yeah, she's not like. A she. The voice is just a conditional reaction, there's no like. Involvement beyond what happens on screen.

[ somewhat playfully; hopefully it sounds as such ] You abusing my program?

That's a matter of perspective. Don't make me repeat what I said, it was... unpleasant.

[So much judgement, user. ~~Though Riptide was already on the useless list.~~]

[ WHAT DID HE DO ~~but more to the point riptide was yes quickly being put on a somewhat more lenient but similar list~~ ]

Not bad. How long did it take you to do this? And what's your opinions on phone lines that reach space?

Well I was working on it for a while at school, but it took a lot less time to recreate here since I already learned the things I was learning while I made it the first time. It's kind of hard to gauge how long I spent on it with both timelines in mind.

[ also what ] You mean like satellite phones?

The fact that you remembered it without your notes at all is pretty impressive.

Uh not exactly.

Well there was a lot of trial and error involved. [ like. a lot. although he did still remember it that's true! that's a nice point, ty bro. ] But thanks! I'm just glad it works.

Then what do you mean?

Yeah, man. Keep that up and you'll get the next phone handle out here.

Let's just say it took your game and really fucked with it. That kinda tech. Not that much of it exists anymore where I'm from.

[ he'll get the next what?? ]

I'm not... sure that actually cleared anything up, but sure. Phones can mess with things? Is it not controlled by someone?

Oh no, no this ain't the Terminator, don't worry. Nothing like that. They're controlled by people of course, but its the kinda people who are in charge you gotta worry about.

this is something you did for school?

i started it at school! i'm kind of
idk i'm glad i finished it but now i realize i'll just have to finish it again when i go back home, lol
o well

still this is great!
programming isn't easy
i could barely get bb-9 to have a personality subprogram

did u say barely
can we b friends what r u talking about 'barely' + 'personality'
is bb-9 here can i see it/him/her

also ty!
sorry
i do really mean thank you honest
i jsut got distracted
just*

you move fast
bb-8 is my astromech droid
it technically doesn't have a gender but i refer to it as female
i don't know why

this is pretty solid, man. basic, but i guess you can't really go wrong with keeping it simple

thx!

yeah when/if i come back to it i'd like to add smth to the pov like
make it shift as well as the stage itself? i think that'd be potentially interesting but
idk it's already not easy so
not all games r easy but u don't wanna make them THAT hard

but thanks!
again
it's the first one i've ever actually finished i'm mostly just glad it works, but i'm gonna keep working on things

yeah, you'd definitely wanna keep from overcomplicating it. what you've got works. i haven't noticed any bugs

though i guess if you wanted to really upgrade, it could be cool to have a 3dimensional version to play on a holotile. give it full 360 rotational movement

Must you really use that music?
