I don't suppose we could post videos of us doing the daily challenge? I did so for like two runs, but I've kind of stopped because I keep getting distracted (and also since I don't know anything about video editing).

I had actually been thinking the same thing.

I *tried*, but I failed hard on stage three of both challenges.  Both mechanically, and by quality of the commentary.  There were long pauses as I tried to find a best path, then failed to do so.

And then I missed a challenge altogether by being busy.  As it goes.

I completed a couple of randomly easy challenges and got too big for my britches.And now....  Fuck me, no, this is...
Frail, Glitch Sickness, Shaky, EX-GLITCHER with GLITCH SICKNESS why the F

I will try this challenge myself but I won't even attempt to record it.

Edit: I do have the recordings of me trying those attempts, I just won't list them publically.

I myself have been considering trying to make videos just detailing the lives of characters, and perhaps documenting what went through their heads - though, again, as I have no knowledge of video editing, I don't even know how to add in text to videos and the like.

Provide a soothing voiceover to your characters' lives.

*pause* "And it was at that moment that he realized, that he had fucked up."

[Rolan7]

"Now, you're probably wondering how I got here!"

[Rolan7]

Well I'm excited to see a RP video, maybe I'll even give that a shot sometime.  In the meantime, I finally completed another daily and commentated over it!

Doing the commentary afterward instead of trying to talk while playing worked a *lot* better.  But also I think today's challenge is just relatively easy, heh.  There have been some recently which would have been trouble even with full use of the shop... and of course I'm too greedy to buy what I *might* not need.

"Frail: Any normal damage would normally kill you, but nobody can die during Space Halloween."
Just started a ghost vow character, and he's oddly transparent XD

I'm kinda excited about this because I missed Space Halloween last year.  I tried flying off into the void for a while but I didn't find anything, not sure how that even worked last year (if it was real).

[Egan_BW]

No no, that's was space christmas.

And it just made your screen shake a bunch as you fly too far out, far as I could tell.

When you returned, your view would be permenantly altered.

The camera angle would be tilted - up would still move you up and the like, but it was no longer up towards the top of your screen - it was more like "up towards where the top of your screen would hvae been before the Voidmother rekt your brain".

[Rolan7]

Urrgh, failed again.  The challenge was relatively easy, I just screwed up - and the third stage happened to be a "target escapes" scenario.

Which should have been a blessing, if I'd had a visitor with my sidewinder.  3-use sidewinder wasn't quite enough.

Would have been close enough to break the teleporter.

Is it bad that I bought this game during the Halloween "you can't die" period, and proceeded to exploit that feature to free about half the galaxy?
...It doesn't feel bad. 

I'll probably have to start up a new galaxy when death returns to the verse, to try it legit.

In the options mode under a "Difficulty Settings" section, there's an option to turn off permadeath. With this option switched off, anything that would normally kill your character will instead send them back to the last outpost they visited.

As the description for this setting notes, however, this is not what the developers intended for the game and it tends to create less interesting stories (without the fear of permanent loss you're not going to be nearly as invested).

The Halloween period is more broken, as there is no penalty reset to outpost.  I just get back up as a skeleton and finish the mission.  Probably ending soon, so I should probably finish liberating the galaxy.

Well played, past me. You bitch.

[AzyWng]

You can actually still use that, you know.

Now, of course, you won't be able to know what it is.

Or does. Or even if it's got more than one charge.

But you will be able to use it.
