Yeah.  It could be so much more than it is, really.  It seems like they didn't really think about the player's ability to make megaprojects or whatever, there's not that many hellbeasts, and honestly there's not much food variety.  But what's there is good.

Also, the Ludum Dare #27 project is starting to shape up. We've got a little under 1 day left, but I think we might get it done in time!

Yeah, that was generally my impression of it too. After surviving a couple winters, you get to the point where, aside from some of the crazy hellbeasts which do exist [like the winter one], there isn't all that much left to do. Using resource transplantation, you can end up with a really cozy setup at your home; at which point it all kind of becomes stale. Some form of megaproject construction would give it a continued vitality, particularly if it could involve similar science-magic to the preexisting tech tree. As is, you can get to a point where you say "Alright, my only worry in winter is where to dispose of all this rotting food I'm too full to eat." And then wander off to play something else.

What I want is for it to really be about not starving, so like Harvest Moon with a gentleman scientist who takes over the old family restaurant and then must develop God's Sushi or something before his father comes back, marrying someone strange also possible but not required

Like, would that be too much to ask?

I'd play it. Love me some Harvest Moon-likes.

... I would totes play a harvest moon type game set in something like Athas. We, like. Need more stuff like that. Rune Factory was a start, but we need... more. Steampunk, post-apoc fantasy, etc., so forth, so on. Lovecraftian influenced waterworlds. Kick it up a notch. Next week's crop will be people, selling for 14 brains to the pound.

I was actually thinking about making something like that.  Now that I know there's interest...

Futzing about with the GIMP and strategic screenshots has produced the first stage of a new avatar, which I feel okay with using in low-res form. Sooner or later, I'll get to the next stage and replace it with an objectively better one. Then, stage three!

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

There's always interest :D

..This is totally me saying I'm interested in a subtle way.

We are delivering an entire truck full of beer. To Las Vegas.

Ladies and gentlemen, the party truck just keeps on a-rollin'.

Sirus's party truck is outfitted with colored strobe floodlights, a horn that plays dance music, and a cannon for firing beer and pretzels.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Man, I wish.

Maybe someday, if I ever get tired of hauling freight around, I will buy my own truck and have a special trailer made. One with windows and chairs and music systems and cool stuff like that. Hire out to groups of people who want to travel to Vegas or Hollywood or whatever in style. Then I will truly have a Party Truck.
