Yes I do. Is there something I missed?

The tranparency makes it look nasty. I suppose I could try to remove the background, but that'll take some doing.

Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.

Can't really cater to both darkling and original at the same time. Or if you do, you cut out a couple colors like yellow and purple because in one of the themes, the other is too hard to make out from the background.

I use darkling because my eyes like it better. Just do as you always do.

Meta: Use the propulsion of the pressure-washer to blast me back through the portal.
Fantasy: Find whoever said that, and shoot him.

(5) You manage to struggle free of the guards and sprint to a safe distance before tossing a knife at one! (5 + 1 = 6) The throwing knife zips through the air, slitting a guard's throat! It then travels around the group of guards like a boomerang. It (5) Slits another throat, (Three 6's in a row!) decapitates three more (!), (4) slices open the last guard's arm, and (2) narrowly misses a random bystander. It then flies back into your hand. Holy crap.

Oooh, I hadn't even considered what happens to my fantasy character if I'm, y'know, traveling through time. Hope my collar doesn't go off.

Meta: Jauntily walk back to the elevator and hit a floor we've yet to go to.

Fantasy: Go find something small and guilty, bite its legs off, and get some magic hands!


Screw time travel.  I'll only travel to the future, at a rate of 1s/s.

Let's play a game of musical limbs!

**********~
Turn 119
**********~


META TURN:

Well... uh... okay then.

Goals
Find the keycard stations.

Current Soundtrack
Elevator Room

Actions
Meta: Jump through the portal!
(...)

"ARGLEBLARGH"

You backflip through the portal! Your body is thrown violently through a nightmarish void of swirling images, and you exit the portal in- surprise- space. There's no sign of Kyle anywhere.
RW: Me: Find a nearby teleporter.
MC: Assimilate.
(...) You can't seem to find a teleporter around here.
(...) MC stumbles around the room, absorbing more webbing and bits of metal.
Meta: Use the propulsion of the pressure-washer to blast me back through the portal.
(...) You fire the pressure washer, propelling yourself backward through the portal! The giant spider drifts back to the portal and follows you through it. On the way back through the time vortex, the spider slams into something traveling the other way and gets knocked out of the time stream! You subsequently arrive back in the storage room, one turn after you left. Perfect! Cleanz0r rolls into the room and awaits orders.
RW: Step forward and demand that these strange people tell me what on Earth is going on.
(...) Before you can say anything, one of the spacesuit-wearing people gestures to the others and turns toward you!

"We're you from the future, okay? Now, if you'll excuse us-"
"Wait! Who's that you're fighting? What are you-"
"Sorry, can't tell you information about your own future."
"Then why did you tell me you were from the future?"
"Because that's what the last guy said."

He gives the thumbs up to the others and they continue fighting.
Meta: Jauntily walk back to the elevator and hit a floor we've yet to go to.
(...) Ignoring the teleporter that Derm is unable to find, you snag the keycard and walk out into the charred laboratory. There still seems to be a gas leak. You don't feel so jaunty all of a sudden...

The portal on the wall begins to close! One of the mechanical humanoids fires some sort of energy weapon at the opposite wall, and another portal opens!

Ok, now that I can use my sword again, I'm good.

Meta: Run to the elevator, extinguishing any very small fires along the way.  For large fires, just run faster.
