Turns out, in NMS, if you plonk an automated miner down on a resource deposit, then mine the resource deposit with the terrain manipulator while it's harvesting, you get the resources from the deposit you just slurped up, AND the miner keeps going, just... hovering in the air. I have no idea how long it'll last, but... dang.

@KitRedgrave Honestly, I realised recently that while I MIGHT enjoy a lot of survival games, I DON'T because... there's not a lot to DO in them. Sure they're "wide open sandboxes" but... in the end it's just... playing with a lego set.

Sure it's fun to build stuff especially with other people but you have to actually create the fun YOURSELF, which... isn't easy with a small group of two or three folks.

If there's a plotline, an end condition, that sort of thing, that makes it MUCH more fun.

welp didn't actually manage to play any games ;w; ended up doomscrolling for hours. hhgh.

re: US politics, coup, Capitol "secured", Guardian link 

@Qwyrdo@weirder.earth secured by WHO exactly? c_c

uspol, coup, workstuffs, request for resources 

maybe a better way to frame this: we have an audience that would turn to us if they wanted to do something but weren't sure what. if there's anything you want to signal boost, I'd appreciate it.

i was halfway through this toot when somebody asked us via PM how to "fuel the angry into ACTION"

so yeah. you'd be doing me a favor but i can also assure you that nothing's too small, folks wanna help

@finn that's okay a robot friemb will let you play vibeo gambe on them :D

@heatherhorns same tbqh. but hell I'd see some amazing friggin jungles before I did!

Canadians hmu if you can take a jewish refugee because I really feel like I'm seeing death right now

Jet Lancer or No Man's Sky

High Octane and rad music or relaxing chill space adventures

@SuperCee@plush.city also the map screen track, "Suit Up" is just... so nice and chill after the high octane levels too god it's just so good I could listen to this shit forever.

@SuperCee@plush.city GOD YES fuck this is exactly the shit that makes it so much fun like, with Luftrausers, sure, you CAN do that and because it's Vlambeer it's kinetic as fuck and feels great, but it only lasts for a bit because... y'know. Eventually it gets tiresome and you just hit a damn wall and are like "well fuck , what now?" Even if you get all the upgrades you can it's still pretty luck based.

The Dodge mechanic is so simple but it adds SO MUCH to the gameplay.

@SuperCee@plush.city like, someone clearly saw Luftrausers, and thought "Wow this is a nice techdemo lol" and actually made a GAME like it that's actually fun to play for longer than five minutes, with a story and progression and some of the raddest fuckin' music I've heard in a shmup.

@SuperCee@plush.city it IS!! I just got it recently ahnd fuck it's like Luftrausers only like a million times better goddamn

God JetLancer's soundtrack is fuckin' amazing holy shit it has no business being this good wtf
