my pixel art's worth commissioning, now, apparently

In the world of factorio, science is done by producing ever more potent energy drinks for the scientists to drink to makke their brains work better.

At least, that's what I assume is happening here

its spelled "ball"
but we pronounce it "bawl"

we don't say "bawl-loon" for balloon. We say "bah-loon."

why is the english language so weird

I still wish Mastodon had a "boost but add CW" option, for when I see toots that I feel like sharing but I don't wanna just spout politics or whatever on others' timelines.

everyone always asking "wario ware"

nobody asking "wario how"

Cooking Mama Let's Cook! review P7 

This isn't a bad thing exactly though, god knows sometimes it would frustrate the crap out of me when the game would just refuse to register a tap or a swipe with the stylus for no reason other than "fuk uyo" from the DS, or you'd miss by like, ONE PIXEL or something I dunno. It's pretty fun in general though.

So far so good tho. I rate it pretty highly to be honest. For a mobile game, despite some issues, it's not horridly predatory!

Cooking Mama Let's Cook! review P6 

here's the odd other points of note:
Because it's a touch screen interface, on a phone, it's had to make some allowances for there not being a "precise" (loool) input from a DS stylus. As such a lot of the games feel easier?? There's a lot more allowance and it feels surprisingly more responsive and accurate, but it IS however harder to gauge exactly how much force you're imparting when you have to "flick" things off other things or into other things.

4: You get like... 3 recipes to start with. You earn coins by completing recipes and you can redo them with a higher difficulty, and I guess maybe that gives you more coins?? plus you can like... get daily gifts or something, and more recipes and stuff unlock as you go along, and there are minigames like... farming ones?? you can do to get MORE coins as well??

then you can use those to unlock other recipes... but yeah. otherwise you gotta pay cash-money :/

Cooking Mama Let's Cook! review P4 

(oh also 6: it's on both iOS and Android)

Now for the bad points:
1: yeaaah it's free as in microtransactions :|
2: the UI is... noisy, cluttered, messy. Lots of things wiggling and diverting attention obnoxiously...
3: (really this should be 2b honestly but) alongside this, the game feels... like it's constantly trying to RUSH you with things, like, text goes by too fast, things flash up a lot... the gameplay is normal, but outside of that, yikes. It's A Lot.

Cooking Mama Let's Cook! review P3 

- (continued) which combined with the cute cooking mama t-shirt and shorts she's wearing makes her look super friggin adorable. There seems to be less clothing options, sadly, but you can change her hairstyle a lot (lots of colour options, about six style options. they're all p. good tho)

*: (free as in ad supported, with microtransactions :| fairly cheap ones mind you, and any purchase allows you to turn off ads entirely, but still...)
