@maple oh cool!

unfortunately I can't usually play on servers that are overseas, it either causes lag for me or lag for everyone else ::(

currently conflicted between playing vanilla 1.14 or modded 1.12

I've been playing vanilla 1.14 - it looks so much better, and has so many additions over 1.12 that I just really like.

But I miss lots of things - I miss:
• having more than a couple of types of ores
• lots of interesting devices to construct
• a minimap.

idk what to do, really.

And I'm not really sure which modpack I should play

@InspectorCaracal omg

@boobs_idiot@octodon.social that's so horrible!!

@BatElite *it just keeps going and going and going*

I also like that, unlike other games which allow you to make levels, each level is supposed to be a large-ish self-contained story.

Rather than stuff like Mario Maker, where you can only make one small level and you can't really tell much of a story.

The level that's included with the game, "The Machine", took me around 1.5 hours to finish, and that wasn't because it was hard, it was because that's just how long it is.

Something I like about it is that, while it's a platformer, it's a bit more suited to explanation than to precise jumps, which makes it more relaxing to play.

I also really like the powerups that level creators can give to the player – they're an interesting selection of things:

• wall-climbing
• larger jumps
• double jumps
• an umbrella (to slow your fall)
• a third eye (to make invisible things visible)
• an enemy-detector
• a hologram creator

finally got around to playing Knytt Stories again (which wsa suggested by @typhlosion )

it's really really good!

Although, due to it's age, if you want to try it, I'd suggest getting Knytt Stories+ and setting it to Zoom mode (otherwise it's in a window that's way too tiny on modern screens)

@BatElite oooo

Microblogging platforms (like Mastodon or Twitter) don't allow you to distinguish between:
• a post
• a comment on a post
• a discussion

All three things are presented the same way and follow the same rules, unlike actual blogging platforms, or forums
