[00:00.000 –> 00:02.000] Do
[00:19.360 –> 00:21.360] Do
[00:30.080 –> 00:33.680] Hello farmers and welcome to another episode of the harvest season
[00:34.360 –> 00:39.480] My name is Al and my name is Cody and we are here to talk about
[00:40.000 –> 00:43.120] Cottagecore games all the cottagecore games
[00:43.640 –> 00:50.600] So much a million of them so much news and we are also here to remember how to podcast
[00:54.080 –> 00:57.560] Was the last episode you did with me the last one I did with you oh no
[01:00.000 –> 01:02.000] The
[01:02.560 –> 01:04.880] Last episode I did
[01:05.800 –> 01:10.180] Think was no, I I don’t even know I don’t even know
[01:11.160 –> 01:14.260] But the last episode is funny because people will be hearing
[01:14.960 –> 01:17.900] The last yeah that we did and then they’re gonna hear this
[01:17.900 –> 01:22.000] I was what so that’s what I was trying to ask was that last episode that you did
[01:22.200 –> 01:27.440] The last episode that I did with you can record farming simulator with Johnny after in between. Oh, really?
[01:27.440 –> 01:30.680] I honestly can’t remember though. How early did we record the last episode?
[01:30.680 –> 01:36.360] I don’t know my word. I was just listening to it the other day because it’s so fun when for the listeners
[01:36.360 –> 01:41.360] I usually don’t listen to podcasts. I’m on but if they were recorded months before
[01:42.880 –> 01:44.280] Months
[01:44.280 –> 01:48.320] Absolutely months. It’s like it’s it’s like a whole new conversation
[01:48.920 –> 01:54.640] Cuz my brain has forgotten it and it was also really funny to hear like what have you been playing?
[01:55.080 –> 01:57.240] Kind of things and I’m like, oh wow
[01:57.520 –> 02:04.800] Like the last episode I was talking about the game pass and how excited I was and I’m like I have not done anything
[02:07.840 –> 02:13.180] It was it was two months ago, it was the the 16th of June we recorded that episode
[02:13.840 –> 02:14.960] which
[02:14.960 –> 02:20.720] Which was what to be two episodes before the farming thing. I’ve done a couple since then as well
[02:20.720 –> 02:28.160] But anyway, that’s my point is it’s been what about six weeks at least been a minute since either of us are podcasted
[02:28.160 –> 02:30.160] So this is a hot mess
[02:30.740 –> 02:32.740] Buckle in you’re here for the ride
[02:33.680 –> 02:37.220] There’s transcripts on the show notes and on the website
[02:37.840 –> 02:42.060] If you’re listening on YouTube, there should be there should be auto-generated transcript there as well
[02:43.400 –> 02:45.400] Who knows how well it does with my voice?
[02:47.000 –> 02:49.000] Does things do things not
[02:50.760 –> 02:56.000] Things have gone a lot better in the last few years, but yeah, there was a point where like most of the like
[02:56.600 –> 03:00.640] Voice related stuff just did not work at all for Scottish accents
[03:02.120 –> 03:07.740] Like you would say something and it would think you said something completely different. Have you ever tried speaking properly?
[03:12.920 –> 03:14.920] So, what are we talking about today?
[03:16.680 –> 03:18.840] An American told me to speak properly
[03:21.440 –> 03:25.100] You know right after I said that I was like is that the right way to phrase that word
[03:26.960 –> 03:28.960] It’s a good thing you didn’t say proper
[03:30.000 –> 03:36.340] I like to speak proper. You gotta talk right proper there. I don’t know why you went, Texas
[03:39.000 –> 03:41.360] Listeners didn’t hear our conversation before this Cody
[03:42.700 –> 03:46.320] Anyone not from Texas has a lot of disdain for Texas
[03:47.140 –> 03:49.780] We love our Texan listeners. Mm-hmm
[03:50.180 –> 03:52.920] Because we know that there are the good ones because I guess
[03:53.740 –> 03:57.340] The amount of stuff we’ve said in this podcast the non good ones are not listening anymore
[04:01.460 –> 04:07.500] Listeners who are listening to this will probably agree that Texas even the ones that live in Texas
[04:08.980 –> 04:14.660] Correct, I’m just here because my family’s here and I love them and maybe we can make Texas better
[04:14.660 –> 04:21.660] We’re gonna talk about news because it has been
[04:22.260 –> 04:28.040] At least a month since any news and it’s been about six weeks since any instance a decent amount of news
[04:28.300 –> 04:31.260] Because I completely forgot to go through the news for the episode that was four weeks ago
[04:31.580 –> 04:35.540] So they just got three pieces of news that we could remember off the top of our heads
[04:37.620 –> 04:39.620] So now we’ve got the rest of the news
[04:39.820 –> 04:42.260] So Buckland’s gonna be great. But first of all
[04:42.780 –> 04:44.780] Cody what have you been up to I
[04:45.360 –> 04:47.620] have passed my comps and
[04:48.600 –> 04:51.380] So now it’s all like getting work done
[04:51.500 –> 04:57.600] So I’ve there are a couple of projects that I’ve had that I’ve like been on the back burner and I just I made
[04:57.900 –> 05:03.700] Meetings for them and I was like, hey, I haven’t been able to do this because I was doing my comps, but now I’m done
[05:03.700 –> 05:05.980] Let’s get this stuff done. Like let’s go
[05:07.020 –> 05:10.280] And trying to get those off my plate. That’s really cool
[05:11.000 –> 05:15.000] I haven’t really been playing anything that many game Pokemon go
[05:15.560 –> 05:19.320] I’m actually going to go fast in New York City. So whoo
[05:19.960 –> 05:26.760] You’re going fast go go to the fast Pokemon go to New York City
[05:27.880 –> 05:32.860] yeah, so that’ll be I I’m gonna say it’ll be fun even if the game itself is
[05:33.760 –> 05:38.920] Buggy or if there are issues or whatever, it’s still gonna be fun because there’s you know members from our
[05:40.400 –> 05:44.320] It’s super effective community or going and we’re all gonna meet up and hang out and it’s gonna be great
[05:45.400 –> 05:51.920] I’m super sad that I couldn’t justify the cost. Yes. It was like 700 quid to fly there. Yeah
[05:52.720 –> 05:56.680] it’s easy for me because my partner lives there and
[05:57.120 –> 06:01.720] So I literally just have to get a bus there and then I don’t have to worry about anything else
[06:02.320 –> 06:04.640] because like I already kind of know how to do and I
[06:05.360 –> 06:07.360] know how to get around I
[06:07.900 –> 06:11.040] Can just stay with him because places there are super expensive
[06:12.040 –> 06:16.800] And the buses yeah that I’ve also played this game Tetris
[06:16.800 –> 06:21.880] This is the one that either might just be official Tetris or might be a scam and we’re not sure
[06:22.400 –> 06:24.400] I’d still think it’s a scam
[06:24.600 –> 06:30.840] Like anything that promises you a cruise for playing a game a certain amount feels like a scam
[06:30.960 –> 06:34.720] Well, so I was talking to someone about it about how like basically how they do that is
[06:35.200 –> 06:42.720] How you is you’re playing and as you’re playing you’re watching ads so they’re earning ad revenue sure sure sure
[06:42.720 –> 06:44.400] But it’s a cruise
[06:44.400 –> 06:47.080] right well, and I looked at the the
[06:48.320 –> 06:50.920] fine print and basically pays for an
[06:51.560 –> 06:53.560] inner cabin
[06:53.560 –> 06:55.680] room so like you don’t have a window and
[06:56.400 –> 07:03.260] It’s one of those rooms for you and one other person, but you still have to pay like all of these scam which
[07:04.220 –> 07:08.740] The room itself I went the room itself is like $1,000 per person. Oh
[07:09.780 –> 07:11.100] so
[07:11.100 –> 07:17.900] I’m fine with saving two grand because the rest of the fees are like $20 a day for this dude
[07:17.900 –> 07:20.340] did you do for this like things like that and
[07:20.900 –> 07:25.640] basically if I can if I not if when I
[07:27.020 –> 07:29.020] So optimist
[07:30.020 –> 07:32.020] Or in this cruise and buy it
[07:32.940 –> 07:38.960] Jeff is yeah, I’m it, but when I last played I was at like 30,000 points, and I’m now at almost
[07:39.680 –> 07:41.360] 250,000 points so
[07:41.360 –> 07:48.140] Cruises in sight y’all I’m a quarter of the way to one of the cheaper ones, but and what’s the deadline for it?
[07:48.140 –> 07:52.780] Oh, I mean they have like rolling deadlines, so if you want to go, so what’s the deadline for the cruise?
[07:53.060 –> 07:58.660] Yeah, there will be another one after after this step another cruise or another thing to replace the crew
[07:58.700 –> 08:01.180] Another crew to your point. I feel like your points will release
[08:01.180 –> 08:06.140] I don’t think the points if I wake up one day and these points are gone. I’m just honest
[08:06.140 –> 08:11.840] I don’t I’m just I’m just so convinced that there’s gonna be a catch somewhere and it’s like
[08:13.340 –> 08:20.020] Otherwise everything reset no I super agree so this one there is one here the cruise must be booked by
[08:20.900 –> 08:27.780] September 25th, I believe the last time we talked about this the cruise had to be booked by August so they just have
[08:28.920 –> 08:34.860] Current like rolling ones or whatever, but you go through all these different places in Alaska, which is cool
[08:37.260 –> 08:41.360] But yeah, I’m also waiting for the catch all right well
[08:41.360 –> 08:46.260] I look forward to hearing that you finally get on the cruise, and then you have to pay a thousand pounds to get off the
[08:46.260 –> 08:48.100] cruise
[08:48.100 –> 08:50.100] We didn’t say you could leave
[08:52.740 –> 08:55.260] Pay for your freedom, so what have you been up to?
[08:56.260 –> 09:02.420] I’ve been playing on my switch you and on holiday. I did go on holiday. I didn’t really play anything while on holiday. I’m so bad
[09:04.420 –> 09:08.740] Doing anything while on holiday, but this is the first recording since you got your switch back
[09:08.740 –> 09:14.020] So I think it is switch so so I got my switch back, but it wasn’t my switch
[09:14.020 –> 09:14.880] It was another switch
[09:14.880 –> 09:22.260] They just replaced the switch, but did you get like so I remember that you had a limited edition one did you yeah?
[09:22.260 –> 09:26.980] Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, yeah, they gave me a like for like but okay. I mean I wasn’t worried about that because
[09:27.740 –> 09:32.060] like it was new enough that I would just like I would go back to the the
[09:33.140 –> 09:37.540] Retailer that I bought it from like it’s been less than a year. I’m not I wasn’t worried about that okay
[09:38.500 –> 09:44.300] What I’m sad about is that I had obviously no saves left on it because there were is a new switch
[09:45.540 –> 09:49.620] So I had lost all of my Pokemon saves except
[09:50.300 –> 09:54.980] My Pokemon sword because that is on another switch for shiny hunting and
[09:55.780 –> 09:59.360] My Pokemon brilliant diamond. Yeah ones that I’ve just like
[10:00.060 –> 10:05.700] That don’t really do anything with anymore, so I lost my scarlet which had a hundred fifty hours
[10:05.700 –> 10:08.540] and I lost my violet and I lost my
[10:10.500 –> 10:12.500] Pikachu, let’s go Pikachu
[10:12.900 –> 10:17.620] Which I had like 300 hours on and my let’s go Eevee
[10:17.620 –> 10:21.460] Which didn’t have a lot on it, but it was like halfway through a Professor Oak challenge on that one
[10:21.460 –> 10:26.260] And it had two shiny Pokemon that hadn’t transferred off and I lost my legends Arceus
[10:27.660 –> 10:32.540] What is the lesson to be learned there is no lesson to be learned here? There’s nothing you can do to fix this
[10:32.540 –> 10:37.440] There’s no option because they don’t let you move the saves off right? That’s the thing
[10:37.440 –> 10:42.460] That’s what so you can you can transfer Pokemon saves between switches, but you have to do that
[10:42.980 –> 10:44.980] At the time your switch is working
[10:45.660 –> 10:49.100] Right you cannot back them up there is no way to back up Pokemon save
[10:49.100 –> 10:51.960] They just don’t let you do it and then when you go and send in your switch
[10:51.960 –> 10:53.860] You’re like oh we might wipe your switch
[10:53.860 –> 10:57.120] You might not be able to keep everything make sure you back up, and I’m like how?
[10:57.860 –> 11:02.380] How am I meant to do that and then you send it in and they don’t they don’t back it up?
[11:02.380 –> 11:07.800] And then they just give you a new switch because it’s like oh, we don’t actually care about this, so it’s just oh
[11:08.180 –> 11:09.180] No, there’s no way
[11:09.180 –> 11:11.700] This is the thing there’s no lesson to be learned the lesson to be learned is
[11:12.140 –> 11:16.340] Nintendo and Pokemon both suck, and I hate them both. I’m very annoyed
[11:17.020 –> 11:19.980] But so I played through Pokemon scarlet. I just kind of like
[11:20.420 –> 11:27.340] Sped run it I got someone to pump some vitamins into my no vitamins some XP candy into my my Pokemon
[11:28.780 –> 11:30.780] to speed run it and
[11:31.900 –> 11:36.020] Just yeah, I did it so I’ve now got to the point where I can actually do all of the raids
[11:37.020 –> 11:39.020] I
[11:39.140 –> 11:45.340] I’ve not done Scott. No I was violated not scarlet was violated like that. I might do scarlet at some point
[11:45.340 –> 11:49.860] I’ve done scarlet as far as I can like redeem online stuff, so I got the second
[11:50.460 –> 11:58.360] But I don’t have energy for any I I haven’t even I’m still I still haven’t finished area zero
[11:58.360 –> 12:00.740] I don’t even think I’ve gotten to areas
[12:00.740 –> 12:01.900] Oh
[12:01.900 –> 12:03.900] Cody
[12:03.900 –> 12:05.300] I need to finish
[12:05.300 –> 12:08.320] I know I’ve heard but yeah, so I played these games three times now
[12:08.320 –> 12:11.860] And I’m going to end up doing a fourth at some point, but who knows when I have them
[12:12.700 –> 12:20.020] So and today I started playing Pikmin 4 whoo which is interesting because I was talking about this in the slacks
[12:20.020 –> 12:23.460] And I was like I don’t understand why this game has multiple tutorials
[12:23.460 –> 12:28.260] So you start the game up, and it’s like a tutorial with a little bit backstory as to how you get to this game
[12:28.260 –> 12:32.620] And you’re like okay cool. This is nice. This is a good tutorial because it’s like oh you got this little area
[12:32.620 –> 12:34.580] You can run around and then it teaches stuff as you go
[12:34.580 –> 12:39.500] It doesn’t ever stops you doing something it just kind of shows things on the screen and then eventually once you’ve done everything
[12:39.820 –> 12:43.740] you then get through and you go through the next bit story, and then it takes you to the
[12:44.260 –> 12:49.140] First level and the first level is a tutorial and you’re like I don’t understand. Why is this a tutorial and this is a
[12:50.180 –> 12:54.260] Infinitely worst tutorial because you basically you walk ten steps
[12:54.260 –> 12:57.340] And then it pauses shows a cutscene tells you how to do something
[12:57.340 –> 13:02.780] They already taught you how to do and then you walk another ten steps it pauses have the cutscene
[13:03.260 –> 13:07.120] Bunch of nonsense and then tells you how to do a thing that you already know how to do
[13:07.120 –> 13:10.580] And I’m just like I don’t understand. It’s not even like other games have better
[13:11.260 –> 13:18.260] Tutorials this game has a better tutorial than it does like I don’t know how do you make both of those tutorials one?
[13:18.260 –> 13:23.220] Which is terrible one which is great, and then just keep them both. I don’t understand
[13:23.860 –> 13:30.540] Bizarre so I was enjoying it now. I’m not enjoying it. Hopefully I can get through the tutorial and start enjoying it again
[13:34.260 –> 13:37.700] Should we talk about some news yeah, we got a lot of news oh
[13:38.600 –> 13:40.600] Right moon drop
[13:41.060 –> 13:43.060] 1.0 is it
[13:43.100 –> 13:48.180] Except it’s still in early access. Maybe no it looks like they’ve clicked the button
[13:48.180 –> 13:49.820] It does look like it’s yeah
[13:49.820 –> 13:54.780] So they had said at the end if you still see the game labeled as early to access on steam there was a slight hiccup
[13:54.780 –> 13:57.980] With the price increase valve needs to approve the increase which I expect to happen later today
[13:57.980 –> 14:01.700] So like that should be fixed now, so it should just be version 1.0
[14:01.700 –> 14:06.740] Yeah, and I don’t understand like at the top of their thing. It’s version 1.0 because I commit crimes
[14:06.740 –> 14:13.980] I think I suspect this is our or it’s not the first version right because 1.0 is like the first version
[14:14.180 –> 14:20.180] Okay, I think it’s pretty common to be like this is the point where we will hit like the first full version and
[14:20.660 –> 14:25.440] Even though there might be news to like it’s yeah, I mean I can argue for hours about version numbers
[14:25.440 –> 14:30.420] I don’t care like if you’re if you’re if your first version outside of early access is 1.0. That’s fine. I’m fine
[14:30.420 –> 14:31.260] I don’t care about that
[14:31.260 –> 14:36.400] There are so many more things to be annoyed about which I will definitely be annoyed about at some point. Yeah for sure
[14:37.280 –> 14:44.960] The mutating mountain farm yeah, I’m not a huge fan of the look of this game like just the graphics
[14:45.960 –> 14:51.480] It’s not and this is not to be mean, but it’s not like the cute 8-bit graphics
[14:51.480 –> 14:57.000] It’s like yeah, the shifting mountain sounds interesting. Yeah, but there needs to be more
[14:57.000 –> 15:02.360] I think I’m don’t think I’m gonna to me. It sounds chaos like which is going to appeal to some people
[15:02.480 –> 15:04.920] Yeah, it’s a challenge, but for me. I’m like
[15:05.400 –> 15:10.920] I would rather play a cozy catch butterflies and look at butterflies king
[15:10.960 –> 15:13.280] What a coincidence do I have the game for you?
[15:15.080 –> 15:17.080] Flutter away
[15:17.120 –> 15:23.560] This game is also right now. I think this game came out like two days after the last episode where we had any news and
[15:24.520 –> 15:31.300] Yeah, well no this isn’t released August 3rd, so yeah, yeah, it’s I mean it’s currently August 17th
[15:35.160 –> 15:41.160] Anyway, yeah, this is the cute little there’s a capybara friend and you’re trying to find butterflies
[15:41.280 –> 15:45.380] You’re filling a deck. Yeah, like kind of a decks like one of the
[15:46.760 –> 15:49.640] pages of your journal that you saw I kind of like paused the
[15:50.000 –> 15:53.160] trailer and I read a little bit and it was really cool because it was telling you like
[15:54.160 –> 15:59.320] Information about the rainforest and about what the rainforest peoples calls these better call these butterflies. Yeah
[16:00.200 –> 16:02.240] So yeah, it is now available on
[16:03.160 –> 16:05.160] Switch for $12.99
[16:06.120 –> 16:08.200] and steam for $12.99 and
[16:08.640 –> 16:15.560] I will say on steam will on Mac and PC which is always good to know for those of us that have max as their prime
[16:15.880 –> 16:19.480] And you can pet the capybara. So if you’re a big fan of the Twitter
[16:20.280 –> 16:22.420] Slash-x slash whatever we want to call it page
[16:23.080 –> 16:25.080] Can you pet the dog?
[16:25.320 –> 16:27.320] Happy bar it yeah
[16:27.960 –> 16:29.960] This reminds me a lot of
[16:29.980 –> 16:33.500] Yes, it does in a good way big thing. It’s on my maybe list
[16:34.080 –> 16:40.100] Palio have announced that they’re coming to switch and I think this is the first time where they’ve said a release
[16:40.960 –> 16:44.360] Timeline they’ve said that it’s releasing holiday season
[16:45.120 –> 16:46.840] 2023
[16:46.840 –> 16:50.520] Which presumably it like this is just about switch, right?
[16:50.520 –> 16:56.760] It says Palio will be available on Nintendo switch this holiday season to presumably that also means that the steam version will be released
[16:56.920 –> 16:58.920] Some people are already playing it
[16:59.120 –> 17:00.520] Yeah, it’s in early access
[17:00.520 –> 17:05.320] But yeah, they do it like it would be weird if they released on switch because you’re not allowed
[17:05.840 –> 17:09.800] Ignoring the fact that there’s new dreamlike Valley is in this weird situation
[17:09.960 –> 17:15.200] And I don’t know why like I suspect the only reason that it’s allowed to do it is because it’s Disney
[17:16.400 –> 17:21.240] It would be then you’re not technically allowed to have early access games on switch
[17:21.320 –> 17:23.320] So they would have to say it’s finished
[17:23.560 –> 17:28.440] Right and it would be weird for the steam version to still be an early access when I mean they do that though
[17:28.440 –> 17:33.300] Like they have games come out and they’re available and then they have plans to port it elsewhere
[17:33.440 –> 17:37.600] Yeah, but it’s not but that’s not that’s the wrong way. Like it’s already a wrong way
[17:38.460 –> 17:40.460] Like isn’t it?
[17:41.640 –> 17:43.760] It’s just their website you just do
[17:44.880 –> 17:50.280] Interest. Okay, so it’s gonna be an exclusive to switch. I believe so, but it’s an open beta now
[17:50.600 –> 17:55.040] But it’s only on the website. So yeah, I haven’t played it
[17:55.600 –> 17:59.700] But I have a friend that has a reference code and she’s like gonna give it to me when
[18:00.640 –> 18:05.720] Because I said I wanted to wait for it to be on steam or sorry switch. I want switch
[18:06.400 –> 18:12.760] So once it’s on switch, I’ll I’ll jump into this game 100% so yeah, it’s gonna scratch that
[18:14.000 –> 18:17.720] World of Warcraft itch. Yeah, cuz it’s Philly. Mm all isn’t
[18:18.600 –> 18:20.600] Mm-hmm, which means that I probably
[18:21.320 –> 18:24.640] But well, it’ll be all me and it’ll be cross play. So it’ll be great
[18:24.640 –> 18:29.600] I look forward to hearing about it when you play it next. We have sprite Valley, which fun fact
[18:29.600 –> 18:34.860] I don’t know how if I’ve ever said this in the podcast before I may have may have not stardew valley’s original name was
[18:34.860 –> 18:37.460] Sprout Valley. This is not that this is a separate game
[18:38.200 –> 18:39.840] Sprout Valley
[18:39.840 –> 18:45.100] Is a pixel art one a pixel art farming game. Stop me if you’ve heard that before
[18:45.100 –> 18:57.260] As an off-handed comment in our kickstarter update we are planning to release this fall
[18:57.940 –> 19:01.660] Like it doesn’t it doesn’t say it’s not like it’s titled August update
[19:01.660 –> 19:05.660] What are we working on and then they talk about a bunch of stuff and they’re like we’re planning to release this fall
[19:05.660 –> 19:12.020] And then there’s just more words after that and I’m like, oh, okay. This is why I read all the words in these updates
[19:12.860 –> 19:19.100] Specifically it’s specifically said this month is not much going on in terms of updates. We’re planning to release
[19:20.500 –> 19:22.500] What are you doing then?
[19:22.860 –> 19:26.380] Bizarre, so yeah, apparently that’s a thing that’s happening
[19:28.260 –> 19:32.020] Cool nothing else to say about that one just now the palace on the hill
[19:33.300 –> 19:37.740] We got the first information about release date and then that is delayed. So
[19:38.660 –> 19:42.020] Well, they specifically said that so they have a prologue
[19:42.020 –> 19:46.660] Yeah, you can play on Steam and they got a lot of really good feedback from the prologue
[19:46.660 –> 19:51.900] and so now that since they’re trying to incorporate the feedback that they got from the prologue, they’re going to
[19:53.420 –> 19:55.320] Extend the date
[19:55.320 –> 20:01.340] Yeah, I’m not I’m not complaining about that. It’s funny how they had never publicly said that they were planning to release in August
[20:01.900 –> 20:07.440] It’s just this tweet is the first time they’d said that and in the city in the next sentence and for same sentence
[20:08.500 –> 20:12.860] They’re delaying. So it was just funny how you’re like, oh, they’re planning to release in August. Oh, no, they’re not anymore
[20:13.660 –> 20:15.660] Like it’s just a little bit of whiplash there
[20:16.740 –> 20:20.980] So yeah, there’s there’s there’s no date just now, but that’s fine
[20:22.780 –> 20:29.140] That’s good that they’re taking the feedback from the prologue it still looks really cute is that Xbox news new yeah, okay
[20:29.140 –> 20:34.580] So it’s coming to Xbox. We didn’t know that before I lose track. There’s too many games to keep track of 91
[20:34.580 –> 20:36.140] I know have in my list
[20:36.140 –> 20:38.140] We can add to it
[20:38.780 –> 20:40.780] Ova Magica
[20:40.820 –> 20:43.940] Has been delayed so 2024. I’m not surprised
[20:43.940 –> 20:47.060] I think we’re gonna get a lot of this over the next couple of months because we still have
[20:47.860 –> 20:49.860] 22 that have just said
[20:49.980 –> 20:51.020] 2023
[20:51.020 –> 20:56.180] And nothing else and then we have like another 15 that are meant to be coming out this year
[20:56.740 –> 20:59.880] So I suspect at least 20 of them will be delayed
[21:00.580 –> 21:03.640] Because we’re we’re in August now. Yeah
[21:03.960 –> 21:10.920] And I just I commented that the for Ova Magica on the delay the update mention about this
[21:12.360 –> 21:18.220] The response from all the factors backers was largely positive and I just wanted to shout out over magic here because that they are
[21:18.560 –> 21:25.920] Doing really well about being having open open and honest communication about where the game is and what what exactly they’ve been working on
[21:26.000 –> 21:30.920] Yeah, and it’s all stuff that people have been asking about. It’s not out of the blue
[21:30.920 –> 21:37.160] It’s and everyone’s just like yeah. Yeah, take your time. Like we’re just really excited for this game. So yeah be
[21:38.480 –> 21:40.480] Honest as we’ve discussed before
[21:41.320 –> 21:44.000] Communication can do a massive thing, you know
[21:44.000 –> 21:48.680] You don’t have to end up in the situation that some game developers do when they don’t say anything people get annoyed
[21:48.680 –> 21:50.220] Well, and it’s not just game developers
[21:50.220 –> 21:56.680] I was just having this conversation the other day with someone about authors because I read books and it’s often
[21:56.920 –> 22:02.240] Multiple book series and then you have an author that just goes AWOL for a decade
[22:02.760 –> 22:09.080] Where they’re like, oh I’m working on it and I’m like, okay in the time that you have been quote-unquote working on this one book
[22:09.080 –> 22:14.720] This other dude has put out 20 books. So like what and it’s not even it’s not even nice
[22:14.720 –> 22:17.380] also when they then go and do like other things like, you know,
[22:17.380 –> 22:24.820] They make a TV series based on their book and then they write other books. And then there’s another TV series about their other book
[22:25.340 –> 22:28.780] Not I was actually not talking about Martin
[22:28.780 –> 22:33.100] I know but I know it but he is another great example of that of like, okay
[22:33.100 –> 22:35.100] But like we are still waiting
[22:36.580 –> 22:39.240] Like even just saying hey
[22:40.220 –> 22:41.660] the
[22:41.660 –> 22:47.620] Stories gotten away from me or hey, this is taking a little bit longer or something like that like yeah
[22:47.620 –> 22:49.840] We know that these things happen writers block happens
[22:50.480 –> 22:55.280] Literally our phrase that’s coined that’s used in other places because of that, right?
[22:55.280 –> 23:01.880] You just need to say it like I’m stuck and I thought that doing a second project would be great like cool or hey
[23:01.880 –> 23:03.880] I’m making lots of money on this other one
[23:08.120 –> 23:12.880] Great annoy people but it’s less annoying than just saying nothing. Yeah
[23:13.600 –> 23:16.220] But yeah, so over magica thumbs up
[23:17.080 –> 23:19.080] for talking about agreed
[23:19.280 –> 23:25.880] Thumbs down for having games that release on the 28th of September this week. Oh my word Cody, right?
[23:25.880 –> 23:31.920] So wild vendor have announced that their game is releasing on the 28th of September 28th of September that might sound similar
[23:31.920 –> 23:35.460] You say well, it’s not it’s not the day that
[23:36.100 –> 23:41.220] Mannequins night market harvest me in the winds of anthos paleo pines and my time a sand rock is releasing. It’s not that day
[23:41.220 –> 23:43.220] It’s not the same. It’s two days after that
[23:43.220 –> 23:45.220] Oh
[23:47.300 –> 23:49.700] My word that week is I just
[23:50.340 –> 23:54.340] Heard we’ve got the Tuesday got four games coming out the Thursday. We’ve got another game coming out
[23:56.060 –> 24:01.740] Look I’m sorry, but Mannequins night market still Trump’s ever. Yeah, not about Wild Mender
[24:01.740 –> 24:06.240] Let me let me clarify the thumbs down is not for Wild Mender. It’s just for the date
[24:06.300 –> 24:10.260] Yeah, and I hadn’t heard about Wild Mender. So I’m just gonna blurb it real quick
[24:10.780 –> 24:14.680] Do you want me to no no, no, so I was just I was still just exact
[24:15.380 –> 24:19.960] Exasperated by that week. I just like just before just just hate game developers
[24:20.100 –> 24:25.100] See if you’re like, oh, I don’t know when other games are releasing right and I don’t want to overload things
[24:25.100 –> 24:29.200] I have a list come and talk to me. I have a list of
[24:30.220 –> 24:32.220] 91 games
[24:32.420 –> 24:38.500] 91 and you know what actually if you pay to pay on my patreon you can get the list and see it I have
[24:38.780 –> 24:41.740] 91 games if you’re a game developer come and talk to me
[24:41.740 –> 24:46.980] I’ll tell you when there are games because there are a lot of games coming out and we don’t want you
[24:47.500 –> 24:49.500] Releasing at the same time, please
[24:49.500 –> 24:55.120] Yeah, well and not only because we are overloaded as players but like that’s not gonna be good for you
[24:55.120 –> 24:59.140] I mean if you’re not at this point Mannequins night market then
[24:59.900 –> 25:04.860] You’re gonna be like man release was really thin and be like, hmm
[25:04.860 –> 25:09.660] There’s a reason for that and it starts with M and ends with an echoes night market
[25:12.420 –> 25:19.220] Why wild vendor quote is a desert gardening survival game where you’ll get to start from a small spring in a
[25:19.260 –> 25:21.820] barren desert and grow it into a blossoming oasis
[25:21.820 –> 25:27.340] Search the desert around you for valuable seeds to grow a new place to craft a range of useful items as you explore the desert
[25:27.340 –> 25:34.140] You’ll find adorable wildlife to befriend secrets to uncover an ancient deities to ally with just remember to take a full water bottle and fluent
[25:34.420 –> 25:35.460] food
[25:35.460 –> 25:41.660] Yeah, it’s basically an open-world game where you’re turning a desert into not a desert. Yeah, and there I mean first of all
[25:42.300 –> 25:46.780] Mmm, sometimes deserts need to be deserts. They’re also an ecosystem, but second of all
[25:48.660 –> 25:51.980] It looked really cool like there was like a magic system or something to it
[25:51.980 –> 25:55.220] Like some of the creatures are like magical like little wispy things flying around
[25:55.700 –> 26:00.620] You were flying around at one point and I don’t know if that’s with tech or if it’s just that you’re able to fly
[26:01.420 –> 26:03.580] But it just yeah, so I’m guessing
[26:04.500 –> 26:06.500] related to the whole like
[26:06.500 –> 26:07.940] Don’t get rid of all the deserts
[26:07.940 –> 26:13.660] I’m guessing that this is like a or this is not how the world used to be and we’re now kind of like
[26:13.740 –> 26:18.280] Returning it to what it was which obviously still has its issues humans messing around with things
[26:19.340 –> 26:23.820] Generally causes issues, even if you think you’re like fixing the problems that you caused in the first place
[26:25.180 –> 26:28.480] But yeah, I don’t think it’s just like oh, here’s a desert. Let’s get rid of a desert
[26:28.480 –> 26:30.480] Deserts are stupid, no they’re not
[26:32.440 –> 26:33.700] Stupid deserts
[26:33.700 –> 26:35.280] Awesome
[26:35.280 –> 26:39.400] Okay, so that’s all of the release news for like games
[26:39.840 –> 26:45.800] We then have a bunch of information about some updates slash DLC. So we have another lens island update
[26:45.800 –> 26:53.400] This one is called the cursed underworld update and it’s releasing on the 10th of September and Cody you’ve you you’ve played this game
[26:54.240 –> 26:56.960] It create includes a new mode
[26:57.560 –> 26:58.800] And
[26:58.800 –> 27:03.840] Instead of the underground cave network being static, which is what it was when I played it
[27:03.840 –> 27:09.900] It is now gonna be procedural but you can also if you don’t want things to attack you you can have a peaceful game mode
[27:10.360 –> 27:12.360] you can enchant weapons and
[27:13.160 –> 27:16.520] There’s I don’t know what improved survival mechanics is, but I’m here for it
[27:18.240 –> 27:24.040] It sounds good, I like to survive in a survivor game I like to survive and if it’s improved that’s cool
[27:24.040 –> 27:26.160] No, um, I don’t know
[27:26.160 –> 27:32.320] I just I haven’t taken the time to play this in a while as they creep towards a 1.0 question mark, right?
[27:32.320 –> 27:37.560] They’re not ready. They’re not in 1.0 yet. They’re not. Oh, yeah. No, this is uh, this is a early access update
[27:37.740 –> 27:42.520] every time I see new things, I’m just so jazzed and
[27:43.340 –> 27:45.280] to see things
[27:45.280 –> 27:47.280] Develop from where they started
[27:47.680 –> 27:51.360] And know that even when it started it was a pretty fun game
[27:51.360 –> 27:53.640] Like it was just that there were a couple things that
[27:54.440 –> 27:59.760] That were closed off. But other than that, like yeah, I saw where to go. I saw what to do. So
[28:00.320 –> 28:04.220] And I was enjoying doing it. So yeah super excited
[28:05.280 –> 28:10.080] To play this and the trailer looks really cool. So I need to jump back in. Yeah
[28:11.000 –> 28:15.800] Yeah, they’ve generally I think it’s been generally been a good a good early access
[28:15.800 –> 28:20.000] My one complaint is they launched without controller support when I first played it
[28:20.000 –> 28:23.920] I was like, this is horrific to try and play on my Steam Deck. Like this is just
[28:24.680 –> 28:27.840] Horrible, they now have controller support. I’ve just not gone back yet
[28:28.800 –> 28:30.620] above snakes
[28:30.620 –> 28:32.620] Also has an update
[28:32.960 –> 28:34.720] 1.2 update
[28:34.720 –> 28:38.440] Which it doesn’t have a name, but does have some stuff
[28:38.600 –> 28:42.360] So as usual they’re adding more pieces to add to your world
[28:42.680 –> 28:46.220] because if you don’t remember above snakes is the game that it’s like a
[28:46.220 –> 28:50.580] Cell based how would you piece like puzzle?
[28:50.580 –> 28:54.820] It’s like it’s like a game board and you’re like adding squares to your board
[28:55.300 –> 28:59.980] And there’s like a limited number of different things you can do. So they’ve added a bunch more and
[29:01.540 –> 29:08.860] Japanese localizations, so if you only speak Japanese, which you probably don’t because you’re listening to this podcast you can now play the game
[29:09.540 –> 29:15.460] Or if you are learning Japanese and you want to do that because I know some people like to do that
[29:15.460 –> 29:19.140] That’s also a way to do that. Yeah, I guess like the one question that I have from
[29:19.780 –> 29:25.260] This is oh, so there are two new desert world pieces specifically desert. I guess that was
[29:25.900 –> 29:29.940] That answers my question. I was like, what what world pieces are there?
[29:29.940 –> 29:31.740] Because if you just go based on this picture
[29:31.740 –> 29:36.140] it would be like some type of foresty one and then some type of fossil e-desert e1 but
[29:36.780 –> 29:44.380] It says added two new desert world pieces that unlocked after placing the first different kinds of desert because desert is important ecosystem
[29:44.380 –> 29:50.460] I feel a theme sundown survivor. Sorry. Yeah, just sorry just the above snakes updates out now sundown
[29:55.580 –> 29:57.140] Probably not
[29:57.140 –> 30:04.780] 1.3 zone a I still don’t really know about this game. It’s a very stressful game. Yeah, it looks like it’s an intense
[30:05.540 –> 30:10.660] I don’t know. I guess I haven’t looked at it more closely. I’m just reading the balance changes
[30:10.660 –> 30:14.140] They did a lot of like some things got nerfed some things got that got boosted
[30:14.140 –> 30:16.380] But then I saw this word mammoth
[30:18.020 –> 30:20.480] Mammoth my moose. What is mammoth?
[30:21.260 –> 30:27.980] Muth’s HP. Is it a mammoth and a cow? I you have my attention. I don’t want to play this game
[30:28.980 –> 30:30.980] Listeners if you have played sundown
[30:31.580 –> 30:36.140] Survivors, is it sundown or sundown survivors? It was called sundown
[30:36.140 –> 30:42.060] It’s now called sundown survivors, but they don’t see have changed the name. It’s a roguelike. I don’t want to play it
[30:42.100 –> 30:44.100] Okay, if you have played sundown
[30:44.580 –> 30:49.860] Tell us tell us what mammoth is because I have a curiosity. I
[30:51.220 –> 30:53.800] But limited time they did this annoying thing
[30:54.360 –> 30:57.280] Where they changed the name and they never actually said they were changing it
[30:57.280 –> 31:01.920] So they just like started referring to it as the new name and like at least do it consistently
[31:01.920 –> 31:06.900] Your logo doesn’t even have the word survivors. I know that’s why I was confused. It’s also not in their blurb on Steam
[31:06.900 –> 31:11.540] It’s just yeah, if you’re gonna rename it do it properly. Come on control F
[31:12.540 –> 31:16.180] sundown survivors has a 1.3 update which is out now and it has
[31:16.660 –> 31:21.880] Bug fixes and patches and that they nerf a lot of things down at the bottom. Yep
[31:22.580 –> 31:28.300] That’s thing. Tell us what mammoth is. Yeah, we want to know what it’s a mammoth of some kind at me
[31:28.300 –> 31:32.420] Well, I wonder if it’s just yeah, is it just a cow a weird name for a mammoth?
[31:32.420 –> 31:35.860] Who knows travelers rest have a new update. It’s a farm animal
[31:36.540 –> 31:38.540] added you farm so
[31:38.780 –> 31:45.220] It’s hard to know when you’ve not actually played these games so if you watch the trailer she is hitting cows
[31:45.620 –> 31:51.520] It 50 seconds into the trailer. She is hitting cows with a broom and the cows die
[31:51.520 –> 31:54.740] Oh, don’t do that and her too
[31:55.300 –> 32:00.940] She like kills the two cows and then gets the material from that but like is that no
[32:02.140 –> 32:04.900] No, you see it. Oh, no
[32:05.420 –> 32:10.980] With the pig one of the items looks like guts it does one of the eight for the pig
[32:11.500 –> 32:18.180] Right when she kills the pace one of them looks like a ball of intense intestines pork and beef. Oh, no
[32:19.180 –> 32:25.760] Nope, there was something else. Yeah, it did say something gonna have to pause it was up for like one frame into it’s called intestine
[32:26.600 –> 32:28.600] Oh my gosh, I’m done
[32:33.640 –> 32:36.300] You pick up pig intestines have you
[32:36.960 –> 32:41.320] Listeners, have you ever wanted to use pig intestines in a game?
[32:42.160 –> 32:48.920] Travelers rest is gotcha back. Oh, I wonder if you use it to like make sausage, right? Cuz it’s now
[32:50.000 –> 32:51.320] Okay
[32:51.320 –> 32:53.320] No
[32:54.160 –> 33:00.300] Wine you do you are you a vegan don’t play this game definitely don’t oh my word. That’s
[33:02.360 –> 33:04.360] The animal you put
[33:04.780 –> 33:06.780] Look, I know I know
[33:07.640 –> 33:11.400] Right. I don’t want pig intestines in my game
[33:11.980 –> 33:14.240] Right, like this is the whole realism
[33:14.760 –> 33:20.720] Versus like actually yeah, and it’s like it feels a little bit weird killing your fan at farm animals
[33:20.720 –> 33:22.720] I know that that’s the thing that happens
[33:23.600 –> 33:28.280] Yeah, why are you killing them with a broom? That is just the pain in their faces. Yes
[33:28.720 –> 33:36.960] They look act like they’ve built sprites that are like pain face like flinching. This is horrible flinching. Oh my word
[33:38.360 –> 33:42.580] Yeah, there’s so much detail here and then it pig intestines pop out
[33:42.880 –> 33:48.100] This is someone who’s developed the game so much and they’re like, you know rabbit hole. No, I’m kidding
[33:48.360 –> 33:53.940] Someone probably wants this someone’s interested in it. But with a broom, I don’t want travelers rest
[33:55.340 –> 34:02.880] As as as you’re seeing this clip of this person hitting and killing these cows and pigs with a broom the narrator says
[34:03.300 –> 34:06.840] Do it and your animals will be easier to take care of
[34:08.620 –> 34:10.620] Take care of
[34:11.620 –> 34:14.300] Can you go take care of the cow, please
[34:15.020 –> 34:17.020] We need food for the dinner
[34:17.660 –> 34:19.660] Take care of it
[34:19.940 –> 34:21.660] Okay
[34:21.660 –> 34:22.780] Wow
[34:22.780 –> 34:25.020] Farm animal updates out now. Oh
[34:26.380 –> 34:28.380] So, okay, right
[34:29.640 –> 34:31.640] I’ve just seen a tweet from them
[34:32.180 –> 34:33.340] saying
[34:33.340 –> 34:39.740] That they are thinking about an animal cruelty free slash vegan method. They are working on it
[34:40.460 –> 34:45.420] It is on there, oh, yeah, here we go. Someone says hitting the animals with the room really turned me off
[34:45.420 –> 34:48.140] I’m buying the game. I’m looking forward to a more humane update
[34:48.740 –> 34:50.740] Working on it. Oh
[34:51.040 –> 34:52.900] my gosh, I
[34:52.900 –> 34:59.260] Still bought the game because it looked amazing. I can’t put the controller down and then they say mission accomplished
[35:02.480 –> 35:09.060] They’re like we’re working on it the prisons like I bought it anyway, and they’re like cool don’t have to do anything
[35:09.060 –> 35:14.000] No, I’m kidding. They’re still working on it. They have a road map. Yeah, I can’t see on the road map though
[35:16.300 –> 35:20.220] Insect collection all very long-term. Yeah, I can’t see
[35:24.740 –> 35:27.380] Yeah, I can’t see you on there on their list so
[35:28.300 –> 35:30.060] Let’s move on shall we will come back
[35:30.060 –> 35:34.460] well, we’ll keep you up to date on when there’s a vegan option for travelers rest or even just a
[35:35.380 –> 35:40.660] More humane way of killing your animals, maybe it’s new new farming mechanics
[35:42.180 –> 35:45.660] Let’s build a zoo. Yep speaking of cruelty to animals
[35:47.420 –> 35:53.260] Well, let’s build a zoo is the one that lets you like crossbreed into like horrific creatures, oh, yeah love this
[35:53.260 –> 35:57.220] I just I love this game so much
[35:57.220 –> 36:00.940] I wish I enjoyed playing management games and I would play this much more
[36:00.940 –> 36:04.740] Anyway, the aquarium Odyssey DLC which adds a
[36:05.900 –> 36:12.260] Aquarium is I know so you can go get it now. Oh, it’s apparently in my library. Did I already buy it?
[36:12.660 –> 36:18.780] When did I buy this DLC? Is it free? Oh, no, I didn’t buy it’s all good. No. No, I did. No
[36:19.140 –> 36:23.600] It’s part of dinosaur island the no it no. No, none of that. None of that
[36:24.660 –> 36:29.720] It is that the news update was on the game itself. Not the DLC
[36:29.960 –> 36:35.520] So when I said in library, man, we’re all good. I’m no longer confused 50 plus new animals
[36:37.120 –> 36:43.520] Over 50 new fish and mammal species are ready for you to adopt and showcase to your visitors from dolphins to manta rays whales and
[36:43.520 –> 36:45.880] starfish to lobsters and eels
[36:46.400 –> 36:50.920] There are so many favorites available to take in by animals to your zoo
[36:50.920 –> 36:57.320] You will have the ability to create more than 10 million animal variants in the sandbox mode. Are you ready to make the world’s first?
[36:57.840 –> 36:59.840] Chick ale or
[37:00.080 –> 37:01.520] elus
[37:01.520 –> 37:06.080] Which I’m assuming are a chicken whale and an eel moose chicken whale
[37:06.600 –> 37:12.820] Yeah, I I don’t know if I’m ready for that Cody. I think I feel like this whole game
[37:13.920 –> 37:21.520] Or at least the concept of making all these variants came when someone was like, oh, this is my chihuahua Great Dane mix
[37:22.520 –> 37:24.520] And they were like what I
[37:25.080 –> 37:31.000] Just I love that. I just I just love that. They’re they’re leaning into this and just going even more crazy
[37:31.560 –> 37:33.560] Like I love it. It’s great
[37:33.820 –> 37:38.840] Fantastic. I just wish I enjoyed playing it more. I mean, so you did you play let’s build a zoo?
[37:38.840 –> 37:43.880] I did. Yeah, so do you like put in a thing or do you do you take DNA?
[37:43.880 –> 37:47.780] And yes, it was DNA based. Okay, so you you’re not you’re not
[37:48.620 –> 37:50.100] Procreate
[37:50.100 –> 37:53.580] Or like cutting them half and splicing them together notice DNA base
[37:53.580 –> 37:58.780] So you build like a DNA lab and then you put two in and you analyze their DNA and you come out with this
[37:59.500 –> 38:00.700] abomination
[38:00.700 –> 38:01.860] right
[38:01.860 –> 38:04.180] And you can do it as many times you want with this man
[38:04.180 –> 38:10.500] Do the abominations are do the abominations live every time or is there a time when it just comes out and it’s just like obviously
[38:11.500 –> 38:17.140] Not happy to be alive. That would be horrible. I haven’t come across that in my experience
[38:17.140 –> 38:19.140] They all lived. Okay, but
[38:19.460 –> 38:21.460] Who knows?
[38:23.260 –> 38:26.940] Like one in every hundred they come out asking for death
[38:28.220 –> 38:33.380] Just like you made a chick ale, but you used the nice dip because
[38:35.840 –> 38:39.820] Because it was it was not I tell you here’s something though
[38:40.260 –> 38:43.540] The interesting thing about this game is that obviously you have different?
[38:44.420 –> 38:48.660] Areas in your zoo, right? You say like this is the desert area. This is the grasslands, etc
[38:48.660 –> 38:51.120] Etc. And obviously with this one you have like here’s the water
[38:51.540 –> 38:54.860] But it’s not like you can’t put them in the other areas, right?
[38:54.860 –> 38:57.640] You you it tells you which ones are the ideal ones to put them in
[38:58.100 –> 39:03.460] and it also does things with like oh don’t put it with this animal because they’ll eat them or whatever which is is quite a
[39:04.060 –> 39:08.820] cool way of doing it, but you can put them in one that it’s not meant to be there and
[39:09.620 –> 39:11.580] If you put it with something that will get eaten by it
[39:11.580 –> 39:15.540] Then it just gets eaten and if you put them in a one that it’s not meant to be and they just don’t live as
[39:15.540 –> 39:19.180] Well, so like they get sad or ill and stuff like that. Yeah
[39:19.500 –> 39:23.420] Can you can you put non water creatures in the water and drain them?
[39:26.420 –> 39:28.300] So in in
[39:28.300 –> 39:33.660] Zoo tycoon that you could do you like you could literally just put an animal in an empty enclosure and
[39:34.060 –> 39:40.740] Then give it like the bare freaking minimum and that’s it and they’re unhappy and I wouldn’t do that. I’d be like
[39:40.980 –> 39:44.700] This is not about what you yeah, this is not about what you would do. I just didn’t know
[39:44.700 –> 39:50.460] I just want to know but then you can you drain the dichotomy is if my sim
[39:50.780 –> 39:55.340] goes to bed earlier than I wanted it to I put it in the
[39:55.600 –> 40:01.180] Shed of shame where I make it walk into a room and just delete the door
[40:03.900 –> 40:09.540] I think the thing is right when you’re doing when you’re playing the Sims and you’re being mean you’re doing cruel to the humans
[40:09.700 –> 40:13.860] You’re probably thinking about horrible humans, right? Cuz humans can be pretty horrible
[40:13.860 –> 40:14.740] I mean
[40:14.740 –> 40:20.340] I’m thinking about my sim that that was supposed to go to bed was supposed to go to school that day
[40:20.340 –> 40:25.940] And it was so close to an a right and now it’s the weekend and now you didn’t go to school on time
[40:26.540 –> 40:29.180] You don’t get to do anything this weekend. Oh my
[40:32.740 –> 40:36.500] But like well just just just go with me on this one, right so like, you know
[40:36.500 –> 40:40.700] You’ve got you’ve got there are many many cruel evil people, right?
[40:40.700 –> 40:44.780] And so you can you know, you can think oh this is fine because it’s a cruel evil human, right?
[40:44.780 –> 40:49.260] But you don’t really get that with animals. So animals are mostly just kind of doing their natural instincts
[40:49.780 –> 40:51.780] let’s ignore orcas for just now and
[40:52.860 –> 40:54.540] and so
[40:54.540 –> 40:58.220] You like I think that’s probably the difference, right?
[40:58.220 –> 41:02.820] You can’t like be like being cruel to a dog and you’re just like, oh, this is Hitler, right?
[41:03.500 –> 41:09.460] Works I don’t know. Sometimes I feel like my dog when he gets tries to get into the trash for the eighth time in the
[41:09.460 –> 41:10.460] day
[41:10.460 –> 41:12.460] Your dog is Hitler
[41:13.460 –> 41:15.460] We’re back to the cat with war crimes
[41:16.660 –> 41:18.420] So, yeah
[41:18.420 –> 41:20.860] But I don’t even know but let’s build a zoo
[41:21.420 –> 41:22.980] aquarium
[41:22.980 –> 41:24.980] So that’s the updates in DLC
[41:25.900 –> 41:27.900] None of the animals are Hitler
[41:29.100 –> 41:31.100] that we know of and
[41:31.100 –> 41:33.100] I wonder if there’s a
[41:33.340 –> 41:40.580] an animal crossover that would make the word Hitler like a hippo and anything with a cat stantler
[41:42.900 –> 41:44.900] We’re gonna we’re gonna talk about
[41:45.540 –> 41:47.540] some other updates
[41:47.940 –> 41:50.160] That didn’t fit into the previous categories
[41:50.380 –> 41:57.460] So we have a new gameplay trailer for harvest moon the winds of Anthos and all I care about is the dog race
[41:57.460 –> 42:01.140] I don’t know. So have we have me and you talked about this game yet?
[42:01.140 –> 42:06.780] No, so I feel like this game still hasn’t given me a reason not to like it
[42:06.860 –> 42:12.340] Yeah, which I’m still waiting for it it. I mean other than the fact the name is weird
[42:13.500 –> 42:14.940] like all
[42:14.940 –> 42:19.860] That there are so many games that have weird but like it looks all right
[42:21.140 –> 42:26.940] The horse controls look janky, but other than that, I think that the the dog
[42:27.500 –> 42:32.840] The dog I’m still really hopeful about. Yeah, so what’s the month? It’s just that there’s a trailer. Oh, yeah
[42:32.840 –> 42:39.120] Yeah, just new trailer. There’s the I don’t think there’s any new. Yeah. No, it looks it looks good an icy tomato
[42:40.160 –> 42:42.160] Snowman. Oh, that is a cute dog. Oh
[42:43.000 –> 42:48.860] So I am it looks cute. I’m excited to hear what y’all have to say about it. Oh, I found the problem
[42:48.860 –> 42:53.020] Don’t touch bears don’t and don’t come up to black bears or touch
[42:53.740 –> 42:55.740] dinosaurs, excuse me
[42:56.660 –> 43:01.940] At one minute 38 seconds in the trailer someone is in like a lava zone and they’re pointing at a dinosaur
[43:02.640 –> 43:09.240] Yeah, well, where else are the dinosaurs gonna be in to be fair in the past, right Cody to be fair
[43:10.300 –> 43:13.440] She’s shocked. She is pretty sure that is a shock
[43:15.220 –> 43:17.220] My face looking at the dinosaur
[43:17.940 –> 43:25.220] What the heck? Although then she’s got a shocked face when Doug jr. Is talking about chickens. So I feel like not much
[43:26.000 –> 43:33.260] She gets shocked by a lot of stuff. Um, I yeah, I mean chickens are all chickens. It’s cuz chickens are dinosaurs. Oh my god
[43:34.620 –> 43:39.800] No, the volcanoes are up at the chickens are thing. We’re off the rails Moonstone Island
[43:40.860 –> 43:47.440] Has a collaboration that we know Johnny is gonna love. This is an ooblets collaboration. This is wild
[43:47.740 –> 43:50.400] Yes, this is wild Cody this
[43:51.040 –> 43:56.000] Island are adding ooblets into the game. This opens up like what like where is the end?
[43:56.000 –> 44:00.400] I just ooblets in your coffee ooblets in
[44:01.160 –> 44:05.600] House of dragons. I’m so fascinated by this like yeah, I
[44:06.320 –> 44:08.320] Think it’s interesting. Um, I
[44:08.960 –> 44:14.240] Wrote hilariously Johnny. What ooblet do you want in Moonstone Island tells Johnny?
[44:14.840 –> 44:21.440] Which of the goofy named things rad lad is probably one of the better named ones from his point of view I suspect yeah
[44:21.440 –> 44:22.720] Yeah
[44:22.720 –> 44:26.400] It’s just a joke. The other person asked would be bev what they think
[44:27.000 –> 44:33.480] What ooblet they think would be best for collaborations and then also which one would be best for rad lad is definitely a good option
[44:33.480 –> 44:35.480] I also like Shrumble
[44:35.520 –> 44:41.440] And those are the only ones I can I’m trying to find a list of impumbs. Oh, those are clubs
[44:41.560 –> 44:47.280] I was gonna say that’s a club. Come on. Why not? I want like a list of the ooblets. Okay, whatever
[44:47.280 –> 44:49.600] This is taking too much time really interesting though
[44:51.080 –> 44:54.360] To see rad lot to see a collaboration between these games
[44:54.360 –> 45:00.760] So I wonder if they’re gonna do more or if ooblets is gonna put their their
[45:01.640 –> 45:04.160] Ooblets in two other games. I don’t know
[45:05.960 –> 45:08.440] Very interesting. Yeah. Yeah
[45:09.440 –> 45:16.400] Mossfield origins are moving to self-publishing. I mean, I don’t think this really changes much for anyone. It’s an interesting thing
[45:16.400 –> 45:21.360] I know the Stardew did this a few years after release they switched from
[45:22.000 –> 45:26.640] What was it the cat Stardew? Yeah, what was Stardew? I thought it was always just no
[45:27.640 –> 45:30.680] Used a publisher Chucklefish. Mmm Chucklefish
[45:31.520 –> 45:33.520] And then moved to move to self-publish
[45:34.400 –> 45:35.920] Yeah, I mean I
[45:35.920 –> 45:41.240] If you can do it, it’s less money to pay for other things. So more I need to the developer
[45:41.240 –> 45:46.720] I guess they’ve obviously thought this there. There’s also steam next fest
[45:47.680 –> 45:51.600] Which there’ll be a demo of muscle origins
[45:52.160 –> 45:56.160] During steam next fest, which is an event happening here on October
[45:56.760 –> 45:58.860] So it’s a multi-day celebration. It starts
[45:59.860 –> 46:01.580] October 9th at 10 a.m
[46:01.580 –> 46:08.940] And I believe it’s just kind of there’s seven days and there’s hundreds of demos and hours of the developer stream
[46:08.940 –> 46:14.260] So it’s just kind of like a way for you to see people playing the games that are coming up in the future
[46:14.260 –> 46:18.300] So Mossfield origins. Yeah, there’s probably a bunch of other games as well
[46:18.300 –> 46:25.420] I don’t tend to talk a huge amount about them because like we’re doing up-to-date news, but this is quite a while away
[46:25.420 –> 46:27.540] So get on that if you want to play it
[46:28.420 –> 46:32.820] We’ve got two soundtracks there. All right, so we’ve got roots of Pacha and
[46:33.340 –> 46:39.260] Research story have both released their soundtrack. It’s a patcha is on Spotify and research story is not
[46:40.020 –> 46:42.100] but you can get the research story one for
[46:43.060 –> 46:45.060] yes on steam and
[46:45.420 –> 46:50.140] It has to be one tracks a couple different artists, which is yeah speaking of something that’s coming out
[46:50.140 –> 46:55.900] But we have no very little about it. Yeah, I’m hyped about this. I’m gonna start my cooking channel
[46:56.100 –> 47:00.420] Yeah, because the stardew valley cookbook is coming out next year
[47:01.060 –> 47:04.100] So I’m gonna start a cooking channel called get this
[47:05.420 –> 47:06.860] al dente
[47:06.860 –> 47:08.860] It’s the worst
[47:11.180 –> 47:17.140] We could totally have like that could be a segment on this show like well al dente instead of green houses
[47:17.140 –> 47:19.380] it’s like another edition of al dente and
[47:20.420 –> 47:23.380] In it, maybe like you and one other person
[47:24.060 –> 47:25.780] Recreates a
[47:25.780 –> 47:30.060] Cooking recipe from this cookbook. I feel like it needs to be a separate thing
[47:30.060 –> 47:33.420] I feel like okay, even if it’s just like a temporary thing, okay
[47:33.620 –> 47:37.620] This is not me promising to do this by the way, just just in case you’re thinking
[47:38.420 –> 47:42.940] Promising to do I am promising. Let me tell you let me tell you so I love this
[47:42.940 –> 47:47.260] so I have some developer friends who were commenting on this and
[47:48.220 –> 47:53.820] They were throwing a bunch of weird prompts into chat GPT to try and get some suggestion, okay, and
[47:55.580 –> 48:00.480] One of them one of the one of the prompts came up with the best tagline
[48:01.780 –> 48:06.420] So it starts off al welcome you unsuspecting culinary captives
[48:11.620 –> 48:16.680] Unsuspecting culinary captain, I mean it has to happen. I’m here for it
[48:17.820 –> 48:24.580] Today we’re diving into the deep dark abyss of culinary chaos to whip up that elusive monstrosity known as seafoam pudding
[48:25.300 –> 48:29.940] Charming game stardew Valley, although it for some reason wrote star view Valley. Oh
[48:34.100 –> 48:39.060] I’ll grabs a mixing bowl and starts hurling ingredients into it ingredients into it without measuring
[48:41.300 –> 48:46.900] I’m gonna follow this recipe. All right, listen up because I’m only saying this once we’re making seafoam pudding
[48:46.900 –> 48:52.720] I’ve already said that a second time why I don’t know nobody knows but we’re doing it anyway because apparently it’s a thing
[48:52.900 –> 48:59.460] That is you like you say that al grumbles of these struggles to crack eggs spilling them all over the counter
[48:59.460 –> 49:02.220] How dare you I am good at cracking eggs. Thank you very much
[49:02.340 –> 49:04.380] No, I’m sure that you can crack eggs
[49:04.380 –> 49:11.420] But you’ve done you’ve said like that exact phrase of like here we’re doing this why I don’t know but we’re doing it
[49:11.420 –> 49:14.180] Anyway, like I feel like you said that before
[49:14.860 –> 49:19.220] First we need eggs how many who cares just throw them in you like guessing games, right?
[49:22.620 –> 49:24.620] It’s you on chaos mode
[49:24.780 –> 49:30.960] Next up sugar because every good recipe starts with a truckload of sugar who needs dental hygiene when you can have a sugar high
[49:31.220 –> 49:34.360] It’s al dente get yourself to the dentist
[49:38.580 –> 49:44.060] No vanilla extract or is it fish oil who cares a splash of something liquid and it’s good to go
[49:44.180 –> 49:50.180] I’ll dramatically pours a random liquid into the bowl then sniffs it suspiciously. Those are two very different things
[49:52.620 –> 49:54.620] You need to include this somewhere
[49:55.540 –> 50:02.540] Unlike put it on the on the slack. No the pièce de résistance. They’re enigmatic seafoam. What is it?
[50:02.540 –> 50:06.820] How do you get it? No one knows and honestly, I’m not even sure if I care at this point
[50:07.540 –> 50:12.460] I’ll flings handfuls of whipped cream and crumbled cookies into the bowl laughing maniacally
[50:15.020 –> 50:18.280] Well, assuming that I put the vanilla extract in nice
[50:22.740 –> 50:25.980] Mix it all together until it looks like a crime scene of flavors
[50:27.100 –> 50:30.700] We want confusion chaos and flavor anarchy people
[50:30.900 –> 50:37.580] I’ll mixes the concoction with wild abandon splattering the camera with bits of the mixture now for the grand finale
[50:37.580 –> 50:44.160] We summon the culinary spirits of Stardew Valley by screaming at the top of our lungs. Are you ready? I don’t care
[50:44.180 –> 50:51.760] Let’s do it. Anyway, I’ll let’s a primal screen that scream that shakes the entire set causing a few dishes to crash to the floor
[50:52.860 –> 50:58.380] And there you have it folks the abomination that is seafoam pudding from the depths of gaming nonsense
[50:58.860 –> 51:03.820] Servant in whatever container you can find an old shoe. Perfect a flower pot even better
[51:05.500 –> 51:09.760] I’ll violently scoops them pudding into various unconventional containers
[51:09.960 –> 51:13.840] This is al signing off with a reminder culinary precision is for the week
[51:14.240 –> 51:21.120] Embrace the chaos revel in the madness and remember if your food doesn’t make you question your life choices. Are you even living?
[51:26.920 –> 51:32.220] I’ll take some monstrous bite of the seafoam pudding his expression a mixture of confusion and irritation
[51:33.120 –> 51:38.620] And if you’re wondering if this tastes good who cares until next time stay furious my friends
[51:39.760 –> 51:41.760] You
[51:42.880 –> 51:49.520] Better like follow if you make al dente you better follow this to the letter. It’s script exactly exactly. Oh
[51:50.360 –> 51:54.440] My words, I just I would watch that. I love it. I
[51:55.240 –> 51:57.240] Just like this is the thing, right? Okay. I’m not
[51:57.880 –> 52:02.000] We don’t need to get into debate but like sometimes it can create masterpieces
[52:05.320 –> 52:07.540] Why does AI know me better than I know myself
[52:07.540 –> 52:09.540] So
[52:12.620 –> 52:15.740] So there’s uh, there’s a stardew valley cookbook coming out next year
[52:18.780 –> 52:23.660] Am I gonna buy it probably I don’t know why I’m saying probably I think you all know what’s gonna happen
[52:23.660 –> 52:27.740] Yeah, but there’s not gonna be there’s no pictures or in anything of it right now
[52:27.740 –> 52:33.300] It’s literally just it’s coming out the end. I mean, well, let’s be honest. Let’s be honest Cody if
[52:34.100 –> 52:36.500] There were any pictures would it make?
[52:37.540 –> 52:40.540] Me any little more likely or less likely to buy it
[52:43.180 –> 52:47.160] You see the pictures when you buy it Cody that’s how it works you don’t want to get it free
[52:48.040 –> 52:52.820] You’ll share the pictures with me. So here’s an interesting so you can get it on hardcover for
[52:53.500 –> 52:54.740] $28 or
[52:54.740 –> 53:00.340] Or 22 pounds or you can get on the Kindle for I don’t know what it is in dollars, but it’s nine pounds
[53:00.340 –> 53:06.200] So probably about ten. So that’s good because quite often books are like the same price on Kindle, which is just stupid
[53:06.200 –> 53:09.560] This is a very decent. Yeah, I mean
[53:09.560 –> 53:14.920] I do think that not buying this is probably the better option for the vast majority of people, right?
[53:16.000 –> 53:21.800] But yeah, I’m almost certainly gonna buy this so come join the patreon and help me pay for this insane
[53:22.520 –> 53:28.660] Thing. Oh my word. I’m just I I can’t get over how much that script actually does sound like me
[53:29.480 –> 53:31.760] Why I just am I that predictable
[53:32.480 –> 53:35.200] said oh my word at some point I
[53:35.680 –> 53:37.920] I would have been like you wrote this
[53:39.240 –> 53:41.360] You wrote this don’t tell me
[53:42.440 –> 53:44.440] unsuspecting culinary captives
[53:45.880 –> 53:49.920] You don’t know it but you’re a captain of a chaotic vessel, here we go
[53:51.220 –> 53:52.760] anyway
[53:52.760 –> 53:56.120] Got three more pieces of news olds. We got this
[53:56.160 –> 54:02.440] yeah, so we’ve got three games that are various levels of information and they’re
[54:03.440 –> 54:05.200] Chill town
[54:05.200 –> 54:08.380] Was on Kickstarter it has been funded and it is ended
[54:08.920 –> 54:10.920] So if you want to back it too late
[54:10.920 –> 54:17.800] They’re currently saying that the early access is coming out in October and the game is releasing in q2
[54:18.080 –> 54:21.440] 2024 I’d be very surprised if that happens. But yeah
[54:22.280 –> 54:28.200] If you want it, it will exist at some point cuz yeah, it just got funded. So yeah, literally
[54:29.160 –> 54:34.840] Five days ago as we’re talking so if it was coming this soon like what was being funded
[54:34.840 –> 54:37.480] Yeah, I mean, I guess it’s not that uncommon that they’re like
[54:37.480 –> 54:39.320] Oh, we just need to like get this over
[54:39.320 –> 54:43.520] Like if it’s somebody’s been developing it for years on their own and then they’re like, right?
[54:43.520 –> 54:48.540] I’m so close, but I need to like devote my time to this then they would they would do that
[54:49.040 –> 54:52.960] It’s coming to PC and maybe Mac, but it’s unclear
[54:53.800 –> 55:00.800] It doesn’t say it’s not coming to Mac it doesn’t say it’s exclusive to Windows but they oh they were only asking for
[55:01.520 –> 55:04.200] $1,000. Oh, that’s how you know, you’re gonna get a success
[55:06.000 –> 55:09.600] We’re excited to share that our Kickstarter campaign has achieved a funding level of
[55:10.120 –> 55:15.600] 490 percent. Oh wait 10. Sorry. They were asking for 10,000. Oh, yeah, but like still that’s not
[55:16.560 –> 55:22.360] Not very much. Yeah, I mean it is it’s a big difference between 10 and 1
[55:22.480 –> 55:27.660] But yeah, yeah, I think that it looks like my comment was that it looks like Animal Crossing
[55:28.200 –> 55:30.960] Yeah, but there’s a cat following you and there’s a little bit more
[55:31.600 –> 55:33.480] Detail. Yeah. Yeah
[55:33.480 –> 55:37.600] So what did I did I write anything for this a unique blend of?
[55:37.800 –> 55:43.840] Soothing simulation and an idle game with a music decoration fishing cooking farming dot-dot-dot
[55:43.840 –> 55:44.240] Yeah
[55:44.240 –> 55:46.240] It did have a decent amount of farming
[55:46.280 –> 55:51.440] Look into it and some of the farm things that you have like it looked like they were like turnips or whatever
[55:51.440 –> 55:54.880] Yeah, they look alive. They look like why did the turnips look alive?
[55:56.200 –> 55:58.200] No, not this again
[55:59.400 –> 56:03.160] Unless these are turnips unless it’s like Joan
[56:03.440 –> 56:09.440] Am I eat is this an ooblets and they’re gonna help me out or am I gonna have to eat live turnips?
[56:09.440 –> 56:13.160] Maybe it’s like the stockings the stonk exchange in
[56:13.560 –> 56:20.000] Animal Crossing where you just like are trading these things and you’re not actually eating players have a range of methods for
[56:20.240 –> 56:23.700] Catching different types of pals. Oh, it’s ooblets again
[56:24.200 –> 56:30.220] these methods include digging them up from the ground sneaking up on them and capturing them while fishing in the sea or
[56:30.800 –> 56:31.800] employing
[56:31.800 –> 56:35.760] Specialized tools such as a suction gun explicitly designed for their capture
[56:36.800 –> 56:41.480] These I know that was quite that is the wording on that my word
[56:42.440 –> 56:45.000] These toes just imagine them running away
[56:45.360 –> 56:51.600] Like there’s one in the corner like mommy no, it’s like no gonna shoot you
[56:53.760 –> 56:58.580] These tools can either be crafted by the player or purchased from the local town shops and
[56:59.160 –> 57:03.680] You’re right. Yeah. Okay, so you’re growing you’re growing you’re growing creatures too. It’s a creature collection
[57:03.680 –> 57:06.920] Why didn’t it say that doesn’t say that anywhere but it’s great
[57:06.920 –> 57:09.200] It is like you read the detail and you’re like, oh you
[57:09.520 –> 57:16.920] Grow these creatures and you capture them and then you evolve them and then there’s different rarity and your bonds increase with them
[57:16.920 –> 57:19.080] And you can make hybrid they’re calling them pals
[57:19.840 –> 57:22.840] Which I really don’t like as a word pal
[57:24.760 –> 57:26.240] Hybrid pals
[57:26.240 –> 57:29.840] Yeah, it’s a creature collection farming game, which is fine. Like I like that
[57:29.840 –> 57:34.060] Yeah, I don’t know why I didn’t realize that because I have backed this one
[57:35.640 –> 57:37.960] So I really paid attention when I was backing it
[57:39.280 –> 57:45.800] No, it’s good. I like it, but it like doesn’t make that clear anywhere else. And then there’s also just fish
[57:46.480 –> 57:54.040] Just just fish. Yeah, like hyper realistic looking fish in this game that you have turnip with eyes
[57:55.000 –> 57:56.320] Like what?
[57:56.320 –> 58:01.920] The fish looks so if I’ve you seen the fish I’m scrolling they look so out of place. Oh
[58:02.920 –> 58:10.320] Yeah, yep, what’s with what’s with that it’s like everything is like chibi and cartoony and then you’ve got this
[58:11.560 –> 58:17.000] Hyper-looking boss. It’s the same with the with the butterflies. Also, these are all just
[58:18.120 –> 58:23.760] But like this is this reminds me of Animal Crossing because Animal Crossing when you collect the insects and then you look at them in
[58:23.760 –> 58:29.800] Your that’s true. Whatever they look very real and the way that your person holds up the thing like wow
[58:29.800 –> 58:36.160] I caught it like it’s very Animal Crossing. Oh, I think they actually cooking. Oh, you can pay $75 to get a unicorn
[58:37.360 –> 58:39.360] or
[58:39.760 –> 58:42.740] $20 for a baby dragon kickstart. Yeah, it’s a
[58:43.260 –> 58:49.000] 75 for what Oh add-on baby drug. Okay. Yeah, it’s twenty twenty dollars that you can you can get the dragon on its own
[58:49.000 –> 58:51.000] They did not unlock
[58:52.000 –> 58:55.520] Switch. Yeah. Yeah, it’s just gonna be PC
[58:56.160 –> 58:59.000] Question yeah, I mean they’ll port to switch if it’s successful
[58:59.360 –> 59:03.820] But yeah, it certainly won’t be coming to start with but these things never do they never release with switches. Yeah
[59:04.080 –> 59:07.800] Yeah, I like the look of it. It looks a little bit weird. It looks a little bit cute
[59:07.800 –> 59:12.640] I’m intrigued to see how it goes. I didn’t realize until this conversation that it was a creature collection game
[59:12.840 –> 59:16.560] You learn something new every day classic Moonlight Peaks
[59:17.440 –> 59:19.960] have you ever wanted to be a
[59:20.760 –> 59:26.520] Vampire I says this is wild and expedience life as a vampire in Moonlight Peaks
[59:27.160 –> 59:34.080] Master the art of potion making and spell casting tend to your supernatural farm and make your mark on the magical town
[59:34.640 –> 59:41.720] Befriend the local werewolves witches and mermaids and maybe even find eternal love along the way in this heartwarming life
[59:41.720 –> 59:44.680] Sim you set out to prove to your skeptical father
[59:45.720 –> 59:47.720] Dracula
[59:48.240 –> 59:50.240] What
[59:54.040 –> 59:58.040] It’s down under about this game father is Dracula
[59:59.520 –> 01:00:02.920] You’re trying to give some humanity to Dracula
[01:00:04.320 –> 01:00:08.200] Unravel the mysteries of the seven families and step out of the shadow of your father
[01:00:09.040 –> 01:00:15.460] Find your perfect match vampire dating is full of options from werewolves to unsuspecting humans. Yikes
[01:00:16.460 –> 01:00:20.820] Unsuspective also one of the pictures in the dating in the I know it’s your father
[01:00:21.060 –> 01:00:24.420] Well, I don’t know you don’t know that’s their father is just in the image
[01:00:24.420 –> 01:00:27.580] That’s above the bit that talks about your father, but it doesn’t actually say it’s your father
[01:00:27.580 –> 01:00:30.340] So I’m assuming it’s not I like the guy with the owl
[01:00:30.340 –> 01:00:33.500] I’m guessing because the two characters in that image are both in there
[01:00:33.500 –> 01:00:37.100] So I’m guessing that you play as one of them and the other one is a villager
[01:00:37.340 –> 01:00:41.460] like you can choose one of the like I presume those are the two options you can choose from and
[01:00:42.100 –> 01:00:48.300] She’s she looks like a witch not right, maybe they’re just I’m so confused knows this is wild
[01:00:49.380 –> 01:00:54.140] You I’m gonna have to play this game. I mean it has full controller support. So yeah you do
[01:00:56.020 –> 01:01:02.180] You fly that’s the thing that matters that or the ability to break up couples is what you need
[01:01:02.940 –> 01:01:09.260] Well, yeah, I like it’s very it’s very kind of purpley. Yeah. I’m really liking the color scheme
[01:01:09.820 –> 01:01:14.060] I’m looking at all the characters. It’s my vibe. I’m very like I like the art
[01:01:14.060 –> 01:01:19.180] I like that you can you fly around as a bat you like fire. I should have umpire. Yeah
[01:01:19.900 –> 01:01:26.780] There’s also a blood meter in the top left. What oh, no, you’re gonna have to kill. What are you do?
[01:01:28.500 –> 01:01:36.140] All moonlighters assemble ask me anything. Oh there was an AMA and I’m hoping I’m hoping I’m hoping
[01:01:36.900 –> 01:01:41.620] That that is just like your your energy bar and you go to sleep to bring it up
[01:01:41.620 –> 01:01:44.700] But I have a bad feeling that you’re gonna have to keep eating humans
[01:01:45.100 –> 01:01:48.980] What if you fall in love with a human and they just let you
[01:01:49.740 –> 01:01:51.740] loftier
[01:01:54.980 –> 01:01:56.180] Yeah

[01:02:21.880 –> 01:02:27.480] If you watch the trailer there, you can see them in the background of about 35 seconds into the trailer
[01:02:28.240 –> 01:02:30.240] You’re looking at like a plant
[01:02:30.240 –> 01:02:31.800] a
[01:02:31.800 –> 01:02:35.040] Creation thing and it looks like the plant chamber has
[01:02:36.120 –> 01:02:38.600] temperature pH level nutrients energy and water
[01:02:39.280 –> 01:02:45.080] So you can change all those things and behind it are beehives and the bees are coming and going. Oh

[01:03:34.240 –> 01:03:36.640] What is this fish engine
[01:03:37.320 –> 01:03:43.900] So just two images down from the stretch goals. They’re building a jet engine with a fish around it. Yeah
