Quick Questions XIV: A Question Reasked (Part 1)

i appreciate how much there is to do in stardew but that and the vague time pressure on bigger goals makes it kind of overwhelming for me to consider playing much

Somewhat related: Did anybody try that Doraemon Harvest Moon game aka Doraemon Story of Seasons that recently came out for Switch and PC? Made by the original Harest Moon devs in cooperation with some of the people who worked on Legend of Mana I think?

no but it looked rad and i heard good things

Translated by forum alumni Deets.

is there any particular reason why elevator action returns hasn’t ended up on steam etc.

I had been hoping it would eventually get the Wild Guns Reloaded/Ninja Warriors Once Again treatment until I looked it up just now and realized Natsume wasn’t involved in it and so it wouldn’t be part of this string of remakes. I don’t think anyone remembered Elevator Action Returns but man was it a good game.

Hope Hamster will pick it up for Arcade Archives at least.

Is there any free way for a guy to edit a god damned pdf?

  1. steal acrobat

  2. use evaluation version of https://code-industry.net/masterpdfeditor/

  3. rasterize and re-OCR it using a complicated toolchain of open source postscript parsers

Yo ok listen

I want everyone to go listen to the song from this trailer and just

witness these drums

double self-posting to point out that I now realize I was thinking of Elevator Action Deluxe and not Returns, which is a different thing.

I was referring to the Deluxe trailer, which is So Good.

deluxe rules you can play as time gal and the arkanoid paddle

This has me wondering, does Natsume still own the name “Pocky and Rocky” while not actually owning anything else about Kikikaikai as an IP in the west? Similar to the situation with Harvest Moon?

wait is THIS why the wii Harvest Moon game was so basic compared to the gamecube one

also uh, i played this dumb game at my mate’s the other week called Steamworld Dig 2 and aesthetically/philosophically it was moribund but it had this really compelling gameplay loop of like, digging around this persistent world to do yr action adventure type things, returning to the surface periodically to sell off treasure/refill yr lantern, and i’m wondering if there’s any games less offensive to my sensibilities that might have a similar thing going on?

i’m aware this is an insufferable question

oh sick thnku will scope

zbrush is cool but also possibly overkill if you just wanna dip your toes in to 3d. the most recent update of blender just got some nice improvements to sculpting that make it behave a lot more like zbrush, and it is free.

if you wanna go deep in to sculpting go for zbrush, just know it’s slow going getting into because of how unconventional the UI is (which deters a lot of people who just wanna try it out). it’s not intuitive, but it is fine once you figure it out.
