don't people have better things to do with their lives than spend 30000 hours making autist megaprojects in minecraft/terraria and then putting it at the mercy of the internet? like at least save the thing or make a hard copy somehow

if that qualifies as "not eating food" to idiot nerds why can't they just declare whatever they're already eating "not food."

Constant zombie references and tedious fellatio of the same repetitive elements of popular culture means that indie people will miss the point where people are adopting indie tropes just to be ironic. hopefully they will consume each other and we can be free

So our game will be about the A-team, but mixing it up a bit for the 21st Century. Instead of all cishet males, they will be all diverse spectrums of the genderverse.
For example, B.A Baracus is now a butch gender queer fag/hag hag/fag fag/fag lesbian Eskimo. She gets into fits of rage when confronted by social issues, and is scared by flying.
When scared, instead of drugging her/hers/himself, they have to group hug until she falls asleep. The quick time event of this will make players think.

"When it's a red blob of pixels rescuing a pink blob of pixels, I feel oppressed, as if the developers are trying to say 'look at this, colors associated with femininity imply helplessness' it was a nice change when it was the pink blob of pixels doing the rescuing of the red blob. It is very empowering."

These are the best because they sometimes actually release and you get stuff like Black mesa source, which took years of development and was forgotten within two weeks of release
