if you get caught you are forced to sit through a five hour "presentation" about the next big thing in the crypto space and you've got a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to invest

In meteorology, vorticity often refers to a measurement of the spin of horizontally flowing air about a vertical axis.

About that. The next beepboopbitcoin game has been in development off and on since...since about when the last one came out. Like the last one it involves a bunch of linked game engines. This time each of the game-things is a different kind of bitcoiner, although they're all (mostly) interacting with the same game environment(s). And one of them is a guy who loses his butts on gox:



And yeah. Antagonist is Pyramid Scheme...who is obviously the bitcoin guy...who is obviously just a guy in an ill-fitting bitcoin costume...in an ill-fitting pyramid costume. There's a point at which the player is talking to an NPC in town and says "There sure are a lot of digital currencies in this town," and the NPC replies "They look like currencies to you?"

I've cut out a shitload of content because of other poo poo that's been released during the long, half-assed development process. Like there was a bunch of Megaten/Persona-themed stuff and the Silent Hill stuff and those both reference Twin Peaks so there was some Twin Peaks stuff and then David Lynch decides now's the perfect time to release a new Twin Peaks. So a bunch of that got scrapped (although there's an NPC who's kinda like the Oracle in nethack, the Log Chart Lady, who's probably going to be in the final game just because I like the gag). There was a sequence involving Mark as a sort of Lupin the Third kind of thing, and then Persona 5 features Lupin...and then netflix does a whole Lupin series, so that got scrapped.

Sooooooooo. Basically I try to be pretty up front whenever I'm ripping something off and then here I am reading the forums and there's like a page of the game design bullet item by bullet item. Going by the commit dates on the assets, all that stuff got added no later than around 2017 (holy poo poo this thing is dragging on)...but none of that's public and I can't prove it. So I just reg'ed an account to ask an open question: kosher to leave that poo poo in, or would that be weird or wrong or whatever the gently caress? Thought about just scrapping it because holy poo poo I'm used to scrapping poo poo by this point but looking at it the emptygox role is linked to a bunch of other poo poo in ways that wouldn't be trivial to disentangle.

Oh and hi guys. Maybe a new game this year. Maybe. Hopefully. Maybe.
