Considering that I've always considered #wikipedia the modern-day version of the "Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy," I am bitterly disappointed to find that there's no entry on "What to do if you find yourself stuck in a crack in the ground underneath a giant boulder you can't move, with no hope of rescue."

I never could get the hang of the Thursdays" - It is Thursday here, and waking up to newsthat Raya would rather be LOANED to #Arsenal for 3M than sold to Spurs for ~40 M made me think

175 followers · 2472 posts · Server toot.ioI'll pick a subset of my favorite games that also intersect with the set of games which are the inspirations for and influences upon my new game Slartboz:
1. NetHack
2. Infocom's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
3. Steve Jackson's Illuminati
and 4 more (imo) masterpieces which, I hope, you'll be able to tell once you see and get to play Slartboz for your very self

1st demo video of actual gameplay planned to debut July 31
I'll try to revive/resurrect Abro's gfren Fern in time, so she can make her public debut in that video. It may be hard. But I have a dark plan. And special tools. And thunderstorms in the forecast tonight...

169 followers · 2301 posts · Server toot.ioIf I told everyone my 10 games I'd also be revealing around 4-7 of the biggest intentional game design influences on my own new computer game (under development): Slartboz
my 10 does include... NetHack
and... Infocom's HHGG
in the work I did in my most recent dev session on Slartboz, in fact, if one was looking over my shoulder, you would totally "get it". that I love NetHack and HHGG. I have both subtle and not so subtle nods & homage to both in it

#42!
#FortyTwo!
Mulder lives in the Ultimate Apartment! #TheTruthIsOutThere, inside his apartment! Woot!!
How cool is that! How wonderful that Chris Carter paid this honorarium to #HHGTTG. I'm so pleased about this, i'm gonna celebrate with a double #PanGalacticGargleBlaster. Woohoo.
