  1. Another one from the List of Things Hasbro Won't Let a Brony Do in a Fangame:

    3)  Pinkie-Swears aren't the kind of things I should need to bleep over.

  2. Well, shoot---registration is open for Whinny City Pony Con, but I'm suddenly finding myself wondering if I want to spend over $550 to go to a fan convention for a show I haven't watched in I-don't-know-how-long.

    It's a sobering feeling:  I really did like G-4 while it was on; they did an excellent job with the characters, and I'm still working on my Weather Factory Meltdown fangame.  I cried back in 2019 when the show had its finale, simply because it was all over.  In a lot of ways, the show is a part of who I've been since 2010.

    But...is it still a part of who I am today...?

      $550 is the hotel plus the registration; I live near enough to Windy City to drive there.  Food and gas aren't a part of that, but I know those'll up the cost.  It's high partly because the con starts on the 7th and ends on the 9th, and while I could save myself money by arriving on the 7th and leaving on the 9th, I'd prefer to be rested; I plan to arrive on the 6th and leave on the 10th.

      Just after I posted this, I realized that I still daydream about a portal to Equestria opening in my laundry room---I'm not exactly proud to admit to something that silly, but it is enough to tell me that G-4 is still very much a part of who I am; I've already paid for registration, and I think after my next payday, I'll look into a hotel.  Maybe I'll cut a day to save some money; I don't know.

  4. Hue hue two packages from China arrived and one of them contained the legit ordered product, the other one was empty, had only a destroyed product's package inside.
    That explains the hole in the package, someone stole it.
    So now the test, I RMA'd it and I'll see what happens. I'm curious if the buyer's protection on that shopping platform does anything more than existing in theory.

      I'm leaning in the direction of Izzy, but her hair in this version seems...I dunno, too different from her CGI hair.  There's some curly, free-spirited je ne sais quoi to her mane in the CGI version that her 2D version lacks.

  9. I love My Little Pony and I think I’m gonna look at the G1, G2 and G3 stuff, so exciting. ^^
     

    Good morning.

      G-1 is pretty adventure-y for the most part, and includes human characters and Spike.  I liked it, and it was actually while looking for G-1 material for a G-1 parody that I learned about G-4!

      G-2 is mostly slice-of-life, the ponies live in Ponyville, and there are few if any fantasy elements to it.  Not really my cup of tea.

      G-3 has adventure and slice-of-life in it, but is very preschool-ish and generally not up to G-4's storytelling standards.

      If he's already eating and roars at you, that means he wants you to leave.  Running is exactly the right way to respond, I'd say!

      Good morning!  Take it easy, don't push yourself too hard, and you'll probably get over it; that's the way it usually works for me!

  13. I've been playing Shups, and it seems like I never progress to level six, even when I've been in level five long enough to progress.  The enemy level got up to 166 before I was foolish enough to try to fly through a cloud of red projectiles to evade the beam-turrets' fire.

    Is there a Stage 6, or is Stage 5 coded to keep throwing enemies at the player until the player makes a mistake like mine?

    1. HereComesTom

      HereComesTom

      I hope you get some good sleep, then!

      To be honest, it's been a while since I played Shups, but every time I do, I find it very engaging---surprisingly so for a game with only two types of enemy!  I think it's because of the tight second-to-second gameplay; I always have to keep figuring out a path for my ship to travel along to get items, avoid enemy fire, and (above all else!) keep a step ahead of as many laser turrets as I can.

      Depends on what the poisons do; poisons can cause practically any symptom known to medicine!

      I can relate to taking longer than usual on a development project; I've been letting WFM slide a bit this last week or so---working on, of all things, a Star Trek fanmade ship design!
