  1. Intoxicated:

    Stouts and porters were the last styles I was able to get my head around. I found trying some really punchy ones is what tipped me over into understanding the appeal. If you ever see a Peche Mortel or Aphodisiaque by Brasserie Dieu Du Ciel, those were the stouts that pushed me over. The end of summer also means the annual tradition of buying a pumpkin beer and regretting it.
  2. Did you launch the game from Big Picture mode? On windows 8, I was pressing the center button expecting to get the Steam overlay, but no dice.
  3. Motherboard and CPU are pretty much the least upgradable components, everything else swaps so easily.
  4. Other podcasts

    Hey declan, that last episode was very interesting, never would have guessed the Olli Olli folks had such a varied past.
  5. Game Jams

    Apparently I have forgotten how to scope games for jams. Anyways, you can't say i didn't do a thing: https://itch.io/jam/pet/rate/32956

  7. Post your face!

    Wow that's awesome.
  8. Other podcasts

    A lot of field recorders have two directional mics, but unless you're posting something akin to a raw audio file, you should still be able to mix it more balanced.
  9. Other podcasts

    What? I have never heard one of these, that is a terrible way to mix audio.
  10. Other podcasts

    Link isn't working for me Apple Cider.
  11. Life

    So sorry to hear Gormanate, it sounds like you and this gentleman were doing something rather incredible together, and I'm sure his memory will live on through you and the rest of the group.
  12. Post your face!

    My girlfriend came to the skatepark with me and I made her take "cool" pictures of me.
  13. Plug your shit

    Congrats on getting another game out there Dino, my high score is 38.7.
  14. Favorite Level in a video game

    I really liked Waterloo World from Psychonauts. Almost every level in that game could be someone's favourite I'm sure, but that one has stuck with me because of the way it plays with scale.
  15. Life

    Sounds like good stuff Badfinger, but, what's water ice?
  16. I liked their little discussion about Pixels. I really liked the point they made about the implications of the character story; that is to say with the story of this movie being about a person whose time spent playing games was worthwhile in the end because aliens, the implication is that in the real world, where there are no aliens, your time with games is wasted.
  17. Math Thread of Fancy Counting

    Ha! I was already preparing to respond saying that was one of my favourite things too. I think this is the relevant video:
  18. Math Thread of Fancy Counting

    Your link to Vi Hart's video goes to the Numberphile channel FYI. Cool stuff about Infinity:
  19. Net.art

    This was linked to me the other day, http://www.scorpiondagger.com/ , I'm not really sure what qualifies as net.art, but I think this does, and it's fantastic.
  20. Cartoons!

    Spenny's totally original Steven Universe theory:

    Spies are prepared for everything.
  22. Life

    How many guns does a spy need? You'd figure about a dozen could pretty much cover all your bases. Also, my birthday is Sunday, the July birthday train keeps rolling.
  23. Where to Find Game Assets (Audio/Textures/Models/Etc)

    https://www.flickr.com/photos/britishlibrary/albums/page1 Albums, make it a little easier to navigate.
  24. Game Jams

    Yeah okay, I have to do some bike tuning then go play boardgames tonight. JAMMIN'!!!
