Brennan: I'm gonna make a little code in a fake language and give them just the tiniest clue of how they might crack it and it’ll be a tantalizing little mystery for them

when your art program’s closing message hits you straight in the heart and makes you stop and contemplate the state of it all

[aurosoulart]

because of the huge response to this post, I decided to make a version of the art that includes the text

I’ve also uploaded this design to INPRNT, and all sales proceeds will be donated to environmental and humanitarian charities!

[aurosoulart]

this is still going around with the old dead links - please help me share this version

(loosely based on the tags dremenec left on one of my posts three days ago i don't know if this is what they meant, but when i read the tags A Lingering Image™ entered my head and i have not been able to get it out)

[assortedbowloffruit]

you see it. you see my vision

[dremenec]

Going back to how every Huntrix has a different traversal mechanic........

Rumi's is she can go into dark rooms

Zoey can climb through vents

Mira can scale knee-high walls

But the kicker is that you only get a limited time to do your tasks/puzzles

Because there's a "separation anxiety" bar that depletes while you leave the other two standing around

If you let the bar drop completely, they all burst into tears and the game bricks itself entirely

[assortedbowloffruit]

it's for your own safety, mira. you Need to wear the hats (+the shorter the wall the funnier it is that they can't cross it. i love videogame logic where the cool action hero inexplicably Cannot Jump)

[dremenec]

Rumi is in the wrong genre entirely but she's living her best life

Owing to the tight development timeline, the infinite backpack glitch was never discovered or patched

[assortedbowloffruit]

i see your 'Rumi has no idea what genre they're actually in' and i raise you 'Zoey ALSO has no idea what genre they're actually in' (on account of the hayfever)

(+spinning around these tags from frog4278 in my mind. i am not immune to fashionista mira propaganda. by which i mean the s-aint-elmo fashionista mira posts were so powerful that they instantly made fashionista mira canon in my heart forever)

[dremenec]

See you think the survival horror element of the game is the zombies and traps and haunted duck rides BUT it is also the puzzles and challenges, which are crafted specifically to psychologically traumatize each player character (especially fashion suffering s-aint-elmo mira)

(They also tried chucking Zoey over the ankle-high walls but she splattered against the invisible barrier

(However this did lead them to unlock a secret move called fastball special where Rumi can launch Zoey directly into enemies for an instakill.

(It only works if she manages to hit them.

(Which has yet to happen, but they try))))

[assortedbowloffruit]

the existence of non-zoerumi contacts that mira can send embarrassing outfit pictures to implies that the other kpdh characters are also somewhere out there (i choose to believe everyone else is just chilling on a beach while they wander the haunted amusement park of ambiguous size)

+ bonus tags from frog4278

[frog4278]

Look at my party dawg we're gonna die!!!!!

Mira's outfit reminded me of Marinette from Miraculous Ladybug for some reason so that's why she's there. We can just say she's an NPC party member

[dremenec]

Playing as Mira is basically hard mode because you have two needy characters showing you stuff and accidentally inflicting fatal status effects (they're arguably more dangerous than the actual enemies)

(desc in alt if you can't read my handwriting)

And a sneak peak at the loading screen (featuring return of tricycle Zoey (I only have one joke (and the joke is "Zoey is short")))

+spinning around the vague idea of divorce mechanics in my head

[frog4278]

Obsessed obsessed with both of your art styles especially you assortedbowloffruit your art is so simple yet clean and detailed mwah mwah

and @dremenec I saw your post after I got off of work yesterday and it literally made my entire night I want you to know that. AND THE ANIMATION IS ADORABLE!!!!!!

Big fan of the implication that Marinette is some sort of curse that only YOU can see after recovering from Divorce and the others can't see her unless they also go through Divorce. Like the Social Bunny from Sims 2 where you just look insane

Mira out here with the Fear and Hunger level of status effects if she doesn't find a stash of Monster soon she's COOKED

[dremenec]

They're way too overencumbered to carry her, but there are ways and means, ways and means indeed...

Talk about a FLASH light ha ha ha ha

(this game is not beating the E for Everyone allegations

(but you know it's a good immersive sim when the answer to a puzzle is "induce gay thirst"

(if rumi and mira are divorced at this point the game flips a coin to decide if you are permanently softlocked or whether an unskippable reunion cutscene plays

(the cutscene has been banned in several countries for reports of inducing seizures

(and spontaneous homosexuality)))))

i am not immune to honglock propaganda. by which i mean i saw the honglock posts and folded immediately. netflix, please give zoey a honglock in kpop demon hunters 2 (context for this iteration of the honglock)

[sniperct]

mira getting caught on a hot mic or fan cam calling rumi princess while her arms are draped around both rumi and zoey send tweet

[lordcryosrealmoftrash]

To the fans, Mira did always seem somewhat cold. Like she was above it all. Only a small section of fans, the ones who ship her with the girls, insisted she was a softy.

But then this happens. She's not acting, she's not putting on a face, she is genuinely that loving towards these two. Fans go feral. Overnight loverboy and husband coded Mira shoot to the top of trending tags. As it continues it unites into lover girl Mira.

Mira is mortified by the ordeal of being perceived, Zoey is loving all the edits, fancams, and theories, and Rumi is just upset about how fans have immediately clocked her as the bottom

[wolffyluna]

#as a professional carnie i gotta say#wlw have a special inate ability at these games i swear to god#there used to be some kind of year#yearly retreat for?? idk what but it was made of almost entirely butch women#and there would be like a whole day the part was just overrun by gay ladies#and when the catering hall let their party out they all wanted nothing more than clean fucking house for their gifriends and wivesa#we all knew it was coming. wed all be like todays the lesbian day guys get everything stocked#and this isnt like the o be weird or something abt butch women being strong or athletic#i mean they would win games of chance way more often than straight couples#gay dudes do not factor in cuz we all suck balls at those games literally they were all awful#one very out gay coworker i had would openly tell them like look from one of us to another keep walking these arent for us they just arent#but girls? girls dating other girls? it was on sight they all won all the time (via @transkeiichi)

[e-v-roslyn]

"Today's the lesbian day guys get everything stocked" is sending me

[canonkiller]

but you can't keep holding on like this.

[xanthera]

Someone on TikTok pointed out that Mira and Zoey were probably still wearing the earpieces that let them hear each other's voices over the music when they chased after the Bobby doppelganger at the Idol Awards. So when Takedown started playing and they went running back, they could still hear Rumi on stage.

Meaning they definitely heard Rumi scream, "Please, stop!" directly in their ears with zero context while they were desperately trying to get to her.

Anyway, angst writers who like giving the girls nightmares about the Idol Awards, please feel free to hurt us more by including this in Mira and Zoey's nightmares :)

IT’S TIME

[kiwinatorwaffles]

having adhd and being a creator is like being on a timer. oh sorry you have this art idea? well you have approximately 12 hours to start it and 6 hours to finish the task or else you will lose interest and inevitably move on. oh you have an idea for a one-shot? well you’d better finish it in a day unless you want to banish it to your wips forever. ding dong bitch

[azrielsshadows42]

There are two types of writers:

1. 'It's fiction, it doesn't need to make sense!'

2. 'I didn't account for the rotation of the planet and how that affects the constalations while my characters stargazed at different times of year, I have failed as a writer, and this entire thing is trash'
