lets make a videogame how hard can it be

[slimetony]

nevermind you have to know shit about computers

[hthrthebear]

hey!! sorry to hijack this post, but there are a bunch of ways you can make videogames without knowing shit about computers!! 

for starters, there’s Twine, which is fucking great for making all kinds of interactive experiences (it’s what Crystal Warrior Ke$ha was made in so you KNOW it’s good) at all skill levels (i picked it up and made a game in two minutes a few nights ago)

if you want a bit more involved experience there’s Inform 7 which is a simple language for text-based adventure games that reads like slightly-weird English and also relatively easy to learn

you can do some pretty fucking cool stuff with Unity (my personal engine of choice) but you may need to dig a bit farther to get at the good stuff. there’s lots of really good presets though (i made an entire game just mixing and matching pre-existing templates and adding in my own art, won an award at a game jam for that one) and if you want help the community’s pretty dang friendly from what i’ve seen!

this is just a taste of what’s out there from what i’ve seen, but there’s so many cool resources out there. if anyone wants help getting started, i’m around to give you a leg up on making something in the coolest, most unexplored art medium around!

@slimetony how does it feel to have your shitpost be turned into a helpful resource

[slimetony]

It feels like a betrayal of every tenant of humor I subscribe to. Helping people is an alien concept to me. It makes me upset.

WE STILL HERE 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻

[myothertardisisonthemun]

Ok, but ??? Something’s not right here.

[myothertardisisonthemun]

So. Let us investigate. 

Our hypothesis is that SU Earth spins North-South. We can test this by looking for the directions that the sun rises and sets in. 

Here’s a bit of the official Beach City map:

As we can see, the house faces East, the balcony runs North south. So if this is true, the sun will rise and set at either end of it. Let’s see. 

O_0

That’s just one image, could be a fluke. Let’s see some more. Let’s look at how light falls across the temple:

….North to South. Guys! 😵

[myothertardisisonthemun]

If this is the case, the climate would be all messed up.

The icecaps should have relocated to the new rotation points. The tropics would now be a zone running north south. This this redditor has also noticed this phenomenon, and noted that there are globes which still are oriented the old way, suggesting that change is quite recent:

Even if it’s not, the changes to ecosystems and human activity would be quite radical. Climate effects agriculture, architecture, lifestyle - many places would be very different if they were just a bit warmer.

If the SU Earth had used to rotate East-West, then changed, the upheaval would result in extinctions world wide, as creatures struggled with climates they weren’t adapted to.

@keepbeachcityweird, this doesn’t seem normal to me.

[untitled15813]

GUYS THIS THEORY IS FUCKING GORGEOUS!!! Thanks @myothertardisisonthemun for messaging me this because OML this is the best🌝👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

[myothertardisisonthemun]

Thank you for the reblog!

Though actually, I just realised something, I’m going to speculate a bit further on what this sort of Earth could be like.

I’ve assumed that the north south rotating planet’s new poles are locked, oriented facing Prograde and Retrograde (those are the orbital equivalent of forward and backward).

This would be the simplest version of this type of world- Perhaps the Earth’s equatorial bulge could make some sort of tidal locking happen. Idk, we’d need a real astrophysicist to do that analysis.

But if this wasn’t the case, things could get ready wierd.

 There’d likely be no ice caps. Every six months, one of the rotational poles would be facing the sun, and the other in darkness. I don’t think what’s been seen on the show is consistent with that though.

@bunnyravio pointed out in the tags that the Russian crator could have something to do with this. Perhaps an impact altered the rotation:

This, and the view from the Moon w gives us a clue where the new poles would be. Though to make a crator that size, it would need to be bigger than the biggest Earth impact in geological history, so idk… It may not be an impact crator. Its position almost opposite the USA does make me suspicious though…

A few people have raised that this could just be seasonal axis tilt. Nope. That’s only plus or minus 23.5 degrees of vertical, this is far more extreme.

Also, some seem to be confusing this effect as caused by Stevens position on the moon. Not really, that wouldn’t change which part of the Earth is in Darkness.

[ftafp]

This is fucking neato.

[myothertardisisonthemun]

@freneticallyyours’s post has made me realise something esle. The Earth is not only rotating North-South, it could also be tipped over. It depends how intentional the lighting on the moon was.

The angle we see Earth from on the moon, and the lighting around the tower doesn’t add up.

To see the Earth with North facing up, and south down, relative to the horizon, they’d need to be near lunar north pole.

(And also a few degrees towards Earth.)

But the shadows don’t suggest that. You get long shadows at the north pole due to the angle of the sun. Also, the Moon’s terminator (line between light and dark) runs North south. This would make the lighting inconsistent: 

.

This means either the moon’s orbit has changed too, or the Earth was rotated 90 degrees, but still has the same rotation axis relative to the sun.

This makes more sense. How it could get like this is hard to imagine. But like this, it wouldn’t have the crazy extreme seasons, and ice caps could still exist. But the climate displacement would be same as discussed before.

Or, it could just be they didn’t fully think through the angles and lighting on the moon. After all, the lighting on Earth doesn’t match the times of day seen in the episodes.

OMG This is perfect!!! @laughi-sapphi

[marauders4evr]

Oh my god…

I…

I just realized how Rose died.

I’ve only been in the fandom for a few months now but I just realized how Rose Quartz died. See the show and the fandom always talk about how she gave up her physical form to be half of Steven. And I think a lot of people get confused by what she meant.

Like I’ve seen a lot of fanart, metas, theories, etc. which suggest that Rose actually physically gave up her physical form so that she could transform into part of Steven and keep him alive. In other words, Steven is her reincarnation. (Well, he’s half her reincarnation and half of Greg’s DNA.) 

Which never made sense to me but then again I’m new to the show, so I’ve just sort of gone along with it. 

But now I’m here to present you all with a simpler (and ironically, darker) theory.

Steven isn’t a reincarnation of Rose. Steven is just Rose’s child. Which is still impressive and groundbreaking since he’s the first human-gem hybrid. But he’s not a human-gem reincarnation. He’s just their child. All of his powers are inherited from his gem DNA, not from being a reincarnation. I’m going to go so far as to say that even his gem was a product of DNA and not a symbol of the fact that he’s Rose 2.0.

“Ah, but marauders4evr, the show and Rebecca Sugar are always talking about how Rose gave up her physical form to-”

To give birth to Steven.

Yeah.

According to Rebecca Sugar, “Rose shapeshifted a womb for him to be born from.”

Pretty impressive Gem magic.

But here’s the thing.

According to Amethyst in Steven’s Birthday, “Steven, you can’t just keep stretching forever. If you hold it too long, you could really hurt yourself.”

Hmmm…fascinating.

It appears that if a gem shapeshifts for a prolonged period of time, they’ll have severe consequences. And we see this even further when Steven does…

…that.

Now for some odd reason, that turns Steven back into a baby, but that’s not what I’m getting at. I’m getting at the fact that Steven’s body took an extreme physical toll after just a few hours of shapeshifting. Because, as Amethyst said, prolonged exposure to shapeshifting can cause someone to “really hurt themselves”. 

Rose Quartz shapeshifted for nine whole months. And that’s not even counting the stretching she did to push Steven out.

My friends…

When Rebecca Sugar and the show talk about how Rose Quartz gave up her physical form to give birth to Steven, they literally mean that Rose Quartz stretched herself out for such a prolonged period of time that her body (ie: her physical form) eventually faced the consequences and withered away into nothingness.

Steven’s Birthday wasn’t just a filler episode. It was the key to showing us the process by which his mother died.
