i just uploaded all my art off this blog to DA, so it’s time for the big ol’ where else to find me post
Mastodon
Managed to snag a mastodon.social user before they went invite only. Pick an instance of your liking and search for @[email protected] with the search bar.
Discord
Linked is my personal Discord server. I mainly use it to store emotes but if you need to get a hold of me you can ping me/friend me through that. Otherwise just friend req me directly: Orangestar#1432. I also run the Undertale Subreddit Discord, so that’s another great place to find me.
YouTube
I’d like to do more videos about Video Games, but currently I only have a few videos about Video Games but I think they’re funny so if you’re looking for a laugh hit them up.
SoundCloud
I’ve posted a couple of my shitposts on here already, but just for completeness’s sake, here’s the whole damn account. Hopefully someday I’ll recapture the magic of when I was first starting out on that site.
DeviantArt
From here on out, I’ll probably be uploading my art directly to DeviantArt. As much shit as we give it, it’s probably one of the best places to archive and view art.
Twitter
My Twitter account is currently locked for dumb bullshit reasons. The link is here in the hopes that one day it will be unlocked, but I’m not going to use it ever again.
Alternative Twitter
Converted an old bot account into an alt after the lock. I don’t post on it but you can use it to send me DMs.
I’m probably not gonna give up 100% on Tumblr but I worry about it staying afloat and I don’t really post here often anyway. Expect my continued posting on here to be mostly boosting my own art and updates with less flavorful descriptions. Mostly just “Hey I drew another thing here’s the DA link. Hey I made another shitpost here’s the SC link.”
Posts being flagged as sensitive content and how to fix it
A ton of posts are now being flagged as sensitive content thanks to Tumblr’s new idea to make it adult content free. However, you can request a review so they can fix it. I know it’s tiring, and I know it’s not our fault that Tumblr can’t do a simple thing right, but I refuse to have any of my SFW creations being taken down just because Tumblr doesn’t know how to write an algorithm.
So here’s what you can do, even if you aren’t the OP.
Any post that has been flagged will show something like the image below at the top of the post, even if it’s a reblog.
If you’re the OP, a REVIEW link will show up at the right margin of the red bar where it says “Your post was flagged”. Click on it, and then click REQUEST REVIEW, like the image below.
After you’ll get a message in an orange bar saying “Your post is in content appeal”, meaning they’re evaluating whether their algorithm screwed up or not. If it was wrongfully marked as sensitive (and it most likely was), you’ll get an email being alerted to that your post is now visible to everyone again.
Alternatively, if you aren’t the OP, but your reblogs are flagged as well, (which in this case, you’ll see something like the image below in your flagged reblog), you can message the OP about it so they can request a review.
Please, don’t ignore this! It’s bad enough that adult content is being deleted because Tumblr can’t deal with p*rn bots, but having content that has absolutely nothing to with adult content being deleted as well can be fixed, even if we’re the ones who have to ask for said fix.
see it’s nice that’s an option but all of my reblogs are from blogs that have long since been deactivated so it literally can’t be reviewed by anyone at all for any reason
Soup.io - well-known alternative to Tumblr. Reblogging, post types, themes, collab blogs, dashboard, artsy, great community already there. Soup can auto-import everything you’ve posted on Tumblr.
TypePad - Includes reblogging. Dashboard and post types similar to Tumblr.
Pillowfort is looking super good, tho it’s down right now for maintainance. Once it’s back up later this week, that’s where I’ll be moving. It has much better privacy features than tumblr and a no tolerance policy on nazis and pedos. Plus NSFW content is perfectly fine, providing you keep it properly tagged and categorized.
A little over 48 hours ago, it was not my birthday in Sweden, where Vargskelethor ( A.K.A. Joel from Vinesauce) uploaded the VOD featuring the Doom WAD I submitted for his contest. It was my birthday during that time here in The States. Time is fun.
I told everyone when he finally played it I would upload it for everyone to enjoy, and here it is, and then some.
Get Up And Kill! (Colloquially known around by me and my friends as “Guac” like Guacamole but pronounced by Joel as “GWEK” so I guess it’s “GWEK” now) is a single Doom level made with the intention of feeling like a semi-retro mod that could’ve been made with PrBoom+ and some DeHackEd patches.
More info + Release under the cut.
Features
Neon color Industrial-Punk aesthetic (Described by Joel as “Birthday Shake”)
Over-the-top enemy placement and humor
5 original 3D weapons and tons of replacement color-coded pickups to match (that look bad because I was strapped for time)
Grading system that goes from A, the lowest grade, to XXX EX GRAND MASTER, the highest.
New Zombiemen sounds from Ghost Squad (Wii)
Quadruple bass pedal drums that I liked but everyone seems to make fun of
Semi-Nonlinear level design
Transparent Swimmable 3D Floors
Dynamically lighted explosions
Easy difficulty for accessibility
Cooperative player starts
A finishing gauntlet featuring two cyberdemons and a boss battle with a double-health Spider Mastermind and his Arachnotron cohorts. Especially difficult if you’re going for 100% kills!
Known Bugs
If the Status Bar’s scaling options (Options > HUD Options > Scaling Options) aren’t set to 1 or using the defaults like this then your HUD will be ridiculously huge. This bug was introduced in the very version of GZDoom that Joel ended up using for the contest. Thanks, Graf.
Autosaves only trigger once, so it’s possible to use up an autosave and then not go through the portion it was intended for.
The invulnerability sphere was supposed to have been edited to have a golden colormap (seen here after applying a quick patch) but instead I appear to have uploaded and backed up the wrong wad so it’s the default inverse colormap which looks like hell on the neon-soaked textures.
I forgot to render the Handcannons with a right hand holding them so only the left hand is visible.
The title “Get Up And Kill” is incorrectly attributed to Bruno Mattei’s Hell of the Living Dead, a film about rats that transmit an infectious zombie virus. The line actually comes from Bruno Mattei’s Rats, a film about rats that transmit an infectious zombie virus.
Sometimes the EFX explosions will damage you. I don’t know why.
You can continue to control your character after winning. Using the console command Spynext will change the camera back to your player so you can see yourself. This does not change your ending stats.
The sound effect that plays when you get a secret is actually unecessarily long because I forgot to trim it, so after getting a secret you’ll still hear some really quiet crowd cheering noises and instrumental breaks.
Due to miscalculation on monsters in the level, you can only achieve a XXX rating for Demons Trashed by waiting for Pain Elementals to spawn over 30 Lost Souls or by killing any respawned demons on Nightmare!. (The level has 217 monsters on normal, and there are three Pain Elementals which will generate at least an additional 9 monsters. XXX grade requires you to kill 257 monsters.)
Onto the actual release, I actually have three versions of Get Up And Kill to give you today. Championship Edition, Director’s Cut, and Original Mix.
Championship Edition
CE is the warts-and-all WAD that was submitted directly to Joel’s contest. It features everything you see in the WAD as it showed up on the above-linked VOD and everything Joel missed as well. Untouched and preserved for archival and interest.
Get it here!
Director’s Cut
Obviously, I can’t say I made a patch and then not release it, right? DX is GUAK with a few post-release quirks mitigated and fixed, though still a little rough around the edges. Differences between CE and DX:
The bugs listed above that are in italics are fixed.
References to the “Chat” and other things specific to Vargskelethor’s Twitch stream have been removed.
Leftover debug code has been cleaned up and removed.
Deathmatch spawns and weapons have been added to the map, as per Joel’s suggestion.
Scripts have been tweaked to run automatically when a Deathmatch game is detected.
Leftover DECORATE actors and their corresponding sprites that were not used in the final product have been removed.
The unused Titlemap has been removed.
The requirements for achieving a XXX grade for Demons Trashed has been reduced to accommodate how many demons are actually in the level. (This is one of the italicized bugs but I wanted to elaborate.)
Grades for time have been sparsed out somewhat. While you are still required to achieve a time under 2 minutes for a XXX rating, most play sessions are usually 6 and a half minutes or higher: Far exceeding the lowest grade requirement (400 seconds or 6.6 minutes for an S).
Obviously these fixes actually make GUAK-DX smaller in filesize than GUAK. I highly recommend it.
Get it here!
Original Mix
The final version of GUAK is a very special one. During the video, Joel mentioned that he’d love to play through the entirety of Doom 2 with the weapons. Well, now you can. The WAD was designed from the start to easily mesh with other Doom wads because I’m insane, and Original Mix allows you to mix GUAK weapons with almost any level you desire. Some discrepancies between GUAK (DX), GUAK OM, and Doom 2:
In GUAK, Zombiemen and Shotguys dropped Jury Rifles (the Pistol replacement.) Since this was done by replacing the actors entirely, in GUAK OM they simply drop boxes of scrap (Clip replacements) and Scrapshoots (Shotgun replacements)
In a desperate attempt at balance, Scrapshoots and Handcannons will spawn differently from normal Shotguns and Chainguns. You’ll get used to it.
Boxes of Pistol ammo will instead spawn 2 charges of scrap and 2 charges of rounds.
Scrap charges give you 20 ammo instead of 10.
Since there is no Fusion Coolant equivalent for the Big Cell Packs, Big Cell Packs now just spawn a bunch of Fusion Coolant.
There is no BFG replacement. The BFG spawns as is and still uses its own ammo that does not spawn anymore, so you only get charges for your BFG by collecting other BFGs. Use it wisely.
The Scrapshoot now uses more ammo.
The Sonic Emitter will give you 5 charges on pickup instead of just 2.
The Fusion Rifle will give you 50 charges on pickup.
Guns now leave decals on walls.
The default status bar is used.
There is no Titlemap or M_DOOM replacement. Sorry.
GUAK OM should work with most level packs, and anything that doesn’t rely on changing the guns at all. If you find any bugs while playing it, please let me know! I’d love to make this playable in all kinds of level packs if possible.
Get it here!
If you’re wondering why I haven’t put it on the ZDoom forums... well they kind of have a rule against posting WADs with other people’s resources. This is listed as being only for people from the ZDoom community specifically, but since I used audio from Ghost Squad for Wii by Sega, a sound from Rockband 2 by Harmonix, sprites and textures from Duke Nukem 3D by 3D Realms, and graphics from Revolution X by Midway, I don’t want to take my chances. If this is fine to post please let me know and I’ll go ahead and do so.
In closing uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh, I think it’s funny that Joel referenced Meteor, one of my favorite DOS freeware games, when he first saw this wad. That’s really hilarious.
That’s it! That’s all! Please enjoy this thing I spent a lot of time on and tell all your friends.
Emergency Broadcast Network came out with this in 1993, over 10 years before Youtube was founded. They’re the forebearers of Youtube poop. Still holds up too.
