i was with the game up to MASH THE Z BUTTON TO RESIST BRAINWASHING (while the word "submit" flashes on a television screen).
the game really needs to have "up" be the press-against-the-wall button, and i need to be pressed against that wall as long as i hold the button. also, up + space should get me to an upper floor, as the natural inverse of down + space; instead it just results in the game staring dumbly at me while a guard turns around and spots me.

That's exactly what I thought, I even sent him an email:
| I wrote: | Hi,
I like Tribly but I think it would benefit from a much simpler control system. My suggestion is as follows:
Cursor left / cursor right: Creep
Cursor down: Crouch
Cursor up: Use / examine / steal / enter door / wall flatten
Z: Use tazer
Z + up: Grolly up
Z + Down : Grolly down
See, now you've got one button for all the brolly functionality and the directional buttons control all the movement. Also I guess the 'status' button should be easier to find, since I didn't know there was one until I checked the readme.
James |
Maybe if enough of us email him with the same suggestion. It would help if you didn't call the game 'Tribly' when you contact him, too. |

Yahtzee gets a taste of his own medicine.
Fat surprise: This guy's funnier and better at it.

| Also it's mainly nitpicking. And it's overly long. And not funny. And it kind of looks like he put more effort into it than Yahtzee does into his videos. I approve of the intent behind it, though. |

It was funny, but I'm sure I missed a lot because the guy couldn't enunciate his way out of a wet dictionary. Still, quite funny, a nice parody but at the end of the day I still love Yahtzee and his bile-filled reviews.

You really liked Psychonauts according to the cover, though!
Hey Dracko, you were totally sourced on TIGSource! How does it feel? I bet those clowns at SB regret banning you now!

I got banned months back anyway.
And yeah, I saw. I replied. TIGSource is filled with idiots at the best of times.
Patrick, why so harsh, bro?

Dracko I looked through all your most recent SB posts and I couldn't see what it was that got you banned : ( |

2 Girls 1 Cup in General, under the thread title "Welcome to the new Goatse" (Since moved to the Axe). Patsy complained that I didn't put a NSFW tag, though I thought the title was indicative enough. Then I posted a Last Measure link. Patsy later asked why I hadn't been banned yet in the Axe, and Toups obliged.
TIGS works me up because they're indie twats talking bullshit. And I was mainly joking in that comment. I still think they're idiots who get amused my a British accent more so than recognise actual humour, but that's more or less prevalent among Americans, I tend to find. And the Brits are quick to indulge, because they're pretty much the equivalent of those little mechanical dog plushes that hobble a little then do a backflip and repeat until you shut them off.

I think every nationality has its Uncle Toms.
As for the Tigsource guys that's ok, you'll never have to meet them.
I incurred the wrath of Toups when I was sticking up for you in the Metal Gear Solid thread! Admittedly I was also saying that anyone who likes Metal Gear Solid basically has a deficiency in their brain and is objectively stupid. Later I realised this could have been interperated as trolling! |

RECOGNITION AT LAST.

'Cause I really hated it? I quite seriously had to stop that thing prematurely -- it was a horrible buzzing noise, grating against my brain. Just awful.
Hm. Now I feel bad that I only have ten posts and two of them are me being a meanie about a harmless video.
Maybe I'm kind of an arsehole!  |

I still think black face reviews would be the funniest thing ever.
Maybe you should give it another go. I don't know what you mean about the buzzing.
