"Ok maybe Heartbound didn't run on a fridge. What matters is that it could."
Pathetic.

He could demonstrate Heartbound running on a low-spec device to own the obsessive haters, it'd be trivial to do but he won't do it. He doesn't know how to do it or where to begin.
It's pretty retarded for him to die on this hill specifically that his game is some super optimized game when the game he's making is unimpressive visually and mechanically. Nothing he did outside of choosing the engine and genre of game has given credence to his 1337 coding skillz he apparently has on creating an "optimized game." I could go on but he's genuinely retarded for guarding the smartfridge/optimized game shit so hard when it just gives detractors more ammunition.
The fridge thing is retarded because smart fridges often have decent enough setups for the terribly inefficient UIs they come with. Like many embedded systems like those often have 8-16 GB of RAM and some oomph, they're not barebones systems.

It's just a stupid example to use in the first place for any of this on account only that besides the fact "smart fridge" isn't a standardized form factor.
 
There's some flaws fundamentally with this reasoning that I could dig into. But the one I'll give for why this is stupid is this. The issue for this reasoning is that viewers have only themselves to blame in encountering spoilers in a GAME DEV STREAM. By the mere fact of it being a stream focused on working on a game you're effectively spoiling yourself anyways by even watching the stream. So point being, who cares about spoilers if you're literally streaming yourself working on any aspect of the game.
But how can people be spoiled by his code? All the spoiler stuff is done by magic number that is labeled with the choice name instead of anything that would be an actual spoiler. If someone wanted to get spoiled they would need to be following along with a pen and paper taking detailed notes.

Not really sure how different this is then what he posted last week in the "Spoilers" chat.
The previous version I was tracking had 14 paths, this one has 16. The change is the new 'Emelio' dialogue under Fern > JudgmentY.

It's so fucking cringe how he breaks it down that much just to make volume out of it.
It doesn't even feel like a proper changelog.
Not just because it's spoiler-y, but because it's such a lifeless, convoluted way to present it.
It could have just been something like "Completed lunch routes for Fern and Rhode". Done.

Also, he says
> "I have been working on implementation and testing today"
Can you imagine he only started testing stuff today... :story:still not out BTW

It's just another excuse, he does not work on the game.
It's been only barely patched versions of 1.0.9 since Feb 2021.
1.0.8 came out in Sep 2019.
 
I fucking hope he does, if I had to translate this piece of shit? I'd probably quit the project without taking the money.
Reason for this is that, the way he coded his dialogue system is that each dialogue window is a new script with a new array with the phrases, so you're going to have to sift through loads of different scripts, it's horrifying.
The coding spergs had their fun, now it's the translation sperg's turn.
Usually, the code's quality doesn't matter to the translators because they won't even get to see it. They're given the game's text separately and it's the dev's job to place the translated text in the correct spot in the game afterwards. Of course, I'm talking about what's usually done in a professional setting, if Mald isn't aware of this he may very well be giving translators access to his code, which just makes me wish them good luck.

Second of all, no one in their right mind would even worry about translations until the project is complete. That's just wasting time and I can't think of anyone retarded enough to break their workflow to run their writing through 6 different translators. No fucking WAY Jason knows 2 languages, let alone all 6. So he's just putting his writing through some automated slop program and delivering garbage translations to his audience.
Nothing new there, I suppose.
Mald's retardation truly hits harder when it's about something you have experience with.

So he's stopping to individually pass every single line of dialogue through a machine translator while writing? With that workflow I'm willing to bet that the end product is gonna be as readable as Pokemon Vietnamese Crystal. And every time he edits old lines he needs to waste time to translate them again. Oh, he went back to change a line of dialogue? Now he has to redo his previous translation. Six. Times.

ok im going to sleep
but im really happy with how it turns out to be

I know I'm late as fuck, but it would be cool if the companies had their respective logos' colors so it'd be easier to tell which is which. It took me a while to realize War is Activision Blizzard and that Death is Sony.
 
A man with the professional background of Second Life Porn Asset Salesman would do nothing but furry porn if he would be ever equipped with a VN engine. It's best that he's writing his own engine, however bad it is.
He's using Game Maker, incredibly poorly at that. Game Maker is made to be usable for people with zero programming ability.
 
"Heartbound has game logic tied to the FPS so that certain parts of the ARG can work."

I don't know what's funnier, if he thinks this excuse will work or if he really couldn't get something to work without tying the game logic fully to the framerate. :story:

I know it's GameMaker but surely he could've programmed the game logic with delta time at 60fps and let the renderer go at it.
 
Do you think hes being more careful to not kill he ferrets while raping them, or are they just not going to announce any more deaths because of the drama?

But then what excuse he'll come up with when he decides he's too tired to stream despite claiming he only needs 3-4 hours of sleep everyday?

Although that would be insanely psychopathic...killing his ferret one by one as an excuse so he can sleep the whole day to make up for his lack of sleep :story:

There is a reason why he needs access to a limitless supply of fresh onaholes ferrets. If he was a gentle lover he would only need one.
 
3 more pages to 1,000!!! Keep pushing keep harvesting!
I was hoping the OP rewrite would be finished in time, but the maker is taking their time with it. This is NOT a jab btw, I think OP quality has grown over the years, and users like them are the reason, going over painstaking detail through MULTIPLE OP posts. While OP's being novel length is definitely something, ill take a novel length OP over a small incomplete one any day of the week
 
Lolol Mujin came out with a video.
Dude does 98% vtube drama content but even he had to come out and dunk on Mald.
He's usually pretty well researched but can go on irrelevant tangents due to a very young audience

I can't preserve so if someone feel inclined:)
