Yoko’s Island Express: Pinball Metroidvania!
Yoko’s Island Express: Pinball Metroidvania!
Here’s a weird one I had a half-baked idea for: Tower Defense Metroidvania. The idea is that your an acolyte of a temple (or a mechanic in a space station, whatever), and there’s an armed group trying to force their way past the temple’s traps and defenses to get to the heart of the temple and steal the macguffin; that’s going on in a little horizontal track at the top of the screen, and meanwhile the rest of the screen is Metroidvania gameplay as you navigate the interior of the temple (or space station) to activate defenses, acquire magical relics, and eventually awaken the temple’s guardian spirit. You lose if the bad guys get to the heart of the temple, you win when you successfully gather everything you need to awaken the guardian. In the meantime, you have to decide when and where to spend resources (including time) shoring up the “normal” defenses (that delay the attackers) and when you need to just push onward to awaken the guardian.
Tampopo is pretty great, and, I feel, pretty obscure as well.

Assuming your username on lemmy.world was the same as the one you’re using here, you received the ban for being a “disrespectful troll”: https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&userId=466656
(Edit: apparently it was originally a 29 day ban, but the admin removed it and re-entered it as a 2 day ban; unclear if that’s because they changed their mind, or because the 29 was a typo from the start)
Much easier, in fact; Eliza could pass the Turing test in 1966. Humans are incredibly eager to assess other things as being human or human-like.
He bought the domain back later, actually.
That third one can be tough, but I think it’s super important, and, not just in tech.
That said, also recognize that not every new skill or tool is necessarily appropriate for a particular task. You should still learn them, though, otherwise when they are appropriate, you may not even recognize it.
But that’s exactly what they just said isn’t UBI, with UBI you’d get to keep the money while working if you wanted to. “Universal” means everyone gets it, not just people who “claim to be uncomfortable working”.
