i think the near-extinction of people making fun, deep and/or unique interactive text-based browser games, projects and stories is catastrophic to the internet. i'm talking pre-itch.io era, nothing against it.

there are a lot of fun ones listed here and here but for the most part, they were made years ago and are now a dying breed. i get why. there's no money in it. factoring in the cost of web hosting and servers, it probably costs money. it's just sad that it's a dying art form.

anyway, here's some of my favorite browser-based interactive projects and games, if you're into that kind of thing. 90% of them are on the lists that i linked above.

A Better World - create an alternate history timeline

Alter Ego - abandonware birth-to-death life simulator game

Seedship - text-based game about colonizing a new planet

Sandboxels or ThisIsSand - free-falling sand physics games

Little Alchemy 2 - combine various elements to make new ones

Infinite Craft - kind of the same as Little Alchemy

ZenGM - simulate sports

Tamajoji - browser-based tamagotchi

IFDB - interactive fiction database (text adventure games)

Written Realms - more text adventure games with a user interface

The Cafe & Diner - mystery game

The New Campaign Trail - US presidential campaign game

Money Simulator - simulate financial decisions

Genesis - text-based adventure/fantasy game

Level 13 - text-based science fiction adventure game

Miniconomy - player driven economy game

Checkbox Olympics - games involving clicking checkboxes

BrantSteele.net - game show and Hunger Games simulators

Murder Games - fight to the death simulator by Orteil

Cookie Clicker - different but felt weird not including it. by Orteil.

if you're ever thinking about making a niche project that only a select number of individuals will be nerdy enough to enjoy, keep in mind i've been playing some of these games off and on for 20~ years (Alter Ego, for example). quite literally a lifetime of replayability.

I have never connected with the term "trans joy", but in the past year I have found myself experiencing something similar to what I'd imagine a bunch of French kids with trench foot felt bonding against a common enemy on the Western Front.

Lord help me I've been attaching those aggressively masculine ftm motivation graphics to my instagram posts for months to be aesthetic and shit and the whole time they've been fetish content

This is the only straight man in Metal Gear Solid

[cyberhai]

This man is the only one of the fifteen or so closeted grindr users in his rural hometown to post face and he does so at the Republican Facebook Dad angle pointing smugly into the camera.

The second picture on his profile is some uncomfortable freaky Facebook meme someone's divorced mother would comment "Love this! 😂😂😂" on unbeknownst that her entire family can see it. Whore

I now work in a Bojangles. Sundowner would be proud. Every biscuit I bring to golden brown perfection is for him.

I know this man runs a Bojangles like it's the army

Metal Gear bosses will throw a bunch of barrels downhill at you like they're donkey kong while some kind of acid jazz plays in the background, then explode when they finally die after explaining how they were a victim of the Bosnian genocide in one of the most moving cutscenes you've ever seen. And they'll be named some shit like Cocaine Orc.

HEARTBREAKING: character actually mildly interesting to think about but I Dont like their fans

[cyberhai]

images that go hard as fuck

[cyberhai]

Big Boss Metal Gear has the aura of a man who takes all of his clothes off when he has to take a serious shit

[cyberhai]

I think telling Sundowner that Dolly Parton would be disappointed in him in order to survive his wrath is the spiritual equivalent of telling a cartel member not to kill you because it would make Goku sad

This marks the third time this post has exploded in notoriety. Every time I think the hype for autism soldier has died, here come another 99+ notifications.

I made this as a poster for my wall because I think I’m hilarious. Will update once I have printed it out in the school library and taped it to my wall.

For all the gripes I have about Resurrections, Jonathan Groff genuinely put his entire heart and soul into his iteration of Agent Smith.

Also is "root chakra" what we're calling it these days...

i'm normally pro-kink but if your kink is forcefemming trans guys maybe you're just a transphobe
