Since you seem to both play dating sims that go more into the BL/Yaoi genreand ones that are targeted towards gay men, have you noticed any major differences? And do you have a preference between the two? For example, I've seen that the scout game artbook has detailed on every guy's dick like how much they grow when erect and all that. Do cis gay men find that sort of thing hot? It's just sort of bewildering to me

Honestly it's not often that easy to draw a hard line between those two. I use the term "gay dating sim" for either interchangeably, and tend to treat both BL and yaoi as culturally-specific terms related to either Japanese games or those that make extensive use of tropes common in that sort of Japanese media. By that metric, Full Service and Camp Buddy and its sequel would be BL...but what about Coming Out on Top? Dream Daddy? Any of the others I've talked about?

As such it's hard for me to say that I have a preference. I've never cared about the minutiae of character stats of any sort, even when they show up in other types of games like modern Fire Emblem. It just seems excessive and unnecessary to me to have to know things like characters' heights/weights, exact ages, and even sometimes blood types - I think that one is a Japanese thing?. I'm also not a size queen in real life, so of course I don't care about the dick sizes of fictional characters. (That the term "size queen" even exists is however testament to the reality that it is a big deal for some gay men.) Obviously some of these guys are too absurdly large to be believable - like Goro in Scoutmaster Season - but I get that that's a kink thing and can respect when these games step outside the realm of the purely vanilla. It's occurred to me that, while I definitely prefer my visual novels to have sex scenes, they need to have something more than that to interest me. That can be more involved gameplay elements like Full Service, kink variety like Dear Monster and others, or even just a well-told story that aims to be realistic even with darker subjects like Dead Man's Rest. That doesn't really answer your question, but as I said I don't draw much of a distinction in the first place.

Case in point, I've been following along with the demo and Kickstarter for BLits's next game Jock Studio. If their list of goals is to be believed, it's looking to be the biggest gay dating sim to have ever existed by pretty much any metric. They've got a lot of backers and are estimating two years to work on everything, but it's still a lot to conceive. I find myself just as interested in their evolutions on the standard gameplay formula as I am their plans for more and hotter sex scenes. If I'm still on YouTube in 2025 and Jock Studio actually delivers on everything that it's promising, I may have to make a video about it. My extremely petty wish for the world of gay dating sims is that eventually one of these games will become more well-known than Dream Daddy...and if I can help make that happen, all the better.

i have a fantastic announcement 'beat emotes through his glasses' crew. his glasses are actually animated in the first game and the frequency seems to be like that of a blinking animation in the dreamcast release (gif above).

however, upon testing, i have discovered he is bugged in the 2012 port and this is only viewable as intended via his encounter with combo. during normal gameplay (where this animation also is supposed to play) his glasses only are animated on one lens, generally the one closest to the camera. (gif below)

yoyo too is affected by the differences between the dreamcast and port, though his texture animation is Far harder to notice. i find that having his expression textures right there helps you pick it out better, so here it is with a dreamcast gif below it

it only shows up on his left lens for a second, and similar to beat, this animation only plays during his challenge in the 2012 port. during normal gameplay, this animation is Entirely absent.

So I was re-watching "Oops" grabbing some screenshots for a different rant when it occurred to me, damn, Striker really should not have been in this episode. I know it's not a hot-take, lots of ppl have said this already, but I mean even for the way the writers want the show to go, right down to tone, they really botched an opportunity. I'll let someone else talk about how Striker working with Crimson makes both antagonists so much less intimidating, right now I'm just gonna focus on the narrative so far, and unfortunately for a lot of critics of the main ship it's pushing, this will have a lot to do with Stolitz.

So when we first meet Striker, it's in "The Harvest Moon Festival". The episode starts with Stolas inviting Blitz and the gang to be his royal guests at said festival. Blitz makes him promise it's neither murder work nor a sex thing and Stolas agrees. This is (to the audience's knowledge) the first time Stolas has invited Blitz out to be seen together publicly without any strings attached. He's not being bought, he's not acting as a bodyguard, and he's not expected to bang anyone at the end of the day.

Blitz meets Striker, Striker boosts up Blitz's ego immediately, they enter the pain games together, split the win, have a general good time, and at some point off screen, Blitz offers Striker a job at I.M.P.

And then Blitz catches Striker trying to kill Stolas. He's pissed, but not as pissed as he gets when Striker almost causes him to shoot Moxxie.

Blitz bites the man and puts a hole through the wall during the fight. They really go at it, it's a pretty intense fight, and you can really feel the rage in Blitz during it.

Putting a pin in Stiker for a minute, let's skip to the next episode, "Truth Seekers" we get a peek into Blitz's headspace surrounding Stolas. He feels chained to Stolas, but through his expressions during the staircase climb, it feels like he wants it to be more than just transactional. Well, at the least, hopes it can be more. Stolas swoops in at the end of the episode and (not without belittling Blitz verbally) saves Blitz and the people he most cares about. And then Stolas asks for a "reward". This 100% highlights Blitz's torn feelings. Does he let himself believe the care is real, or is it just for sex at the end? Well...

He got his answer didn't he? Stolas doesn't stand up to Ozzie for him. He doesn't make a clear statement that Blitz is more than just a cheap lay. And that hurts.

At the end of the night Blitz can barely get the words out to set a boundary for himself.

The next time we see these two interact is in "Seeing Stars". Do we get to see the resolve of the night at Ozzie's? Nope. But something has clearly changed since then, bc not only does Blitz show genuine concern for Stolas and try to reassure him, at one point, briefly, he's even receptive to Stolas's flirting again.

Two episodes later, Striker is back. Blitz very much so has complicated feelings surrounding Stolas at this point, but he shows not just concern, but both fear and rage again at the thought of Striker harming Stolas.

One could definitely argue at this point that this is about his means to continue his business and source of income and that of his employees, but there is something to be said about him almost cancelling Loona's doctor appointment to go save the rotten owl. Loona is always Blitz's first priority, and though a single vaccine might seem small in comparison to a life, if it really took five years for an appointment, that could be his daughter's life as well, assuming "hellbies" is just rabies but it's in hell. He thought about it. He was ready to turn the car around when Millie and Moxxie stepped in.

And even though Striker got majorly character assassinated in the episode, he tore up Stolas really bad. Him and his angelic weapons do carry real stakes with them, however much they want to make him a joke character. (Again, such a waste of potential)

With the narrative we know the writers are going with, Blitz does care about Stolas. The realization he can get hurt is probably shocking and terrifying to Blitz. He'd probably both be angry with himself for not going, but getting to the original point, he'd probably be furious at Striker.

Now I know Helluva has a huge tone issue. Is it a comedy? A lot of the time, yeah. Is it a drama? There's definitely drama in it. Romance? Highly debatable. Horror? I mean, it does take place in literal hell, so. Action? It's mixed in there too.

Personally though, I would like to think that the next time Blitz saw Striker, he'd tear him to shreds. I'd think the tone would be on the more serious side. He's hurt Millie and Moxxie very badly in Harvest Moon, he's hurt Stolas to the point he was hospitalized, that's three of the four people Blitz is currently close with. Narratively speaking, Striker could easily be Blitz's main external antagonist. It works both from a more action based tone, but also if you want to push Stolitz, which we know they do. And yet...

He's just an irritation for Blitz.

He didn't need to be there, it could have just been Crimson and his sharks. Would it have felt weird having him be a stand alone villain again just 3 episodes after he was first introduced, sure. But not any weirder than Stella's personal hitman looking for work in Greed and just happening to find it with said Mafia boss.

I know this was a Blitz/Fizz episode, I get that, I'm not complaining about that, hell, it literally could have been just them figuring their shit out together. But that just makes it even more glaring that Striker shouldn't have been there. This wasn't about him, this wasn't for him.

He's cowboy themed, right? And he's given Blitz plenty of reason to beat the absolute shit out of him? After hurting Stolas like that, (narratively speaking) his next showdown with Blitz should have been some high noon duel shit. Blitz rocked the vest in Harvest Moon, just give him the duel revolvers and start counting steps.

How I Came to Love the Bomb: Mammon's Musical Special and the Spectacle of Mediocrity

A little more than halfway through the second season, Helluva Boss has finally found its place where it performs best: embracing its own mediocrity with an emphasis on shallow storytelling and a narrative death spiral that only serves to strip the world and characters of depth every time they are engaged with. It’s almost disappointing to see how highly rated this episode is by fellow critics solely because of the superficial aspects that add nothing to the plot, nor do these scenes affect change in the characters. It is far from the worst episode, but it has every major narrative flaw from every previous episode inside of it, that seems to get a pass because it's a “Special” and not necessarily expected to progress the main series in any way. My counterpoint is that an episode that is self-contained should then be able to narratively progress a character, if not the plot, which Medrano and her team continues to fail to accomplish.

To make my points concise, I will alternatively deconstruct the episode as is while including a general rewrite of how Medrano could have accomplished the same story with any shred of competence.

The narrative needs to skip around a bit, so, starting from the present, FizzaRolli is in a frenzied state of distress while looking for his foundation to hide his imperfections. It is far from a subtle metaphor of Fizz requiring the image of perfection while being “broken” underneath. It isn’t in any way revolutionary from the setup to the execution, though that isn’t to insinuate it is bad because it is unoriginal. Arguably, nothing is. But this scene establishes the major conflict throughout the episode, that being FizzaRolli's self-esteem. The issue is, this scene is a contradiction from the actual cold opening.

FizzaRolli and Blitz going to the Mammon show sets up the entire backstory premise of FizzaRolli’s climb to fame, but presents a confusing representation of what Fizz’s self-esteem issues are. There are generally a ton of problems with this opening on a systemic scale. Why is the circus so run down if FizzaRolli’s shows are so popular that he has a fanclub as a teenager? Why is it the audience is supposed to be invested in FizzaRolli’s self-esteem about being good enough when every external indicator in the episode shows Fizz as already being at the top of his game. The star of the circus, his own obsessive fanclub, winning Mammon’s clown pageant and being the “Host with the Most” for Ozzie’s shows a character who has maintained a very consistent rise to fame. Shoehorning in a singular and random nobody claiming Fizz is overrated after fawning all over him doesn’t warrant the tearful meltdown he has associated with his abilities, nor would it warrant the shaky sense of esteem he apparently keeps with him the entire rest of his life. Even in Oops, it's Blit’s insinuation of FizzaRolli being a sugar baby pet of Ozzie’s that upsets him, not any jab at Fizz’s abilities.

The alternative version that would have made all of this make sense would have been not questioning FizzaRolli’s ability to do, but the crushing weight of expectation to continue to succeed. The fear of having “peaked”. It’s why he can both be at the top and severely anxious. The knowledge that once you’re at the top, there is an awfully long way to fall would have made far more sense than Fizz questioning his actual ability to get to where he is. The reason Fizz can’t be obtuse to his popularity and fame is because of every other episode we have actively seen him revel in it. Just the episode prior he is so confident in his status that he shows off ostentatiously with a limo decked out in phallic shaped sparklers and even says that it's nice not to be a recognized celebrity after that display. It’s clear that being “good enough” is not a long-standing fear for Fizz’s character, but that it should have been the pressure to keep being “good enough”. This misinterpretation of what their own character’s weaknesses are, and said weakness being the plot, is the root of the obnoxious weed that has strangled the show from the beginning.

Once again, I also can’t help but point out the lack of information on Tilla is still a huge problem with this storyline. For a character whose existence is the inciting incident for the entire series:

1) Blitzo meets Stolas to “help” his mom, being the inciting incident for the entire series to this point.

2) Tilla’s implied death in the fire is why Blitzo lost his family as a whole

3) Tilla’s implied illness is why it makes implied sense that money was never used to make the circus better/safer so the fire never happened despite FizzaRolli being so popular that he has a rabid fanbase so he must be making the circus substantial money, which Cash even claims when he is a child.

As I said, this episode is merely the accumulation of every other episode’s main problems put front and center. It’s almost an exercise in self denial to limit the number of tangents that my arguments could go down.

Regardless, the insecurity in the flashback sequence of FizzaRolli and Blitz is fundamentally not the same insecurity as seen in the rest of the episode. Not only does it not make sense for the character, it makes no sense for the storyline up to this point.

Then there is the confusion that supersedes the plot: the timeline. It is nothing new for Medrano to lack a clear definition of her own narrative; linking The Circus with Loo Loo Land was one of the most egregious misunderstandings of her own story that generally derailed the escalation of the relationship between Stolas and Blitz and required the assassination plot to be unwritten. So this episode puts us back in that exact same position by having it be that somewhere between this episode’s flashback and the accident from Oops, FizzaRolli went through puberty, won the pageant, got prosthetics, went through rehab and instantaneously exploded in fame. It is a miserably scrambled mess of events that just necessitates the practice the writers obviously utilized to get to this point: Don’t think about it.

Fizz had to have won the Clown Pageant before he got his prosthetics because he has his prosthetics. It's clear they were designed and built by Asmodeus so he would have needed connections with a Sin before that. Fizz linking his romantic relationship to Ozzie with his business relationship with Mammon specifies how that connection was made. As such he needed to win the pageant BEFORE the accident, so regardless of Fizz entering the first ever pageant or a subsequent one, it doesn’t change the complications of the timeline.

Back to the story issues at hand, Asmodeus is very clear that he would prefer if FizzaRolli would not attend the Clown Pageant that year. The fact that he has Fizz’s foundation in hand to give insinuates that Ozzie was actively hiding the makeup from his partner to keep him from going in the first place. Regardless of how much one would prefer to read character into these actions, it makes it very clear that Ozzie is not impressed by Fizz’s participation and he tries everything imaginable to talk the jester out of it, just short of forcibly locking him in their home. FizzaRolli makes the claim in this scene that being in the pageant is for himself and not Ozzie’s opinion of him, only for that to not be the case come the emotional turn of the narrative. When the reason Fizz breaks away from Mammon isn’t because he has any confidence in himself, but because Ozzie would love him anyway contradicts the entire setup. It additionally weakens Fizz’s resolve and the meaning behind his rejection of Mammon by making it not at all about him and all about the relationship. It isn’t FizzaRolli overcoming a codependency, but merely reassigning the target of it from Mammon to Asmodeus. Which, in terms of the beginning, is his brokenness. He never fixes that metaphors, just that it is okay now which is never the case with codependency.

Then there is the pointless addition of Blitz’s to the story. Unlike the Theft subplot in The Circus where it felt like some kind of repercussion should have come from the event due to its inciting nature, Blitz’s presence in this episode is purely unnecessary. Which falls back into how Medrano and Spindlehorse fail to optimize time and animation (and thus funds) in the show.

There was absolutely a way to have this episode work with only the most minor of changes that would have overwhelmingly shifted the plot and made all these elements cohesive. This is why I state this is one of the worst episodes, but that this is probably the best Helluva Boss will ever be able to achieve moving forward. It isn’t a means of insulting Medrano and the team by calling this episode incompetent, it is merely stating a fact. The issue with this episode is that it is incompetent and this is why:

As previously stated, the episode needed to keep a clear focus on the nature of Fizzarolli’s self esteem issues. They put their money on the wrong horse in practice, but just a slight contextual shift would have rectified those problems. Still have the episode play out generally the same

I personally do not like how one dimensional the antagonists are in this episode. The clown competitors deserve to have some dignity and be defined as something other than “bitch”. I am pained every time a female character in this show gets boiled down to that one word. There is a major difference between a character being “bitchy” and a character just being a “bitch”. It's demeaning to women, makes them one dimensional, devalues feminine competitiveness and ambition to being a personality flaw. It is agonizing to witness it happening over and over again.

Have Fizzarolli become progressively overwhelmed by his need to be the best and seeing younger and fresh new talent threatening his status. Not necessarily because Mammon or Ozzie would replace him, but because of his fear of losing value in himself due to equating it with his professional popularity. Have Blitz be a voice of concern about FizzaRolli’s declining mental health. Play into that relationship they started building in Oops by having Blitz say something along the lines of “This isn’t you.” Go back to the line in Oops about how he demands to know if the sex thing is all Fizz is about anymore and show that, actually, no, it isn’t.

Stepping back a bit, it feels highly inappropriate to include a child in this episode when placed in context with the show. Especially a disabled child where this merely feels like a manipulation ploy by the creators that shocks the moment out of being a true emotional connection.

For one, the pageant and Fizzarolli’s performance prior to this scene has been rather sexual, additionally the sexualization of the entire performance starts with the designs for the girls in the competition and merely becomes more overt from there. It is obvious this isn’t a show for a child as young as the one depicted, maybe a teenager, but not a child. The argument can be made that it is Hell and whatever, the show’s sense of values oscillate based on what reaction the creators are seeking to elicit from the audience. The choice of having the character be deaf is simply the cherry on top of what the purpose of this character was: Brownie points. This entire sequence is solely to garner praise for representation and animation instead of playing any narrative role or being impactful to the characters. It isn't even a deep representation, but one that disappears once they feel they did enough to earn that adulation, utilizing a real disability real people live with as a means of creating attention and praise for themselves.

Instead, this scene should have focused on the poor kid who was thrown out. It could have been a group of kids who shouldn’t be there in the first place due to their age and lack of money, allowing the deaf child to remain in the story and have a more meaningful impact. Start the scene with FizzaRolli being obviously uncomfortable with his older fans and how this life he has been working to achieve and maintain actually isn’t what he wants. Having this scene after a moment where Blitzo tells Fizz, “You haven’t changed that much. I know you, and this isn’t you.” could really show how stressful Fizz’s job is because he doesn’t belong there.

Use the kids being tossed out or shooed away as the inciting factor for why Fizz gains his confidence.

The biggest problem with the deaf child scene is that the interaction lacks any depth. FizzaRolli doesn’t break through his own insecurities by engaging with the child, instead it is cut short and the scene is immediately forgotten with the comedic villain from the beginning interrupting the moment and the kid proceeds to vanish, no longer useful to the creators.

This should have been the moment when FizzaRolli had his emotional turn.

Remove the Ozzie scene in the back room entirely and have Fizz engage with the kids. Ask them their names and what their interests are. Treat them like people and not just props. Having Fizz be poor growing up himself, have them connect on that. Growing up in an adult world with nothing and being unwanted unless they are useful for some greedy or selfish adult. Have Fizz rekindle his genuine love for performing through the kids and wanting to give them the best performance, because he sees how he inspires them. Added with the (admittedly inconsistent) world building that Imps are socially regarded very lowly, it brings power to Fizz’s position and resolve to be the performer who would have inspired himself when he was a kid.

Following that scene, have Fizzarolli cut the Meet and Greet short and run back to his dressing room where Blitz is and have Fizz ask Blitz to perform with him like when they were younger, incorporating Blitz’s presence in the story more fully and allowing their relationship to progress from the previous episode. This allows Fizz’s song to feel empowering because it is coming from him and inside himself, not because his buff boyfriend is just behind the curtain to protect him. It would legitimately be Fizz risking something in the process of rediscovering himself and reclaiming his identity as well as reconcile Fizz’s past with his present to merge a new future.

This isn't even touching on the super public reveal of the one secret Ozzie and Fizz are supposed to be living under that has been proven not to matter seeing as how many demon nobility are dating the "lowest" of commoners in this universe. Additionally, people have already known about the Ozzie and Fizz relationship based on the newspaper, so, again, having the resolution being "true love" and the reason everything is okay at the end being about a romantic relationship just further reaffirms the implied belief that the creators think codependency is romance and relationships can replace a personality.

The point being that these changes don’t fundamentally alter anything from the episode while creating a stronger character for FizzaRolli and progressing the larger story. It would have also been a moment for Blitz to grow as well and set up the starting point of a turn for his character too. It could have rehabilitated the worst parts of Seeing Stars and additionally worked on Blitz’s self esteem issues vicariously, showing how bettering yourself can also improve those around you. It also wouldn't have taken much to make these changes in the writing and editing process because these problems are so glaringly obvious and simply required a couple more eyes on the script to make it something good.

So the only reason it failed to identify any of these weaknesses can only be chalked up to pure incompetence. And excuse me if I guild the lily for a moment, but if these slight changes were missed for how they would have benefitted the characters and elevated the story, then there is no reason to believe or hope the writing will ever get better.

Helluva Boss has peaked.

Chopper: guys wot happend in here!? The kitchen is a wreck!

Text Optimisations!

Nothing exciting! Just writing a to-do list... Pretty boring, feel free to skip!

Text is currently drawn character-by-character, each frame. So multiple paragraphs of text can be surprisingly expensive... We can fix this in a couple ways.

Only draw text that is confirmed visible on screen.

If all of the text in an instance is stationary... We can basically take a screenshot of how it looks completely drawn, and use that instead of typing out each character one at a time again.

Let's talk about point 2 using more technical language.

We'll check if a block of text is unmoving (no shaking or wiggley text), if it is... Then we create a surface and draw all the text to that once. All the text belonging to this block, that is.

Then, we keep the surface in a variable and whenever the text attempts to draw it just uses the surface image instead.

Some people might try saving the surface as a sprite. I don't think that's a bad idea. But as far as I understand, sprites use up more memory than a surface alone.

The downsides to using surfaces are that they are 'volatile'. Which means under certain circumstances they can be suddenly erased. But I consider this a good thing... One of these cases is when you alt+tab away to a different window. The surface will automatically clear and free up some memory, if you're not looking at the game window there wont be text. Simple enough!

At worst, there'll be a minor lag-spike when alt+tabbing back to the game window. Orrrrr... We have a terrible memory leak. That's definitely possible but only if I mess up.

Staying vigilant, then!

got to play splatoon 3 recently on my friend's switch, first time playing any splatoon game. damn is this game polished to fuck?? like it's crazy how they cooked up this whole aesthetic of like, post-apoc graffiti cephalopds almost fully formed when splatoon 1 came out. i love their little floppy hands gesture.

so i have only played a bit - first couple islands of single player and enough multi to get to level 4. but already it's a really fun shooter, easy to understand but with a good amount of depth. the way the map painting mechanic interacts with mobility and stealth is great.

tech art-wise, i am pretty sure I can see how they're doing the map painting mechanic visually, it's got a signed distance field kinda smell, weapons blit a mask texture onto that dynamic paint map - simple and it works so well, and then they add a bit of extra style by having the ink drip down vertical surfaces. it's very seamless across objects so i wonder how the texture is mapped? maybe it's voxels! or maybe they create a special inkable surface mesh for the whole level with its own UVs?

the motion controls took a little getting used to but they are quite effective for solving the controller aiming problem. the device I'm on has a very drifty left stick, which made some precision movement a bit hard, but mostly not an issue. the way you move between kid and squid to go up vertical surfaces is very intuitive to pick up, you get a great rhythm of ink and swim.

also! the way the ink substitutes for blood so you can have a really messy splattery battle without it being 'gory'. like. it's simply satisfying when things are wet. ingenious.

blitzbee but put them in blender with fluff;

they could do a movie or game marathon, they do it whenever they can

or arts and crafts or something alike, blitz can sculpt and bee can wire things together

they can just snuggle and nap together

but all in all, I wanna know your head canons for this crack ship :3

It's not crack ship. it's pure love. <3

They defo love cuddling. Blit is touch-starved and Bee is more than happy to give hugs and snuggles. He loves being wrapped up in those big warm arms and listen to Blitzwing's Spark.

Bee will sing for Blitz and Blitz will also try to sing for Bee, his voice is horrible but Bee likes the gesture. They do duets sometimes.

Bee and Blitz defo went on a movie date, they snuck in at the back of the drive-in cinema and watched Godzilla. Bee couldn't figure out how to make the tv at their hideout work so he just brings his cybertronian laptop and plugs it to the screen so Blitz doesn't have trouble seeing the movies. As for games, they don't have a console in there. Blitzwing doesn't mind tho, he likes to watch his hummel play on his pocket console and cheer him on.

They really big on kisses and face-snuggles. It's really amusing for Bee cuz he will pepper Blitz's face with kissed and he'll act as if he'd just been given high-grade. Whenever Bee does that, of course there will be revenge- Blitz will scoop up Bee and pin him down on the cuddle spot and shower his whole frame with kisses and praise and snuggles.

Bee will give Blitz gifts he made or bought. Blitz will sculpt stuff for Bee as gifts- he doesn't really have access to anything so he's stuck to either servo-made figurines or the really cool rocks he found while digging for resources to sculpt from; it's the kind with pretty patterns in them. Sometimes Blitz will take the pretty rocks and sculpt them into a tiny figurine to make it even more special.

They defo tried to make a statue together at one point, the small kind. Bee made the tiny details from wires and scraps like flowers and a tiny tree while Blitz made a deer out of metal. The thing stands in their hideout in the honorary spot near a window.

The activities- it depents where they are really; if they're by the river they will go have a water fight, they can go flying and watch a sunset in the clouds, they can go on the movie date or fly somewhere far away and have a picnic.

I love imagining them together just laying in their cuddle spot, huddled together and whispering sweet things to one another while the late afternoon sun shines on them. X3
