this job has so far been extremely uneventful which also freaks me out because I'm like. What's the catch when is it going to start attacking me

I finally finished Frontiers and the final boss was underwhelming to say the least. But like, in a good way!

Do ppl not know what the implications of them actively co-signing for the national guard to come to a peaceful protest is? They aren’t going to be as “harmless” as the cops were and they were fucking aggressive as hell. You are actively campaigning for the death of these kids knowing or unknowing because they are protesting. Are they really disrupting you that much? They are not being are nearly disrespectful and disruptive as they could be they could’ve held up inside the school with their dean like Kent university back in the day but they decided to do this peacefully. So why were there snipers for sure at Ohio state but from what I’m hearing on multiple campuses?

How are you guys still arguing about "cozy gaming". It's 2024 and you're still beating that dead horse. Find another extremely loosely defined video game genre about which you can write masterbatory essays that I will not read

The year is 2030.

At the Cincinnati stop of her "world tour", Taylor Swift ends her set. As she walks off the stage, she leans into a nearby mic and says "oh by the way, I'm lesbian".

She's still milking a public relationship with a man named Chett Whitesman, so this is met with a combination of cheers and confusion. Immediately, the media mobilizes. They have to intercept her before she gets onto her private jet, and ambush her for an interview. Luckily, this has become much easier these days. Since the release of her 2027 album, "The Carbon Emissions of my Heart", T Swizzle has performed a ritual sacrifice of an endangered species on live camera every time she boards her jet, a #girlboss way of saying that her emotional pain can only be healed by the tortured screams of drowning polar bears.

(Since this practice started, a devoted faction of Swifties have started a carbon negative algae farming commune, with the express intent of negating taytay sweezie's contributions to climate change. Apparently "her tortured soul deserves to pollute without guilt". They haven't even come close to their goals.)

Taytor Twift is intercepted after this ritual, as she's walking up the steps of her plane. When asked what the lesbian statement was about, she nonchalantly says "oh, I thought it was clear that was a joke. Anyways, G T G!" , before biting into the still beating heart of an emperor penguin.

During her flight, discourse on the newly renamed twitter-X-ElonIsExtremelyVirile Corp goes nuclear like it never has been before.

There's a camp of swifties thoroughly convinced that her relationship with Chett is all a beard so that she can still keep touring in the New Christian Republic of Florida, and the interview at the plane was deepfaked.

A different camp of Swifties feels insulted and betrayed that she would be anything less than a paragon of allyship. To them, this is the worst slight the queer community has ever experienced.

A third camp of Swifties insists that she *is* dating Chett, and is also a lesbian. They get insulted that anyone would police Taylor's labels. Comparisons to the Boulder, Colorado shooter are made.

A group of non Swifties tries to point out that everyone is fucking insane and that 'ole taytay regularly tear gases pride rallies to make way for her promenade to stadium venues, and who the fuck cares about this shit and point out that what a billionaire celebrity does for five minutes of PR is not worth your attention or discourse, nor does it warrant harassing other people for the labels *they* use, and isn't it really fucked up that Taylor is making a joke of how people describe their identities? They are promptly doxxed, harassed, and banned.

Bi lesbian discourse is off the charts. Nothing Taylor said has anything to do with it, but it happens anyways.

A lone transsexual who actually goes outside once in a while tweets "hey guys isn't it kinda fucked up that 2.4 billion people have been displaced by mega storms this year that her jet contributes to and is also specifically designed to fly over" and is promptly doxxed and harassed off the platform.

After an exhausting 9 minute plane ride, Tailing Swiffer lands in Columbus for the next performance of her world tour. She unveils a new single that contains the line "ride my horse after dumping him, stepping up onto my SAD dle".

All is forgotten. All is quiet. The Swifties continue as usual, moving on to the next discourse about these lyrics.

Basic Pascal version 1.16 TRIA – Release Day! R-Day!

Congratulations! Little positive funny moment! Second plan about to programming new games with Basic is done. Plan has a name TRIA! And this is after the title of the first game in this plan. Total - 4 new games.

09 September 2024 year it was released version 1.16 pack Basic Pascal. Just, think about it – it is 09 09 2024. Such, interesting number combination. And, codeword for this version – TRIA. In result, we have Basic Pascal version 1.16 TRIA. Sounds cool!

In this new version whole 4 new games. They are Tria, Space KOVSH, Voidtriks, Planet UFO – at the planet of the UFO. And, by word, three games – they are, something like, black and white. Two colors. And, last one – in 4 colors. Just, like, it is computer system MS DOS CGA. And, one more point of interest – two games – they are, something like, in a wide screen format. In, such, a rectangle screen.

And, one more, game itself with name Voidtriks – it is a base for another games. Like engine or template of a game.

All of these new developments are written with programming language QB64. As always. It is modern dialect of language Basic.

First plan, was Penguin – it is version 1.15. And second plan – it is TRIA, version already 1.16. So, this way, by plans. I do programming of my games with Basic.

In, a short, about a new little games.

TRIA

First game. By name of this game – it is a name for the plan of development. And version of this pack. It is simple space shooter. It is made with widescreen. It is unusual. And it has a pseudo three-dimensional style. You are flying in space. And, shoot with enemy space ships.

When, I do programming for this game - I watched Star Wars Episode 6. So, imagine for yourself, that you are amongst the space battle. For every enemy type - there is unique weapon type. With a right selection, you will destroy enemy with one shot.

Or, with three shots, in other case. Little game has a text with story. About a dark lord and a princess from stars. One more, by the way, part of theme, it is after song by Cars and Brides- Venus to Mars. Venus to mars, song. Some science fiction, shooter. Space, space ships. Lasers. And, everything like that. Enemies here – different space ships. Big and small. Faster and slower.

Tip. Look at what type of weapon is shooting your enemy. And shoot to him the same type of weapon. This case, you will destroy enemy with 1 shot.

Space KOVSH

 This game, it is something like, it was taken as a base – TRIA. But, with absolute another theme. There – it was a space battles, and here - it is a space station. And, you are with your space tractor, collect a science data. Attracting a space data - it is main theme for a game. I can say, this game is opposite. Here it is, also, a science fiction, and space too. But, you are an engineer with a space tractor, you work in space. You have a dream job – you with a special beam - do attraction of data. Later, maybe, someone will learn them.

Beam, ladle, that something like, it is doing this beam. And, you are with a space tractor. I create this with imagination.

It is not a hard game. With space bar you launch your beam. And, it is generating for some time. It make a focus on object. Science data - it is little squares. At the top of the screen. And, you need to aim good to attract them with your beam. Around you, asteroids are flying.  And, you need to avoid them. According the moment, that they do not to hit your beam.

Game is about a happy engineer in space with a space tractor.

Voidtriks

Remarkable game. With several reasons. I dream for a long time about to make this game. And this is about UFO sausages, you with a space ship fly in space and shoot with UFO sausages. It is simple space shooter. By the idea, it is a dream game. I made everything - just like I planned it to be.

And, one more, feature – it is a template of a typical little game with programming language QB64, which I will use for a new games. To be concentrated at the games. And stylizations. It is, something, like my engine.

This game is with 320 with 240 resolution. Standard space shooter. Enemies – UFO sausages. 1 type of weapon. And several levels. Background - it is stars. And, all game episodes – they are different with type of background. Speed of background move.

It, also, has a joke story. About flying here and there UFO sausages. By idea - it is typical shooter.

Fly, shoot, gain score. Space, science fiction. Retro.

UFO sausages are shooting with zigzags or something like letter Z. And they can be several types of UFO sausages. Game is about UFO sausage too. Most interesting theme. It is full of its own puzzles. And, in space, even more of that. There are lots of flying sausages in space.

Planet UFO - at the planet of the UFO

Game, in compare with others – colorful. It uses pallet with 4 colors. As a system MS DOS CGA.

Ambient theme, science fiction and UFO sausage.

Ambient theme – it is, because of, game is not fast going. You are flying with UFO sausage. Big and round thing. You can see only front side. And, it is like a pseudo three dimensional. You are flying and moving left and right. And, you are flying across the planet. It is very unusual. It has a magnetic fields and radio waves. And objects are generating. You need to avoid them – little squares, circles, and rectangles.

You are just flying. Game is about flight, everything around you – under you – it is flashing. It is like chess field – everything, that is under you. It is a storm is going, magnetic storms and radio waves.

I, for myself, I like a lot a theme of UFO sausages. And, this is a science fiction. I create with imagination a lot of text. For descriptions of the regions. Whole 42 regions are here. You are just flying a certain distance. And, it has its own text description. So, here you can see most amazing places of this planet – where lives these UFO sausages. And, this is a flight UFO sausage across radio waves and magnetic storm.

You have 3 lives and avoid with wheel rotation to the left and to the right – objects – which are generating by radio waves or magnetic storm. Such a strange and unusual planet. At this planet everything- it is not like here. Funny game, by its own way. Ambient -it is, also, because of, some of flight are rather long.

What and how

So, this is a new replenishment to the pack. With these games. Ahead - it is, already, I am doing a new plan. New little games are, already, is in making process. So, it will be interesting, if in some next version – it will be a whole two plans, for example. And not by one as now. And, it is development with Basic, now. But, in title of the pack it is Basic and Pascal words. I need to train my knowledge with Pascal. And to do something too! And, try different types of Basic. There are several of them. So, in main, next games are, already, in development! And, right now, with Basic.

So how it goes a new version

It is happening not at once. First, I program a new game. And write about development state. When game is ready – and, I go to program next one. And, this way, according a plan. I upload nothing. When it is, already, some number of games are ready. They are, already, programmed. Then, I say stop. And start to prepare them to be published. At my website I do a game page with game, for example. And alter - upload new games to a new version of pack Basic Pascal.

For example,  in version 1.15 – it were a three new games. I program them, one by one, with about making a notes. And, later, decorate everything. And, later, upload as version 1.14 of Basic Pascal pack.

And, this is now, version 1.16, it is, already, in release. So, here, already, it is a 4 new little games. And, this is a time to release! Release time!

Have an excellent Basic day! Have your Basic day! Live long and prosper! As Spok advice.
