things i noticed in my most recent jsab playthrough that u might not have:
- the square starts off broken at the beginning of the game ? like theyre in pieces and those pieces come together to form the player
- the corrupted flowers make piano noises when they first pop out of the water
- theres a part in sevcon where, when the circle in the middle is absorbing other circles, it kind of bounces to the beat every time a circle hits it! its hard to see if youre not paying attention (completely understandable)
- in subwoofer dubstep, the rain from the ceiling actually fills up the level with water (this might be common knowledge but i personally never noticed until now)
- the helicopter leaves a trail of rainbow particles when they fly :]
- in that one part where the square is on a conveyor belt running from buzzsaws, the piles of stuff being shredded are various trees and things from paradise, one of which is the bird cage from the lost chapter!
- the 3 birds from the lost chapter also appeared at the end of the game before the extra chapter was even released
- the pink boss guy has a machine in the factory with the sole purpose of pushing flowers over. this boss is like a middle school bully i love them
- THE BEGINNING OF TRY THIS IS TOTALLY A JAMES BOND REFERENCE AND I ONLY JUST NOW GOT IT. GOD
- i also like that the background in Try This has many elements from the factory in the overworld. ik its pretty obvious. i just think its neat
- i might make a separate post abt this but the boss is very clearly Bug Coded. and the changes to their appearance they go through throughout the game makes me think of metamorphosis. you understand
- like an evil butterfly
- in the lost chapter, theres what appears to be several fossils underground. this implications of this drives me nuts
#jsab#just shapes and beats#rambles#i had to share my notes with the world#i am very nit normal about this game#ive played it many many many times#did you know. yhis game has phenomenal level design#like every level is so enjoyable and fun imo#and things like. in close to me the level design forces you to stick close to the boss the whole time#stuff like that makes me giddy with joy#and clash is another rlly good one. i love it. i lov this game

The Evil Dead (1981)
"Why have you disturbed our sleep, awakened us from our ancient slumber? You will die! Like the others before you, one by one, we will take you."
#the evil dead#1981#horror imagery#eye horror#gore tw#sam raimi#bruce campbell#ellen sandweiss#betsy baker#richard demanincor#theresa tilly#tom sullivan#joseph loduca#rob tapert#ted raimi#american cinema#video nasty#evil deadology#horror film#thus spake the people. evil dead won my poll on which horror franchise to work through next‚ and somehow this was the one that I'd not seen#a single second of; the entire trilogy (and various follow ups) passed me by. i still felt like i was coming into this knowing it beat for#beat because of the inevitable cultural osmosis you get when a film is this influential and this popular; i knew the plot‚ i knew Ash‚ i#knew what to expect. what i didn't expect was quite how good this was. received wisdom had it that this was the rough first indie film that#was followed by better‚ more polished instalments but i have to say‚ taken on its own merits‚ this is a hell of an achievement#it's immediately apparent both that this isn't just another DIY splatter nasty made to cash in‚ and that right from the get go Raimi was a#highly creative and fiercely original talent. there's no reason‚ if making a cheapy gore film‚ for Raimi to be shooting from behind the#swinging pendulum of a grandfather clock‚ or to include genuinely sweet character moments like Ash and Linda playing a cute game of#avoiding glances whilst he gives her the pendant (and so wonderfully and so darkly inverted later‚ as her demonic form plays the same game#whilst he digs her grave). seriously messed up fx in places‚ very real sense of dread‚ absolutely phenomenal sound design#sometimes the classics are classics for a reason. an absolute masterclass in indie shock horror and a massively fun time

The soundtrack to this game is absolutely phenomenal btw
#*spoilers in tags lol*#the track that plays during the scenes where Vincent is chasing Rody around and trying to kill him is so good bc—#it genuinely made me feel on edge and agitated. like I almost felt the need to forward through the dialogue simply bc the music made me—#feel so rushed and stressed. and that’s so cool! it’s so cool that a piece of music tied to a storyline can make the viewer feel so strongly#I am very passionate about this if you couldn’t tell#music and video games are two of my favorite things ever#so the way the two can fit together interests me greatly. whenever I play games one of the first things I look towards is the soundtrack#and dead plate has a phenomenal ost! I kept thinking abt it as I played the game lol#also the tracks that play during the dream sequences are very unnerving which fits the theme perfectly#ahhh okay! if you read this far thanks for listening to my ramblings lol#dead plate

#part of me wants to go fishing around for y0 fic but number 1 i dont want to get spoiled for later games#and more importnatly number 2 i know just scrolling the archive is gonna piss me off because ive got a very specific vision#wrt how i want the characters and their relationships to be portrayed#and as a rule my vision of the world does NOT align with popular fanon vision of the world and ill have to spend several hours#digging through metric loads of complete shlock. To not find what i want to read. and mostly see a bunch of really bland#and actively ''I dont think u played the source material with ur eyes and ears open'' general nonsense#but whatever. TCH!#on the bright side u know that chatfics are almost definitely few and far in between#actually do you think theres high school aus. theyd probably be boring ones though that take themselves too seriously in the lame way#and also emotionally i dont think i could take the character assassination that a really phenomenal high school au requires#at least at the moment#but this is neither here nor there. KICKS ROCKS

u r all misunderstanding the canadian tennis curse it was not lifted when gaby and felix won mixed because it doesn’t apply to doubles only singles. or perhaps more accurately it doesn’t apply to gabriela specifically as she is the world #3 wta doubles player, whereas other canadians who play doubles typically end up flopping at some early stage. however, this doesn’t mean that gaby carried felix this week (unlike some teams where that sort of thing happened) because it was very much a team effort and felix is moderately good at doubles and pulled his weight
#cdn tennis scholar^^#altho tbf gaby and leylah did very much die an early and gruesome death in womens doubles this week lol#but that only goes to prove that felix was not carried at all#his serve and his forehand and his net game were phenomenal on the doubles court!#of course if he had played with anyone else they wouldn’tve gotten as far as they did but he very much did his part#tennis

Finally read the TAZ Suffering Game graphic novel last night and I gotta say… I’m a bit disappointed by it. Warning for some salt so if you don’t want to read that, then don’t.
I knew they were gonna have to cut some stuff, but they removed like. Half of the suffering from the arc titled THE SUFFERING GAME. Side characters like Lord Artemis Sterling, Rowan, Antonia, and Cam. The brutality of the Trust or Forsake game. Taako’s beauty (and although unknown to him, his identical-ness to Lup.) Merle’s battle axe proficiency. Magnus’s memories of GOVERNOR KALEN. Suffering Game was one of the arcs I was looking forward to the most since the beginning of the graphic novel, and they flubbed it so hard. Not enough suffering.
Reunion Tour was better, and picking up the pace of events didn’t change a ton. They changed what they told the bureau about Magnus’s “death,” meaning we didn’t get to see any of the mourning that came from that, but they handled it well, changing Carey’s mourning into determination to go and find him.
But the voidfish scene. The “those are the arms that held my wife” scene. Mannequin-Magnus’s final stand alongside the voidfish. The “don’t let them forget me” scene. Johann’s death. The fact that they changed this is just… inexplicable to me.
The graphic novel definitely hit the highs and added some new stuff that was definitely nice, like the Umbra Staff jumping into Barry’s arms. But to have so much cut from these arcs, especially since the adaptation has been so faithful so far, is really disappointing. It makes me nervous for how they’re going to put The Stolen Century and Story and Song into one book and wondering what parts of it they’re going to have to cut.
#taz gn#taz gn spoilers#some spoilers in tags too so watch out#taz#taz balance#taz balance spoilers#they’ve done a phenomenal job on the adaptation so far and to see them fumble suffering game just hurts#I really really hope I enjoy stolen century/story and song more but if they’re cramming both of those into a single book…. ouch#and I know that some of it is out of their control but still. as a fan I think I’m allowed to be disappointed#they cut magnus forgetting governor kalen. THEY CUT MAGNUS FORGETTING GOVERNOR KALEN.#not just forgetting but CHOOSING to forget because otherwise the others would have to take the penalty#and they cut taakos beauty sacrifice so we’re not getting that in his reunion with kravitz!#and while battle axe proficiency might not be considered as important by some imo its one of the hardest hitting scenes in suffering game#giving some very good merle backstory (and then ripping it away) and also the fact that it’s kind of the moment -#- that it really sinks in that this is THE SUFFERING GAME. because it was kind of a cop-out at first.#- ‘yeah I’ll sacrifice this proficiency that I never use.’ and then griffin seamlessly turns it into an absolutely heartbreaking scene.#I know that so much is gonna end up getting cut from stolen century and I am dreading it#anyway rant over

What about 3 and 9 for the music ask game?
You've managed to pick the two most difficult questions on that list somehow :D I'll do my best to answer
3. A song I’d choose to introduce someone to my favorite genre
so. I'm not really a genre listener nor do I have a favourite genre. I'm gonna pick hyper pop as my fav genre here purely because I don't feel like a lot of people listen to that in my circle (understandable, it's somewhat of an acquired taste). I would introduce people to that the same way I got into it and that is via Lil' Mariko's Where's My Juul. I've actually seen this circle tumblr and even if the music is not for everyone the video and the vibe is funny as hell
9. A song in a language you don’t speak
I'm taking speak as 'don't understand most of the words in the song' which limits this but uhh. Hatari's Tortímandi. Don't speak a word of Icelandic, yet at least. I've listened to this song on loop for 5h once while doing lab results calculations in excel. It's a very good song for that.
thank you for the ask!!
#ask game#ask mauki#ok so lil mariko's song could very much also be intro to bimbo core#it's a genre#geniunely love it actually bc ppl in that genre are just literally making whatever they want and it's very cool#this made me listen to hatari for the first time in a while and man#I wish I could see them live soon#the vibe these guys have on the gigs is phenomenal#also. I feel like these songs have sort of a similar vibe#that wasn't intentional lol#anyway thanks again navi for asking this this was super fun!

okay like what actually is undertale like
all I know is there’s like. hearts. skeletons and monsters. and like a flower. and it’s snowy (?? I think)
like what even is undertale I actually have no idea what it is 😭
this is a cruel cruel thing to ask someone who was just about to sleep (lighthearted)
SO! its one of those games thats best gone into blind, but its been out for over 8 years and i played it as a preteen and now im almost 20. i think i can talk frankly
undertale is an RPG where you play as a human who has fallen into an underground world of monsters. your goal is essentially to traverse the underground and come out the other end to go home. it's pretty linear
it got a lot of popularity because the music is banging. the characters are very charming. and it has a wild commentary on the relationship between the game and its player (you).
the story is very heartwarming/heartbreaking (up to you :)) and also full of stupid jokes and quirky shit. im currently replaying it because i love it and the story doesnt really get old
also just to shine a light on the little you do recognise:
hearts: thats you! your soul as it appears in battle (bullet hell turn-based combat)
skeletons and monsters: the skeletons in this game are unambiguously the fan favourite monsters. theyre just great. most people nowadays come into the game and will at least recognise sans undertale
a flower: your best friend that you meet right at the beginning of the game. one of my favourite characters hands down
snowy: one of the several portions of the underground is snowy fields and a village. thats where the skeletons live (nodding)
#ask#hope i cleared things up and also encouraged you to take a better look at it#i actually learned today my boyfriend has never played it#which does mean i am going to make him when im done with my replay#it is genuinely a phenomenal game that i do think any rpg/indie game fans should play wholly#o7#thanks for letting me info dump#undertale was definitely my first capital F fandom. very formative to me

thinking about that time in my co op playthrough with friends that they had stacked boxes in camp around gale’s tent so my halfling rogue could climb on top of them to talk to him
#i got into the game and was just like. y’all what the fuck#it was really funny tbh#they lost their shit during the act 2 romance scene#my character was just so tiny during it that they couldn’t take it seriously#anyway play the short races they’re fun#i miss hela she was a very broken build because halfling luck on a rogue is phenomenally game breaking

THEY USED THE LIVING TOMBSTONE SONG FOR THE CREDITS HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AUTOMATIC 5 STARS
#babbling#i just watched five nights at freddys and i LOVED it#dude when that song came out i listened to it… a lot#its a banger okay#i havent looked into the lore after like the second game#but it actually stayed pretty true to the lore i know from the first game#there were obvious liberties taken but im not mad at all#i actually fucking cried because im a loser baby who apparently cries at EVERYTHING now#but holy shit fnaf always made me feel so unsettled because those are CHILDREN#and so when i saw actual kids i just kinda had no chance of getting through the movie without waterworks#abby was absolutely phenomenal#i really appreciate camp and im so glad they didnt try to do a full gritty style and try to take it too seriously#so anyway yes full review is that it was very good#mattpatt deducted half a star but also added it back because of the shear dedication to the history of this series#and then the living tombstone just sent it into full masterpiece#thank you for coming to my ted talk#OH AND MATTHEW LILLARD#that set it automatically to 5 stars before all my other bs#i love that man and emma tammi is now my hero

hi how's your summer going? read any good books? had delicious ice cream? some craft project you're working on? have you sat round a campfire with friends? do you have any juicy gossip or a new celebrity you're obsessed with?
#i've read good books. the runners by olga tokarzcuk and the castle by kafka were phenomenal. now im rereading the witcher series so i can#eloquently point out to my brother everything i hate about the netflix show. even if they're not gonna follow the story to a tee they could#at least match the vibe. the atmosphere the philosophies presented. at the very! least! the traits in the characters and their relationship#that actually endears us to them but they had to be some stupid game of thrones meets marvel with every line a chewpid quip filled w as muc#cussing as possible whether it makes sense for the character or not#uhm sorry didn't mean to rant#i've also been knitting and am in fact not yet watching the og star trek as i'm rewatching the most memorable episodes of ds9 and writing#reviews for them in a little notebook. stuff i get up to with the time gained not being on tumblr
