So this popped across me feed a short while ago... Jumplight Odyssey. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1893820/Jumplight_Odyssey/ It looks very much in the style of Evil Genius crossed Starblazers/Space Battleship Yamato. I've not played the more recent Evil Genius 2, but lost many hours with the ...

I like the new backgrounds. The characters feel a more natural part of the world now. Is it an effect or did you draw the backgrounds by hand? They're a combination of 3D elements and hand-painting. Did violent decompression kill those two umaki? If so is their exoskeleton that durable? Both decomp...

AI learning and application isn't going away, and its only going to get more efficient and wide spread with time. I personally like that AI art is becoming a thing, but don't like that its going it impact the traditional artists themselves who make a living off commission work. AI won't replace a tr...

Sorry to hear you poorly. I'm old enough to remember a thing where I live called pox parties, something parents were encouraged to do during the 70's and 80's. Children with chicken pox or a similar "mild" illness were put together to share it around and build up immunities to it. Immunisation/vacci...

Beam weapons seem to be the favoured thing for the online player base, and they're right up to a point. But I was always a fan of capital missiles enmass, especially when the common strategy was to build energy weapon ships and "forget" to have jammers on hand to counter the missiles. The mere fact ...

There is a little known turn based strategy game called Stars! Its very basic on user interface as came out in the mid 90's, and poetically looks like a glorified windows 3.1 spread sheet application from that era. Its basically a empire build game much akin to Master of Orion. There is a race type ...

Keklas you could always take a look at things like Starfinder (Pathfinder) or whatever gurps is currently doing with their space settings. Wizards of the Coast also recently renewed the Spelljammer license about 12-18 months ago, so there might be something coming on the D&D front in that regard in ...

I like that fireblade's psiamp jack is visible behind her ear, nice little touch there.

To add to the camera topic... insanely high speed camera capturing a pulse of light with a mirror included. And this was 2010-2011.

Theres only two practical reasons to have "mecha suits". One as a quite literal suit of armour worn by basic infantry. The second and possibly less viable is a "tall" tank for height advantage only. And unless there is some sudden insane tech development that allows such a vehicle to survive getting...

Stone Honest Freeman Steadfast

Or if you prefer poetic license, Immovable stone of truth and freedom.

I think sometime in 2004 when the comic actually went up, though my memory is a little hazy. I do recall seeing the thread on relic news forums and sierra shortly after.

Piss artist... is this what i think it is or a pure coincidence?

I believe in a topic here or on the old outsider forums it was mentioned that humans have gene replacement therapy that has allowed people from the twentieth century to possibly still be alive in outsiders era. Though I doubt most could afford the treatments going that far back.

So I was bored... "just one more turn"

As a curiosity did you ever take a look at Age of Wonders 3, Arioch?

Its basically a fancy tablet pc with strong detection to allow you to draw on paper on top of the tablet. The ring probably helps tracking just like a typical wireless tablet pen. I wouldn't be surprised if the graphite in the pencil was also used as a conduction source to help with the tracking. Wa...

Welcome to the crew

I was going to pick up the early release until a friend "lost" his empire to a game bug (or the AI has an empire eating super weapon). Maybe I'll fall prey to wanting it again over the weekend, but for now I'll wait a bit longer for some updates to fix things. I still have a sour taste in my mouth a...
