Can Someone Please Get These Hoes Under Control I'm BUSY

“I wanna ask you…”

Heres my 8 page love letter to the otasune dialogue ever that made me crazy over this series, please enjoy!

Kaz running sprite, with his hair gloriously flowing in the wind.  I bet his souffle is on fire or something.  We’re in the thick of it and there hasn’t been any show-worthy progress for some time - fine-tuning gun animations, enemy sprites, other disjointed pieces.  But it’s all starting to come together.    Just in case you’re wondering what this is, we’re making a retroplatformer fangame called Peace Day!

One of the animated Kaz sprites for the retro Peace Walker fanfic game we’re making.

"The number of hours we have together is actually not so large. Please linger near the door uncomfortably instead of just leaving. Please forget your scarf in my life and come back later for it."

As an indie game dev with a project that is taking years to finish, this part of the game gave me a panic attack.

I have some really bad news about our MGS fangame, Peace Day.  It’s not happening.  Not anymore.  We put in 4 months of work into it, making the sprites and interactions and a physics engine.  Backgrounds and storyboards and all kinds of fun stuff.  But we were working under the misleading concept of fair use.  You guys have been awesome support on our project and some of the sweetest people we’ve ever talked to.  This whole game was meant to be a love letter to the MGS:PW fandom.  I’m devastated that we can’t make it work, and that we created a shitload of vaporware.  If anyone wants the sprites for their own personal (noncommercial) use, they’re welcome to them.    We were so dumb.  Even the most basic research would have turned up that despite the fair use clause being a real thing, you can still get sued - or at the very least, have your stuff DMCA’ed.  You can defend yourself in court, but the question is, do you have the cash for that kind of legal defense? Not all companies do this.  Sega and Valve have given people permission to make fangames, and so has the creator of Undertale.  But there’s something about fangames - not fan art - that makes companies like Konami and Nintendo go nuclear.  Even if you’re not making money off of them.  Even if you’re not using any in-game assets.  Even if you’re just representing their characters and bits of story.  They will sue you and then slap you with an NDA so you can’t ever talk about it.  Maybe Glowdust and I are taking the cowardly way out.  But I’m not about to spend another 3-6 months of my life creating something only to risk being sued, or to have my work buried in the ground forever.  We’ll be making an original game that uses all the lessons we’ve learned in the last few months instead. And I’m so, so sorry. :-( https://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/5pxldd/ultimate_as_promised_guide_to_legal_needs_and/ http://kotaku.com/5420240/how-to-make-a-fan-game-and-not-get-your-ass-sued http://www.wired.co.uk/article/investigation-are-fan-games-legal

Oh look what Eda recovered from the human world dump!

This is a scientist who discovered 10 new elements, appended the periodic table so that there could be space for the actinides, and created unique isotopes for radioactive medicine. He’s one of the most amazing chemists in history, marking up the periodic table with the glee of a schoolboy.

His 3rd son wrote a paper about his life, which is a vibrant read!

Plutonium: Did you know?

Though it seems like the obvious choice for plutonium’s symbol would be Pl, Seaborg chose Pu as a joke, and it passed into the periodic table unnoticed.

Having ADHD is so fun because sometimes youre looking for something that you use regularly and definitely put away in a smart and reasonable place and you have absolutely 0 hope of remembering where and finding it. And then other times ur like "hmm I need a some kind of small pointed object. I feel like i remember seeing a paperclip under the left couch cushion a month ago, i wonder if its still there" and it is
