    Oh.

    Well that explains why I feel like they are killing me inside.

    They are literally the cockroaches of candy.

    Now knowing that this epitome of plebeian trash is actually worthless culturally and nutritionally I can go on a life-long quest to talk mad shit about Tootsie Rolls and never consume one again.

    Like Hussie does with Faygo.

    I may not end up dropping this English class, but I probably will. In the event I do, I might make a Javascript game because I have nothing better to do.
    So... any suggestions? I know my shit well enough to probably make a game as complicated as any Flash, etc. game you can think of (though not as visually-appealing as I can't draw for shit), but the more complex it is, the longer it will take and the more likely I will lose interest partway through and give up.
    I tend to spend way longer writing code than I probably should, but the result of that is very few bugs. In fact, I can't find any in this (at least in Chrome, which is what it was made for, though I later fixed it so it would work in Firefox), which is probably the best thing I've ever made in terms of working as intended. However, that took me about a week of work, stopping only for food, sleep, and occasional breaks.

    The game developer in it's natural habitat, so graceful.

    Also, I could throw you a couple ideas. One game I've wanted to make for a while is one that's just a never ending boss battle that gets faster and more dangerous as time goes on, first the boss would start off with just two basic attacks but as time progressed it'd unlock more and more deadly weapons that you were then at the mercy of.

    Your goal? Get the high score, duh!

    I smell possible heresy. But as we cannot find it; the only option is to damn this world to Exterminatus.

    Is there something I'm missing here?
    Is he jokingly saying that because it says "Let Go" there, that is frozen and because it looks shitty, etc etc?

    My favorite FPS to date. DooM is great but sci-fi shooters are just so common, Medieval Fantasy is awesome and this game had a really good aesthetic. From the sparkly items to the Elizabethan Architecture, it just had a very drawing effect to it.

    Also the Ethereal Crossbow was fuckin' kickass. Who says Elves can't have awesome weapons?

    But which is better: Heretic or Hexen?

    For me, I think Heretic has far better pacing than Hexen, though I liked Hexen II since it was metroidvanian in the way levels were set up. (Also you could launch sheep from Catapults what more do you want?)

    The original Hexen wasn't very good, and for most of the game it wasn't about finding secrets or killing monsters, it was finding the exit before heaven forbid you run out of enemies to kill.

    It's pacing was just, really bad. It did do some cool things though, it was the First notable FPS with a Class system, to start off, and it's possible Team Fortress may not exist today had Hexen not popularized the idea of Classes in First Person Shooters.

    I also think it was stronger in the weapons department. If you asked me to state my favorite weapon from Heretic it'd be Ethereal Crossbow, no second thoughts. Hexen had a lot of aesthetic weapons and choosing a favorite would be difficult.

    Also back to Heretic, Iron Liches are fucking terrifying for an 8 year old. (Which is when I first played it.)

    I've just come under the realization that I was playing First Person Shooters while Frank Biscuit, Grav and Nightclaw were still in diapers.

    I feel really old now.

    Quake 2 is p/good. Played it a bunch when I was around 9.

    That's right, 1997, you probably weren't even born yet.
