ClubFloyd Transcript: New New Year's Speed(s)by Rick Dague, Sarah Morayati, and Marius MüllerAs played on ifMUD on December 28, 2008 The idea behind ClubFloyd is that each week at a pre-arranged time, a group of people meet online to cooperatively play a game of interactive fiction. Below is a transcript of three games written for the New New Year's Speed, by Rick Dague, Sarah Morayati, and Marius Müller, respectively.These games were written based on the following premise: Hi! Last year, we had a Speed IF with New Year themed games written especially for the purpose of being played on Clubfloyd. We'd like to do that again. [...] the rules are as follows: None, but a New Year, or maybe even just a "new beginning" theme would be cool.You can learn more about these games, including how to download them, by visiting the ifWiki. If you'd like to skip to a particular game in the transcript, you can click on the individual title: |
Jacqueline arrives, full of neither funk nor fun. | ||||
Lucea arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | ||||
Jacqueline says, "Hi, Lucea." | ||||
Jacqueline hollers, "Five minutes to ClubFloydTime." | ||||
Taleslinger arrives, full of fun and funk. | ||||
Rob arrives, full of fun, but no funk. | ||||
Nitku arrives, full of fun, but no funk. | ||||
DavidW arrives, full of fun, but no funk. | ||||
DavidW says, "Coffee made, sandwiches eaten." | ||||
Firion arrives, full of neither funk nor fun. | ||||
Jacqueline says (to David), "Wow. Breakfast both made AND consumed by CF time. Well done." | ||||
DavidW says, "Lunch, I suppose it was. I didn't have breakfast." | ||||
Taleslinger is still full of cookies. | ||||
Jacqueline says, "Okay, we'll start here in a second. Please move all conversation to the #ClubFloyd channel." | Jacqueline asks, "I guess we'll just play 'em in alphabetical order by file name. That okay?" | |||
DavidW says, "Fine by me." | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "load escapist" | ||||

A door is west, and you can go east. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Nice, traditional IF opening." | |||
inky arrives, full of fun and funk. | Taleslinger says, "Sure." | |||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x me" | ||||
Floyd | As good-looking as ever. Floyd | Floyd | > | Firion says, "Heh" | |||

Nitku says (to Floyd), "x shirt" | ||||
Floyd | You see nothing special about the brown shirt. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x bottle" | ||||
Floyd | The label on the empty bottle says VODKA. I guess this is why you wake Floyd | up in strange places not knowing how to escape them. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Firion says (to floyd), "x door" | ||||
Floyd | You see nothing special about the front door. Floyd | Floyd | > | Taleslinger says, "This was trikiw, by the way." | |||

Firion says, "It is empty after all." | ||||
Firion says (to floyd), "east" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Laboratory Floyd | Exits are west, east and north. Floyd | Floyd | You can see a wire cage (closed) (in which is a small sheep) here. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "cage" | ||||
Floyd | That's not a verb I recognise. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x cage" | ||||
Floyd | In the wire cage is a small sheep. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lucea says (to floyd), "x sheep" | ||||

Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "open cage" | ||||
Floyd | You open the wire cage. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lucea says (to floyd), "x paper" | ||||

Floyd | He's plainly inedible. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "You don't even know what the experiment is." | |||
Firion slaps Nitku. | ||||
Lucea says (to floyd), "kill sheep" | ||||
Floyd | Violence isn't the answer to this one. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says (to David), "Point. It might be 'happiness-inducing esperiments.'" | |||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "pet sheeo" | ||||
Floyd | That's not a verb I recognise. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "pet sheep" | ||||
Floyd | That's not a verb I recognise. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Nitku says (to Floyd), "ask sheep about experiments" | ||||
Floyd | There is no reply. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "milk sheep" | |||
Lucea says (to floyd), "get paper" | ||||
Floyd | That seems to be a part of the small sheep. | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "milk sheep" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | > Floyd | That's not a verb I recognise. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline asks, "East?" | |||
DavidW says, "sure" | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "e" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Outside Laboratory Floyd | You can go west, and a door is east. Floyd | Floyd | A hungry dog noses around the room. Floyd | Floyd | A muddy puddle has formed on the ground. Floyd | Floyd | You can also see a snacks bag (empty) here. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "paddle muddly puddle with poodle" | ||||
Floyd | That's not a verb I recognise. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "x bag" | ||||
Floyd | The snacks bag is a discarded potato chip container. You notice that Floyd | "LOT 3366" is printed at the bottom. Floyd | Floyd | > | Nitku says, "Hooray forlornly" | |||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "take bag" | ||||
Floyd | Taken. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Nitku says (to Floyd), "give sheep to dog" | ||||

Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "take dog" | ||||
Floyd | I don't suppose the hungry dog would care for that. Floyd | Floyd | > | Nitku says, "I thought they could be friends." | |||
Firion has just given Nitku a demerit for animal cruelty. | ||||
Lucea says (to floyd), "put sheep in bag" | ||||
Floyd | You put the small sheep into the snacks bag. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "throw bottle at dog" | ||||
Floyd | You lack the nerve when it comes to the crucial moment. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says (to Lucea), "ha" | |||
Jacqueline says (to Firion), "I think he needs two." | ||||
Firion adds a second one. | ||||
Lucea says, "Maybe now the dog won't eat it" | ||||
Jacqueline says, "Good deal." | ||||
Taleslinger says, "Those scandanavian often seem...cold." | ||||
DavidW asks, "Sheep chips?" | ||||
Jacqueline says, "I have always wanted a small sheep in a snack bag." | ||||
Nitku exclaims, "But the sheep is evil! Evil I tell you!" | ||||
Nitku says, "And tasty." | ||||
Taleslinger asks, "Maybe more exploring, less cruelty?" | ||||
DavidW asks, "we can proceed east, maybe?" | ||||
DavidW asks, "or is hungry dog a blockade?" | ||||
Lucea says (to floyd), "e" | ||||
Floyd | You can't, since the old door is in the way. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lucea says (to floyd), "open door" | ||||
Floyd | It seems to be locked. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Firion says (to floyd), "kick door" | ||||
Floyd | That's not a verb I recognise. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Firion says (to floyd), "damn" | ||||
Floyd | Real adventurers do not use such language. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lucea says (to floyd), "l" | ||||
Floyd | Outside Laboratory Floyd | You can go west, and a door is east. Floyd | Floyd | A hungry dog noses around the room. Floyd | Floyd | A muddy puddle has formed on the ground. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Floyd | Floyd | Front Room Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "We can go north from Lab." | |||
Lucea says (to floyd), "verbose" | ||||
Floyd | The Escapist is now in its "verbose" mode, which always gives long Floyd | descriptions of locations (even if you've been there before). Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says (to Lucea), "Down that path of thought lies madness." | |||
Lucea says (to floyd), "l" | ||||
Floyd | Front Room Floyd | The chief feature of this area is that you don't recognize it and have Floyd | no idea where you are. A door is west, and you can go east. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Firion says (to floyd), "w" | ||||
Floyd | You can't, since the front door is in the way. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Firion says (to floyd), "open door" | ||||
Floyd | It seems to be locked. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Although I did once write a speed IF where a marmot swallowed a key and you had to get it back." | |||
Jacqueline says, "heh heh" | ||||
Firion asks, "What's a marmot?" | ||||
DavidW says, "A thing" | ||||
Taleslinger thinks of Saw and shudders. | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Firion), "It's kinda like a groundhog." | ||||
Firion says, "As long as it's not a snake." | ||||
Jacqueline says (to DavidW), "Yay!" | ||||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "l" | ||||
Floyd | Front Room Floyd | The chief feature of this area is that you don't recognize it and have Floyd | no idea where you are. A door is west, and you can go east. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "take leash" | ||||
Floyd | Taken. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "wear leash" | ||||
Floyd | You can't wear that! Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
trikiw materializes. | Lucea says, "aw, but there's always something behind the painting" | |||
trikiw says, "hey" | Jacqueline says (to Taleslinger), "Rowr" | |||
Lucea says (to floyd), "x leash" | ||||
Floyd | The leather leash is about five feet long and can be tied to animals. Floyd | Floyd | > | Taleslinger says, "What, as long as all involved consent..." | |||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "untie string" | ||||

DavidW says (to Floyd), "look behind painting" | ||||
Floyd | I only understood you as far as wanting to look. Floyd | Floyd | > | inky says, ""Micheldoofusgelo" is funny" | |||
Firion says (to floyd), "cut string" | ||||
Floyd | Cutting that up would achieve little. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Floyd | I only understood you as far as wanting to cut the nylon string. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "cut string" | ||||
Floyd | The expensive painting drops to the floor as you cut through the Floyd | string. You find something! Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Huh. >BULLSHIT is not defaultly recognized by Inform as bad language." | |||
DavidW says, "We've seen three four-digit numbers so far." | ||||
Jacqueline submits a bug report. | ||||
Lucea says, "This is a game with sheep in it." | ||||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "l" | ||||
Floyd | Office Floyd | You can go south. Floyd | Floyd | A formidable safe with a four-digit display built into the wall. Floyd | Floyd | You can also see an expensive painting here. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lucea asks, "It may include actual bullshit. Who knows?" | |||
Firion asks (of Jacqueline), "You're not gonna penalize me for my language, though, are you?" | ||||
(from Taleslinger) Jacqueline says, "Fuck no!" | ||||
Nitku says (to Floyd), "i" | ||||

DavidW asks, "er, what did we cut the string with?" | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "x safe" | ||||
Floyd | You can't see inside, since the formidable safe is closed. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says (to DW), "Magic." | |||

Jacqueline says, "The sheep." | ||||
Firion asks, "The safe?" | ||||

Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "fly" | ||||
Floyd | You lift your wings and, with painstaking effort, flap into the air. Floyd | You're horribly out of practice, though, and without any real reason to Floyd | hang around in the sky, are forced to touch down. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "Except we can't tell what time it is." | |||

DavidW says (to Floyd), "sing" | ||||
Floyd | Stars sing beautifully in movies, but Hollywood didn't take into Floyd | account that vocal muscles atrophy just like everything else. You sound Floyd | more like a dying yak than an angel. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "aw" | |||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "fly out of crater" | ||||
Floyd | I only understood you as far as wanting to fly. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "xyzzy" | ||||
Floyd | You whisper the magic word, eliciting not even so much as a shudder Floyd | from your wings. But then, you expected that. You're the magical thing; Floyd | you don't get to use it yourself. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Nitku says (to Floyd), "l" | ||||
Floyd | Moon Crater Floyd | Well, it's private, at least. They assured you of this. It's a crumbly Floyd | gray hole dug into a gray field, yes, and the air's choked with dust. Floyd | You can't move without kicking up a new cloud and blinding yourself for Floyd | a few seconds, not that there'd be much to miss. But at least people Floyd | can't see you here. Even if someone down below were to look at the sky Floyd | when you were out of your trench, they'd merely see a shiny speck. Floyd | Windows get them all the time. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Nitku says (to Floyd), "n" | ||||
Floyd | You can't go that way. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Nitku says (to Floyd), "up" | ||||
Floyd | You flutter out of the crater, mussying your streamers a bit on the Floyd | dust walls. Floyd | Floyd | Fieldlands Floyd | They name everything up here like they would down below. So this area, Floyd | silent and blank in all directions, they call a field, despite the lack Floyd | of vegetation. There's nothing around under the horizon but gray dirt, Floyd | and flat sky, and you. The only thing breaking the monotony is Floyd | something raised to the west, and your crater, a few steps away. Above Floyd | you, stars stand in their places, too far away to recognize; looming in Floyd | front of them all is the earth, almost close enough to touch. There's Floyd | no coverage from it; anyone could see you from there, a shiny speck Floyd | tossed into the dust like something misplaced.. Perhaps people won't Floyd | mind. The moon is shining awfully bright tonight, they'll say, resuming Floyd | their affairs, your light as sanction. It's the night for it. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "AH" | |||
DavidW says, "ah" | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x earth" | ||||
Floyd | You expected it to be more spherical, but it's not; more like the Floyd | cross-section of an egg. A lot smaller than you thought, too, and less Floyd | blue. It doesn't give you much hope for your landing, that's for sure. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "x raised" | ||||
Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Let's just walk over and see it." | |||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x stars" | ||||

Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "w" | DavidW says, "wish on a star" | |||
Floyd | Floyd | Leap Pad Floyd | The field parts here, unexpectedly, to accommodate a small platform. Floyd | They call it a mesa, the geographical term, but there's nothing natural Floyd | about it. The slope leading up is too carved, too precise, and the Floyd | edges are cut too well against the night sky. It seems to repel Floyd | everything; the dust is gathered in a moat around it, the craters leave Floyd | a perimeter, and even the stars duck away from it. It's a clear jump, Floyd | from there, up to the earth. Or so the others say. Your site continues Floyd | a ways to the east. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "wish on a star" | ||||
Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline smiles. | |||
Firion snickers. "I was just reminded of a funny bit on Three's Company." | ||||

DavidW says, "try 'leap'" | ||||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "enter platform" | ||||
Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "I was gonna do that from there, but..." | |||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "leap" | ||||
Floyd | You arch your back, just like they taught you, lift your arms, face, Floyd | chest, and leap, but you can't get enough height. Maybe if there was Floyd | something to stand on. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lucea says, "I forgot 'platform'" | |||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "stand on mesa" | ||||
Floyd | You flutter up onto the center of the pad. The sky looks so much... Floyd | bigger from up here. Floyd | Floyd | > | Nitku says, ""Your site continues" | |||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "leap" | ||||
Floyd | They told you the first leap would be the hardest; you'd get used to Floyd | it, it'd be easy. Small comfort; the more you look at the earth, the Floyd | more it seems to scoot away, taunting you. Now or never, you guess. You Floyd | arch your back, just like they taught you; lift your arms, face, chest; Floyd | bend your knees, throw back your head, breath held and hands upon air; Floyd | close your eyes, and leap. Floyd | Floyd | The fringe on your head flares, catches the air, and you expand, Floyd | lurching over the back of gravity and plummeting up, past the Floyd | atmosphere, past gray and black and down into blue, clouds, tumbling, Floyd | every part of you doused with glitter. It must look pretty from down Floyd | there. Floyd | Floyd | But they never mentioned this much tumbling, actually. They never told Floyd | you what clouds could do. You didn't know they could bruise, or rattle Floyd | you, or do anything, really, but hang static in the sky. It isn't Floyd | working, you think, you're out of formation, you can't correct yourself Floyd | or slow the descent. You don't have a star's chance in a black hole of Floyd | surviving and there are buildings on your eyes. | Jacqueline says (to N), "I think that just means we can see a long ways in that direction." | |||
Nitku says, "ah." | ||||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "scream" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | You look around. Desolate. Nothing but a building and the sky you came Floyd | from. You landed, but there's something itching at your back. Getting Floyd | to your feet, you realize its source. You lost a wing coming down. You Floyd | can't fly back without it. Wishes are out of the question, too - if Floyd | anyone sees you like this, tattered and sore, it's over. Something else Floyd | is strange, too. You feel it under your feet, something too supple Floyd | below the ground. The earth isn't spinning like it should, and it's Floyd | probably your fault. You've got to get back into the sky before they Floyd | decide to kick you out of orbit. Floyd | Floyd | Behind A Building Floyd | Earth looked so much more... verdant from above. You'd forgotten that Floyd | beneath the pearl blue and clouds, it looks more like this: square Floyd | buildings stacked on concrete like boxes in a garage. The ground is Floyd | cracked, as are the bricks of the building. Puddles have collected by Floyd | the cracks, grayer than water should be. A sign by a metal door reads Floyd | ~TRUCKS ONLY~, but it's far too late for any to be around; the door's Floyd | closed anyway. Power lines stretch across the air, parceling off the Floyd | stars lucky enough not to be here. In the distance, you see some Floyd | dumpsters to the west. All in all, you'd prefer the bottom of the Floyd | ocean. Floyd | Floyd | > | Taleslinger says, "oops." | |||
Jacqueline says, "I really like some of your descriptions." | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "x wings" | ||||
Floyd | They give every star a pair of wings - ornaments, yes, but the useful Floyd | kind. They glisten when you flap them; from below, it looks like Floyd | twinkling. A neat trick, that. You've lost one of yours, though, and Floyd | the other one isn't looking so great. Twinkling is out of the question. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "The phrase 'square buildings stacked on concrete like boxes in a garage' is just great." | |||
Lucea says, "Thanks" | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "x door" | ||||
Floyd | One of those industrial doors that roll up and down, made of metal Floyd | plates. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "open door" | ||||
Floyd | That's already open. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

DavidW says (to Floyd), "enter building" | ||||
Floyd | There's no way in except the door, and it's firmly shut. Floyd | Floyd | Everything's too still. The trees, the buildings, even the air. How Floyd | much time was supposed to have passed by now? Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "x puddles" | ||||
Floyd | It must have rained earlier. It'd explain all these puddles, still on Floyd | the ground and leaving no crack empty. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "wash" | ||||
Floyd | That's not a verb I recognize. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "clean me" | ||||
Floyd | You achieve nothing by this. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "w" | ||||
Floyd | Some powdery stardust spills from your fringe as you walk. Floyd | Floyd | Near Dumpsters Floyd | Nothing accentuates dingy concrete and abandoned buildings quite like Floyd | dumpsters. There are three of them, and their odor hangs ripe in the Floyd | air. The lot is empty of anything else but cement. A thatch of trees Floyd | encroaches upon the ground to the west, and the lot continues to the Floyd | east. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "look in dumpsters" | ||||
Floyd | You root around in one of the dumpsters, steeling yourself against the Floyd | stench. After a few miserable minutes, you come up with a battered Floyd | snowglobe. Must've been damaged merchandise. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "take stardust" | ||||
Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "look in dumpsters" | ||||

Firion says (to Floyd), "x snowglobe" | ||||
Floyd | You've heard there's an art to snowglobe-making: finding or making Floyd | beautiful baubles to nestle in a sweet winter scene. This snowglobe is Floyd | a dented plastic ball. A bloated toy soldier squats among what looks Floyd | suspiciously like crumpled paper. Lovely. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "shake it" | ||||

Floyd | Floyd | Edge Of Woods Floyd | Maybe "woods" is the wrong word. Even at this hour, you can tell that Floyd | the trees are too sparse to deserve the label. Standing firewood, Floyd | really, gray under a dark gray sky. There's not much else around but a Floyd | barren parking lot to the east. Floyd | Floyd | By a tree, a girl plays with something shiny. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Firion says (to floyd), "x girl" | ||||
Floyd | A small girl - it's hard to tell age when you measure your life by the Floyd | century. She has stiff -- almost sculpted -- brown curls and is dressed Floyd | in what resembles a ruffly pink lampshade. Floyd | Floyd | The girl looks up and sees you, fringe, paint, wing and all.

Firion says (to floyd), "hello" | ||||
Floyd | You've already had your greetings. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "x shiny" | ||||

inky says (to Floyd), "ask girl about wish" | ||||
Floyd | "I can grant you a wish. You have a wish, right?" Floyd | Floyd | Sylvia closes her eyes. "Snow," she intones. Damn. You were hoping it Floyd | was something easy, like a pony. Something less noticeable. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "give globe to girl" | ||||
Floyd | "Here," you say. "You can have this." Floyd | Floyd | Sylvia takes the snowglobe from your hands, dropping your wing. She Floyd | peers at it, tapping the plastic a few times and flipping it over Floyd | slowly. "I guess this is kind of like snow," she starts. "Thanks." Floyd | Floyd | > | inky says, "ha ha" | |||
Taleslinger says (to Floyd), "take wing" | ||||
Floyd | Taken. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "wear wing" | ||||
Floyd | You press the wing to your back; instantly, it affixes itself to your Floyd | skin, with small bursts of pain as it breaks the surface. Sylvia looks Floyd | away, peeking every few seconds -- fortunately, there never was much Floyd | blood in the process. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Once it's finished, you test the wings. Not as sturdy as before, Floyd | certainly not pretty, but they should last for a flight or two. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

DavidW says, "well, try" | ||||
Taleslinger asks, "Wasn't there something about the earth not moving?" | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "leap" | ||||
Floyd | You jump, like they taught you: every part of you poised, just like Floyd | before. Without your wing, though, you don't get far. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lucea says, "eeeagh" | |||
Jacqueline says, "oops" | ||||
inky says, "oopsies" | ||||
Jacqueline asks (of Lucea), "Is that a bug?" | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "x me" | ||||
Floyd | They could have given you more time to prepare. The fringe in your hair Floyd | is all knotted and doesn't resemble clouds or gossamer so much as lint Floyd | strings. Floyd | Your wings are all wrong; against even the slightest breeze they'd Floyd | split like tissue. Your face is clouded over with that miserable moon Floyd | dust. It still shows, no matter how much iridescent paint you use. Floyd | Fortunately, humans aren't star connoisseurs. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lucea says, "yeah" | |||
Taleslinger says, "Ouch." | ||||
Jacqueline asks, "Oh no, will we be able to finish?" | ||||
Lucea says, "wrong verb, though" | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "fly" | ||||
Floyd | You crouch low, spread your arms, then your wings, and leap into the Floyd | air. Sylvia waves at your retreating form, silently. Floyd | Floyd | The ascent is easy; you land on the moon's surface without a hitch. Floyd | After that, it's another story. You heard judgment was tough. Every Floyd | hour until the rulers arrive, you tug at your fringe and ruffle your Floyd | wings anew, preening yourself until it doesn't look like you took a Floyd | fall. Maybe they weren't watching that time. Floyd | Floyd | Whatever you did, it worked. When they arrive, it's with nothing but Floyd | praise. You're gorgeous, they said; leap time has never been better. Floyd | And when they cast you into the sky, wingless and sparkling, it's all Floyd | you can think of for millennia. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | *** You are a grown star *** Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Would you like to RESTART, RESTORE a saved game or QUIT? Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "ah" | |||
Jacqueline says, "PHEW" | ||||
Lucea says, "I forgot I had included that, which is pretty bad, since it's in the title and everything" | ||||
inky says, "you're a star, baby" | ||||
Taleslinger asks, "But what was that about the Earth not moving?" | ||||
Jacqueline says, "That was really lovely. Almost a shame that it's merely a SpeedIF." | ||||
Lucea says, "I had mentioned the physics going past kind of wonky and into "physics? what physics?"" | ||||
Taleslinger says, "Such a beautifully written, cute little game." | ||||
Lucea says, "Thanks" | ||||
Jacqueline says, "Unfortunately, the scientists or chronologists or whoever it is that said we need a leap second didn't give you enough time to program your game into a full blown thing of loveliness for a general release to the IF community by New Years." | ||||
inky says, "ha ha" | ||||
Jacqueline says, "Yes, really great little game." | ||||
Jacqueline asks, "Okay, another break, or press on?" | ||||
Lucea says, "OK, back, sorry, got some tea too" | ||||
Lucea says, "(general release to the IF community? Hm. I guess I can hole up for the next few days and bugfix)" | ||||
DavidW says, "I'm ready to continue, but a break would be okay if others want one." | ||||
Jacqueline says, "Okay, I can continue, too." | ||||
Taleslinger says, "Just a sec." | ||||
Jacqueline says, "Oh, okay." | ||||
Taleslinger says, "Okay, there we go." | ||||
Taleslinger covers his eyes in preparation. | ||||

Floyd | You jump out of the cart and into the poolabove you, the UFO explodes Floyd | in a huge, colorful fireball, as if cast by an epic mage on drugs. Floyd | Debris rain down around you.

He has to scream, because some houses Floyd | in the neighborhood are burning. There are fire engines in the Floyd | distance. Then the real fireworks start. Floyd | Paul wipes the wet hair from your forehead, his warm hand scorching on Floyd | your cold skin, his eyes dark with worry. Floyd | "Some idiot flew a golf cart into the UFO. I wonder how he knew Floyd | someone destroyed all their force field with country music only 10 Floyd | minutes ago." Floyd | You shrug. It feels good, resting on Pauls lap.

Taleslinger says, "would be more easy to find the UPC, and sorry about all the guess-the-verb stuff" | ||||
Lucea says, "No problem" | ||||
Taleslinger says, "Not that the basis for this is to write a game about gay people that isn't about them being gay. I still don't know if potraying them as sex-crazy sociopaths is any better." | ||||

Firion has had his fill of playing for now, and goes back to the Lounge. | DavidW says, "I even have a small logo now, but I haven't put it on all the pages yet." | |||

Limax has had his fill of playing for now, and goes back to the Lounge. | ||||
