#ClubFloyd Discussion
|
|
| Jacqueline hollers, "Goodmorning, everyone! After a week away, ClubFloyd resumes this morning with a post-comp release of Threediopolis by ASchultz, who will be joining us. We start at the top o' the hour!" | ||
| Emily arrives, full of fun, but no funk. | Jacqueline says, "Gosh, it may be a quiet ClubFloyd session." | |
| Jacqueline says, "Binder and Touchy idle, no DavidW..." | ||
| Jacqueline says, "I... think we'll give this a few minutes." | ||
| Jacqueline asks (of Emily), "Have you played Threediopolis?" | ||
| ASchultz says, "well, dont feel bad if nobody shows up. It can be postponed. I was glad to be motivated to fix what I did." | Jacqueline says (to AScultz), "This is why I'm never allowed to take a vacation. One week off and the goldfish forget we gather on Sunday mornings." | |
| Jacqueline says, "I wouldn't worry too much, yet. I mean, if we postpone we will postpone, but next week we have New Year's SpeedIFs in the queue, so I'd like to knock Threediopolis out, especially since you've put a lot of post-comp work into it in preparation for this session." | ||
| Doug arrives, full of neither funk nor fun. | Emily says (to Jacqueline), "I have played it, yeah" | |
| Emily says, "I just wanted to hang out a bit" | ||
| Emily says, "and watch" | ||
| Jacqueline says (to Emily), "Ah." | ||
| Jacqueline asks (of Doug), "What about you, have you played it?" | ||
| Doug says, "almost forgot!" | ||
| Doug says, "nope." | ||
| Jacqueline says, "Yay, cool." | ||
| Jacqueline says (to Doug), "I think a few other people have almost forgotten, so I'm going to give it until quarter after." | ||
| Doug says, "also, I'm not a goldfish." | ||
| Doug says, "and yeah, I can wait." | ||
| Jacqueline says, "So, tea and coffee and bathroom and stuff, people." | ||
| Jacqueline says (to Doug), "Actually, Mythbusters tested and completely busted the 'goldfish have a four second memory' thing." | ||
| Doug says, "okay, then I guess I am a goldfish after all." | ||
| Jacqueline says, "They actually can be trained to navigate a simple maze, which sort of negates that theory." | ||
| Jacqueline says (to Doug), "Well, let's hope there are no mazes in Threediopolis." | ||
| Doug asks, "I think it's all one big maze, isn't it?" | ||
| Jacqueline says, "Oh dear." | ||
| Jacqueline asks (of ASchultz), "In all seriousness, is this a game where we should make a map?" | ||
| Doug says, "a Threedi map" | ||
| Allen arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | ASchultz says, "I don't think a classic map would be helpful. Or, thankfully, necessary." | |
| Allen says, "I'm only here for a brief while today, so I think I'll just observe and not get involved in the game" | ||
| Jacqueline says, "Okay, cool. Thanks." | ||
| Doug says, "DavidW said he was having Internet issues yesterday, so that might be why he isn't here" | ||
| Doug says, "also looks like he was up pretty late..." | ||
| Jacqueline says, "Well, I only have until about two and a half hours, as the family on the other side of the pond is assembling for a videocall at that time. But hopefully if we're not all the way through it we'll at least be a good chunk of the way in." | ||
| ASchultz says, "with a team, and the hints I added, I don't think the game will take more than 2 hours." | ||
| Jacqueline asks, "Given ASchultz's normal stuff, though, I suspect we won't get through the game in... oh?" | ||
| Jacqueline says, "Well, things are always a bit slower on Floyd, but I guess we'll see." | ||
| Jacqueline says, "Anyway, let's do this thing." | ||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "load sleepmask threediopolis4" | ||
Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Threediopolis was the first city to have different sidewalk levels, Floyd | one above another, back in 2050. It's pretty normal now in 2100, but Floyd | they didn't plan everything right back then, so Threediopolis is still Floyd | a bit quirky. Floyd | Floyd | You still get lost some days, like today--while remembering a Floyd | traumatic episode from your youth (adults yelling at you for somehow Floyd | getting lost on a simple errand) you run across a building you've Floyd | never seen. You enter and are whisked to a penthouse office. A fellow Floyd | wearing a fractal power-tie and a white button-down shirt with elbow Floyd | patches jumps up. Floyd | Floyd | "Ah! You answered my online ad! What? No? You didn't? Even better! Floyd | You're a natural! Unpoisoned by GPS! Just what I need! It's not anyone Floyd | can find here. I'm Ed Dunn. You are? ..." | ||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "press green" | ||
Floyd ] Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Before you can answer, Ed hands you a list of tasks, an equally Floyd | mysterious package you're told not to open, and a pocket teleporter Floyd | device, for getting back if you get even more lost than you need to. Floyd | Floyd | "Getting here was the hard part, kid. But if you don't get everything Floyd | on this list done before you get back here, that's okay." Floyd | Floyd | Before you can ask what list, Ed makes a hush-hush gesture. "It's Floyd | organized by travel time, kid. Or it should be, once you find how to Floyd | use it. Don't worry, just--don't lose it." Floyd | Floyd | He explains how some things just don't need to be traced Floyd | electronically, and how there's lots of weird scenery to see if you're Floyd | interested in that sort of thing, and since you got here without Floyd | knowing, you couldn't get anywhere on the list WITH knowing. Floyd | Floyd | "Knowing what...?" Floyd | Floyd | "One other thing, kid. You might want to use that teleporter pretty Floyd | quickly if you don't see anything to start. Say, no further than five Floyd | blocks. Til you get your bearings." Floyd | Floyd | Ed stares at his computer, then snaps his fingers. "Oh, hey, I should Floyd | push this button. Alphabetize this whole list, sort of. Make things Floyd | easier for the rookie. What do you say?" | ||

Floyd | it's not just getting there, but HOW you get there." You've heard that
Floyd | truism before...but does it mean anything? You have no time to ask.
Floyd | Security whisks you away as Ed booms "And keep with it. Note what you
Floyd | found. Don't worry about the order, either!"
Floyd |
Floyd | It's not a huge list. You even have addresses of where to go. It can't
Floyd | be too hard, can it?

| Jacqueline says, "Oh right, you're a puzzly sort." | ||
| Doug asks, "maybe?" | ||

Floyd | Floyd | Type CREDITS for testers and such. Floyd | Floyd | A previous IFComp game that might spoil this game's mechanic also Floyd | probably had considerable influence on this game, though it does have Floyd | a lot more plot and cool locations. Floyd | Floyd | I hope you enjoy this. I recognize some people won't, and that's cool, Floyd | and I don't want to play the "I know some philistines may hate it" Floyd | card. However, if it helps someone who doesn't like it try their Floyd | own thing, that'd be way cool.
