the anime gauntlet. sunset classroom. eternal fire and copper masks of the progenitors

after-school seduction. cherry blossom. jewels of five different colors to collect and trade













it's amazing how powerfully a single image can induce this yearning sensation, this unsolvable mystery. it's one of the most real and heartfelt things the internet can make us feel, in my opinion - an idea transplanted from a world completely unlike your own, source unknown, meaning unfathomable, a permanent monolith to awe-inspiring beauty, fear, disgust, nostalgia trapped and made manifest through nothing more than a series of numbers defining colors on a grid of lights. it's funny that while the world seems smaller in many ways because of globalization and increasing access to information, the easy exposure to alien mindsets and cultures makes one feel more tiny and lost and alone than ever before. duhhhhhh maybe this is all completely nonsensical

i worship a whirlwind of an infinite amount of random digits, sifting through the data flow for blessings from an impartial content god, Gay Nerds Kissing Voyeur (funny).mpeg

XARGON: you are "Malvineous Havershim" and you're lost in a strange world!! defeat an evil emperor and get back home!! jump in water to somehow manifest a submersible around your body that vanishes when you get out!! the soundtrack has some of most strange and organic FM stuff I've ever heard in games







STIXWORLD was another game I had access to, with a vague sense of nonlinearity that blew my mind. I could barely get anywhere in it, but it felt massive. playing it now it's really nothing impressive but it has a unique art style for 1998 and used a physics system without typical sprites



i found this while i was looking for more information about the game

dare to dream was a pretty great game!

re: Xargon: I never got to the part depicted in the glum screenshots when I was little. the first episode is actually really colorful and pretty, with some lovely tiles. (it is a pretty clunky game though)




there's also a part early on in an enchanted forest - the game up until this point has been bright and pretty cheery, apart from the weird-ass enemies. then you go into these twisting dark woods and all of a sudden the background is completely black. huge trolls slowly stomp left and right firing lasers out of their eyes. the trees look like something that grew in a swamp, off-white and covered in vines, with fat branches that taper to upturned points. at one point in my life I had forgotten the name of the game and any details about it except for this single level. in my faulty recollection, the trolls were as tall as the screen...

also dare to dream looks AMAZING, especially that alligator, ahahaha



also gotta love the meaningless family-friendly video game graffiti

           YO!

reminds me of that concept art for FFVII that had a picture of a Shinra facade with the word "Fuck" spraypainted across it in enormous letters, not covering anything up, just adjacent to the company's name. in game it got censored to "Pyck"

That's a cool idea, as long as it only got the stuff from this forum and people couldn't just post directly to the Tumblr because that would kill this topic and it's the best we got atm. 

Link it back to the forums and then we have a temp mainsite. Ta-da

Sounds good imo Dada

I think it'd be cool if that tumblr site was the "frontpage" for salt world.


On the new forum, maybe you could add a button on posts/topics that certain users could see and could submit a thread/post to the tumblr as well?
