This is a heart-felt request to all aspiring comedians, but also any indie developers who are also aspiring comedians:
If you ever have the urge to describe yourself as the next Monty Python, SLAM YOUR HEAD IN A DOOR UNTIL YOU COMPLETELY FORGET THEIR EXISTENCE.
You'll just be setting everybody up for disappointment, and joining the ranks of the developers of Limbo of the Lost and Stalin vs Martians. Monty Python was good, make no mistake, but their humor is mostly funny for reasons completely opposite the original now. I somewhat suspect that they were in the right place at the right time, and no amount of talent or writing or posturing will get you there. You can be funny in your own right, but it's a bad idea to aspire to directly recreate their success.

HOLY CARP KOI AND SALMON
Scary...
Anyway, the lesson to take away from that is, people will do demented things to any game that we happen to make. We're not too much closer, tbh, so far as I know, because I haven't seen anything from the others, and I've been doing exam-related stuff, like slacking off.

Ugh... Nostalgia...
Hey guys, remember when webpages used tables for layouts, and didn't bother trying to hide it? Huge, ten-pixel borders, picking out that "HEY! LOOK! I USED TABLES FOR NON-TABULAR DATA! LOOK AT THIS!"
I have the idea that those were the days, but I also have no clear idea why.
Man, back then, some sites would just completely refuse to render under some browsers. Not for ideological reasons, but because standards... weren't.
