TXC2: title change!
TehAmelie: *sound of excitement*
LoadingReadyRun: it won't let me use the word "creep" in the going live notification :(
TXC2: boooo
TehAmelie: maybe call it Radiohead World
Juliamon: ^
TehAmelie: wait, there has to be funnier synonyms for creeper
Juliamon: I Can't Believe It's Not Minecraft
TXC2: STALKER!....wait
TehAmelie: International House of Crepes
Garfman314: creper world?
TheMerricat: crepeworld which is an entirely delightful place to live.
Juliamon: lrrSIG
Earthenone: lrrSIG
TheMerricat: lrrSIG lrrSIG lrrSIG
TehAmelie: maybe "Crëpes" makes it sound closer to creepers
TheAinMAP: lrrSIG SSSsss lrrSIG
Earthenone watched 105 consecutive streams and sparked a watch streak!

TheMerricat: Protip chat: Before typing into chat to ask if there is audio, double check you haven't accidently muted the stream. :D
TXC2: ah the halcyon days of Flash games
tdapenguin: @TheMerricat High five!
TXC2: TheMerricat yeap, had that problem before
TehAmelie: to be even more fair, the two has wildly different takes on turning creeper vines into videogame monsters
BraveOthello: Paul is here to what now?
DideRobot: LRR: Paul is here to save us from the unstoppable fluid enemy! https://twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun (has image) | https://kind.social/@LoadingReadyRun/116614336731895413
beowuuf: there's a building near portsmouth railway station that seems ike a barely disguised creeper. don't be fooled
AugmentingPath: @TehAmelie Oh, I've never played minecraft, is a minecraft creeper not also some sort of bluish goo?
Wolfstrike_NL: Has Cori become fluid?
TehAmelie: they're part plant, part evil ghost and part dynamite
BraveOthello: @AugmentingPath It's basically a walking, leaf camouflaged TNT block
Garfman314: i just watched a 12 year old stream of paul playing creeper world 3
TheAinMAP: lrrDOTS lrrCIRCLE lrrARROW lrrCREEPL lrrCREEPR

Mangledpixel: *points* it's a PAUL!
Flyingdelorion: Hello Cori, Paul, and chat!
TheMerricat: :D
TXC2: hello Flyingdelorion welcome
OldUncleDan: I like to describe Creeper World as Protoss Towers vs. Zerg Creep.
Vinewood_OG: Have you any carbonated refreshments?
BraveOthello: @fr0_ZHM He does in fact have a corporeal form
protojman: move over Minecraft drinking sfx
jamesk902: Just splice a 10 minute still of you sitting there into the YouTube Vod.
iris_of_ether: Guarantea
xVoxtric: Hello!
goatprince: time 2 creep
Simbionis: excited for this one
13 raiders from Mightymur have joined!

SnackPak_: there were questions
TXC2: same here Cori
Jazmine2023: MurRaid 👍❤️😉😻
Gekyouryuu: hello, friends

iris_of_ether: Oh she does
SnackPak_: peak gaming

iris_of_ether: I think I have hundreds of hours of Psychonauts without having played more than like an hour myself
TehAmelie: i accidentally scored like 3 days in Elite Dangerous after i only played it for 15 minutes. sillly launcher
TheMerricat: Paul casually burning modern game devs. :D
Gekyouryuu: idea for a future talking sim: bungie announced they're wrapping up destiny 2. Cam and Graham could give a post-notquitemortem
Mangledpixel: they do still have some fairly strict guidelines
TheMerricat: @Gekyouryuu Destiny 2 is going away?!
LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
TXC2: I the opposite problem, Steam says I have 90 mins in Fallout3, yet I finished the game :p
beowuuf: I have q ridiculous amount of bornderlands 2 hours. I played it a lot, but i left it paused and running when not playing
Gekyouryuu: @TheMerricat not away. they're gonna keep it playable, like 1, but they're planning a final update
beowuuf: steam hates the non-steam playthroughs :p
TXC2: debug mode is litterly one of the cheats in Sonic 2

Mangledpixel: amusing developers is an important function
iris_of_ether: escher3BUZZ escher3BUZZ escher3BUZZ
TheMerricat: @TXC2 I put so many hours into TF2 _before_ Steam started tracking hours played and now no one believes me when I tell the how many hours I actually have in it when I play. :D
TehAmelie: they used to give these tools special to game magazines to help them review games faster. i was so jealous
TXC2: TheMerricat ha :D
Mangledpixel: just hammer the server until new items appear
TheMerricat: NGL the robot is a better player than having a team. :D
protojman: deep rock rogue core just went early access
TehAmelie: ah, that weird multiplayer version of DRG Survivor
Jigokuro: I have played a few of the old Creeper Worlds back on Kongregate as flash games. I wonder how the new(?) Steam one are...
niccus: remember Adobe Air
TXC2: I always played on armor games
OldUncleDan: Paul, have you played much of CW IXE? I played some, but didn't care for it.
frnknstn: like zelda 2
TXC2: like a plane view

LordZarano watched 340 consecutive streams and sparked a watch streak!
Garfman314: i was just watching you play that from 12 years ago
TheMerricat: No for LRR
TheMerricat: You've played it since then too, you gave us a tour of it post Things on my Stream.
goatprince: noita
RealGamerCow: I think Paul is responsible for the bulk of Creeper World sales
Jigokuro: Noita is great...
JadedCynic: Noita is pronounced 'noy-ta'
OldUncleDan: @RealGamerCow I bought the game because of his CW3 stream.
RealGamerCow: as did I
JadedCynic: noita is also pretty different from all the creeper games
TehAmelie: ditto
TXC2: the dial map device
TheMerricat: @OldUncleDan Same here, I own all of them but 4 and iXE because they came out after I no longer had disposable income but they all got bought because Paul played them for us.
letsbelgo: khaosp4Lick khaosp4Lick khaosp4Lick khaosp4Lick
TehAmelie: there's so many hundreds of maps built into the game. and by they get hard.
TXC2: Creeper world forever did that, new map everyday
iris_of_ether: So does my spouse yeah
Gekyouryuu: oh! speaking of, seed hunters found a Minecraft seed with EVERY biome and structure within 1000 blocks of 0,0
TheMerricat: @Gekyouryuu Oh... if I still played Vanilla I'd be on that like a flash, but I suspect it'd be a far different generation if I tried it in modded with all the extra biomes added. :D
TXC2: Gekyouryuu incredible
RealGamerCow: Oh god I remember playing user-made DOOM levels in 1996, such a gamut of quality
Jigokuro: Hand crafted levels/puzzles will always be better on the top end than procedural, but the point of curation is salient.
Mangledpixel: twice as long as half its length
Simbionis: a creeper world level can take hours if its real hard
TehAmelie: it's a little interesting thanks to the high score lists. but eh, still so many hundreds of carefulyl crafted maps i haven't beat
laff_o_tron subscribed at Tier 1. They've subscribed for 119 months!
laff_o_tron: Creeper World?!? Now gone full circle, been playing 3 since GPLP
LRRbot: lrrSPOT Thanks for subscribing, laff_o_tron! (Today's storm count: 6)
niccus: some rush strategies can be very fast, but most levels can be taken slow
goatprince: i'm a turtler as well
jamesk902: OK, that does sound good.
TehAmelie: turtle power :D
OldUncleDan: Honestly, the Campaigns for these games are my favorite way to play. They are so well crafted.
BrainBetter: Oh hey, that's me! No wonder I like these games.
iris_of_ether: HypeLUL
TheMerricat: My standard Supreme Commander playstyle: Build my base, make it impenetrable, then bomb the hell out of the rest of the map. :D
laff_o_tron: Never finished campaigns, final levels are absolute bears
TXC2: gain equilibrium, then expand to win
laff_o_tron: Especially the carrier in 3
TheMerricat: Life goals - never leave a map without every resource tapped, every square inch of territory claimed, and anything exploitable exploited. :D
TehAmelie: as far as i can tell, CW3 gives you points only based on how fast you win compared to some algorithmically determined ideal time. sort of annoying if you really want to be patient.
TheMerricat: "Knuckle Cracker (often known by his real name, Virgil Wall) is an independent video game developer best known for creating the Creeper World series. "
TXC2: I think CW3 has the best campaign
laff_o_tron: @TehAmelie And seeing sub 20 second times on levels really sucks the air out of even trying speed
TehAmelie: that too
TXC2: laff_o_tron I've always assumed those are hacked times
laff_o_tron: They presumably are, but there is no marker to differetiate, so I have no idea of the fastest actual time
RealGamerCow: @TehAmelie Which is hell for someone like me who is *very* deliberate
MrVirite: pages of maps?
niccus: the fast times are more doable than they look since pausing is free, but you do have to do very risky things
TheMerricat: Is that actually 372 maps or 372 PAGES of maps?
TXC2: pages of maps
TXC2: the fanbase for these games is small but DEDICATED
TehAmelie: we're playing Talking Sim!
laff_o_tron: Unfortunately i cannot stay, since i need sleep, will catch the vod. Have fun good luck dont die
SnackPak_: lrrBartleby holes
EricTheOrange: Did paul make this map?
TheMerricat: @laff_o_tron Have a good sleep!
Gekyouryuu: we need to run a test for a monarch over 6 feet. a tall king simulator
TXC2: Crevice? SOOOOOO INNNNNN
TXC2: so long laff_o_tron sleep well
frnknstn: somehow 3D is just more intimidating? Less inviting?
TXC2: EricTheOrange he just procedurally generated it
SquareDotCube: ignore the tear in space
TXC2: spores, my bane
MrVirite: @SquareDotCube what tear?
Manae: Gathering minerals to make pylons? Waaaait a minute here
OldUncleDan: Red Dawn? Wolverines!!!!!! lrrBEEJ
TXC2: and now we see if Paul is, like me, super anal about having the energy building built in an exact grid :p
OldUncleDan: @Manae Like I said. This is Protoss Towers vs. Zerg Creep.
goatprince: your NETWORK is your NET WORTH. as they say
TehAmelie: i always liked the energy resource. it's like a complete abstraction of taking territory and using its resources.
SixPairsOfFeet: nope, no exact grid at all :D
TXC2: SixPairsOfFeet yeah :p
goatprince: the GOOEYness is very important
RealGamerCow: thicc goo
OldUncleDan: Down with the Thiccness.
TehAmelie: i dunno, it's exactly like i picture it in 2D
BraveOthello: Ahhh! Creepers!
SixPairsOfFeet: in the 2D the creeper also doesn't feel like it really does waves like it does in the 3D
TXC2: some good fluid dynamics in that creeper waves
RealGamerCow: oh neat they kept the moving animation
RealGamerCow: of lifting up and moving
EricTheOrange: never played 4 but I really liked 3. while I prefer the 2D I do like being able to see the depth.
BrowneePointz: Speaking of RTSes, for folks who didn't hear earlier, Dawn of War 4 release date, Sept 17! (They're also making a 2D Skaven Action Platformer)
Mr_Horrible: one step closer to the edge?
Mr_Horrible: is it about to break?
Laserbeaks_Fury: One step close to the edge, AND I'M ABOUT TO BREAK
TXC2: is there a TERP that changes terrain in this game like in CW3 ?
Garfman314: your sniper's not connected
SixPairsOfFeet: whenever I'm playing I spend so much time in pause mode, Paul is just doing it completely raw like that
SixPairsOfFeet: yeah terp is still in CW4
TXC2: Paul is doing this placement on purpose to harm me specifically :p
TXC2: SixPairsOfFeet ah good
EricTheOrange: I
Mr_Horrible: Terp Budget
AugmentingPath: TERraPhormer, obviously (I have no idea)
Mangledpixel: Turtle Eating Raw Potato
EricTheOrange: I've always like the satisfying feeling of slow progress that creeper world gives
BraveOthello: TErrain inteRPolator
goatprince: Aunty Creeper....
TehAmelie: anticreeper, it's just like creeper but it's good cause it's on our side
LordZarano: Tiberium?
TXC2: the Yakult of Creeper
OldUncleDan: Mutually destroy each other and emit a whole bunch of Gamma Radiation!
SixPairsOfFeet: love me a good Gish
EricTheOrange: in CR3 you could change the color of creeper and anti-creeper. I made temp complementary colors so they stand out more.

niccus: pepis creeper
TehAmelie: i made them green and green-blue. maybe not the most strategic but it looks nice
Mangledpixel: it moisturises
EricTheOrange: it's like LCL fluid
Garfman314: what's the range on the nullifier?
BraveOthello: A shortgun? Is that like a shotgun?
ArtDecoSunburn: @Garfman314 Null?
TehAmelie: power nodes were too powerful eh
EricTheOrange: can the creeper on the other side of the gorge bridge the gap. I remember in CW3 if the creeper got like 50 layers deep it could cross gaps.
goatprince: that goop wall is gettin' gushy
ArtDecoSunburn: Are the creepers like zombies, or kudzu?
TXC2: it's like the great link from DS9 :p
TXC2: ArtDecoSunburn like kudzu yeah
AugmentingPath: the creeper found the subocean. This is now an honorary episode of Watch and Play
ghizmou: Capping !
SquareDotCube: Creeper is the grey goo conundrum
BrainBetter: The fun of surrounding emitters with guns and hoping!
ArtDecoSunburn: @TXC2 Ahh, takes me back home to Alabama. If a cow stands still long enough . . .
SixPairsOfFeet: we are all trying to find the guy who did this
ArtDecoSunburn: Makes me think of "Pirates of Dark Water."
niccus: and dont worry about the creeper wall on the other continent
SixPairsOfFeet: but it's good that it's so easy to remember which resource is what color
TXC2: how does it compare to Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres? :p
SquareDotCube: "Olivine, cinnabar and cobaltite was too on the nose"
TehAmelie: @niccus that's just there to go blooey when our mortars can reach it!
ratbabyonline: Thanks for providing entertainment for me and my visiting partner as we're dtuck
ArtDecoSunburn: Ahh, harvesting nebulous crystals. Very "Command and Conquer."
ratbabyonline: *while we're stuck home sick
ratbabyonline: Love creeper world
Mr_Horrible: "Prove your loyalty to me"
ArtDecoSunburn: @ratbabyonline Hope you feel better soon. Dtuck sounds like a miserable illness.
TXC2: ratbabyonline good correction, I assumed you meant "drunk" :p
TehAmelie: all i want to do in this game is build mortals and blow big holes in creeper. reminds me of being a kid with firecrackers
TehAmelie: mortars, too

Mr_Horrible: good bit kanagoSalute
munocard: turd hole with the red balloons is my father.
SquareDotCube: If your turd hole has glowing blue veins, see a doctor immediately
Mr_Horrible: I remember "Red balloons" as a lucky charms marshmallow but I'm not sure about the "turd holes"
TehAmelie: @SquareDotCube glowing anything really
xX_Before_The_Dawn_Xx: did this start as a C&C mod?
Garfman314: it started as a flash game
TXC2: xX_Before_The_Dawn_Xx nope, started as a flash game back in the day
Thisbymaster: I played this until the final level and just couldn't crack it.
TehAmelie: i thought it started with a fluid simulation, or was that just a theory?
AugmentingPath: @TXC2 It does share a lot of its conceptual DNA with starcraft, though
ArtDecoSunburn: "Who cares where the rocket comes down? That's not my department, says Werner von Braun."
BrainBetter: @ArtDecoSunburn RIP Tom Lehrer
BraveOthello: In a world ...
AugmentingPath: under the sea
ArtDecoSunburn: @munocard That would be a very particular sort of French art film.
NeoGetz: Creeper World 1 was my first ever digital game purchase, I'm so glad the series still gets love
KaleidoscopeMind: taking a bath
SquareDotCube: to the great blue beyond
Thisbymaster: went to the farm upstate
BrainBetter: He went to play Subnautica...
ArtDecoSunburn: @Thisbymaster Room to frolic and . . . creep?
Decaped: Creeper Underworld?
SixPairsOfFeet: actually CW4 has a cool thing that when energy is low it will fully build one tower at a time instead of taking hours to do all in parallel
ArtDecoSunburn: Is anticreeper green, like antifreeze?
TXC2: ArtDecoSunburn sadly it's white in this game
Decaped: I think I want a creeper world expansion to Factorio
TXC2: oh yeah that powerup noise
ArtDecoSunburn: @TXC2 So, off-brand antifreeze.
niccus: this is one required objective
TXC2: ArtDecoSunburn maybe bleach?

SixPairsOfFeet: you stole fizzy liftic drinks!
Decaped: tiny black holes traveling through the earth aren't bad!
TXC2: look, we don't know if the micro-plastics are bad, and we can't know, given there's no plastic free control group :p
TehAmelie: reminds me of C&C 2's time traveling tiberium harvesters. felt like a bit of overkill
accountmadeforants: If they were bad, we'd know about it because we'd immediately see bad things happening.
ArtDecoSunburn: @Decaped Not if you're a Swiss physicist with a grant deadline.
TXC2: TehAmelie good old crono-miners
EthirealPlayer: am i having a stroke?
SquareDotCube: always room in the terp budget
BraveOthello: @EthirealPlayer Depends, do you smell toast?
ArtDecoSunburn: @TXC2 They really leaned into temporal displacement in those sequels.
SixPairsOfFeet: did the emitters already stop emitting after the delegate fired off?
EthirealPlayer: @BraveOthello no?
SixPairsOfFeet: no, they did not, i see it spew now haha
ArtDecoSunburn: @EthirealPlayer Can you recite the alphabet backwards?
EthirealPlayer: not well?
MrVirite: @ArtDecoSunburn I can't even do that sober!
TehAmelie: we have developed a small scale, precise, repeatable time teleport process, and we'll use it to make the tractor get back home faster from the field
TXC2: recite the alphabet backwards was basically entrapment by the cops :p
ChroniclerC: Will creep naturally evaporate if it's not being added to? (Do we need to worry about those isolated pockets, or do they go away on their own?)
Invitare: I think you can set them to let anticreeper through? Or maybe that's just the wall ones
xX_Before_The_Dawn_Xx: @TehAmelie they did have rocketeers with Crono lasers too
ArtDecoSunburn: @EthirealPlayer I'll use my unrelated, non-medical doctorate to proclaim you stroke-free over the internet! We'll just say you have pseudo-gout. Eat a banana.
SixPairsOfFeet: did anyone here in chat ever play Achron? it's an RTS with time travel and grandfather paradoxes and stuff
TXC2: TehAmelie you joke, but that is probably one of the best uses for it full stop IRL
TehAmelie: you'd think it could at least go both ways :p
BraveOthello: @EthirealPlayer Seriously though, FAST. Face (is it dropping), Arms (do you have asymmetric weakness), Speech (are you experiencing trouble speaking), Time(to call emergency if you are)
TXC2: ChroniclerC it does not, no, it spreads out like heat
ArtDecoSunburn: @BraveOthello That's a good real world reminder. Thanks for sharing, Othello. Iago did you wrong.
TXC2: TehAmelie I guess it was set to return to an anchor point, much easier then going out to some changing spot
BraveOthello: @ArtDecoSunburn Let's not talk about Desdamona
Mangledpixel: the big Arthur Dent
mjiig: There's a fun community map where you start with 20 or so orbitals, and there are no emitters, but the map starts completely covered in deep creeper
TheAinMAP: jlrrCreeper jlrrCreeper jlrrCreeper
TXC2: Rods from god!
ArtDecoSunburn: @BraveOthello Hey, when you feel down, at least you're not in "Titus Andronicus.". Can't even sit for a quite supper there.
Thisbymaster: MORE
BraveOthello: @Thisbymaster MOAR!
TXC2: MORTAR!
Thisbymaster: has he shown off the airplanes?
ArtDecoSunburn: @TXC2 Mo(to)ar?
TehAmelie: mortar combat! wait that's been done
TXC2: ArtDecoSunburn yes
xX_Before_The_Dawn_Xx: LESSSSSssssss...Creeper
BraveOthello: @TehAmelie I think that's just trench warfare
IanAllenBird: whoa
goatprince: oh
IanAllenBird: ohohoho
TheAinMAP: sergeHolyMoly
Despoiler98: the COMBO
ArtDecoSunburn: Has anyone investigated if the creeper can be converted to profitable cosmetic use, like with botox? "Sure, it devours all existence, but boy does it reduce eczema!"
TehAmelie: the mother of all chemical peels
EricTheOrange: @ArtDecoSunburn I suggest looking into 'World of Goo'
ArtDecoSunburn: @TehAmelie "Removes layers even God didn't know existed."

silenceaux: Creeper's parent's sister, I suppose
SquareDotCube: some sort of enzyme
EricTheOrange: I never really paid that much attention to the story, maybe they explain it
ArtDecoSunburn: As an historian, I'm pretty certain the creeper here is a manifestation of "The Sources of Soviet Conduct" from George Kennan's long telegram. This is clearly all about the spread of Marxist-Leninist influence to Southeast Asia.
goatprince: talcum powder suspended in skin lotion
BraveOthello: As long as it doesn't infoliate
ekimekim: is it known to the state of california to cure cancer?
niccus: it's what robbie williams used
SandwichKed: So I've played all these games, and only now I realize that this is simply a more pleasantly complex powerwash simulator.
OldUncleDan: Need to mine more Greendar, it seems.
SandwichKed: Shame about CW5, tho.
BraveOthello: @SandwichKed Elaborate
ArtDecoSunburn: @BraveOthello "Rubs you clean from the inside!"
accountmadeforants: What kind of bad stuff? Like... asbestos?
ArtDecoSunburn: @SandwichKed Domino theory powerwash?
TehAmelie: i'd like to think the scientists don't even know what anticreeper is. "it behaves exactly like regular creeper, except for mutually annihilating it. what else do we have to know?"
OldUncleDan: Creeper Propreganda: Anti-Creeper is the real Creeper.
ShaneLeeAtk: Now you're thinking with Portals!
EricTheOrange: stop using the portal? but what if... more portal.
AugmentingPath: @TehAmelie It doesn't damage our stuff, that's its main important property
SandwichKed: CW5 has the CW2 perspective with some Particle Fleet mechanics, very puzzle-y levels, and a lot of mixing substances for effect. It's interesting but I have a hard time calling it fun.
TehAmelie: that's probably just gameplay necessity
accountmadeforants: Oh that's fun
ArtDecoSunburn: @accountmadeforants My favorite useless anecdote: Charlemagne had an asbestos tablecloth. He would impress barbarian chieftains by spilling wine on it and then tossing it in the fire to clean the stains.
OldUncleDan: @SandwichKed Umm, Actually... That's not CW5. It's CW IXE.
ChroniclerC: My creep now!
dumbo3k: Ever forward! Advance!
OldUncleDan: Pushes Glasses up bridge of nose.
SandwichKed: Ow, my memory
SixPairsOfFeet: anyone in chat tried this seed yet?
AugmentingPath: @TehAmelie can't believe the dev is misrepresenting the properties of REAL anticreeper lrrAWW
AugmentingPath: It's dangerous misinfo, honestly
accountmadeforants: @ArtDecoSunburn I know that would impress me today. (Asbestos is real cool, shame about it being asbestos.)
goatprince: the lotion makes it fine over there
TheAinMAP: HahaThisisfine
TehAmelie: it would be interesting if it was as dangerous as regular creeper
kusinohki: meows
TXC2: hello kusinohki welcome
ArtDecoSunburn: Is this whole game secretly anti-weed propaganda from Monsanto's Roundup spray?
kusinohki: I thought the world of creepers was minecraft...
GateThief subscribed with Prime. They've subscribed for 47 months!
LRRbot: lrrSPOT Thanks for subscribing, GateThief! (Today's storm count: 12)
ArtDecoSunburn: @accountmadeforants (Coughs in agreement)
TXC2: !break
LRRbot: Remember chat, break time for the streamer means break time for YOU, so unclench, get up, stretch, walk about a bit, and maybe refresh your drink, take your meds, or go to the toilet if you need to. Don't forget to wash your hands!
SandwichKed: But yeah, love CW3, CW4 is almost all good.
TXC2: right chat I'm off
OldUncleDan: I personally feel that while it isn't the best; Particle Fleet: Emergence is underrated.
KeytarCat: Aggressive eggs? I hope they can transition soon
TXC2: Goodnight everybody, and thanks for streaming Cori and Paul
EricTheOrange: I did blue and orange for creeper and anti-creeper colors
SandwichKed: anything works, just not you-can't-see-me-white
niccus: orange does match with Goo Gone
RealGamerCow: This song is almost as old as some of the promo shots for the games and skits.
RealGamerCow: still a certified banger
OldUncleDan: Honestly, I just wish Life would give me Grapefruits instead of Lemons.
OldUncleDan: But, Lemons are fine, I suppose.
MrGibberish: @olduncledan peaches. And not the bruised kind
kusinohki: anyone know why bgc stopped doing db remixes? there was like 1 a year for 5-6 years and then they just stopped (unless I don't know where the new ones are)
TheAinMAP: lrrSIG
frnknstn: campaign
SandwichKed: Less 3d, more fun.
SixPairsOfFeet: the soundtrack is burned into my brain
OldUncleDan: Digitalis... Ugh... I have a great deal of disdain for that mechanic.
OldUncleDan: Paul "I am the Creeper" Saunders.
Awaiko: Good morning chat, good morning Paul and Cori. I hope everyone's well.
niccus: the series has flipped back and forth about whether or not you get to actually kill emitters
accountmadeforants: Going from Creeper World 4 to Creeper World 3 feels like going from Supreme Commander to the real Supreme Commander where most of the time you're zoomed out to the Strategic Zoom and everything's icons :p
accountmadeforants: Piss vs Cleaning Fluid
EricTheOrange: well if the anti-creeper is yellow then the creeper should be purple
BusTed: ouch oof
ChroniclerC: Oh, are we playing as the creep now?
OldUncleDan: I believe it is Lua.
Garfman314: hows your right side?
SquareDotCube: Creeper always be creepin'
OldUncleDan: IIRC: Digitalis was supposed to work for both Creeper and Anti-Creeper. The idea was that the player would be able to take over the Digitalis for their own benefit.
niccus: and who's responsible for that
SandwichKed: old Dell chicklet keyboards ftw
whittacre: Ploopy's new widget
Astrovore: Ploopy!
Astrovore: great products, terrible name
whittacre: The Bean!
whittacre: I know lenovo used to sell a full keyboard that had the trackpoint in it. They're nice for hauling around a datacenter & plugging into headless servers
Unpronounceable: The reason the nipple mouse was good, was because it let you keep your hands on the home row
TreeVor84: I use a trackball to help prevent epicondylitis
Unpronounceable: Putting it in a separate device is...why?
ContingentCat: oh noo
RealGamerCow: First person shooter on a drawing pad? Ewww
SquareDotCube: Distract it with spores?
ChroniclerC: sergeScopeCreep
OldUncleDan: "Hi! I'm Paul Saunders! And this is the Creeper."
Dalrint: So is the creeper winning...
ContingentCat: in our defense when we were watching it we were children
Boiler_bot: "Paul Sanderoth! You were behind this!"
SandwichKed: no, the fandom was aware
TheMerricat: @Dalrint We are the creeper this time.
MWGNZ: its true children are defenceless
ContingentCat: he's there for moral support mostly yeah
goatprince: and then he dies in an airplane off shot
OldUncleDan: Season 2 was a thing.
PenguinoRojo: he only does it to deflect attacks, I don't recall him ever attacking anyone
v_nome: I like the theory that he's just there to be cheerleader for Sailor Moon who has self esteem issues but immense power, then has to GTFO before he gets hurt
OldUncleDan: Honestly, half of the reason Usagi has the self-esteem issues she does is because of how Luna treats her!
niccus: i think they ran out of AC finally
ChroniclerC: You're also starting to clip his supply line for back stuff.
CaptainSpam: Meanwhile, your clever plan to distract them with the right side was a success!
SquareDotCube: could probably fire your other spores on the power node behind that line of turrets
CaptainSpam: Maybe take more of the top and attack from two angles?
BrainBetter: No destroy! Only construct!
TehAmelie: haha, they left the CC itself undefended
CaptainSpam: Doin' great, right side, doin' great.
TehAmelie: guess we could speed up now
CaptainSpam: Satisfying!
TehAmelie: so many spores. i better not let my allergic cousin see this
Mangledpixel: o7
IanAllenBird: lrrBartleby
LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Please give your clips descriptive names if you want them to be seen!)
BusTed: tqsClap
drexciya808: lrrBartleby
Invitare: what about Particle Fleet..?
drexciya808: let’s reload some 5PS5 energy
TehAmelie: remember to stretch your creeper every hour
tdapenguin: Breaktime!
RealGamerCow: I love my panalysts mug so much
TehAmelie: hi again!
Invitare: what hole does the square brush go in?
TehAmelie: i spent so many hours making a perfectly flat map covered in verdant woods that was annihilated by a flood within 10 minutes
ArtDecoSunburn: Oh, SimCity 2000 and AoEII and their maps. So much forced cliff perspective.
ArtDecoSunburn: @TehAmelie Floods are the hidden norm of SC2K.
RealGamerCow: That's deeep
TehAmelie: the big difference i think is the vegetation being destroyed
SaxPython: SabaPing
Invitare: you have an anti creeper barrier
goatprince: u got plany of time
Invitare: oh but not in your main base
TehAmelie: it's all automated down here anyway, we're watching this from orbit (i think)
RealGamerCow: Oh that wave
Nathade: what about the other side of the map, can you build there too? To attack the creeper from both sides
e_bloc: its body horror eventually
couchboyj: Its mostly dead red blood cells, so literally was part of your body
IanAllenBird: anything can be body horror if you imagine hard enough
RealGamerCow: Decoy right side go!
OldUncleDan: Or port over the red stuff and make a mini gate thingy.
OldUncleDan: mini rift.
Nathade: oh so only one command node (equivalent) on CW4 (or this map)?
e_bloc watched 120 consecutive streams and sparked a watch streak!
Dalrint: What's the black stuff?
OldUncleDan: Black area is a no-fly zone.
TehAmelie: don't curse the darkness, build a beacon!
e_bloc: be a beacon
Mazrae: How is the othersides anti creep
dumbo3k: I like the waves
Garfman314: it's hard to see the network through the depth
MrTeaAndTea: Energy gen:95, used:6, you may afford a couple more turrents
TehAmelie: the amount of anticreeper here does make me worry the creeper will learn to invert it back. . .
mizzytastic: oooh, it was Paul's original Creeper World stream that got me into these games
Dalrint: In the story you're the only human alive so they are definitely automated.
RealGamerCow: Some mf'ers are always trying to snipe uphill
IanAllenBird: whoops
Anubis169: You must construct additional pile ons :P
Dalrint: How's the other side look?
ekimekim: can we unflatten the AC? i can't really tell what's happening anymore
ekimekim: thanks

OldUncleDan: Porter over the Red stuff and make a M-Rift on the other side?
Garfman314: you close enough for a nullifier?
v_nome nullifies
Mazrae: Null
TehAmelie: a little nullifier wubstep always livens up the campaign
LesBeauxPlastiques: the creeper world serues slaps
SquareDotCube: we got a Finnish sandwich going on
TheAinMAP: lrrFINE
iris_of_ether: I need to make the Canada maple pastry recipe linked off the Timberborn website...
TehAmelie: the fluif physics here feel like they were not made for an annihilation wall of this magnitude
KeytarCat: I do need water for my craps, thanks for the reminder
Dalrint: It did have a 1.0 release
Cptasparagus: yeah the recent 1.0 was intended to kind of flesh out the buildings and mechanics
Cptasparagus: I think the next things are just other factions
OldUncleDan: They got rid of the District System? I may need to get back into the game.
Athelgar: I really like DSP
Cptasparagus: @OldUncleDan no its still there, I have only played a bit since 1.0 but there were still district intersections
RatherLargeToad: casual orbital bombardment
iris_of_ether: lrrCOW
RealGamerCow: Or worse, dropping things from orbit
TehAmelie: i love Iron Sky. should watch it again.
CrossXhunteR: i've now looked at this game for all of 15 seconds and it all makes sense
RatherLargeToad: we use guns in all of our construction
iris_of_ether: It is America
RAICx: A teammate of mine worked on the sfx of iron sky!
Garfman314: i think you got rid of all the creeper
RatherLargeToad: a Mir laser
iris_of_ether: LasMir
Juliamon: This world: totally saved
BrainBetter: Fill this level with cream?
RatherLargeToad: and sticky
niccus: just a commander and a lake of white fluid
BusTed: dusts hands
BrainBetter: A lovely volcano meringue.
SquareDotCube: "The biodiversity might be dead, but we've made the planet highly anti-creeper"
Mai_Andra: now we just need anti-anticreeper to get our land back...
Invitare: You can design your own ships
OldUncleDan: PF:E is highly underrated.
Unpronounceable: Is there one you'd recommend over the others?
TehAmelie: it's how i picture the sequel to Project Hail Mary, where they'll need an astrophage-phage-phage
iris_of_ether: I've been there
RealGamerCow: That game for me is DCSS, it's a good reset game
SarkhanGluedBackTogether: is an indie game a hot dog?
RealGamerCow: I do a few runs in stone soup, get hosed on a deep run, then want to put it down
Ashmantle: <3
shendaras: There's a fun series of videos on youtube from the creator of the game of it being developed which were neat to watch
RatherLargeToad: yay stuff!

RatherLargeToad: looks like something called “Legend of the Round Table”
EvilBadman: RIPerooni Destiny 2
Dread_Pirate_Westley: It's up.
Juliamon: Unfortunately some of the biggest news probably dodged it
Mai_Andra: I believe Adam's thing at ComboBreaker is Saturday night.
Mai_Andra: GRD Break
Juliamon: We still have the command for it :P
RealGamerCow: I believe Felix Kramer, friend of LRR, is involved with snatch and grab
