The Flood / Re: So I'm working on a bit of a project here... Thoughts?
« on: September 14, 2014, 03:25:40 AM »
This is going to be my pitch to the first super intense REAL virtual reality developer that impresses me with their technology.

The pitch
Imagine you are in one of the old, large, spacemanesque underwater exploration suits. The one like in The Spongebob Movie.  You are exploring when you accidentally tumble down a rather steep and deep drop off into deeper ocean than you wanted to. You look up to grab the rope to climb up only to see it tumble down into your hands. The oxygen pump is still connected, but who knows how long that has left? You flip on your light. You know that while treacherous and time consuming, you could probably climb back up the sandy drop off and get to your anchor, then use that to climb back into your boat. Or, you could explore and try to find an alternative means.

You climb the drop off
Attempts to climb are slow, and the heavy suit only makes it harder. However, you are still able to make steady progress. Looking around as you climb, you notice little eyes in the darkness watching you. You decide to ignore them and focus on climbing. After a while you hear water rushing and feel a great smack in your side as one of them crashed into you, knocking you off the side of the drop off. You tumble back to the sand and look up to face your attacker. None can be seen. You peer into the dark abyss and see naught but the eyes just out of any real view staring back at you. You resume your climbing, but now watching more intently around you in case of another attack. Your lights seem to keep them away, but they are dimming. You are losing power. You barely make it to the top as your lights run out... From there, what happens is only between me and a future developer =P
You go exploring
You look around. Surely climbing up that drop off would be difficult, since it's almost pure sand. Maybe you can find a better climbing surface? Or perhaps a part of the drop off that is less steep and more accommodating to your heavy suit? You traverse the floor, moving between rocks and undersea foliage. Things are strangely quiet, and there is a lack of life. Then, you start to see eyes in the darkness. Not close enough to discern any real details about their owners, but their eyes definitely reflect in your light. You press on, however, undeterred. Probably nothing to worry about. You have to get out of here. You keep following the wall until you come across a large stone column in the middle of the ocean. Peculiar. You look closer at it and see strange carvings of an ancient civilization. Intrigued, you press on to just barely see a structure in the distance... The eyes are drawing nearer, though, and your lights are dimming. They seem to close in more and more as the lights dim. What happens next is between me and a future developer =P


Thoughts?
That looks like a screenshot from Slender.
While I'm glad to have this be compared to that, it is an image I made myself just a bit ago in Blender.

You do a good job of living up to the "dumb" in your name.
Was there ever any doubt?

Bumping my own thread is different.
Also I see what you're trying to do, but no one gives a shit if you have every post on the front page.
Too late to matter.

What do you find is the preferred method of putting cucumbers, rubber duckies, and vaseline into a bag without anyone noticing?

Not that I'd have to or anything >.>

« on: August 27, 2014, 02:50:19 AM »
Looking back, I feel pretty dumb for trying to impress all these girls I fell for in High School.
I saw afterward that they weren't right for me all along,
so I'm glad I didn't get into something I'd regret.


You're one of the lucky ones...

Heyell no. I want the internet around for a LONG time. It's a great way for the free spread of information.

Besides, how else are we going to share funny pictures of cats to millions of people at a time?

Had a customer come in once who was obviously homeless. She was trying to buy a portable dvd player. Felt really sorry for her, but couldn't help thinking, "If you have the money for a DVD player, why u no has money for new clothing?

I once had a dream I was an owl. I was terrified of getting my rabies shot for some reason... Flew around my house avoiding capture and inevitable rabies shot.
