i was just ctrl+v-ing for this thread! thanks for making one. it's a fun little game. the appeal, i think, comes from media that extends beyond what's present in the game which i find very interesting. similar to touhou in a way, where the most interesting or "gripping" content comes from extrapolations made by the fandom.
votv frustrates me because this game was setup to be Signal simulator with its themes of extraterrestrial/cosmic horror fully explored, even the Innawoods bit of it could add a bit of a superstitious stint to it.
maybe it's just me but annoying mannequins and the Mary Sue catfish aliens, ESPECIALLY the fricking catfish aliens do not fully realise that idea
like the game doesn't know if it wants to be funny or actually pants-shittingly terrifying, not that funny/scary aren't exclusive to each other but it needs to be the idea from the start, this game feels like the developer just kinda threw whatever was on his mind at the moment at a wall and saw what stuck
i don't hate the game, ill probably buy it when it gets completed, but the amount of thematic whiplash I get while playing just makes me disappointed because for all the stuff in this game that actually lands there's also parts of it that just feel like wasted potential
>the developer just kinda threw whatever was on his mind at the moment at a wall and saw what stuck
yeah, and I don't mind that necessarily, though it's not immediately obvious from the get go. my experience with votv was wandering in not expecting a whole lot and not getting a whole lot back. it wasn't until i started frequenting the threads that i started to understand the appeal, which is a little backwards.
i checked the wiki of the game for spoilers and found that i wasn't really missing all that much. most of the action happens in the woods anyway. it was a little disappointing! getting my processor to level three and decrypting a signal that contained a string of numbers was so exciting, but then i learned that the decryption actually led to nothing. it was just random. a little disappointing.
we've definitely reached a point where the goofy meme shit has overtaken the atmosphere and spooks
I could enjoy it either way but it would have been more unique if the spook was more prominent
So these aliens steal my ATV for a day, eat all my food if left unattended, and constantly prank me. But if I dare to touch their box or borrow their lamp they will beat the shit out of me?
Frick these hypocrites, I'm shredding your lamp every day.
You can tell its bait whenever they seethe about the arirals. Every form of alien or entity cannot be harmed, and fricks you up. Some outright instakill you. Shitters and baiters only talk about the catgirl aliens who are barely in the game.
>Some outright instakill you
I'm on day 22 and I have yet to see anything that even damages you and I have tanked an explosion to the face, tried to kill myself by jumping off the tower, and have been in more high-speed stunt accidents than Evel Knieval
Rufus can kill you, but only if you're dumb enough to spawn it in, the tutorial-thing can also kill you, Antibreather is planned to kill you later on, the yellow wisps can and will rip you apart, mannequins can do it if you set them on fire, and Bad Sun and the Evil can both kill you.
Nose also intends to add a lot more stuff capable of murdering you in later updates - last thread even detailed one of them in action.
How about you explain the joke alien that only shows up when you type in a command you'd never discover on your own and has nothing in the game associated with him.
After playing this and seeing the Dam game concept art from the guy who had the weird dream, would signal simulator x Iron lung be a good gameplay concept?
Was thinking of setting it on a decommissioned oil rig, you would monitor deep sea sounds and and also use a remote sub to collect shit and sell stuff, add to that exploring the rig itself.
As dream guy, i really like this idea. Them old rusty industrial infrastructure in the middle of a vast ocean is prime scares. only so many hiding places and Inescapable if something goes bad unless you wanna brave the waters.

I have had recurring nightmares about being lost/trapped in a ship graveyard.
Some of the worst about one that's not grounded but semi-afloat, being trapped in a groaning, screeching tangle of rusted metal below the surface, trying to crawl, climb and swim from air pocket to air pocket and never knowing if the hulk I am currently in houses something that wants to kill me, or will flood, or simply detach from the mass and sink deep into the ocean with me still trapped inside.
Needless to say, an atmospheric horror game about that sounds radical.
If you can actually walk around the entire rig it would be kino
i would say use an actual submarine instead of a drone, just so you can have events where you come back to find the rig has changed
A couple threads ago i posted some drawings based on a dream i had about some water based locations. I have since drawn some more non dream based expansions on the idea.

what if instead of an oil rig it was some aging research vessel instead?
say some company has sent you out on a one-man operation due to budgeting reasons and is tasking you with monitoring sounds in a given region.
maybe even give the player the ability to pilot the ship or something
Research vessel like that feels too mobile. Key with these sorts of horror games is being unable to easily frick off when things go south, relying on others to get you out of the situation instead.
If you could pilot the boat, then that removes a few levels of fear.
Theoretically if it were an AI controlled research vessel then you could have the player not control it, and you could even have segments like the AI goes haywire and takes you somewhere else.
Still, I prefer the idea of a little oil rig or Big Shell or whatever facility
You could make it so that its actually an illegal operation, like the rig was decommissioned but you have a private benefactor that wants something from there, would also tie in to gameplay mechanics to make supplies more scarce as you would need to shipped stuff narco sub style.

Reason to be on the rig alone is either a private party on an abandoned rig, a low budget research team on a repurposed one, or maybe a site evaluator looking at the facilities and prospect of restarting operations after a disaster that shut it down before.
>or maybe a site evaluator looking at the facilities and prospect of restarting operations after a disaster that shut it down before.
Sounds a bit like INFRA
oil rig would be a cool indie horror game location but you'd need a reason to be there alone
also what dam game?
You could make it so that its actually an illegal operation, like the rig was decommissioned but you have a private benefactor that wants something from there, would also tie in to gameplay mechanics to make supplies more scarce as you would need to shipped stuff narco sub style.
This is very close to the concept behind Stasis: Bone Totem (an extremely good horror adventure puzzle game), though its focus is more on sea horror, and eventually shifts locale from the oil rig.
As dream guy, i really like this idea. Them old rusty industrial infrastructure in the middle of a vast ocean is prime scares. only so many hiding places and Inescapable if something goes bad unless you wanna brave the waters.
i would love to be able to choose between abandoned oil rig and old underwater base but still get the sameish events
there was a guide in last thread about how to steal stuff from the arirs. basically, the arirs activate once an object is too far away from its "spawn point". by moving the object, saving, then reloading, you set a new spawn point for that object.
That sound like a b***h to do. At least the lamp is extremely useful though, require no fuel but wouldn't it in theory possibly cause a future cat attack if you ever just knock it too far one day? Like you can't ever actively explore in the darkness with it. Stealing the cat bed might be more useful, more so if the feeding thing is linked to the bed and not the location.
>out driving in the ATV on the path >always pass the shitty sattelite phone booth that's out there >mostly just for lost hikers or something >it starts ringing
Seems like Nose is getting that fitness system out soon. I know he joked about adding fitness for lower stamina drain as well as possibly adding enhanced throwing and lifting when you workout in the game.
>everyone is having cool dreams about swamps and spooky things >last night i dreamt about getting short arir gf >dream ended with her begging me to come with her because their vacation ended >didn't get a chance to answer
There's going to be some massive dissonance in my head if the Short actually turns out to be a c**t. I think I've sabotaged myself into being unable to fight her.
I watched her get flustered over purring, bros...
shorts have developed the technology to project into human dreams, her job was just to stop you from falling for the talls "uplifting" plans for humanity but she fell in love.
stop drinking unfiltered tapwater immediately, you may still have a chance to save yourself from degenerating into a lower, barely sapient lifeform called the lesser ariral poster (only able to string together simple, ariral related sentences)
>feral little monster short hidden in a run down swamp shack >hisses and yowls if you try and get even close to the shack >will blast you away with a grav pulse if you try and get too close >have to tame her by hucking shrimp through a hole in the roof
I finally investigated a blip and it turned out to be something. Found a couple bones on the ground, picked them up and then a wooden inverted cross staked into the ground started following me like the mannequins do. Gave me some chills.
I still think there needs to be an upgrade for the ATV that lets you see X:Y while driving around, or letting you hold your map out while driving. If shit's in the outer perimeter I don't even both trying to find it, only blips I go after are walking distance.
You can pin the map to the atv with a hammer and nail.
It's never come off. Extremely useful while driving. Should probably save first, some people have been sent into low earth orbit trying.
I saw an anon suggest that and I tried it, but I often run into a bug where the map won't update X:Y at all when I'm holding it in my hand. Sometimes equipping/unequipping fixes it, sometimes I need to reload a save. Whenever I tried to nail it to the ATV it would bug out and not update X:Y, I figured it just wouldn't update while not held but if it works for you I'll try it again.
updated dam map including ideas from that one anon's map. added a small rig off the coast. Possibly each other day you get tasked to stay in either the dam, marsh or rig for the night in order to do menial tasks.
another day another gift of aquatic goodness.
This ones version of the transformers would be the still halfway functioning turbines in the dam, where they will occasionally get something clogged in them, usually just random branches and shit making its way through the filters, othertimes a rotting mass of meat.
the broken ship is full of old papers detailing an incredibly mundane journey until they simply stop, but in the locked and somehow still sealed up helm theres a single computer you can drag back to base and power on to get a few blurry photos of moments before their gruesome end. You receive 5 points and a legal threat from the ships owners that if you ever release this they will ruin you.
The dam tasks might be monitoring output graphs and correcting for errors(dumb math minigame), and listening to/processing audio logs from the monitoring equipment which are usually just mundane and sometimes ooky spooky
The rig tasks might be throwing out trap pots to monitor fish populations, maybe running up down and around the rig doing some kind of maintenance task to keep it from collapsing into the bay, big monstrous diesel generator powering the thing would give for a nice background drone to the location, and horrifying moments when it sputters out in the middle of the night leaving you on the pitch black open sea.
The marsh I guess would be setting up game cameras, clearing out brush blocking streams, trying to not get eaten by bigfoot, doing sick ass jumps in your airboat.
Would def love to play in that setting. Always liked dam settings in videogames
I love how this game inspires more gamemaking. That's a sign of quality. Art should inspire art.
Agreed. Even if votv doesnt hit the mark for everyone, there is def interest in the premise. I can imagine there will be more games like this over time.
Def been the game that has consumed me the most this year. Been checking the updates channel and I still like the direction it is going in. I know they going to do a full map overhaul as well as a full asset rework over time. As well as a lot more entities. But it seems like Nose is implementing the rest of the systems he wants to see in the game first.
I think it'll be hilarious if something actually comes of all these ideas. Voices of the Void is effectively a fangame, so it getting its own fangame would just be funny.
Nah, it could never be that I think. Snoot Game is half spite half shitpost, while this would be out of a genuine enjoyment of the concept of votv.
Anyway you bringing up snoot game has me imagining a shitpost vn where you're the human transfer student at an ariral high school and you can date a short on one route and help her with a school shooting targeting the talls
Sure, plenty of people don't like some parts of votv and want to change parts of that and do what the dev refuses to. But that still comes from a place of love, of wanting something that you enjoyed on some level to be even better. Meanwhile GVH was something that appealed to no one on any level besides maybe wanting to frick dinos. I hope that makes sense, it's 5AM and I'm a bit delirious

I don't mind the cats, hell they can kinda be funny in fan art and for the most part stay near Papa and leave you alone ingame. I mostly sad that the dev seem to treat the game less like a game and more of a place where he can shitpost models in and use it as a sandbox. 6.0 broke so much shit which would been fine as he also added a ton of new shit. My issue is a lot of bugs that existed since 6.0 are still fricking there. He isn't improving the game as much as he just layering on top of it. Hell think he completely abandoned the green box and tile thing as he doesn't give the slightest of fricks that one of the coolest effect just doesn't work most of the time. Reward may as well be an empty box as far as he seem to care. Is it wrong of me to say I am a fan of the game but unironically wish the dev got replaced with someone more competence?

If you replaced Nose, you wouldn't get VOTV or anything at all. His unique blend of autistic insanity is the sole reason this isn't another Signal Sim situation.
start tutorial, it's in like the first room. He's just disappointed the secret wasn't as cool as he thought it would be.
But mileage may vary, try it out yourself.
Climbing exist so it far easier now to get up there. Before you gotta have the table slanted the long way just to reach, now you can just jump from the table while it is flat on the ground and jump again mid-air against the upper floor to just climb up. So there isn't a reason to not just see it for yourself with how easy it is now.
Yea, also work for all fences in the main game as well with the exception of the outer-most fence. So Stonehenge, bunker and the new trees you no longer need to ATV seat into. Also require to know how to climb for the newer nightmares. Remember to un-crouch after a climb as it seem impossible to climb while in that state.
I just bought a shelf and stuck my level 0s and 1s on that. Never again, I lost a frick load after an event caused most to get destroyed.
Get a drive rack for your own sake.
I kinda autistic OCD in terms of video games but not to that extreme. I generally place them on the floor using the grid of the tiles but I don't place them perfectly knowing I just going to send them off anyway. I generally keep 2-3 days worth of backups in case I decide to frick off elsewhere.
If you have the cats fully based out then they will have two powerwashers (virtually worthless though), just buy a mop from the store. It is worth it. Don't "upgrade" the bucket though it hold less water. It just an option to look nicer.
The price is excessive, but it's more efectice at cleaning and has a seemingly infinite amout of water it can hold, I cleaned the roof, outside walls and bunker without needing to resoak it.

This happens when you didn't fully remove the stain. It will load in looking like a full stain but the moment you go to clean it it goes back to where you left it last time.

don't use while held in hand, hold it a full meter in front of you and drag it around
It's also buggy too, I filled the mop bucket with water for the mop and when I reloaded the save the mop bucket had no water, couldn't be interacted with, and had no collision. It was stuck where I left it until it teleported to the grass outside the big window, where I still can't do anything to it.
Animal skull, Demon Core, G-mod gun, cat plushes and chulutu guy plush are the most interesting. If you do animal skull play for a bit, don't just save and reload else you forever lose out on the event.
>don't just save and reload else you forever lose out on the event.
You can find the skull again qith the metal detector.
So... Can humans reproduce with Arirals?
maybe, cucumbers and octopus reproduction has never been theorized, tested, or researched in any capacity. So arir/human hybridization is like schrödinger's womb.

Think of it like My Summer Car, but with processing space signals in a spooky forest instead of building a car. You should play it as blindly as possible, only coming to these threads to ask for technical help if you get stuck.
Regardless, I was spoiled quite a bit by the threads and still really enjoyed it. There's a lot to discover for a "demo".

Downloaded the game but it felt like i'm a chinese kid assembling it's toy so i can maybe have fun with it. Is it supposed to feel like that? The signal machine having 30 sec cooldown also is a major turnoff...
yes kind ofit's very slow and comfy, not action 24/7. Lots of people just enjoy decorating their shitty base in the downtime between stuff actually happening.
Think of it as more like, truck simulator or some other autistic sim game with horror elements, rather than a genuine horror game.

the cat aliens killed and I mean absolutely killed any interest I had in this game. some dude's furry OC twitter race does not make for a compelling situation when up to this point it had been built on tension and fear and the promise of a payoff. the payoff being uwu cute snilly widdol guys that just wanna hug is stupid. even basic b***h greys would have been more interesting. the weirdly parasitic relationship between devs and streamers also seems to have completely altered the tone of the game. hate this shit
it stopped being scary and turned into zoomer bait after a while. so much shit going on and trying to watch anyone play it has the streamer constantly fending off back seaters or whatever Joel does
I agree but >the weirdly parasitic relationship between devs and streamers also seems to have completely altered the tone of the game
The catgirl aliens have nothing to do with the streamer in question. They are the dev's creation.

Anyone else find the Arirals really fricking obnoxiously written?
They're a minority of bougies who are oh so overpowered and superior AND they want to uplift + pacify us without our consent as pretext to invade and colonize on the basis of "you owe us", which Nose seems to think is a good thing. BUT WAIT, THEN you learn their homeworld's head is having a gun pointed at it, they have the majority population in squalor and you'd think that's it, there's the nuance, the Talls are there to filter out people who scream about furries and mary sues and these Shorts are the real heroes, but NO they're all insufferable butthole militiants who would destroy Earth outright if they got mad.
It fricking blows dude
Talls are perfectly fine with Earth - they just don't want us getting eaten by a cosmic horror by us being stupid. Shorts are basically just North Korea.
They still cross the line the moment they introduce chemicals to the water without asking.
I'd try Uplift Juice(tm) if given it as a prescription, but the second it's roofied to the collective population without asking? That's grounds for me take your shit and feed myself with my own hands, buddy
despite suffering the adverse effects of severe toxoplasmosis infection I can still say yes ariral lore is 99% dogshit, and I'd hazard the guess even the majority of gato sexo posters dislike it, they just sort of ignore it/don't care about lore
I got like 30 hours of spooky horror signal vidya and THEN I got a boatload of alien catgirl shenanigans with more to come, thats like double win in my book.
I feel like this is simply the unspoken consensus to all who are at all aware of their actual lore, when it was revealed people certainly did shit on it for threads, I don't really remember any positive posts about it.
For me it's less of the inane lore and more of a game being a vehicle for Nose's cringe wish fulfillment OC wank.
I'm okay with games having furry-adjacent characters when they organically fit the world, but in VotV arirals are anything but that. They collect every Mary Sue red flag that tumblr OCtards learned to avoid a decade ago. If we get in the lore, it immediately showcases how the OC wank not even remotely subtle, across the entire board:
Powerwank: they're unkillable, have hyper-deadly guns, mind-boggling tech but also suuuper strong even without tech shit.
Better-than-you wank: The classic 'I'm cute therefore I'm better than you' kind, with shorts serving as a good backdrop for them. They regularly abuse you but you're supposed to forgive them because they're cute and they're 'just playing'/'it's a prank, bro'.
Coomer/waifu wank: Tall space catgirls except with axolotl flair and multiple pseudo-boobs, enough said.
Progressive wank: LOOK AT HOW PROGRESSIVE I AM BY DREAMING UP A FEMALE-DOMINATED SOCIETY! ACKTUALLY I EVEN ADDED A FUTA GENDER, MY TASTE IS IMMACULATE!!1
All in all, Nose clearly hasn't been bullied (harshly criticized, beaten within inch of his life, force-fed his own arms, sent a strongly-worded letter, pick whichever appropriate) enough to actually start developing a proper taste and subtlety. And by that I mean rub braincells together for long enough to realize that shoving his fetish shit into a game posing as something else may not be the best move.
agreed on all points more or less except the progressive thing, they aren't mostly female and futa because of feminism my friend and it's kind of funny you took it that way
>the progressive thing
I observed thirdies assuming full-package futa is trans-supportive.
Could easily be classic futatroony fetish + my-waifu-is-a-queen-btw powerwank, too.

It's the "I like benis and bagina but I don't want to be stuck with just one" fetishism. With a little super waifuism.
Furries did this with the original lore for taur types back in the day, they were all herms and were all perfect right down to the hormonal balance.
a lot of stuff from that doc that got leaked isn't up to date from what I remember if we're being fair, the dudes who ferry question to the discord have posted some stuff from nose that makes them seem less OP
>LOOK AT HOW PROGRESSIVE I AM BY DREAMING UP A FEMALE-DOMINATED SOCIETY!
Pretty sure they're a matriarch because the dev is a coomer and thinks its hot
You have seen the animations he makes in his free time, right?

This is absolutely not the case. iirc the lore doc didn't say anything about vacuum decay and indis, two of the most OP things Arir have. all of that came from the dev's posts
Your verdict is a bit harsh, but I agree, Nose clearly doesn't care. Some call it based, but personally, I don't see anything based about being inconsiderate and taking the players to your magical realm.

>the dudes who ferry question to the discord have posted some stuff from nose that makes them seem less OP
Not by a lot. And this doesn't really matter. What does matters is how they are presented in the game. Arirals are still cutesy, obnoxious, unkillable, and account for most of alien activity and about half the easter eggs in the game. Of course, this might/will change in the future, but I judge things by how they are at the moment, and will adjust my opinions as the game develops.
im sorry to say this is completely delusional, nose fricking loves them beyond all else, the catgirls weren't just added to the game, the game was added to the catgirls, literally.
The original name suggestion by nose was signal simulator ariral edition
one of the next big features nose keeps teasing is going to make them even more prominent even, however there might be some light at the end of the tunnel. They will have a reputation system of sorts. We don't know exactly what it means but maybe there will be a path where if you don't treat them like your alien catwives they won't be wacky but genuinely spooky.
But I wouldn't hold my breath, I'm more expecting there to be the current state of them the most hostile they'll ever be.
Though discordanon could ask nose if it's gonna be positive only or if there's gonna be major content for negative interactions too.
She has one of those, too, by the looks of it. I like to imagine Arirals as biologically monogender, with a repurposed clitoris capable of fertilization and internal testes. It's just nice to imagine it shlicking out of their labia and stabbing into something.
>Be Kel >Be half asleep in bed >Suddenly you hear footsteps belonging to something you can't see >Close your eyes and pretend it's not there >Suddenly your bed is weighed down a lot more >Something starts stroking your hair >You dare to take a peek but it's still invisible
wat do
God, why is he making so many of them? 3 normal + 3 super secret was okay, but this is too much. At this point, I want to gather them just to throw them away so they don't litter the map.
I thought they were fine until he made the orange one require a flying machine. Why the frick the drone pushing it off seem unacceptable? I fricking clearly know where it is, why does it matter how I choose to get it? A lot of the game is just getting annoying and if he ever remove the flying glitch I argue even unplayable if he intend people to be able to get on top of powerlines for everything.
Why can't I climb?
un-crouch and jump to jump again mid-air against the wall/fence. If the wall is too high the game simply won't let you. Outer most fence is taller than it seems but all of the inner fences you should be able to climb.
>theoretically you could use a hook to scale the invisible wall to grab the orange-blue plush
In theory I kinda see that maybe working but I feel it is a bit too far from the wall to do that. If you are willing and have time to burn you can try it to see if it works.
You say that but with every update he abandon old stuff yet expect people to still want to play. Like frick new players I guess. The green box is still fricking broken making the tiles completely useless. Is it wrong of me to want a complete experience in a single package instead of possibly jumping through multiple versions just to see everything?
The Tall's currently aren't, but they used to be
Female Arir's are stronger and larger than the others, so they used to rule. Before Argemia all Arir were united under Argemia's mother, but Argemia killed her and started the civil war
>See this post >Its almost word for word what I typed yesterday >But not exactly >Causes me to question whether the post was ever my doing to begin with
Ahh, now this is horror
I started the game last night while drunk, I assume the energy consumption being at 100% is stopping me from processing my signal? I don't know what I'm doing but it just gives me an error ding when I try to process once the signal is imported into the console. Please understand I am moronic.
Yes. Upgrading the computer level is necessary to get the message from most cryptic signals, but it also makes Bao expect more from you so for now it's best to upgrade other things before it.
Yeah, for now just collect signals and bag and sell trash. Buy an item box (bottom of the essentials tab) for 10 credits, the drone can pick this up just like drive boxes.
make sure you save a copy of every signal you find onto your computer so you can process them later when you gain the ability to do so
you wouldn't want to lose a half translated signal to Dr Bao just because you didn't have the processing level required, would you?
I highly suggest upgrading your detector sensitivity, and your download speed before touching the computer power.
Once you do upgrade it I would put more points into computer speed so your signal processing takes less time
The other ones are more or less convenience.

Kind of.
I wonder how heat resistant the suits are, Travis Touchdown could probably kick all their asses if he could rely on his beam katana and wrestling moves.
This was during a development stream and I was asleep, so unfortunately it was something he showed on video and not in text form. Here's what he said before that though
Assuming you're fighting a war, i dont think holding down the enemy soldiers for multiple days straight until they die of dehydration is a viable strategy

>all natural languages fricking suck dick with their bizarre rules and nonsensical exceptions
Yeah, I hear you. I've been trying to learn Polish and it's been a nightmare.
Which is funny, given that the drone is about a ten minute walk far away actually
But yeah, realistically these jobs are done in teams and with weekends off where you go home
i was just ctrl+v-ing for this thread! thanks for making one. it's a fun little game. the appeal, i think, comes from media that extends beyond what's present in the game which i find very interesting. similar to touhou in a way, where the most interesting or "gripping" content comes from extrapolations made by the fandom.
votv frustrates me because this game was setup to be Signal simulator with its themes of extraterrestrial/cosmic horror fully explored, even the Innawoods bit of it could add a bit of a superstitious stint to it.
maybe it's just me but annoying mannequins and the Mary Sue catfish aliens, ESPECIALLY the fricking catfish aliens do not fully realise that idea
like the game doesn't know if it wants to be funny or actually pants-shittingly terrifying, not that funny/scary aren't exclusive to each other but it needs to be the idea from the start, this game feels like the developer just kinda threw whatever was on his mind at the moment at a wall and saw what stuck
i don't hate the game, ill probably buy it when it gets completed, but the amount of thematic whiplash I get while playing just makes me disappointed because for all the stuff in this game that actually lands there's also parts of it that just feel like wasted potential
>the developer just kinda threw whatever was on his mind at the moment at a wall and saw what stuck
yeah, and I don't mind that necessarily, though it's not immediately obvious from the get go. my experience with votv was wandering in not expecting a whole lot and not getting a whole lot back. it wasn't until i started frequenting the threads that i started to understand the appeal, which is a little backwards.
i checked the wiki of the game for spoilers and found that i wasn't really missing all that much. most of the action happens in the woods anyway. it was a little disappointing! getting my processor to level three and decrypting a signal that contained a string of numbers was so exciting, but then i learned that the decryption actually led to nothing. it was just random. a little disappointing.

>Arirals land on earth, setting up campfire and building treehouse
>hear a loud "YAAAAAAH" in the distance
>maybe it's just me

Yeah.
we've definitely reached a point where the goofy meme shit has overtaken the atmosphere and spooks
I could enjoy it either way but it would have been more unique if the spook was more prominent
I feel like this is exactly the kind of game AI would improve, as it could be ordered to wrangle these things into something cohesive.
Don't purge it. Don't believe his lies.
It's okay, I keep exported copies of everything I find interesting. They'll never know.
So these aliens steal my ATV for a day, eat all my food if left unattended, and constantly prank me. But if I dare to touch their box or borrow their lamp they will beat the shit out of me?
Frick these hypocrites, I'm shredding your lamp every day.
I mean they do let you take alot of stuff from their treehouse/picnic but you fricking tell em dude shred that shit
does the lamp respawn after you shred it?
sounds like a good trashmaxxing method
If you shred it it'll be gone until the next day. Once a day doesn't make it too good for trashmaxxing.
There's a car now?
You can tell its bait whenever they seethe about the arirals. Every form of alien or entity cannot be harmed, and fricks you up. Some outright instakill you. Shitters and baiters only talk about the catgirl aliens who are barely in the game.
>Some outright instakill you
I'm on day 22 and I have yet to see anything that even damages you and I have tanked an explosion to the face, tried to kill myself by jumping off the tower, and have been in more high-speed stunt accidents than Evel Knieval
Rufus can kill you, but only if you're dumb enough to spawn it in, the tutorial-thing can also kill you, Antibreather is planned to kill you later on, the yellow wisps can and will rip you apart, mannequins can do it if you set them on fire, and Bad Sun and the Evil can both kill you.
Nose also intends to add a lot more stuff capable of murdering you in later updates - last thread even detailed one of them in action.
Explain Rufus moron
How about you explain the joke alien that only shows up when you type in a command you'd never discover on your own and has nothing in the game associated with him.
It's funny too, considering the ariral "act" of the game is now over. We're in the rozital act now.
I'll believe it when I see it. No, a single 2 part Rozital event barely counts, even if it's awesome.
Okay so camoflaging the entire roof is too tedious and expensive, so I'm going to use this place as a doomsday bunker instead.

After playing this and seeing the Dam game concept art from the guy who had the weird dream, would signal simulator x Iron lung be a good gameplay concept?
Was thinking of setting it on a decommissioned oil rig, you would monitor deep sea sounds and and also use a remote sub to collect shit and sell stuff, add to that exploring the rig itself.
As dream guy, i really like this idea. Them old rusty industrial infrastructure in the middle of a vast ocean is prime scares. only so many hiding places and Inescapable if something goes bad unless you wanna brave the waters.
I have had recurring nightmares about being lost/trapped in a ship graveyard.
Some of the worst about one that's not grounded but semi-afloat, being trapped in a groaning, screeching tangle of rusted metal below the surface, trying to crawl, climb and swim from air pocket to air pocket and never knowing if the hulk I am currently in houses something that wants to kill me, or will flood, or simply detach from the mass and sink deep into the ocean with me still trapped inside.
Needless to say, an atmospheric horror game about that sounds radical.
If you can actually walk around the entire rig it would be kino
i would say use an actual submarine instead of a drone, just so you can have events where you come back to find the rig has changed
No sub, just a diving suit
oil rig would be a cool indie horror game location but you'd need a reason to be there alone
also what dam game?
A couple threads ago i posted some drawings based on a dream i had about some water based locations. I have since drawn some more non dream based expansions on the idea.
what if instead of an oil rig it was some aging research vessel instead?
say some company has sent you out on a one-man operation due to budgeting reasons and is tasking you with monitoring sounds in a given region.
maybe even give the player the ability to pilot the ship or something
Ever seen an RP Flip? its like a long research boat/sub thing that sinks the front half in order to become a free floating little research platform.
Research vessel like that feels too mobile. Key with these sorts of horror games is being unable to easily frick off when things go south, relying on others to get you out of the situation instead.
If you could pilot the boat, then that removes a few levels of fear.
Theoretically if it were an AI controlled research vessel then you could have the player not control it, and you could even have segments like the AI goes haywire and takes you somewhere else.
Still, I prefer the idea of a little oil rig or Big Shell or whatever facility
You could make it so that its actually an illegal operation, like the rig was decommissioned but you have a private benefactor that wants something from there, would also tie in to gameplay mechanics to make supplies more scarce as you would need to shipped stuff narco sub style.
Reason to be on the rig alone is either a private party on an abandoned rig, a low budget research team on a repurposed one, or maybe a site evaluator looking at the facilities and prospect of restarting operations after a disaster that shut it down before.
>or maybe a site evaluator looking at the facilities and prospect of restarting operations after a disaster that shut it down before.
Sounds a bit like INFRA
This is very close to the concept behind Stasis: Bone Totem (an extremely good horror adventure puzzle game), though its focus is more on sea horror, and eventually shifts locale from the oil rig.
i would love to be able to choose between abandoned oil rig and old underwater base but still get the sameish events
This fricker is getting too big.
STOP FEEDING IT
Thats why i keep em small
i dont have any room left on my desk
How rare is the water rune from fishing?
Wait how the frick did you keep the lamp?
there was a guide in last thread about how to steal stuff from the arirs. basically, the arirs activate once an object is too far away from its "spawn point". by moving the object, saving, then reloading, you set a new spawn point for that object.
That sound like a b***h to do. At least the lamp is extremely useful though, require no fuel but wouldn't it in theory possibly cause a future cat attack if you ever just knock it too far one day? Like you can't ever actively explore in the darkness with it. Stealing the cat bed might be more useful, more so if the feeding thing is linked to the bed and not the location.

There's going to be some massive dissonance in my head if the Short actually turns out to be a c**t. I think I've sabotaged myself into being unable to fight her.

GUNS UP
LET'S MOVE
I finally investigated a blip and it turned out to be something. Found a couple bones on the ground, picked them up and then a wooden inverted cross staked into the ground started following me like the mannequins do. Gave me some chills.
I still think there needs to be an upgrade for the ATV that lets you see X:Y while driving around, or letting you hold your map out while driving. If shit's in the outer perimeter I don't even both trying to find it, only blips I go after are walking distance.
You can pin the map to the atv with a hammer and nail.
It's never come off. Extremely useful while driving. Should probably save first, some people have been sent into low earth orbit trying.
I saw an anon suggest that and I tried it, but I often run into a bug where the map won't update X:Y at all when I'm holding it in my hand. Sometimes equipping/unequipping fixes it, sometimes I need to reload a save. Whenever I tried to nail it to the ATV it would bug out and not update X:Y, I figured it just wouldn't update while not held but if it works for you I'll try it again.
I did this, rolled the atv, and the map exploded.
updated dam map including ideas from that one anon's map. added a small rig off the coast. Possibly each other day you get tasked to stay in either the dam, marsh or rig for the night in order to do menial tasks.
another day another gift of aquatic goodness.
This ones version of the transformers would be the still halfway functioning turbines in the dam, where they will occasionally get something clogged in them, usually just random branches and shit making its way through the filters, othertimes a rotting mass of meat.
the broken ship is full of old papers detailing an incredibly mundane journey until they simply stop, but in the locked and somehow still sealed up helm theres a single computer you can drag back to base and power on to get a few blurry photos of moments before their gruesome end. You receive 5 points and a legal threat from the ships owners that if you ever release this they will ruin you.
The dam tasks might be monitoring output graphs and correcting for errors(dumb math minigame), and listening to/processing audio logs from the monitoring equipment which are usually just mundane and sometimes ooky spooky
The rig tasks might be throwing out trap pots to monitor fish populations, maybe running up down and around the rig doing some kind of maintenance task to keep it from collapsing into the bay, big monstrous diesel generator powering the thing would give for a nice background drone to the location, and horrifying moments when it sputters out in the middle of the night leaving you on the pitch black open sea.
The marsh I guess would be setting up game cameras, clearing out brush blocking streams, trying to not get eaten by bigfoot, doing sick ass jumps in your airboat.
we love getting marsh duty

Would def love to play in that setting. Always liked dam settings in videogames
Agreed. Even if votv doesnt hit the mark for everyone, there is def interest in the premise. I can imagine there will be more games like this over time.
Def been the game that has consumed me the most this year. Been checking the updates channel and I still like the direction it is going in. I know they going to do a full map overhaul as well as a full asset rework over time. As well as a lot more entities. But it seems like Nose is implementing the rest of the systems he wants to see in the game first.
>my map doodle got made all pretty
love it, the oil rig and busted up old ship are really cool
What do I do with all the spooky L3's I've processed? The Black folk at HQ never request them.

Send them in anyway for mad cash.
I always throw in enough to fill the box after getting what they need.
I love how this game inspires more gamemaking. That's a sign of quality. Art should inspire art.
I think it'll be hilarious if something actually comes of all these ideas. Voices of the Void is effectively a fangame, so it getting its own fangame would just be funny.
Lol maybe turns into a votv snoot game situation
>yes you see I like your OC alien race but your ideas for them are bad

Nah, it could never be that I think. Snoot Game is half spite half shitpost, while this would be out of a genuine enjoyment of the concept of votv.
Anyway you bringing up snoot game has me imagining a shitpost vn where you're the human transfer student at an ariral high school and you can date a short on one route and help her with a school shooting targeting the talls
>Snoot Game is half spite half shitpost
I have plenty of spite for Nose and Arirals. I'm sure I'm not the only one.
Sure, plenty of people don't like some parts of votv and want to change parts of that and do what the dev refuses to. But that still comes from a place of love, of wanting something that you enjoyed on some level to be even better. Meanwhile GVH was something that appealed to no one on any level besides maybe wanting to frick dinos. I hope that makes sense, it's 5AM and I'm a bit delirious
I wouldn't go that far
I'm sure there was some troony furgay who was genuinely excited for GVH
somewhere, out there
I don't mind the cats, hell they can kinda be funny in fan art and for the most part stay near Papa and leave you alone ingame. I mostly sad that the dev seem to treat the game less like a game and more of a place where he can shitpost models in and use it as a sandbox. 6.0 broke so much shit which would been fine as he also added a ton of new shit. My issue is a lot of bugs that existed since 6.0 are still fricking there. He isn't improving the game as much as he just layering on top of it. Hell think he completely abandoned the green box and tile thing as he doesn't give the slightest of fricks that one of the coolest effect just doesn't work most of the time. Reward may as well be an empty box as far as he seem to care. Is it wrong of me to say I am a fan of the game but unironically wish the dev got replaced with someone more competence?
If you replaced Nose, you wouldn't get VOTV or anything at all. His unique blend of autistic insanity is the sole reason this isn't another Signal Sim situation.
So...
Can humans reproduce with Arirals?
Canonically, no
but who the frick cares about canon, right?

Holy FRICK guys look outside. A Joel just flew over my base and hit a satellite dish.

why do you saying that
start tutorial, it's in like the first room. He's just disappointed the secret wasn't as cool as he thought it would be.
But mileage may vary, try it out yourself.
My mum walked in and saw the nekked ladies up there.
Climbing exist so it far easier now to get up there. Before you gotta have the table slanted the long way just to reach, now you can just jump from the table while it is flat on the ground and jump again mid-air against the upper floor to just climb up. So there isn't a reason to not just see it for yourself with how easy it is now.
What? Ok I didn't know you could do that. I grabbed the chest from the next room and propped the table on that.
Yea, also work for all fences in the main game as well with the exception of the outer-most fence. So Stonehenge, bunker and the new trees you no longer need to ATV seat into. Also require to know how to climb for the newer nightmares. Remember to un-crouch after a climb as it seem impossible to climb while in that state.

Doesn't matter for posters.
Any mods for flatscreen TVs?
I'm new to VotV. Does "story" mode end after 7 days?
40-44 days
Can you no longer use that playthrough after that time is up? I want to make the ultimate cozy base and I'd like to be able to keep it.
It become infinite mode after that, so you can continue forever.
for me, the day and night cycle stopped with the big pyramid thing standing in the far distance forever and I couldn't save.

How do I clean my base? The sponge does nothing..
All cleaning stuff needs to be soaked in water before use
I have an idea.
Don't hold it, grab it. Then rub it on surfaces.
If you have the cats fully based out then they will have two powerwashers (virtually worthless though), just buy a mop from the store. It is worth it. Don't "upgrade" the bucket though it hold less water. It just an option to look nicer.
Which one is the mop, nameless item 1 or nameless item 3?
the one that's 300, should be the first one
Not worth it. I'll just slap everything with a dry sponge.
The price is excessive, but it's more efectice at cleaning and has a seemingly infinite amout of water it can hold, I cleaned the roof, outside walls and bunker without needing to resoak it.
I think I might have soaked the sponge once, 44 days ago in-game, and it's still working fine just dragging it around. emphasis on "might"
only thing the mop has over it is the extra range for walls and such
When I use the sponge it runs out after cleaning about 2 or 3 splotches and takes about 6-7 seconds each, while the mop has what appears to be infinite use and cleans splotches in about 3-4 seconds.
Splotches with the sponge take about 2 seconds. I can clean an entire wall in 30 seconds just by dragging the sponge across it.
Weird, I can't clean with either tool by just dragging it. But when I use the power washer, sometimes splotches with dissapear instantly, only for them to come back when I load the save.
>splotches with dissapear instantly, only for them to come back when I load the save.
This happens when you didn't fully remove the stain. It will load in looking like a full stain but the moment you go to clean it it goes back to where you left it last time.
don't use while held in hand, hold it a full meter in front of you and drag it around
It's also buggy too, I filled the mop bucket with water for the mop and when I reloaded the save the mop bucket had no water, couldn't be interacted with, and had no collision. It was stuck where I left it until it teleported to the grass outside the big window, where I still can't do anything to it.
Where do people get the gun and knife from?
gun is inside one of the satalites I think and the knife will be stuck in the wall of the treehouse right on top of one of the posters
I've yet to find the treehouse
You will
How does posters and picture frames work? Pressing use does nothing.
Drop it on the wall while dragging it around if picture frame. For posters you right click while Dr. Kel is holding the item.
I meant putting custom pics on them.
Did you put any images in the assets folder?
What folder?
If you want the old default stuff then you need to drag and drop them from an older version.
I want someone to draw a trail of shrimp like a trail of roses leading to Kel seductively A-posing on his bed
What items should I put in the microwave? I tried putting an egg in there but it only ended up burning it.
Animal skull, Demon Core, G-mod gun, cat plushes and chulutu guy plush are the most interesting. If you do animal skull play for a bit, don't just save and reload else you forever lose out on the event.
>don't just save and reload else you forever lose out on the event.
You can find the skull again qith the metal detector.
maybe, cucumbers and octopus reproduction has never been theorized, tested, or researched in any capacity. So arir/human hybridization is like schrödinger's womb.
> cucumbers and octopus reproduction has never been theorized, tested, or researched in any capacity
what on earth did you mean by this?
He's saying that cucumbers and octopi theoretically can't reproduce with each other but nobody has actually tried w
either.
Cats be smelling a little fishy, they be loving water.
Is this by the same guy who draws water-based VotV concept art?
No, it is like his only art piece related to the game as far as I can tell and it was done before the game got popular.
He go by Ivan Khoroshev on Twitter. Like I said though it is his only piece related to the game as far as I can tell.
artist?
Nose said something along the lines of a human trying to reproduce with an ariral is like an octopus mating with a cucumber.
I think nose is fricking moronic
Wait a second, you can only use one custom poster image?

What's the game about? Seems comfy
Think of it like My Summer Car, but with processing space signals in a spooky forest instead of building a car. You should play it as blindly as possible, only coming to these threads to ask for technical help if you get stuck.
Regardless, I was spoiled quite a bit by the threads and still really enjoyed it. There's a lot to discover for a "demo".
>enter "rice=safe" into the console
>hear a muffled "Our homes are safe!" from the vent above me
Think of it like a truck simulator or some other autistic job simulator game with random horror elements.
Downloaded the game but it felt like i'm a chinese kid assembling it's toy so i can maybe have fun with it. Is it supposed to feel like that? The signal machine having 30 sec cooldown also is a major turnoff...
yes kind ofit's very slow and comfy, not action 24/7. Lots of people just enjoy decorating their shitty base in the downtime between stuff actually happening.
Think of it as more like, truck simulator or some other autistic sim game with horror elements, rather than a genuine horror game.
Upgrade your shit at the computator homie. Also the game is meant to be a slow burn.

you look for aliens and manage a base in a forest
don't ask questions just scan for signals
how is catposting ominous, they're your friends and you should unlock your doors for extra computer power
Stop asking questions and get me those level 2 drives, or your legs will NOT be okay.
the cat aliens killed and I mean absolutely killed any interest I had in this game. some dude's furry OC twitter race does not make for a compelling situation when up to this point it had been built on tension and fear and the promise of a payoff. the payoff being uwu cute snilly widdol guys that just wanna hug is stupid. even basic b***h greys would have been more interesting. the weirdly parasitic relationship between devs and streamers also seems to have completely altered the tone of the game. hate this shit
UwU
arirals have been in the game since the start. it was literally called "Signal Simulator: Ariral edition"
it stopped being scary and turned into zoomer bait after a while. so much shit going on and trying to watch anyone play it has the streamer constantly fending off back seaters or whatever Joel does
zoomers who do nothing but read the wiki and try to get streamers to do the side quest they read about are a cancer
I agree but
>the weirdly parasitic relationship between devs and streamers also seems to have completely altered the tone of the game
The catgirl aliens have nothing to do with the streamer in question. They are the dev's creation.
no but the streamer being the dev's like, weird primary focus fricks with the game
is he? I feel like his primary focus is his catgirls
While the dev does want to spook Joel, it's a bit extreme to say that this is his focus.

Its normal where I live. I had my first kid at 19, my kid had twins at 21. Child making in your 30s or later is a sign of a collapsing and decaying civilization.

Anyone else find the Arirals really fricking obnoxiously written?
They're a minority of bougies who are oh so overpowered and superior AND they want to uplift + pacify us without our consent as pretext to invade and colonize on the basis of "you owe us", which Nose seems to think is a good thing. BUT WAIT, THEN you learn their homeworld's head is having a gun pointed at it, they have the majority population in squalor and you'd think that's it, there's the nuance, the Talls are there to filter out people who scream about furries and mary sues and these Shorts are the real heroes, but NO they're all insufferable butthole militiants who would destroy Earth outright if they got mad.
It fricking blows dude
Ariral sex
Talls are perfectly fine with Earth - they just don't want us getting eaten by a cosmic horror by us being stupid. Shorts are basically just North Korea.
They still cross the line the moment they introduce chemicals to the water without asking.
I'd try Uplift Juice(tm) if given it as a prescription, but the second it's roofied to the collective population without asking? That's grounds for me take your shit and feed myself with my own hands, buddy
despite suffering the adverse effects of severe toxoplasmosis infection I can still say yes ariral lore is 99% dogshit, and I'd hazard the guess even the majority of gato sexo posters dislike it, they just sort of ignore it/don't care about lore
Fair.
but aren't arirals cold? would feel terrible lying on
I got like 30 hours of spooky horror signal vidya and THEN I got a boatload of alien catgirl shenanigans with more to come, thats like double win in my book.
It's good to see more people wake up to the fact that Arirals are garbage.
I feel like this is simply the unspoken consensus to all who are at all aware of their actual lore, when it was revealed people certainly did shit on it for threads, I don't really remember any positive posts about it.
For me it's less of the inane lore and more of a game being a vehicle for Nose's cringe wish fulfillment OC wank.
I'm okay with games having furry-adjacent characters when they organically fit the world, but in VotV arirals are anything but that. They collect every Mary Sue red flag that tumblr OCtards learned to avoid a decade ago. If we get in the lore, it immediately showcases how the OC wank not even remotely subtle, across the entire board:
Powerwank: they're unkillable, have hyper-deadly guns, mind-boggling tech but also suuuper strong even without tech shit.
Better-than-you wank: The classic 'I'm cute therefore I'm better than you' kind, with shorts serving as a good backdrop for them. They regularly abuse you but you're supposed to forgive them because they're cute and they're 'just playing'/'it's a prank, bro'.
Coomer/waifu wank: Tall space catgirls except with axolotl flair and multiple pseudo-boobs, enough said.
Progressive wank: LOOK AT HOW PROGRESSIVE I AM BY DREAMING UP A FEMALE-DOMINATED SOCIETY! ACKTUALLY I EVEN ADDED A FUTA GENDER, MY TASTE IS IMMACULATE!!1
All in all, Nose clearly hasn't been bullied (harshly criticized, beaten within inch of his life, force-fed his own arms, sent a strongly-worded letter, pick whichever appropriate) enough to actually start developing a proper taste and subtlety. And by that I mean rub braincells together for long enough to realize that shoving his fetish shit into a game posing as something else may not be the best move.
agreed on all points more or less except the progressive thing, they aren't mostly female and futa because of feminism my friend and it's kind of funny you took it that way
>the progressive thing
I observed thirdies assuming full-package futa is trans-supportive.
Could easily be classic futatroony fetish + my-waifu-is-a-queen-btw powerwank, too.
It's the "I like benis and bagina but I don't want to be stuck with just one" fetishism. With a little super waifuism.
Furries did this with the original lore for taur types back in the day, they were all herms and were all perfect right down to the hormonal balance.
a lot of stuff from that doc that got leaked isn't up to date from what I remember if we're being fair, the dudes who ferry question to the discord have posted some stuff from nose that makes them seem less OP
>LOOK AT HOW PROGRESSIVE I AM BY DREAMING UP A FEMALE-DOMINATED SOCIETY!
Pretty sure they're a matriarch because the dev is a coomer and thinks its hot
You have seen the animations he makes in his free time, right?
>have posted some stuff from nose that makes them seem less OP
This is absolutely not the case. iirc the lore doc didn't say anything about vacuum decay and indis, two of the most OP things Arir have. all of that came from the dev's posts
Your verdict is a bit harsh, but I agree, Nose clearly doesn't care. Some call it based, but personally, I don't see anything based about being inconsiderate and taking the players to your magical realm.
>the dudes who ferry question to the discord have posted some stuff from nose that makes them seem less OP
Not by a lot. And this doesn't really matter. What does matters is how they are presented in the game. Arirals are still cutesy, obnoxious, unkillable, and account for most of alien activity and about half the easter eggs in the game. Of course, this might/will change in the future, but I judge things by how they are at the moment, and will adjust my opinions as the game develops.

I still cling to hope that all that catgirl shit is kinda a joke and will go away someday.
im sorry to say this is completely delusional, nose fricking loves them beyond all else, the catgirls weren't just added to the game, the game was added to the catgirls, literally.
The original name suggestion by nose was signal simulator ariral edition
Welp, that's sad.
one of the next big features nose keeps teasing is going to make them even more prominent even, however there might be some light at the end of the tunnel. They will have a reputation system of sorts. We don't know exactly what it means but maybe there will be a path where if you don't treat them like your alien catwives they won't be wacky but genuinely spooky.
But I wouldn't hold my breath, I'm more expecting there to be the current state of them the most hostile they'll ever be.
Though discordanon could ask nose if it's gonna be positive only or if there's gonna be major content for negative interactions too.
So long as he keeps reworking their lore I really don't care. I think he's aware it's still not good enough to really put into the game fully.
The furry shit will be the downfall of this game.

The ariral is the pussy. The fishypuss
bazowa
She has one of those, too, by the looks of it. I like to imagine Arirals as biologically monogender, with a repurposed clitoris capable of fertilization and internal testes. It's just nice to imagine it shlicking out of their labia and stabbing into something.

If you frick the argemia plush will the arirals kick your ass?
They can't unfrick the plush, you've already won at that point
God, why is he making so many of them? 3 normal + 3 super secret was okay, but this is too much. At this point, I want to gather them just to throw them away so they don't litter the map.
Because he has the mentality of a woman child plushie collector
I thought they were fine until he made the orange one require a flying machine. Why the frick the drone pushing it off seem unacceptable? I fricking clearly know where it is, why does it matter how I choose to get it? A lot of the game is just getting annoying and if he ever remove the flying glitch I argue even unplayable if he intend people to be able to get on top of powerlines for everything.
un-crouch and jump to jump again mid-air against the wall/fence. If the wall is too high the game simply won't let you. Outer most fence is taller than it seems but all of the inner fences you should be able to climb.
I used the hook to get on top of the powerlines
theoretically you could use a hook to scale the invisible wall to grab the orange-blue plush
>theoretically you could use a hook to scale the invisible wall to grab the orange-blue plush
In theory I kinda see that maybe working but I feel it is a bit too far from the wall to do that. If you are willing and have time to burn you can try it to see if it works.
Unplayable? The dolls are just Easter eggs.
You say that but with every update he abandon old stuff yet expect people to still want to play. Like frick new players I guess. The green box is still fricking broken making the tiles completely useless. Is it wrong of me to want a complete experience in a single package instead of possibly jumping through multiple versions just to see everything?
I am on day 23 and have yet to find a single one.

The Tall's currently aren't, but they used to be

I started the game last night while drunk, I assume the energy consumption being at 100% is stopping me from processing my signal? I don't know what I'm doing but it just gives me an error ding when I try to process once the signal is imported into the console. Please understand I am moronic.
Energy consumption isn't an actual mechanic yet, you just need to upgrade the computer level before you can process signals.
So should I just keep collecting signals for the time being then?
Yes. Upgrading the computer level is necessary to get the message from most cryptic signals, but it also makes Bao expect more from you so for now it's best to upgrade other things before it.
Yeah, for now just collect signals and bag and sell trash.
Buy an item box (bottom of the essentials tab) for 10 credits, the drone can pick this up just like drive boxes.
make sure you save a copy of every signal you find onto your computer so you can process them later when you gain the ability to do so
you wouldn't want to lose a half translated signal to Dr Bao just because you didn't have the processing level required, would you?
I highly suggest upgrading your detector sensitivity, and your download speed before touching the computer power.
Once you do upgrade it I would put more points into computer speed so your signal processing takes less time
The other ones are more or less convenience.
I almost shat myself

Plenty of spooky critters he could work with.
I wonder how heat resistant the suits are, Travis Touchdown could probably kick all their asses if he could rely on his beam katana and wrestling moves.
>were-cat
SEXOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Only the fed suits have heat regulation. Vacationers could probably be cooked to death.
Indis has no heat conduction so that wouldnt work
How heat resistan are we talking? Thermite can burn about 4000 °F and I'm sure athermobaric launcher like the M202 would do some damage.
>would do some damage.
not against indis
So then white phosphorus is the way to go then, since that relies on oxygen not heat.
What, no maryland goatman?

>btw speaking of

This was during a development stream and I was asleep, so unfortunately it was something he showed on video and not in text form. Here's what he said before that though
>Image
That sure is a series of barely cohesive sentences.
Also, does Nose speak during his streams? If yes, what does he sound like?
He doesn't speak, because he still thinks his vocal english is too rough.
By "lock it" does he mean just holding them down/in place
not really a weakness
It is a weakness in a sense, since they still need to eat and drink.
Assuming you're fighting a war, i dont think holding down the enemy soldiers for multiple days straight until they die of dehydration is a viable strategy
>even compared to other aliens their tech is cool and better
Intolerable OC value rising...
>Ariral suits are impervious to all weapons but are easily thwarted by wrestling moves
Nevermind I love arir again. The Arirals FEAR Hulk Hogan, that anon was right about Nose's hh posting
Except for the part where they're at minimum twice our size so we gotta wrestle their asses in a gundam.
>Andre The Giant was 224cm tall, less than a foot shorter than the tallest Talls
HE DIDN'T DIE FROM A HEART ATTACK
THEY ASSASSINATED HIM BECAUSE HE WAS THE ONLY WRESTLER TALL ENOUGH TO POSE A THREAT
Those are average heights, right? That's too narrow of a height distribution for a species.
To be fair, shorts aren't even natural arirals. They're short because of the shitty conditions.
So shorts have been so exposed to radiation and chemicals that they're compatable with humans right?
>in height range of the shorts
sometimes, being tall isn't all that great
Imagine a short pretending to be a tall while dating a manlet
>The Arirals FEAR Hulk Hogan
Only as long as no one tells Nose about the concept of power armor, the kind that enhances the wearer's strength.
Yeah, if that's how he types, then I can imagine what he sounds like. God bless my mother for making me attend payed English lessons.
>Only as long as no one tells Nose about the concept of power armor
pretty sure they dont even fight themselves. i remember him saying they almost exclusively use military robots and other autonomous war machines
Found it. yeah the Tall military is apparently entirely composed of drones and androids
clearly the way to go then is to:
1: kill their drones and 'droids
2: use the mechanical offal to upgrade kerfus
3: ???
4: profit
>1: kill their drones and 'droids
But the drones are made of indis
Step 1 needs to be to steal some Arir weapons to use against the drones
>payed English lessons
Clearly she didn't pay enough for them
Ah, yes, the classic gaslighting ruse. I shall not fall for this again.
I'm not gaslighting you. The past tense of "pay" is "paid". You shouldn't always assume the worst of people, anon.
Ah. Paid. I often fall for this one. Almost mastering Russian and English, as well as knowing a little bit about how several other languages work, has taught me that all natural languages fricking suck dick with their bizarre rules and nonsensical exceptions.
Someone asked for old hentai?
