I believe it's the motto of the game.

Because swine can be multiple therefor that is actually correct however it makes me wanna kill myself

Hehe I had a bit of a short-lived "aha!" moment earlier when I was adding details to the Information Portal. I added the personal website of Brady Jones, the environment artist on AAMFP, and as I was checking it out I found this (scroll to the very bottom):

http://www.bradyjones.com/html/education.html

I thought for a split second that he'd inadvertently included some AAMFP monster art, because it seemed like a pretty good candidate for the strange pig monster from the very first teaser trailer - the one with the little "arm" sticking out of his right side. But then I quickly realised that this material was from a project he'd worked on at university

And so ends my utterly fascinating story.

Yeah, that's true but is way different. There are many differences between a checkpoint that implies the loss of every progress, and a checkpoint (like in TDD) that respawn you near the death point. Sorry for the English, man... Still trying to study it xD

More than ATDD.

See, you were so quick to judge Googolballs that you didn't realise he was referring to the Sean Connery remake of Dear Esther.

"Dear Eshter, I shumtimes feel ash if I've given birth to thish island. Shumwhere, between the longitude and latitude a shplit opened up and it breached remotely here. No matter how hard I correlate, it remainsh a shingularity, an alpha point in my life that refushesh all hypotheshish."

Heh... Googolballs.

They're all... flibbity gibbly.

Interesting, I had never noticed the thing on his right arm. But I wonder if this is actually the HPL engine this guy worked on. Looks like it a bit, but not sure

Someone wake me up when the game finally comes out, I can't find the effort to read all these posts to stay in the thread conversations anymore.

TiberiusBond out.
