Do we even have a name for the kind of mental illness that guy has?

I wondered why this thread had been bumped, amazed that site is still running. Do people go there other than JC and Icycalm?

Same as corporate-selected politicians. Why they're good at stepping up in the world upon an alter of followers.

So, when will we get to see the game that will blow everyone's minds?
Re: IcyCalm is making a game..
So is this game going to be Broken Thunder levels of amazing, or The Slaughtering Grounds level? I need to prepare my body so it's ready.

Re: IcyCalm is making a game..
Oh, whoops. I was still under the impression that Icycalm was dead.
Two working class dudes, one black one white, just baked a tray of ten cookies together.
An oligarch walks in and grabs nine cookies for himself.
Then he says to the white dude "Watch out for that black dude, he wants a piece of your cookie!"

Re: IcyCalm is making a game..
Time for a new bump! Damnit I want to see this game even more than Ubusuna. Any news?
Anyone from the development staff (Zinger?) who can give some insider of what happened?
That old quote from IcyCalm:
"Second off, I don't have "theories", fagot: I KNOW, because I have studied, thought about, and comprehended the history of art better than any human being that has ever existed."

Re: IcyCalm is making a game..
It's really wild to look back at 25 fucking years of forum history here... sadly a lot of it was lost in Trading Station but oh well. Still plenty of gems.

Re: IcyCalm is making a game..
Ah, harsh words but they're not wrong.
It'd be cool if his game was a sequence of rooms like the first Legend of Zelda. And in every room there's some kind of robot that punches you in the balls. You have a weapon, but like the cane in Jekyll n' Hyde it does nothing. And you can't progress to the next room until you get punched in the balls enough times.
People will scoff and call it stupid self-indulgent trash. Some will wonder "what is this narcissist shithead even trying to say?"
But then ten years will pass, and while a robot in real life is punching them in the balls for their daily quota of rations, they'll look back to his game and say "Oh." And he'll be allowed to make a smug post that's like "See? It's ART, son!" but with more slurs and demeaning pejoratives slipped in.
And he would be right to do so.
Re: IcyCalm is making a game..
Yeah, so many people come and go. There's a lot of class reunions irl, but I'd love to see a big forum reunion.GaijinPunch wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 1:07 am

Speaking of forum history, there were one or two smaller shmups forums around 2003-2004, maybe earlier, anyone remembers their names? There were some members from here at those forums as well.

Wasn't there also a Swedish Forum?
Re: IcyCalm is making a game..
Not sure about Swedish forum, but there's a shmup.com site and forum in French too.
And another one called shmup'em'all from where the concept of 1-sissy seem to have emerged. Not sure if all the 1-sissy video are in French, of if some have been translated : https://shmupemall.com/1-sissy/page/20

What's a 1-sissy?! Credit-feeding the game and then saying you "beat it"?

Re: IcyCalm is making a game..
It's just the name of a video series put out by the shmup'em all guys, guides to 1CC games. I think the idea behind the name is "watch this and you'll see a 1CC is so easy a sissy could do it!" I don't think they've done any in a while, but if you search YouTube you'll find a bunch of them (as well as... other things).ChurchOfSolipsism wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 10:49 am What's a 1-sissy?!

But yeah, icycalm… Met the dude twice, and he was super down to earth irl. Internet persona was off the rails though. Weren’t there some rumors at some point that he crashed and died in an illegal street race in Sweden?

Re: IcyCalm is making a game..
1-sissy is definitely not credit feed. As Mortificator said, those are real 1-CC aimed totally at survival and clearing the game, no scoring at all.Mortificator wrote: ↑Fri Jan 26, 2024 12:46 pmIt's just the name of a video series put out by the shmup'em all guys, guides to 1CC games.

Those are done by people knowing the shmup genre and commenting their run with details on how to get through things.
They have done more than 250 of them now, linked on their Youtube channel and this page, with some pretty tought titles like Mushi Futari, Radiant Silvergun, DDP, DDP DFK, and many many more. Last one as of jan 8th 2024 is #293, Gunbird.
Those videos do not have the quality level of Plasmo's Special Demonstrations series for sure, but are very good resources when you need some help on how to get further into a game.

Re: IcyCalm is making a game..
Yes, there was a Swedish shmup forum. I think the first version came around 2003 (called "Nose Laughin" after Battle Garegga st 1 boss) and switched to a new place and name in 2004 (called stgfan) and was quite alive and well between 2004-2010, then the inevitable death came.CIT wrote: ↑Thu Jan 25, 2024 8:01 pmThere used to be German language Forum called Triggerzone, but it's long gone and most of its people got washed up here.DMC wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 6:13 am Yeah, so many people come and go.

But I was thinking of an international forum that sort of rivalled system11 around 2003-2004 or so. I think it was called something like InfiniteLives or InsertTheCredit or something like that. And it had some of the more well-known and respected members, but much fewer members than system11.
Icy still posts at his forum by the way, which seems open right now.
That 1-minute review thread is a pretty fun read.
For example, some member wrote slightly too long reviews and made a few grammar errors. The punishment was to buy Icy three games apparently.
It's like some innocent cult phenomenon, psychologically quite interesting.

You can get me that Shovel Knight piece of crap so I can review it. And I'll start playing the new Torment soon, so people are going to hear about it from me. Thanks for the games.

Dang, if all you have to do is speak with authority and those with the sheep instinct will follow... what have I been doing with my life...
Of course a corollary of "all opinions are held" is "there's always someone into that"....
