Goodbye Volcano High - "The Future of Gaming", The Parody Game of the Beloved Snoot Game Franchise

I played Snoot game last week or so and I've thoroughly enjoyed it. Got ending 2 for my first playthrough (fucking cables), it was realistically depressing and poignant- enough for me to get invested in the characters.

The quality of writing is.. sometimes not the best. Weak flow, maybe compounded by the white on blue-transparent text. Some sentences are clunky on par with high school essays. Definitely needed a proofread once or twice more.
I push open the usual side entrance I take and enter the hallway that's starting to become familiar now. (Fixed: I enter the building though its side entrance, traveling into the hallway that's starting to become familiar to me.)

When I can finally see again Fang has her wings drawn together behind her and her hands clasped on something also behind her. (Fixed: When I finally open my eyes I'm greeted to Fang holding her hands and wings behind herself.)

Overall, still a very impressive piece of fiction from a bunch of randos.

TBQH your "fixed" writing is weaker.

I'm not a writer and I'm sure you could do better, you dumb fucking ape. Go start a fire or something.

But here's the thing. It's been about a week since GBVH has come out, and really what has this piece of media changed in the world?

It had the same impact of Bob's game if that shit actually released.
 
I would've never seen this if Broteam didn't bring it up on his stream, KO_OP got 1.2 million from the Canadian government to make this trash.

They're expecting you to shell out $30 for something you could get a better version of on 4Chan, and both Valve and Sony take the indystry standard 30% cut per sale with the game losing any hype it had left almost as soon as it came out.... Yeah no, they're not going to make up the debt they now owe to the Canucks at all.

2019 - 2020.

I wonder did the devs get the media fund tugboat for every year or did they spend 1.2mil on themselves for 5 years?

$1,224,632 in 2020
$1,430,433.47 in 2023 (inflation)

There's no way they'll reach the needed 69.000~ sales to make it up to the canadian tax payer.

It baffles me that you can scam the Cucknadian government out of 1.2 million leaf money and THIS is the result.

Bad lip syncing, if any. Poor voice direction and general quality of voice recordings. Flat characters. Flatter art style. Serious lack of background music and general mood setters.

Wolf Nanaki deserves his own thread, what a looney troon.

From a story perspective, the fact that Fang's mother at first doesn't use her 3Edgy5U chosen name is to show that being nonbinary is still a big cultural shift from her family's heritage. When she eventually corrects herself and uses Fang instead of Fatima, it shows that her mother truly does care about her despite everything. The world is ending, the least she can do is humour her daughter.
As weak as the story is in general, censoring or outright removing the schism between Fang and her culturally conservative parents would make the story even weaker.
The drama relates to Fang's nonbinary identity and not challenging it removes the thought exercise for the "gender binary"/"cis" players of the game.
If you want a fluff piece with only trans-positive BS, write your own. But Ko_Op's single gram of worthwhile drama relates to Fang being deadnamed.

I cannot believe I am defending and excusing this shitty game.

“deadname filter” option in the game that censors its audio and text. I get that. I think it’d be great, especially since this game does such a great job at making you feel for these characters that you’d share Fang’s pain in those scenes. I’m sure Fang would love to have that filter too, though. And I’m sure many trans and nonbinary people would in real life. My life’s audio would be full of lots of censor sound effects. Good idea to add the filter to the game, but remember why it’s not there initially, and what the message is trying to portray. Besides, the kind of people who would deadname Fang would never call them by their canon deadname. They’d call them Lucy.

Kinda weird to admit to look up Snoot Game by knowing who Lucy is.

KO_OP cleary should've done a Tell me Why and flatout spoil that the protag never gets deadnamed.

I still don't get why troons like Wolf Nanaki have any time at all for non-binaries. It's LARPing as troonism. You'd think they'd find it offensive.
