I couldn't find anybody that posted this before, but this slop news network guy did a look at thor... thor bros it's not looking good

Posting things multiple times isn't so bad but but come on now nigga, be honest. You didn't even look. Literally same link that this guy replied to and archived.
Local archive because he's absolutely going to copyright strike it

He does manage to make Champions of Breakfast however, proving to himself that he can actually make something. This is a big ego boost.
There was an allegation earlier in the thread that CoB was a project by senior students and James basically just ripped it off. That wasn't substantiated I guess?

People keep saying "voice changer" but that's a red herring. Nigga is just upping the bass on his microphone ... Here's what it sounds like when he isn't pitch-shifted.
The fact that his microphone input is going through some kind of signal processing software that modifies his voice is what people are calling a voice changer here.

DOES HE EVEN KNOW HOW SWITCH STATEMENTS WORK?
Fuck you, I'm refactoring your shit code.

JavaScript:
//Magic numbers unite. Only refactoring one if statement, since it's just the same.
if(global.left_key_pressed){
    switch(selected_button){
        case 0:
        case 4:
        case 6:{
            selected_button = 1;
            break;
        };
        case 2:
        case 3:
        case 5:{
            selected_button = 4;
            break;
        };
        case 1:{
            selected_button = 8
            break;
        };
        case 7:{
            selected_button = 3
            break;
        };
        case 8:{
            selected_button = 6
            break;
        };
    }
};

//You can see that none of cases actually correspond with the value it's changed to.
//If the code starts with 0, it will be turned into a 1.
//This 1 will then turn into a 4.
//This 4 will then turn into a 3.
//This 3 will then turn into a 7.
//This 7 will then turn into 1. Loop!

//This is utterly benign and I don't know why in the fuck this would ever be used.
Jesus fucking christ Mald you absolute nigger learn what a finite state machine is.
 
From "The end of Stop Killing Games"
"I did not enjoy having to do that segment, but I've had to do a lot of things on this campaign I don't like. Believe it or not, my goal was not to tarnish Thor's reputation. That's incidental. I don't care. [...} I don't wish him ill will. On the contrary, I hope he finds some peace of mind."
From "Stop Killing Games updates + answering questions (June 2025)"
"I am not trying to make his life harder, I did offer to have a discussion if he wants it, but I don't think he does and to be honest neither do I really, but I would if that helped, and I would be civil about it so uh, right now my plan is I'm totally fine with leaving Thor alone and we each do our own things."
But to Maldoverse ball washers, Those two statements weren't enough, and the statement afterward that DIRECTLY SAYS "No, We don't endorse harassing Pirate Software." came way too late?
But Mald's Double, Triple, Quadrupling, Quintupling, Sextupling Down takes are perfectly fine. "I totally apologized."

Insane Behavior dude.
 
Even if he did, and implemented it, his next update would be a net -MB patch with all patch notes listing his complete rebase.
Christ, if manages to pull off a reduction in his game size, he'll claim that he figure out something incredible and we'll never hear the end of it. I mean that's kinda good for us because we can call him out for more bullshit, but we'll never hear the fucking end of it ever. So I'm not sure if we even want that.

Is... are we accidentally helping him develop Heartbound?

Blackpill time boys.
Mald makes probably 10k a month off twitch...
He does whatever that switch thing is and hes making 10k a month off twitch and youtube.
Well maybe not anymore after SKG, but definitely was.

Keep the infrastructure and sanitation under everyone's feet that they need and rely on to avoid living in squalor and filth?
Maybe 6-7k before taxes and lots of hard work.
Spew absolute bullshit and don't know what you're talking about? 10k.

I'm gonna get a glass of fresh, cold, clean water and think about how life isn't fair.
 
his game is such an Undertale ripoff that he opted to also steal Toby's coding chops.
He did read Toby's code so this is likely the case
The difference is Undertale is a pretty linear game, while Mald claimed he wants to have meaningful player choice and branching paths in his game. It's going to be hell to implement in a codebase like this. If he was actually planning to implement this in a meaningful way, he'd probably resort to insane levels of if-nesting and it would not look pretty. Here's what player choice in Heartbound looks like now https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1854209807

IT'S NOT EVEN HEARTBOUND IT'S HIS FUCKING MINECRAFT GROOMER MMO
And all he does in these streams is rewriting existing data in yaml format like monkey, not even coding. You could ask chatgpt to do that. But you know, it's green text on black background so he must be doing cool hacky shit
pasted file.webp
I remember seeing a clip of him saying that he stopped doing Heartbound development streams because streaming while coding is stressful to him or something. I think he knows his code is trash.
 
I'm very sorry if this has been said before, but I had Roach's stream on last night in the background, and he admitted that he hates Heartbound with a passion and would have given up on it but cannot stop because then the haters will win.
the best part is that his shitty undertakes clone is now an albatross that he will never escape from. If by come miracle he finishes it, the collective reaction to the final product will be a fucking bloodbath.
ALBATROSS CONFIRMED!

So you're telling me, he's probably just copying a Minecraft MMO framework and putting his own shit into it?

Nigger, you better go back and find that clip and archive it, right the fuck now if that's true.

The mercy is that there will always be another drain to unclog, whereas streaming income is never a surefire thing, and translates poorly to any other job. As much as mald's made, he's a one in a thousand chance - hundreds of self-important tards languish at 3 viewers per stream (2 of which are bots).

Not to mention, these things become their own hells. Imagine having to sit in a tiny corner of the internet because you're a known laughingstock literally everywhere else.

Mald's probably gonna be on a steady decline from here on out, and it's shocking how quick things can turn. All that needs to happen is a new smug know-it-all coder streamer to rise, and Mald will be dust in the wind.

Uh, this doesn't seem anywhere near as insane as Undertale's general branching is. Like, Undertale has broadly three routes (Pacifist, Neutral, and Genocide), with anything short of either extreme ending up on some variant of neutral. But it has a lot of little nooks and crannies of choices affecting other things in other places, even across save files.

I believe the issue here, and with multiple endings in general is combinatorial explosion. The number of cases to account for doesn't just grow linearly with the number of choices, but up to the number of all the possible choices multiplied together. Though in practice some combinations of the choices simply don't make sense, this also represents additional complexity, because you have to think about how the choices interact. This would be likely be intractable even if being worked on by a good programmer. For an expert beginner like Maldavius, the odds look even worse.

NO FUCKING WAY
If you're someone non-tech savvy wondering why this is bad; imagine you have stuff, just general stuff lying around. Would you either shove everything into one drawer or select, manage and sort all that stuff into separate ones? Putting everything into one drawing not only sucks for YOU, having to read, write and modify all this shit, but, on a large scale (which this is, fucking 16kb), computationally this suck ass too, if the program only requires one single value to be read from that file, it has to load THE ENTIRE FILE. If he keeps this up, RAM usage will just absolutely bloat.
