Decked Out really is a whole other game. It's running on Minecraft textures and programming, of course, but its visual identity is so distinct (Tango's block palettes go SO HARD) and the structure of the game is so brilliantly designed that it just. It's true. It's a whole other game.

#passenger status #decked out 2 #it's like the inverse of the relationship between chess and checkers #way different rules and game genre but same building blocks

We had a storage warehouse on our realm already, but I really wanted a space for plant-specific storage for the ten million oak leaves I inevitably need to save for custom trees -- so I built us a greenhouse! I think this might be the largest build I've done yet!!

A couple of things have labels, but for the most part storage spaces are delineated by the plants themselves -- barrels for a particular type of leaf have the corresponding sapling sitting on top, flowerboxes show off what kinds of flowers go in the barrels next to them, etc. I really wanted the space to have practical room to store EVERY PLANT, but to also feel like the primary purposes is growing and enjoying them.

And bonus planning sketches:

it took a LOT of planning -- these are just a few of the sketches I did trying to figure out where everything should go. IT WAS HONESTLY QUITE INTIMIDATING TO SORT OUT, I can't believe it's done!!

Also, a couple shots of the little dirt storage room just b/c I think it turned out nice too:

If you wanna watch me walking through the space (these screenshots don't quite show it all), I streamed a little tour recently over here!

"do you think god stays in heaven because he too lives in fear of what he created" except it's the qsmp admins realizing players including but not limited to forever, pierre, tazercraft, cellbit, phil, fit, bad, and etoiles are able and completely willing to break the server for reasons such as "to gamble more", or simply because it's funny

#qsmp #pierre crashed the server so they could gamble #fit could absolutely crash the server to gamble #etoiles is so cracked they had to spawn enough mobs to lag the server to pose a threat to him #phil has chayanne in pieces simply bc it's funny #bad would break the server to gamble and he is at the moment functionally immortal (22 totem pop tom over here)#tazercraft caught cucurucho in his chayanne pajamas breaking back into the nether and also shredded a federation build with a fucking drill #cellbit cracked their arg in like a week and may at this point have a more comprehensive lore document than the admin team lmfao #forever has been nerfed at LEAST twice and that's absolutely not gonna be the end of it #this is not an exhaustive list. god help the qsmp admin team.#shut up vic #block game brainrot

"This block has no mechanics it's just decorative why was it even added". Oh don't tell me. That the building game added a block only for the looks. So people could build with it in the building game.

#bernardo talks a lot #Minecraft #mineblr #i hate when people complain about Minecraft update adding way too many only decorative blocks #“Cooper is only decorative has no function at all” OH YEA? ONLY DECORATIVE? IN THE BUILDING GAME THAT HAS 16 COLORS OF WOOL FOR DECORATION?

Something i don't really agree or get is fandom perspective of shadow being lame,cringe and bastard meow meow cus that's not really it either(surviving and trying to cope with the horrors? The coolest thing), more like a modern distorted loved notion of people, yeah is funny but also projected and kinda westernized(the inaccurated dub versions and dialogue), leaning away from the original cultural backgrourd that get's sleep on and puts a more nuanced perception of the games. Idk where im going with this but i don't get people popular perspectives idk sorry im a killjoy i just love the fucked up aspect of this silly franchise and it's characters(i wish it could get that deep again).

theres a lot of things that indicate shadow is a cringe little bastard from jp to eng, it’s like his whole. Thing. the fanon flanderization of shadow is crazy but the part where he’s a bastard is pretty blatant in canon

like, he’s genuinely cool and stuff, he has a lot of fantastic moments (if the world chooses to become my enemy i will fight as i always have, the entire somewhat ridiculous yet awesome finale of shadow the hedgehog, sa2’s ending literally cemented his popularity so hard he came back to life in heroes because people thought he was fucking awesome and compelling), but a big appeal is the fact that he’s also still a silly guy in a series full of whacky silly guys

the eng and jp dubs have their differences in tone in a lot of ways, and eng is not incredibly accurate bc of it, but shadow even in jp is still like. a loser (affectionate)—he’s constantly talking about how much better he is, he insists on showing his dominance over sonic (and others, but especially sonic) even when it doesnt fucking matter ala tsr, he constantly FULLY believes he is the most correct person in any and all situations, and that his actions are always the best way to go about it even if it’s reckless or sometimes unnecessary (the mow things in my way down solution)

he’s so earnest in everything he does, in his own special cringe little way, where he’ll say factually correct statements in a blunt manner, but also not quite … ? he’s very honest. he’s incredibly straightforward. every single comment he says, no matter how fucking absurd or edgy or funny, he truly means it. thats his APPEAL he says shit like “ive hit the ultimate jackpot!” and “this is like taking candy from a baby, which is fine by me!” and somehow also “no one else should experience the things ive gone through” and thats all FANTASTIC

i like this twitter thread and a lot of jib’s threads on shadow, bc they know a lot more about the jp side of things, but tldr: shadow is my funny little guy. my stupid little pogchamp. my cringe little bastard boy who is the coolest and also the lamest motherfucker ive ever witness. i’m going to dribble him like a basketball

#i think ur trying to separate the silly and the fucked up but the appeal to me and many people #is the fact that u have these silly ridiculous guys in fully serious fucked up situations #and THATS when theyre the most appealing (to me)#shadow the hedgehog (2005) wouldnt be NEARLY as appealing To Me if shadow wasnt also a silly guy #look at sonic in that goddamn game! hes ridiculous! hes like the best part bc hes goin around saying WOOHOO while shadow is having loke #the crisis of his LIFE here!!! thats so funny!!!!!#the basic building blocks of shadow are in place so that if u cared about him in sa2 #u will still care especially towards the semi hero and hero endings #but the weird shit in between. the silly nonsense sonic guys who tag along with him. his funny karate chop of the computer. idk #he’s cool but hes cringe. duality. the perfect character #speaking #long post #asks

I know the people waiting on my preexisting UTMV things are probably very frustrated that these little shits are eating up my brain space right now but I refuse to stop, I’m having fun

First proper drawing of any of the critters, hopefully will get around to doing the rest of em

#original art #digital art #critter posting #smiling critters #catnap #dogday #poppy playtime chapter 3 #only chapter 3 interests me tbh #like yes the previous two provide lore building blocks but substance-wise they’re incredibly mediocre at best #3 however?#Holy shit they brought their A-game #also colorful animals are my weakness but that’s besides the point

After learning about the video game "CONTROL" and watching Julia LePetit-Drawfee play it, I have amended my views on brutalist architecture.

I used to think that brutalist architecture was a completely miserable and hideous style of architecture to expect human beings to exist in or around, with absolutely no acceptable applications.

But NOW I think that brutalist architecture is a completely miserable and hideous style of architecture to expect human beings to exist in or around, which is actually quite suitable for a visually striking video game about a living building that fucking hates you and is actively trying to kill you and everyone in it. ✅ ✅ ✅

I'm being silly but tbh anyone who disagrees with me can go ahead and spend 10 years commuting in the dingy gray concrete brutalist dimness of the DC metro system and then fucking get back to me.

#brutalism #brutalist architecture #brutalist #architecture #control #control game #secret sleepover society #julia drawfee #julia lepetit #original #Also bc brutalist builsings are made up of massive blocks of concrete theu are not only hideous but also basically impossible to get rid of #And that's why every college in America still has at least one fucking hideous corporate concrete building from the 1970s #those colleges would like to get rid of the buildings but because they are largely indestructible it is too expensive #I don't know what the fuck was happening in the '70s but I imagine in the '80s everyone was like oh fuck #I mean it's right there in the name it genuinely does feel brutal to spend a long time in a brutalist building #it's like if there was a style of architecture called stinky shit-ism XD #but control the video game is about just the worst building in the universe so it works #brutalism asks the question what if every building could have the same vibes as a parking garage??#anyone who wants to feel vindicated on this topic should totally check out the very funny sketch on youtube from #the Comedy Central show alternatino called The Man Behind the worst buildings in the world - or something like that #i cry laughed

Im thinking Philza also did that lore as well at the end of his stream because he hasn't been in his hardcore world much so this will also give him more time to do that .

Also Im looking forward to him doing more of that because it'll also give more story building for the others as well on the server while he is gone .

Plus his hardcore minecraft build streams are always super chill to listen to and watch while doing art :D

#philza #qsmp #qphilza #may the story and angst build while he does chill block game on the side :D #win win for all of us lol

Guys, please, Tango doesn't consider himself a builder in the same way Michelangelo might not consider himself a painter* (see tags). You can accept you're very good at two things, and still consider yourself better at one over the other. It's not negative talk when he calls himself a redstone guy.

#tangotek #* Michelangelo was definitely good at painting but his preference was sculpture. Painting commissions were more frequent and profitable.#I don't know if this is the best example because it's difficult to parse exaggeration and fact #About historical figures in general especially artists and their personal feelings about their own art #and he definitely wouldn't have put a very strong divide between his skill sets because like.#You can see how much working and studying 3D space helped him create such life-like people in a 2D painting.#But I think Decked Out is a good example of harmony of skills too #The building part of game design and the coding part needed each other to create Decked Out 2 #My point here is #That we can't ask Michaelangelo if he considers himself a sculptor or painter #Because he's dead and also may not have an actual answer himself #But we can ask Tango! And he says he's a redstoner not a builder. And that's ok :)#Dear God this entire set of tags sounds like pretentious rambling but I'm gonna post it anyway bc I hope people see past me comparing #a beloved Renaissance artist to a Block Game Guy #and take time to reflect on how an artist might interpret themselves vs how their audience sees them thru the lense of their work.
