DF Game Club: Pajama Sam 2

(06:57:10 AM) Permafry_42: alright I'm going to start now
(06:57:27 AM) Cheeseness: Alrighty :)
(06:58:12 AM) Cheeseness: If anybody can't hear, try refreshing the stream
(06:59:30 AM) medacris: Oh my gosh, he's so adorable.
(06:59:54 AM) medacris: ...I recognize his voice actor.
(06:59:58 AM) Cheeseness: :D
(07:00:06 AM) medacris: Actress?
(07:00:09 AM) Syd: Yeah, she does a lot of voices. She's easy to recognize.
(07:00:16 AM) medacris: Spinelli?
(07:00:17 AM) Permafry_42: Yeah his charm and politeness is definitely one of my favourite parts of the game
(07:00:43 AM) Syd: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pamela_Adlon
(07:01:33 AM) medacris: And Bobby Hill too!
(07:02:12 AM) Cheeseness: Sam's bored by his imagination :D
(07:02:18 AM) Syd: These games must have been fun for the animators to work on.
(07:02:58 AM) medacris: The animation's still pretty good!
(07:03:58 AM) medacris: I'm getting a Warner Bros. Animaniacs, maybe Batman: TAS feel from some of the designs?
(07:04:22 AM) Cheeseness: Trusty crowbar
(07:04:44 AM) medacris: Having played Half-Life 2, I can agree with this.
(07:05:47 AM) kickedit: eww. where is he hiding that crowbar?
(07:06:09 AM) Cheeseness: At PAX, Ron talked about aiming for a traditional animation look ended up defining Humungous' games
(07:06:10 AM) medacris: Same place Max hides his gun?
(07:06:26 AM) medacris: I love that. Thank you, Ron.
(07:07:44 AM) Cheeseness: Apparently they'd gone to some trade show type thing (pre-E3) and seen somebody else doing traditional animation when HG was still aiming for pixel art, and started panicking about their stuff not looking good enough
(07:07:56 AM) Babloyi left the room (quit: Ping timeout: 180 seconds).
(07:08:35 AM) udoncat [78943731@hide-50D287EE.mibbit.com] entered the room.
(07:08:42 AM) Syd: Not the red button!
(07:08:48 AM) Cheeseness: Hey udoncat :)
(07:08:55 AM) medacris: Edna Mode would like to point out the problem with capes here.
(07:08:57 AM) udoncat: Good morning :)
(07:09:01 AM) Permafry_42: i loved the big red button from ratchet and clank
(07:09:13 AM) Permafry_42: morning =D
(07:09:16 AM) medacris: Hi udoncat!
(07:09:47 AM) medacris: Lady Lightning...wonder if someone at Square-Enix liked this game?
(07:10:09 AM) kickedit: that is a pretty big red button.
(07:10:37 AM) Cheeseness: I like that even after pressing the big red button, Sam still pokes and prods everything
(07:11:22 AM) udoncat: Mr Someone? Best name
(07:11:27 AM) Cheeseness: :D
(07:11:53 AM) Cheeseness: Oh, it's Otto!
(07:12:00 AM) Syd: Hah, the boat from the previous game
(07:12:16 AM) Cheeseness: Mmm, cheese
(07:12:25 AM) udoncat: Hm... there's a theme happening here
(07:12:29 AM) medacris: Mm indeed.
(07:12:35 AM) kickedit: I'm sensing a theme...
(07:12:41 AM) udoncat: Do you like goats cheese?
(07:12:49 AM) Cheeseness: I love goats
(07:13:08 AM) Syd: Complementary nuts, that's clever
(07:14:10 AM) medacris: I believe you have...are my stapler?
(07:14:26 AM) Cheeseness: Shame it's not red
(07:14:28 AM) udoncat: Nobody isn't like Somebody?
(07:14:48 AM) medacris: Mm. Would've been a good reference.
(07:15:08 AM) Syd: I believe you have my stapler. http://i.imgur.com/mQ9ri9e.jpg
(07:15:22 AM) Cheeseness: :D
(07:15:56 AM) Syd: Well, the staple remover is red. Close enough. :D
(07:15:59 AM) medacris: Yesss. Milton is my favorite. My teacher had his stapler.
(07:16:12 AM) Cheeseness: Looks like Somebody is always trying to undermine that other guy's work
(07:16:24 AM) Cheeseness: Oh, Someone
(07:16:29 AM) medacris: Alternate-universe Milton is very protective of his red staple remover.
(07:16:48 AM) medacris: Yesss, photocopying butts.
(07:17:18 AM) medacris: I kinda wish he had a vampire voice, with those fangs
(07:17:31 AM) udoncat: That would be pretty cool
(07:17:52 AM) medacris: They always looked like vampires to me as a kid.
(07:18:20 AM) udoncat: Oh no, were we the tomato sauce?
(07:18:52 AM) medacris: I know how this conversation's gonna end up.
(07:19:33 AM) medacris: So the trash can is Bill Cosby?
(07:20:08 AM) medacris: He's like Sasha Nein. "Are you the cleaning lady?"
(07:20:15 AM) Cheeseness: :D
(07:20:53 AM) Peder left the room (quit: Client exited).
(07:20:56 AM) Cheeseness: Is that the dancing furniture from the first game?
(07:21:20 AM) medacris: "Chairman"
(07:21:43 AM) Permafry_42: yup
(07:21:54 AM) Syd: Puns everywhere
(07:21:54 AM) Permafry_42: all the pictures besides the board are from the first game
(07:22:36 AM) Cheeseness: Ah, yeah
(07:22:37 AM) medacris: Raz's dance?
(07:22:52 AM) Cheeseness: >_<
(07:23:10 AM) medacris: Sharknado!
(07:25:03 AM) medacris: I like how he jumps everywhere
(07:25:21 AM) Cheeseness: :D
(07:25:27 AM) medacris: Reminds me of My Little P-
(07:25:53 AM) udoncat: Wait!
(07:26:01 AM) udoncat: You missed a jigsaw piece
(07:26:12 AM) Permafry_42: k i'll get it in a sec
(07:26:23 AM) Cheeseness: Syd!
(07:26:33 AM) Syd: :D
(07:28:12 AM) medacris: Hi Syd!
(07:28:53 AM) Cheeseness: At PAX, Ron talked about how he came across this very young kid who was playing Monkey Island. They couldn't read or understand what the plot was, but they were clicking on everything and having a good time. That led him to want to explore what a game specifically aimed at giving kids that kind of experience could be like
(07:29:09 AM) medacris: I really like that idea.
(07:29:32 AM) Cheeseness: And that's how we got these games ^_^
(07:29:43 AM) udoncat: Fatty Bear was fun
(07:29:54 AM) Cheeseness: I think he said the kid was 6, but it seems odd that a six year old couldn't read
(07:30:18 AM) Cheeseness: Ha ha, the carrot
(07:30:23 AM) kickedit: not odd at all actually
(07:30:28 AM) udoncat: Oh, it's a beard... good :)
(07:30:35 AM) medacris: Maybe he could read, but not well.
(07:30:49 AM) Syd: Return of the freedom-fighter carrot.
(07:31:36 AM) Syd: A 6 year old kid might have trouble reading fast enough for the speed the text usually went at.
(07:32:10 AM) Cheeseness: He seemed to be implying that they couldn't read the verbs and just worked out that clicking on those areas did particular things
(07:32:55 AM) Cheeseness: Woah, tiny Sam!
(07:33:07 AM) Babar [Miranda@B64560A4.E65F9C5D.83382450.IP] entered the room.
(07:33:29 AM) Cheeseness: A puzzle!
(07:33:32 AM) GameClubFan_612462 [4670389f@hide-BF4D4B18.mibbit.com] entered the room.
(07:33:35 AM) medacris: babar!
(07:34:03 AM) udoncat: Hi Babar and Fan
(07:34:25 AM) Cheeseness: So happy :D
(07:35:43 AM) Permafry_42: i love the uv filter gag
(07:36:08 AM) Babar left the room (quit: Ping timeout: 180 seconds).
(07:36:11 AM) Cheeseness: Whoops, I wasn't paying attention. How did the wingnut not get embiggened when Sam was returnted to normal size?
(07:36:30 AM) udoncat: He's already finished his growth spurts?
(07:36:40 AM) Syd: Adventure game logic :P
(07:36:43 AM) Permafry_42: because hammer space isn't effected by shrinkrays DUH
(07:36:45 AM) Cheeseness: :D
(07:36:51 AM) udoncat: :P
(07:37:16 AM) GameClubFan_612462: same voice as darkwing duck's daughter?
(07:37:40 AM) Syd: Perhaps. His VA has done a lot of work
(07:37:55 AM) Syd: At least, if you're referring to Sam's voice
(07:38:04 AM) Syd: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pamela_Adlon
(07:39:43 AM) medacris: Aw, cute vaccuum cleaner
(07:39:55 AM) Syd: I sense a puzzle in this room!
(07:40:05 AM) udoncat: :P
(07:40:17 AM) udoncat: Aw, that button was not a real button
(07:40:26 AM) medacris: HON HON HON
(07:41:35 AM) Syd: I recognized that second jingle. What was it from?
(07:42:55 AM) Syd: A lot of stuff got left in these trees somehow.
(07:43:33 AM) Cheeseness: Even the kitchen sink
(07:43:42 AM) medacris: I recognize it from Bad Hat Harry, the company that did House
(07:45:25 AM) Permafry_42: btw those storage containers are only a puzzle in a different variation of the game
(07:45:43 AM) Cheeseness: Oh?
(07:46:01 AM) Permafry_42: the game has several slight versions
(07:46:26 AM) Cheeseness: As in different releases, or different modes you can select?
(07:47:32 AM) Permafry_42: different slighlty diferent modes
(07:47:44 AM) Cheeseness: Interesting ^_^
(07:47:45 AM) Permafry_42: each having a certain combination of puzzles
(07:48:00 AM) Permafry_42: sort of like how the cave has multiple character stories
(07:48:08 AM) Permafry_42: same with the first and third
(07:48:24 AM) Cheeseness: Neat
(07:51:38 AM) GameClubFan_612462 left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
(07:51:59 AM) medacris: Someone pointed out that Pixar later made series with cars, spies, fish, and superheroes, just like Humongous.
(07:52:14 AM) Cheeseness: heg
(07:52:17 AM) Cheeseness: heh
(07:53:54 AM) medacris: Wait, Freddi Fish is female?
(07:54:07 AM) Permafry_42: pretty sure she is
(07:55:22 AM) medacris: I'm reading the TVTropes entries on Humongous
(07:58:52 AM) medacris: Question: Will games like Deponia be played here? Or Edna and Harvey?
(08:00:28 AM) Cheeseness: medacris: Potentially, yeah!
(08:00:53 AM) medacris: I'll put in my suggestion for them, I like what I've seen.
(08:01:16 AM) Syd: The games streamed are mostly suggested by the streamers themselves, so if any of our streamers are up for playing those games, I imagine we'll stream them eventually.
(08:01:19 AM) Cheeseness: We don't have many streamers at the moment, so to make the load a bit more pleasant, we just go with whatever people feel like doing
(08:01:55 AM) medacris: Harvey's New Eyes is one of the darkest games I've ever seen played. I don't have either unfortunately.
(08:02:10 AM) Permafry_42: me neither unfortunately
(08:03:13 AM) Syd: I've watched the Deponia games streamed on another website.
(08:03:32 AM) Cheeseness: medacris: If you backed the DFA, there's a mostly complete list of stuff we've done at the bottom of the table of contents page if you want to have a look through http://doublefine.com/dfa
(08:04:07 AM) Permafry_42: ok there's going to be an animation in a moment that can only be accessed by pressing the arrow keys while clicking on something
(08:04:37 AM) Permafry_42: be warned that it may not be suitable for the game's intended audience...
(08:04:50 AM) Cheeseness: Ha ha, this
(08:05:13 AM) Cheeseness: Toilet humour
(08:05:19 AM) kickedit: oh god
(08:05:53 AM) Syd: I missed it. The one moment I'm checking another tab.
(08:05:55 AM) kickedit: and then he litterally tears up the bathroom
(08:05:59 AM) medacris: I did, I'll take a look
(08:06:06 AM) Syd: I'll check it in the archive later.
(08:06:16 AM) Permafry_42: be warned; it's bad
(08:06:16 AM) medacris: Agh, I missed it too. I know what it is tho
(08:06:29 AM) Cheeseness: For p(r)osterity: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nQF6l_NBBV0
(08:06:43 AM) Syd: Oh wait, found it on Youtube
(08:07:38 AM) Syd: Oh god, he wiped with his cape.
(08:07:44 AM) Cheeseness: >_<
(08:07:53 AM) medacris: I do not want to be anywhere near that cape now.
(08:08:01 AM) Syd: I imagine they liked the animation too much to totally removed it, and just made it difficult for a kid to run across it
(08:08:01 AM) Cheeseness: You can imagine that everybody can smell him coming
(08:08:05 AM) Syd: *remove
(08:08:24 AM) medacris: Animators in general do that all the time
(08:08:56 AM) Syd: Ah yeah, I remember looking through the Source SDK and running across some... interesting animations for some of the characters.
(08:09:56 AM) medacris: How so?
(08:10:44 AM) Syd: Somewhat suggestive stuff. I remember one in particular for Alyx.
(08:10:55 AM) medacris: Oh dear.
(08:11:00 AM) Cheeseness: Shall we touch on that after the session? ^_^
(08:11:10 AM) Permafry_42: I think that makes it the end of the game
(08:11:12 AM) Cheeseness: (rather than get too sidetracked)
(08:11:15 AM) medacris: Yeah. Wait till after.
(08:12:53 AM) medacris: *paf*
(08:13:58 AM) Cheeseness: :D
(08:14:08 AM) Syd: Thanks for streaming, Permafry_42!
(08:14:12 AM) Cheeseness: It's snowing on the moon!
(08:14:18 AM) Permafry_42: No prob =D
(08:14:20 AM) medacris: Hurray! Thanks, Permafry!
(08:14:22 AM) udoncat: Thanks for the stream
(08:14:27 AM) Cheeseness: Yeah, thanks for streaming ^_^
(08:14:37 AM) Cheeseness: lol, Otto
(08:15:18 AM) Permafry_42: has the credits looped yet?
(08:15:27 AM) Cheeseness: I wasn't watching, but the animations have
(08:15:47 AM) medacris: Raining taxis!
(08:16:18 AM) Permafry_42: looks like the credits still have some more people
(08:16:55 AM) udoncat: Got to go. Thanks very much for the stream and chat!
(08:17:04 AM) Cheeseness: Tanks for coming, udoncat :)
(08:17:05 AM) udoncat: Bye
(08:17:05 AM) Permafry_42: k cya!
(08:17:08 AM) Syd: See ya, udoncat
(08:17:14 AM) medacris: Seeya, udoncat! Take care.
(08:17:23 AM) udoncat left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
(08:18:03 AM) Cheeseness: Woo
(08:18:06 AM) Permafry_42: That was fun =D
(08:18:14 AM) Syd: Yep. :)
