Well in nineties a lot of such things got never even spit on by a graphic designer. It’s not retro, it’s just pure incompetence. I don’t understand why would anybody want to suffer through such awfulness.
@@YellowKing1986 It's kinda good awful though. I can't play more than 5-10 minutes at a time or suffer a severe headache but it's strangely intriguing and fun to play.
@@pigeondamigion569 I know that games that are just about cool graphics are shallow and good looks doesn't mean shit when it comes to gameplay. But this is somehow over the threshold for me :D I get what you say about the headache, it makes me dizzy too just looking at it on video.
Unless you know about the gaga mall glitch before im pretty sure it got patched made like 4 million and i still cant get rid of all of it a safe place to store your money in the stockmarket is regular pancreases the price doesnt change since no one really needs them but they still have a single dollar value ive got almost 400k stored in them
Yeah, the graphics is shit too, you can talk with random people and they all sound like they have been lobotomized, and the guns are the stars of the show. Oh, and not forget that DEEP PLOT which you need at least 137 IQ to understand. So yeah, this is basically EYE 2: now with more EYES!
@@quint3ssent1a Fun fact: A lot of the weapons in this game are based on actual old/failed weapon concepts (With the exception of the USAS-12 looking one)
@@thezambambo2184 yeah, i figured it when i got "weapon made from accursed alloy" which shoots 2-round bursts. Ngl, "cursed weapon" is pretty accurate description for AN-94, with it's weird ergonomic and crazy inner working.
if you invest everything you own in gaga regardless of its current status and just wait after completing the mall level leave the game on over night and youll have millions i had about 4 and a half million by the time i stopped.
I am shocked that you are the first person I've seen referencing MDE in conjunction with this game. The art styles and whole aesthetic are extremely similar, I would not be surprised if the creator was a MDE fan.
I once picked an AUGMENTED BRAIN from some poor shmuck. When i opened the "parts" tab to see the price dynamic on this particular piece of meat, i saw that it's price was steadily diving from the start, it's been continuous red line gently sloping down. Damn, I thought. Nobody needs a spare brain in these times. I probably should've invested in livers.

@@dragonhunter4592 Thank you. So, aside from eventually having free respawns, what exactly does it mean and what's the effects of having you feelings dulled?
@@isaiahsmith6016 Basically, it's a simplified version of World Tendency from Demon's Souls: - "Divine Link"/white border lets you open special doors to secret weapons, areas and eventually secret levels. You can think of it as your White Tendency. - "Flesh Automaton"/mechanical border is an in-between state that has no particular benefits, basically it's Grey Tendency. - "Power In Misery" is the equivalent to Black Tendency, i.e. a "corrupted" state where you're essentially a zombie with a gun. You can eat people to regain 1HP, your respawns are free and you can open meat doors. There's also a 4th state which i won't spoil, and it's basically a NG+ version of Flesh Automaton that affects the levels in a number of ways and is very difficult to get rid of.
@@just_matt214 ahhh. That makes sense. Thank you for the explanation. It's a shame that I didn't get to enjoy Demon's Souls Online component but I get what you're saying.
I can't believe how much fish go for in your game...mine haven't gone above I think $12. That being said that makes it easy to buy thousands of them at $1 and sell them for around $10 for ez money.
It’s amazing, not a meme. It’s got so many ways to play and it’s very funny. It’s also getting a healthy amount of updates with crazy features like climbing walls and turning gravity upside down. Defo worth a purchase.

The title alone sounds like a tomato gag
This UI gives me "Vrangers - One For The Road"-vibes.
Tomatoe "drunken mass murdering megalomaniac im a crisis curses and threatens all that love him while a really cool line moves upwards" gaming
1:50 graphic design and user interfaces is my passion :3

It always comes back to sewer-burgers.

What exactly does "Divine Light Severed" as well as the other death states mean?
It means god has abandoned you, and humanity, as the species transcends the use of a soul through horrific body modification.
