Galak-Z: The [chat]mensional

bloodyroarxxbloodyroarxx Casa GrandeRegistered User regular
80’s spaceship anime and arcade-gaming meld with ultra-modern physics and A.I. in a skill-demanding, procedurally generated rogue-lite adventure! Be the hero in a world that oozes classic Saturday morning anime but plays like a tough, modern, tactical shooter. Try to survive the hostile environments of deep space, battling warring factions full of unique and cunning enemies. Unlock ever more powerful upgrades as you learn the secret of the GALAK-Z, and die and die again as you valiantly struggle to become the ultimate pilot – finally good enough to beat what GALAK-Z throws at you!
Features

“Rogue-lite” structure with hand-tuned, procedurally assembled level elements and enemy placement mean every episode playthrough is unique, but persistent rewards mean no death is wasted (and you will die).
A deep, nuanced control system allows for total control over your ship or mech (did we mention your ship can transform into a giant robot with a move set of its own?)
Cyntient A.I.-powered enemies analyze, communicate about, and react to their environment and the player’s behavior for intense dogfights
Evil Imperials! Deranged Space Pirates! Transforming robots! Itano Circus missile swarms! EXPLOSIONS! LIFE! LOVE! DEATH! DEATH AGAIN!

    many years ago

    found writing much more fun (and passable money wise) but tired of that

    I think it is fan art, but the character is from Xenosaga 2

    Huh.

    Gawker just published Donald Trump's cell number.

    Guess they're done pretending to have any of those ethics things. Probably easier this way.

    Man, I would have liked to have had another few months to pay down loans before moving apartments. I'd be able to just crash a friend's place if not for owning 2 cats.

    Lousy freeloading cats.

    does this person have a bank account? if you have their info you can go to a branch and make a transfer and it will wind up there in AUD

    you'll probably have to pay a fee though to make the wire, not sure how much it might be

    Of course it happened in Philli. I couldn't be less surprised. It was going to be decapitated at Philli, Baltimore or Florida.

    I am in DFW airport, eating up the precious airport foods of your state.

    I like connecting through here; efficient design for moving between gates.

    No, he works at an anarchist bookshop. Was just visiting for a few months and needed to "lease" a car, so he bought one from a friend and then sold it back to him. I have cash in hand and need to wire it to him. He suggested a website but it looks pretty expensive so I thought I'd check with you accomplished men and women of international renown.

    Also how come, I can't get pretty elevator mechanics. I've got 14 butt ugly rednecks, a marginally attractive black man and a 6 ft 7 native american.

    On this day in history:

    Christopher Columbus left Spain with the Niña, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria.
    Germany declared war on France and kicked off World War 1.
    The nuclear submarine, The Nautilus, became the first vessel to cross the North Pole underwater.
    I was born.

    It sounds like there's a great niche open for a Hooters or Knockouts style elevator company.

    Galak-Z looks proper hard, I watched the dev play it here:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3EUq1jwl79Y

    The endgame is all about movement, dodging and setting up enemies to fight each other apparently, not a straight shooter.

    I have a feeling I will be terrible at this game but it is the kind of game that will make some real nice speedrunning.

    You need their routing number and bank account number usually.

    Some US banks you can set this up actually online for domestic transfers. It is how I pay rent actually.

    For international the same info is required just need to make sure the bank does international transfers.
