oh, an old one: [5:35 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: why didn't @WillKirkby ever edit the code so there's a 1/500 chance an octopus spawns in the clouds -snip- [5:36 PM] WillKirkby: Dammit Jim, I'm a render programmer not a gameplay programmer

There's a hot air balloon in Dino Park after you beat Mr. Hates, that flies up and away the moment the cutscene with the Adventurers saying goodbye finishes. It moves pretty fast so you have to spin the camera around immediately to see it. I checked the game object list with the debug menu and it's hidden/disabled once it completes its path, so you can't even teleport to it and hang out up there when it stops moving. I suppose the balloon that appears on LEGO Island later in the game is intended to be the same one, like how the pterodactyl also follows you back. And of course the same balloon you fight Mr. Hates in. Bonus: You may have never noticed this as well; the natives start in their camp and then run out to the places where they dance. Usually this happens during the cutscene with the Adventurers so you wouldn't really see unless you skipped through it. One of them walks through the gate, lol.

[6:03 PM] Preckle: According to all known traffic laws, a bat should not be able to drive a mobile [6:04 PM] Mahoroa: The bat of course, drives anyway [6:04 PM] WillKirkby: Because he's the goddamn batman. [6:04 PM] Preckle: lol [6:04 PM] WillKirkby: Black and yellow black and yellow

Hey. I watched the LEGO Batman Movie. Here are my thoughts. My spoilery thoughts. That's most of what I had on my mind I think. see you in a few months for ninjago!

Time for official pics of that CMF series! "is our female superhero marketable enough?" "is it pink" "no" "then you know what you must do"

I watched the LEGO Batman Movie as well just a couple hours ago. Pretty cool. I'm also hyped for the Ninjago movie, after seeing this one I'm positive it won't be half bad. Maybe not even a quarter bad.

Now that walking underwater is a thing, I need to reconfigure the music boundaries. Also, the elevator music is supposed to play all the time but not be audible once you walk away from the elevator. I'll fix it eventually so it stops when you're not in it, though. Yeah this is a known bug. You can trigger it by going to the pause menu while in the car, then returning. You can fix it by pressing F, I think. I'll fix this probably for the next release. Yes, technically it's supposed to happen if you leave the racetrack in any way other than the actual exit. The exit is supposed to put you back on the Island though. Once the "unstick" function is gone, this shouldn't be an issue any more. Uh oh, it seems like pressing "Q" to go to the Quit page of the Pause menu will cause that. Not sure why, will definitely look into it and have it fixed before the next release. Pressing "P" to open the Pause menu or to Quit works fine, though. Currently no idea what causes that, but there might be leftover code somewhere that seems to be disabling the player entirely (except the player camera). I would love to help but I need more information. What were you doing/trying to do when it crashed? What system are you on (Windows/Mac/Linux 32/64-bit)? Was there a dialog saying that an output log was created when it crashed?

Yesterday, someone on the RRU Discord suggested the idea of a top-down LRR game in the style of Lego Loco. I have begun making sprites for such a game! Here is a gif I put together of a Raider carrying an Energy Crystal, to demonstrate the sprite style. Of course, I still have to make the sprites for him walking up and down, as well as his arm-swinging animation for when he's walking without holding anything. I'll also make sprites of him being scared and using tools and weapons.

Small fix for the nitpick. This one's for you

Here's something curious, from https://trends.google.com/: Roblox has always dominated the other games mentioned on these graphs, but it's also had a massive spike beginning just over a year ago: Some other notes: Blockland was ahead of its time (came out as an unofficial free LEGO game in 2004 and got most of its attention soon after, with the non-LEGO commercial release in 2007... here's some history on that), and LMO never got much attention at all. Here's the graph just with official LEGO games - note I haven't included Chima Online in any of these as its searches would be divided between a bunch of possibilities (Chima Online, LEGO Chima Online, Legends of Chima Online, LEGO Legends of Chima Online, etc):

can you be more specific

They forgot to mention/show the million-or-so "Obby" courses, "Who killed ________" courses, "________ Tycoon" levels and "Survive the disasters" maps that plague the site, so naturally I'm claiming this trailer is ONE BIG LIE.

That actually looks pretty neat!
