A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

it's sort of like a British carbonara
I think there's a joke in there about a town bicycle
Social meme theft 🤷
Definitely using this reaction meme
I also needed this for my meme storage, but found a crisper image.
Impressive, Very nice. Now let's see Paul Allen's card.
Who has more pixels?!
What does that actually mean...? Is it hard? Is it like... An entry point to cozy games? I thought that was already stardew valley for a lot of folks? Does it mean its a big expansion on what the genre usually looks like...?
Edit: seems like the last
It obviously means the horse can double jump.
It's not a horse goddamnit!
It means she wants SEO
She explains her reasoning in the article, but it's a pretty tortured comparison.
Geez, that's a whole lot of dreaming and unfounded hype-building, especially for a game that will likely never see an actual release.
Why would you think Ape would not release it as he's planned? He went many years of development into his first game before publishing.
Because he's an extreme perfectionist, and it will never be perfect.
There's a GREAT book about the making of different games called Blood, Sweat, and Pixels and it includes a chapter on Stardew Valley. Pretty much the only reason Stardew was released was because Ape had pretty bad financial troubles. He won't be in that situation again thanks to Stardew's success.
HC will never be good enough (in Ape's super-perfectionist mind), so he'll keep working on it forever. And he won't bring anyone in to help him finish it for the same reason. I mean, we're already six years into development and he still hasn't indicated anything about being remotely close, or even said "I want to finish these things before I release v1." He wants to release a perfect game that does everything he could dream of as v1, and doesn't want to compromise with anything less.
It's basically a curse of his and TBH I feel bad for the guy. Do read the book (or at least the Stardew vignette) if you're a fan of his work - it was very enlightening.
so, to get the game to be released, we have to get rid of all money the creator has? Have they ever done anything marginally related to something Nintendo owns?
I think we just need to convince him to donate too a good cause, and then he'll realize oh no, he donated everything! Then he releases and its all good!
Interesting. I think I will, thanks!
Nice. That is the Elden-Soulsbornekiro of comments.
I strive to make the Kuon of comments. Obscure and not very fun to experience, but bringing some stuff to the table and sometimes grotesque.
That sure is a sentence.
This reads like an SAT question
#If Chrono Trigger was Final Fantasy III
#Earthbound is for reals legit like
#The Legend of Zelda: Links Awakening
#for nerds
If that article was Medal of Honour, the next article will surely be Call of Duty for straight-up bullshit-munchers.
