glitch: a wacky new mmorpg played in browser

this game is pretty much the opposite of horrid facebook go-nowhere endless gayness. it's surreal weird go-nowhere endless awesomeness instead.

tbf a lot of its appeal depends on how willing you are to be charmed by it... i eventually gave in, mostly because of the sheer amount of funny writing in the game

it reminds me of psychonauts, a little

this looks amazing

the writing really makes the game come to life

how quickly do they turn the requests around?

as soon as the game's live, you'll be in.

thx for the twitter link - rss'd

Up!

*tries to get in*

if anyone wants to hit me up on facebook, i will give you a spinach cupcake or something when i finally get in (i have no idea what actually happens in this game but i'm assuming i can make a spinach cupcake)

zs, are we facebook friends? hit me up via ilx mail and i'll friend you and get you in

cool, thanks! *sends message*

oh man, i've never made a spinach cupcake but there's spinach in the game and there are cupcakes so i don't see why not!!!

wait a minute, i just logged in and my character is at level 8. i thought you had to start all over?

friend me back and i'll getcha in

beta isn't over yet.

wtf, today is your birthday!? happy b-day forks!

happy birthday forks! i left a present outside your door

gross

Interesting that some offensive spells are showing up - martial imagination etc

I think that's to fight in the oncoming Rook war.

hey forks, sorry to bug you on your birthday (and when you're doing me a favor!) but were you able to send an invite? i get the feeling everyone is making spinach cupcakes and i want to provide!

zs, you have to connect through facebook on the signup page
then i can see you and add you

i have you as a friend now, but it doesn't see you as wanting to join

and thanks for birthday wishes!

zs, you have to connect through facebook on the signup page
then i can see you and add you

oh, duh! that makes sense. alright, i'll try to get on later tonight then. thanks!

reconsidering my decision to try out a million different skills when the next reset happens - it's cool to try out stuff, but you end up having to carry so many different objects, and it's hard to get very far unless you really focus on stuff

like maybe next time i'll just do animal husbandry OR plants/soil, but not both. the cooking stuff spirals crazy out of control

the crops and animal stuff seems more suited to solo play than mining/bog harvesting/etc., it seems

once you get like eight or nine bigger bags and toolboxes, that problem goes away.

i like being a cook

i also like just giving stuff away to random people. It's a good game for good karma.
Has anyone died yet? I'm tempted to do it just to see what happens but I'm a little nervous about it. I hear you have to get out of hell?

I hear you have to get out of hell?

not until you give satan a beelzebub BLT!

this game is so built up in my mind that i'm confident i can make a beelzebub BLT

i almost died thanks to not paying any attention one day

Beelzebub BLT quest SOUNDS like something you'd find in this quest.
ZS, go to the glitch page and "share on facebook" or whatever so i can add you already.

i'm at work and the glitch page is blocked.

i've died a bunch of times, usually crafting something and not watching my energy meter. you end up in hell and have to squish grapes to get out. yup

apparently someone tagged the page as "potentially not tedious and bureaucratic", so it's automatically blocked

bummer. probably one of the lizard people from the office of bureaucracy.

again, if peeps go to visit http://glitch.com/fb/ and are friends with me on fb i have 3 additional invites to hand out

i just did the facebook thing, hopefully i'm showing up now

wow do you have good timing! chk yer email or whatever

good lord this is addicting

welcome to our world

ugh this game sounds horrible, sorry.

ur forgiven. now go in peace.

mining and smelting and grinding and making elements holy crap this game

btw i am about to learn the teleport level where i can summon you against your will, but i promise to only do this to yall if i think it will be really funny it is essential to the game.

i have like a million quests to do but i just wanna mine and mine and mine

i'm learning levitation
and just got that attack thing

I dunno if this is useful to any of you, but I've found wandering around the ancestral lands you get much better quality quoins (for instance, ~60xp over the usual ~6), so it's worth doing that at least once a day to stock up. Though the bandits can be annoying.

I'm still uncertain as to whether I'll be prepared to start over again come reset, but I've definitely been enjoying taking part so far. I want to start learning the engineering stuff but I'm too tempted by the attack skill.

wait what there are bandits
