fuck off, and by fuck off i mean fuck off right back here and apologize

i cant get past the second level level 2, you made the game too hard, i hate hard games, maybe you should remake the game as a point and click adventure, like myst, i think that would be better for people like me who are bad at hard games, the game is too challenging when you have to press more than one button on your mouse and i cant do that its too hard, you would never have to do that in myst and i dont know why you made the game like that, the game is also a liar game, the first jump is easy, but then the second jump is really hard and you cant do it unless you press two buttons on the mouse and make a bubble and then jump on the bubble and bounce (dont know how i was supposed to know to do that???) it took me 10 minutes to figure out that you had to use a bubble by pressing two buttons, at the same time, on the mouse and make a bubble to bounce off of and get to higher places which let me beat the first level, this was too hard for me and i didnt like it, this game is nothing like myst which is also a computer game with similar controls since you use the mouse but in that game you only have to press the buttons one at a time on the mouse and it doesnt make you press them together at the same time which i think is probably better since you only have to press one button on the mouse instead of pressing two buttons at the same time by pressing them with two fingers, in a normal game you only have to press one at a time like in the game myst where you really only need to press one button, also the sky is always grey and i think you should add more graphics in the sky, when you make the game more like myst dont forget to make the sky another color because i think that the grey is a little boring and you might end up losing players because its grey when they are used to the sky being more than one color in other games, myst has a lot of colors in the sky and i think you should make the sky like the sky in that game, so maybe you should play that to see how they made the sky, because in this game you made it only grey and it made me think that it was rainy or something or in a snow storm or maybe blizzard weather, but there wasnt any rain sounds or rain graphics or slippery floor so i dont think it was raining in the game so maybe it was just a cloudy day, i do like that all the game levels in the game that you made were like little islands, i think they were islands maybe because there is water at the bottom and i really like that theyre in the water like that, i think its cool that the worlds are islands because it reminds me of the myst game for the computer, also there is bubbles which is not like myst but i think thats okay too, but maybe when you remake the game you could get rid of those (just saying?) i think that would be better because it can be confusing to jump on a bubble because that doesnt happen in real life, normally when you blow a bubble and jump on it it just goes away or maybe pops, but in your game when i was playing i would bounce on them which didnt make sense because they popped and so i would fall after bouncing one time, so maybe if you do keep the bubbles they could bounce more than once to make it fair for the player, i also didnt like the girl voice in the game that says mean things, i was playing this game and she kept saying mean things to me and i didnt like that because in myst no one says anything bad to you so you should remove her, she says mean things and hates the player, and i dont think its good that she does that, the canons in the game might be too scary as well and i think it would be better if you removed those, maybe they could be lizards that spit at you and make lizard noises, just an idea.

thats what im sayin

lol girlie this app uses like, 5 pixels total. im not sure a 4k display would really have that much of a benefit in this case. also supporting apple products is just generally kind of a nightmare

oh yeah the paramore cover is what got me around to giving paramore a real shot. kind of a carly rae situation if that makes sense? their version feels way more intense than the original which is kind of surprising, but ig thats just what 40 years of loudness acclimation does to a song lol, i love. paramore fucking rocks ngl.

it usually works fine through wine

we are?? woah, this is great news!

actually, the next release is going to have one color i think. probably for the best

aww :( why not?

uuuuh, no, maybe?
anyways, you should go listen to "speaking in tongues" by the talking heads. its probably my favorite of their releases overall. burning down the house is one of the coolest openers known to man and the whole album after that is  just banger after banger. it really takes you for a ride and you cant really predict what david byrne and the gang are going to throw at you next. most of the instrumentals feel so unorthodox (they have that campy halloween-y vibe that i like) which is to say nothing of the vocals. it borders on the edge of uneasy comedy thats only really undercut by the stern nature of most of the lyrics. no where is this more evident than on the closing track "this must be the place". the instrumental almost feels unsure of itself, all at once its upbeat and somehow deeply sorrowful. and its all brought together by these beautiful lyrics painting a vivid picture of an earnest and pedestrian love thats hopeful in its simplicity. its easily one of my favorite songs and its always a treat when you get to listen to it.

clipnote update 2037 btw.

running windows is actually just a nightmare and i dont suggest anyone do this :) just use wine

eee ee e    e  e e e eeeee e e e e

haunted OOOooOooooOOOO

2036

not planning on open sourcing the current code, its trash, you could make something better in like a month lol

thats more than likely a false positive. its pretty common for software like this 

i am killing you with a comically oversized rock

theres this album called "masked dancers" by brave little abacus. its not as well known as their later release, "just got back from the discomfort". but its very much worth listening to today. the bands grasp on math rock instrumentation and its midwest tones combine surprisingly well with the off kilter implementation of noise and samples. despite shaping a lot of midwest emo conventions that we see today, there really isnt anything else like it.

you should probably listen to it at some point :)

it doesnt. if your antivirus is flagging it thats relatively common for weird pieces of software like this, windows is pretty overzealous with flagging anything thats not commonly used. unless you downloaded it from somewhere weird, clipnote doesnt contain malware.

thats usually a windows ink issue, try disabling that

eee e eee eeeee eee eee eeee

good question. to answer that, ive hired this team of scientists

gomen gomen

that depends on your ram honestly

yeah ofc, this project file isnt the best, nashs is probably better, i mostly made this one for myself

currently there is no undo because i never finished clipnote, heres a list of keybinds tho

TAB - open/close menu
SPACE - play/pause
R,E,Q,F - quick menus
W,S - brush size
A,D - move between frames

i would assume thats due to the fact that clipnote has a bunch of web and file related calls, and windows antivirus software just really hates anything that isnt well known because its paranoid af, from an antiviruses perspective it has no idea what the code is ACTUALLY doing, it just knows it COULD do harm. as long as you downloaded from itch.io it should be safe. logically, the most recent clipnote file has been up since 2019 and no ones had an issue, if my software was doing anything actually malicious my itch account would probably just be gone ngl.

not currently, i dont own any MAC devices unfortunately

definitely not the current version for a variety of reasons, but if i ever do finish a C version i do plan on making that open source if the day ever comes.

the big C and P buttons on the frames menu can copy frames, and i think layers? i dont remember

so true

irl ash's butterfree arc but with a bird 10/10 nice jpegs

yeah ive been considering updating this since i think it kinda sucks ass, but for now if you want some example material, literally every gzdoom mod is technically open source, you can just open the .pk3/.wad files so go nuts (just dont steal any code obviously)

i literally cant unless i either give YOYO games a bunch of money and port all the existing code to GML2, or i just remake the whole thing from scratch. dont really want to give shitty companies money, and im a bit too busy with other things to rewrite the whole thing when im not THAT hyped about it anymore.
protip: dont ever use software that costs any amount of money to make a game, shit aint worth it :)

is crouch jumping intended? im pretty sure i skipped some parts of the game by just crouch jumping, like over the little green thing to get to the axe, or up to the log that needs to be cut down. really interested to play this again if you ever update it!

its actually insane how dedicated you are to this concept. mad respect!

you spend them in the shop

i didnt use linux much when i made clipnote initially and porting GML was such a fucking hassle that i didnt even bother. i use linux basically exclusively now so if i do ever return to this a linux version would be better supported than the windows version ngl

lmao there is a shitty hidden raycaster engine, so kinda almost sorta?

ask me this again in 5-8 year
