How does one modify the save file?
Looks like the savefiles are plain text editable, if not exactly clear what everything does. I imagine turning a lot of the 0s in higher numbers would result in the mentioned shenanigans.

Depends on the cake batter. It might not be very safe to eat (uncooked eggs, etc.), but cake batter is often rather delicious.

The stirring spoon, it must be licked clean. Ommelnommel.

... yeah, pretty much. Metroid had some cancellation conditions though, didn't it? This thing... doesn't. You never really have to stop.

Sometimes pie is just pie. Except when it's pi. Pie is unrelated to the metaphor, though. Platonic relationship would probably be more like... a biscuit.

That was intentional, after getting an elasticity robe via random and then seeing if I could get it to bounce itself higher, and then noticing I was damaging the dummy while I was careening around the hub like a pinball on five different varieties of speed. It ended up with... that. Repulsion wand + elasticity robe. You never slow down, cannot be hurt, and one-shot (or at least one-passthrough) doctorate level bosses. It is utterly ridiculous.

Also one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen in a videogame. +1, magicmaker. +1.

Mm... trying a random run. Keeps crashing on me, which is sad (and the only crashes I had, so far :(), but.

Most enjoyable thing so far? Slime heart/rock/stealth on the robe. Follow the invisible bouncing ball... of death.

E: Oh god, oh god, repulsor stacked wand + elasticity robe. I HAVE BECOME THE PINBALL WIZARD!

How exactly would you get the power anywhere else?
Lasers.

Seriously though, haven't they been working on some kind of satellite based power transmission or summat like that? Know they've got wireless power transmission over short range, but I don't recall how far they've gotten in getting it longer.

Barring that or really long power cables, you could probably do something involving batteries of various sorts.

... Quinn's E is only a dash in a sort of technical sense. It's not a gapcloser or a repositioner, it's a pretty piss poor way to dodge effects, and you can't run away with it at all (caveat: Unless I am seriously missing something). It is a (very involved, quite flashy) slow (+ministun) and some damage, as well as a means to set your passive on something, but I wouldn't really call it a dash. Unless there's a way to cancel out of it or something. It puts you pretty much right back where you started, otherwise.

It does works differently while you've shifted into valor (it's a plain gap closer then, if still not really anything else. Kinda' like Maokai's thing.), but base Quinn, it's definitely not a dash in the conventional sense.

We're so over turning lead into gold. Turning shit into cake is the real alchemy.
Actually, I'm pretty sure we just call that agriculture nowadays. Process is a little slow and tends to involve some additives, but hey, it is what it is.

Should be fine for it. Schedule doesn't get frisky until next week, heh.

Uh... Triffids?
Already covered under "plants", I think.

Xenomorphs with boobs?
Think the fanworks that have been done disqualify those. It's a fairly prolific thing, iirc. Plus didn't the xenomorph queens get up to something along those lines in some of the later movies?

Hey Frumple: You should totally give up on listening to peer pressure. It's what all the cool kids are doing. Don't you want to be cool?
I gave up on listening to peer pressure before it was cool, and by the gods I'm sticking with it. Your trends can ensconce themselves in the same moist crevice I wedged that behavioral pattern in.

Incredibly stupid shit you did when you were younger? Yeah, I got a pretty easy one of those. Not nearly as involved or as much setup, but it's definitely a pretty golden example.

Way back when, I went along with some highschoolers (I was either in elementary or middleschool at the time, mother was their teacher) on a field trip. During said field trip, at one point I ended up letting them convince me to dash across the road (it was a two way street, the light was for the crosswalk) while the light was green. And, welp. I ended up about an arm's length (at the time, maybe 2-3 feet) from the grill of a speeding van, and a couple seconds from being hit and probably either crippled or killed.

Incredibly stupid thing to do, on pretty much all levels, and it nearly ended me. Bright side, the aftermath of that was also more or less the point where I mostly permanently told peer pressure to go fuck itself. Dunno 'bout other folks, but I tend to stop doing stuff (listening to peers, in this case) that almost kills me.

It's sort of strange.  There aren't that many things I like, and usually I keep to the minimum, but if I like something then god damn I am bound and determined to own a lot of it.
You have no idea how incredibly intense the urge to steal street signs and hide them somewhere is. No. Freaking. Idea. There's just something about them. The thought of taking one and then... putting it somewhere else. Maybe stick a bird house on top of it, or use several as a vine trellis thingy. Something. I end up staring longing at temporary signs along the side of the road because... I could. I could. I don't, and I won't, 'cause it'd be illegal and immoral, but... the urge. So great. People are asleep at three AM. No one would know but me.

Just buying them wouldn't be the same. The acquisition has to be non-commercial. Maybe not necessarily theft, but...

What do you do, good Vector, when the thing liked is verboten? Occasionally there's moral and legal opportunities, but...
