I once had a tractor-feed-paper-foldy-thing that was over 25 feet long, without stretching. There was some tape in there to combine pieces, but it was mostly just paper.

Kids in the 80's did weird shit with no Internet...

That was the origin episode of Trogdor the Burninator.

I don't know how many times while playing Dread I said to myself "wow, that XXXX in the background looks cool, wish I could go there..."

I agree & I'm old enough to have played all the Metroid games when they were released.

The biggest problem with Dread is there's a million games that have released since the last 2D Metroid that have done so much more with the genre that the name isn't pulling it's weight like it once did, and they forgot to innovate.

They tried to recapture the "oh shit" feeling of encountering X from Fusion in Dread, but the quick-time instakill events just made it tedious and annoying.

The GBA/DS Castlevania games are all 8/10+ if you're a fan of metroidvanias and a collection recently released on Steam/Switch. They all take the same formula and change things to make it feel familiar, but different, and give you plenty of things to go back for after you're "done".

Finishing Dread became a chore about 2/3 through, it just stops being fun.

I'm waiting incredibly impatiently for Hollow Knight: Silksong, as Hollow Knight is pretty much the game all Metroidvanias is compared to at this point and it is top notch.

A Creality Ender 3 can be gotten on sale for under $150 USD. It's a great entry level printer if you want to learn the how's & why's of printing & like to tinker.

If you want to just push a button & have things work 90% of the time, I'd go with a Prusa MK4S, but those start around $800 USD...

Good luck on your printing journey! It's a fun little combination of crafting and tech.

The Spine - Transistor OST.

There's 3 versions, though... The soundtrack version with lyrics, the game instrumental, and the humming version.

Most of the tracks in the game have at least 2 versions, music is kind of a central theme of the story.

It's all part of the "obscenity" laws that keep getting passed, making porn sites verify ages and all that BS. Other platforms don't want to be seen as obscene, so they censor content in order to not lose a shitton of traffic.

Hence the rise of "un-alive"...

I miss the Wild West days when teachers would go to whitehouse.com and show a room full of 8 year olds a naked blonde with full bush & Q-cup tits.

There may have been "other factors" that were not legal in my state at the time contributing to my pantsless genius...

At first I thought it was trying to be a web address, then I concentrated a bit

That definitely looks 3d printed, and I bet the files for that are online somewhere...

Pretty sure I could make one in the right size if you post measurements?

True Neutral solution. Also I get a bigger piece.
