This was during the summer, and I picked up this cute girl from the place I was working at (a florist). As we got to know each other, we found out our respective love for video games. One day, she picks me up for a spontanous date at her place, and she decided to pick up Mario Kart Wii. We are standing in Best Buy, and she also picks up two steering wheels for it.

We finally arrive at her place, and we decide on takeout Chinese food. As we wait for the food to arrive, we decide to start playing Smash Brothers (not sure which one). She looks embarrassed, as she explains she's terrible at fighting games. And I'm totally kicking her ass - like terribly, no matter what character I pick. We continue flirting and talking trash, and the food finally arrives.

The delivery guy was shocked to see two very different women answer the door. My date is black, and I'm very visibly asian. We were both in disarrayed clothing due to the heat, and the competition.

After eating, we both start playing each other on Mario Kart. Now, it was my turn to royally suck at it. I was mostly in last place (I hate using the Wii motion controls for anything), and the steering wheel was causing me to oversteer badly. (Yes, because there is no yoke, it's very easy to launch your character into blissful oblivion.) It was a fun and enjoyable date that resulted in a funny running joke with me --> my date suggested that we make a game Swordfish style - she'd give me oral while I was playing!

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar

    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after
    the player dies?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Carrying a PC or phone is so old school!
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Squeeze your cheeks twice to answer calls!
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.
