Listen. They’re called “plot bunnies” for a reason, and it’s not just because they hop around all over your brain demanding attention.

For anyone who ever asked me where ideas come from. They creep in and breed when you’re making something else.

Gram gram Eda shows up. "Azura it time we brush up on the basics again. time to hotwire some cop cars and brush up on the pointers of tax evasion."

Gma Wu "......WHAT?!?"

thisbelongsto-nohbodys answered:

Mrs Wu thinks that Eda looks familiar and decides to investigate and discovers that she (Eda) is also banned in Hopkinton, Mass. To learn that Azura is related to “Jocelyn” is very surprising considering how polite, well-behaved and good influence on Lily she (Azura) is. Then again it does explain a few odd things she’s noticed like how things when Azura is around

reminder to worldbuilders: don't get caught up in things that aren't important to the story you're writing, like plot and characters! instead, try to focus on what readers actually care about: detailed plate tectonics

Me, looking at my detailed physics calculations for how much of a "slope" on the floor would be caused by the spaceship's deceleration: I take this personally

I think about Power Wash Simulator a lot more than I should. The gameplay wasn't great (it was passable for a 'something to do with your hands' kind of game, but it's no Hardspace: Shipbreaker on Open Shift or anything) but it lives rent free in my head for having such a batshit story presentation. I cannot stop thinking about how they actually made that.

It shows something that I think most horror games lack, a division between the character’s mission and the story plot. Power Wash did a great job of feeling like the character is falling down a rabbit hole as a side effect of just doing their job.

It’s held together by loose threads that tighten up as the story goes on, slowly converging into being one thing.

The plot is not suspenseful, it’s just there and it waits for you.

It's also extremely funny how they manage to tie the plot not just into power washing, but into the limited functions that you expect from a power wash simulator. Like through the whole thing the ONLY things you can do are what you would expect from a power wash simulator -- accept jobs, clean stuff, and receive messages from clients. You don't have other functions that a guy who also has a power wash business would be able to do, you can only do Power Wash Simulator stuff. They commit to the bit. They do not cheat and give you extra abilities. You experience the entire story as a power wash simulation and a power wash simulation ONLY and that is just so incredibly funny to me.

It has plot???

derinthescarletpescatarian

It has the most unhinged plot that you could possibly put in a power wash simulator. There's time travel and aquatic precursors to humanity and an averted apocalypse involved and all you do is power wash.

sounds like I need to play power wash simulator

Well I hope you like pretend power washing
