Re: MS Paint Adventures V: THIS IS STUPID
Okay, what was everyone's titles again?
Jane is the Maid of Life
Roxie is the Rogue of Void
Dirk is the Prince of Heart
Jake is the Page of Hope
I got that right? The reason I ask, are because of the stone tablets found in the crypts. They say, among other things:
Spoiler
Show
...the aspect of Hope itself is dead on arrival...
Spoiler
Show
In the beginning, the light of our Hope was lost...Then a mighty gust came and took the light of Life, as well...
Spoiler
Show
Our lights of Heart and Void will each follow in time...One will be extinguished, and then another, leaving only Life as the guiding light...
Uhh...so is this implying then that Spoiler

the Alpha kids will all die, except Jane who will resurrect?

I think it is referring to their dream selves.

Their dream selves are on Prospit and Derse, so how would the civilization on LOCAH know about them?

Same way they knew about events that would take place in millions of years anyway?
Anyway, the fact that we've already seen Jake's dreamself die, as well as Jane's dreamself die and resurrect, in the exact manner the prophesies stated, suggests that it at least alludes to their dreamselves.
Of course, extensive exposure to Doc Scratch has taught me that just because I'm right, doesn't mean you are not also right.
"What sort of story would this be, with our Knight and Seer made to stay cadavers?" Remember that? This story doesn't have Chekhov's Single Shooter. It's more like Chekhov's...
Revolver.
Also I took the boonbuck just fine. It was cool.

Re: MS Paint Adventures V: THIS IS STUPID
You probably shouldn't highlight this post if you haven't seen the last flash.
Oh my god this update. I am in love with this land. So much imagery that resonates with me personally, and Jane's quest, to my amusement, seems to be very similar to an idea I had for a Hero of Life myself.
Tragic about the consorts, of course. And I'm surprised at the absence of imps and other enemies. Wonder how she will progress in the game, having lost her most important tools and with no means of obtaining grist.
And you would like to have that design on your shirt, wouldn't you Jane?

Re: MS Paint Adventures V: THIS IS STUPID
Actually, that reminds me...

Why were there no imps? Was it because Jane didn't prototype her kernalsprite? And why were all the lizards dead? Did the Condesce kill them all?

Re: MS Paint Adventures V: THIS IS STUPID
more likely they were all dead simply due to time. They don't exactly seem like the brightest of the bunch, and being told to build their own tombs while their planet withers and dies can't really leave one with heavy “I want to live" morale.

Also where do you find the third skull for the door? I got the crocodile and the turtle (and the salamander), but then I suddenly had nothing left to do.

You can use one of the skulls to lift the lanterns. Their light will shine upon those obelisks with mirrors - different colors will be reflected in different directions, so ask Lil Sebastian to climb up and rotate the lanterns. You need to activete the seemingly useless switch, which will give you the missing skull.

The same way that they know about anything? I mean, they're preparing tombs for people who won't arrive for millions of years, I think they clearly have some serious insights into how things are going to work out.
Given the order, it is definitely about the dreamselves. Now, it could also be about the kids, given the way that Hussie operates, but here's the order given:
1) Hope dies (Jake's dreamself died)
2) Life dies (Jane's dreamself died)
3) Life returns to life (Jane's dreamself returned)
4) Heart and Void die, but not before their lights guide Life. (You need to use the lanterns of Heart and Void to get Jane to the next area of her world, and those lanterns seem to wink out when dreamselves die.)
I also suspect that the lack of prototyping is why there are no imps. What would they be based on?

Re: MS Paint Adventures V: THIS IS STUPID
Mini walkthrough:
Look back at pit. Look at the dam and the obelisks with mirrors.
Go on and explore.
Take the right path.
Grab Li'l Seb and answer uranianUmbra. Continue onwards.
Look at salamander hill figure, helium pod, and holes.
Go back.
Take the left path.
Take the middle path. Enter the crypt.
Look at flowers and answer Roxy. Continue onwards.
Look at little pulsating pod, stone tablets, switch, window carving, and enter the passage.
Take the sSALAMANDER SKULL. It makes the VOID OBELISK rise up. Look at bones and door. Go back.
Take the faraway passage.
Enter the crypt.
Read the tablets. Continue onwards.
Read the tablets. Pick up the TURTLE SKULL. Continue onwards.
Answer Jake. Look at the lights.
Read the plaques. Step back a bit. Put a skull in the skull indentation. The lights raise up. Go back to them.
Look up. Send Li'l Seb. Rotate the lanterns twice. They should be in the order Green, Orange, Pink, Cyan. Get Li'l Seb back down.
Go back to Salamander Hill Figure. Roxy's light is illuminating a hole. Look inside and Send Li'l Seb down. You'll see the light powers a switch which the bunny activates. A Jaspers-sized mausoleum rise up. Get in. Down you go.
Look at Li'l Seb and push onward.
Pick up the CROCODILE SKULL. The door closes but a panel reveals itself in the crypt. You can put another heavy object on the pedestal to open the door, but it hides the crypt panel. Flick the switch. Scarabs arrive. Put the cake on the pedestal. Look at them. You're wrong, Jane, they're adorable. Put the cake on the pedestal and leave. The scarabs eat the cake and the door closes, revealing the crypt panel again. Go back to the mausolevator to get out of there.
Look back at your house while you're there. Your own light is shining that hole, but it's still too dark. Go back to the lantern shrine. Send Li'l Seb back up to rotate the lamps again. Orange, cyan, green, pink. Get Li'l Seb back and go back to the crypt.
Dirk's light is powering the switch. Activate it. The pulsating pod inflates and lifts off. Notice that little gray thing that jumped aside? It's an IGUANA SKULL.
Enter the little room with the skull panel. Put CROCODILE, TURTLE and IGUANA skulls in it.
Pick up the Boonbuck and enter the mysterious dark void. Oooh, game already over.
Speculations:
This is the Land of Crypt and Helium. The other lands are called LOTAK, LOPAN and LOMAX.
All the worlds are dead, since so much time passed. So the other lands are Land of Tombs and K_, Land of Pyramids and N_, Land of Mausoleums and X_.
The four scratched kids are called nobles. Helium is a noble gas. It's tempting to make a connection here. Other noble gases are Neon, Argon, Krypton, and Xenon. The connection is even more tempting.
The other lands would then be Land of Tombs and Krypton, Land of Pyramids and Neon, and Lands of Mausoleum and Xenon. Nothing for Argon, sorry, though I bet if the fandom makes enough retarded theories about the "fifth kid" from the "Land of Graveyards And Argon", then Hussie might make something dumb about it.
Stupid tease of the day: if the kids are noble, then that makes them Lady Crocker, Lady Lalonde, Lord Strider and yes, you guessed it, Lord English.

Nobles gases.
The planets have X, K, A, and H in them. Thus, Xenon, Krypton, and Argon are the following planets.

Actually when there's a current it glows mauve (krypton, that is). No clue about kryptonite - I prefer Marvel over DC.

I believe there are a load of colours of it with different effects, but the green one is the most common one, and the one that depowers Superman.

Can't believe I missed that. I just got the "rising from the grave" connection between Jane's planet name and her particular manifestation of Life. I'd call Xenon going to Jake because of the adventurer-explorer thing he has going, Krypton for Roxie because it fits with Void, obfuscation and her tendency to cause things to go missing.
Alternatively it could relate to their colours, which would give Argon to Roxie, Krypton to Jane, Helium to Dirk, and Xenon to... Rose? No, none of that makes any sense. I'll stick to the first theory until Andrew inevitably proves me wrong.

Re: MS Paint Adventures V: THIS IS STUPID
Wait, it would be Neon, not Argon, because the planet's called LOPAN

No, green emits toxic radiation. Gold depowers Superman.
