Re: Project Aviate

Updated again.

Up next is the Tabuu boss fight, which'll put a close to World 1. I know that these updates are shorter than what you're used to- but I figure a rapid-fire approach is better for something like this.

Re: Project Aviate

To be honest, I prefer this style.

Fuck stealth.

Wise words, wise words.

> Hector: Ascend

I still find it rather odd that he can shoot people and still care about them enough to get them medical help, but w/e. It's more business for me, I guess.

topic remodeled

 

[Dr. Javelin]

Sign-ups?!?

[me=Jack_Noir]pulls out his sword[/me]

who are you and what have you done with the real Tabuu

 

[Nabber]

Hey this is inspired by Portal. Awesome.

And you can use me if you need to.

 

[Dr. Javelin]

I thought you'd resolved not to write about people you didn't really know, because it would make their portrayal not as accurate.

 

[Contra(dictory)]

I'm going to start getting around the community more so I can get a better grasp on them

and it's not like everybody has to be a major character, anyways

I mean, I barely knew UM

but I nailed his character in Userpedia University

 

[Nathan Fielder]

i guess i'll sign up

by the way, this is looking great so far. i especially like the style you're doing the chapters in, and i think you really nailed javelin's character.

 

[GalacticPetey]

Finally got around to reading this.

This is better than 95% of the stuff on Userpedia.

 

[Pyro]

This is pretty good.

also signing up

Thank you all. I'm glad you're enjoying it.

 

[GalacticPetey]

I guess I'll sign up. I really like the gritty tone to this story.

 

[Contra(dictory)]

What's your favorite part so far?

 

[GalacticPetey]

I don't know. Hard to choose. I really liked the torture part. Very dark and edgy.

 

[Contra(dictory)]

I'm going to be releasing the chapter soon: make sure to download this song before you read it and listen to it while you read.

Spoiler: Diving Station's "Backward Mind (Lower)"

Slightly lower quality; faster download:

Hi-Fi version; longer download:

It's for the Tabuu boss fight.

Edit: I also uploaded it as an mp3.

Obvious cred to Scarecrow.

 

[Contra(dictory)]

Updated with boss fight. World 1 is over. Be sure to download the song and listen while you read!

Spoiler: Holy pop culture references, Batman!

• The mirror room with the fog is an allusion to "smoke and mirrors".
• It being fog instead of smoke is a reference to the song "Smoke on the Water".
• The fog's hallucinogenic properties and color a reference to Jimi Hendrix's "Purple Haze".
• Tabuu's outfit and preferred weapon are a reference to Death and Blue Öyster Cult's "Don't Fear."
• The effects of the fog on the victims is a reference to Scarecrow's (the Batman villain) fear gas, as well as the fact that the person who uses it on others has an immunity or other defense to it. (In some incarnations of Scarecrow, he has an immunity- and in others, the mask acts as a filter to prevent its effects on him. Tabuu is immune to his own "fear gas".)

 

[Zero777]

I'll like to sign-up

Review?

 

[Nabber]

Well, you used the term "snarled" three times, which I felt got redundant, but otherwise very good.

 

[Dr. Javelin]

I'm going to start getting around the community more so I can get a better grasp on them

let's not think too deeply about other possible meanings of this statement

and it's not like everybody has to be a major character, anyways

I mean, I barely knew UM

but I nailed his character in Userpedia University

> implying UM has a complex character

...and i think you really nailed javelin's character.

I've been shocked at how accurate it is.

also good boss fight i just wasn't really into it though

I guess I just prefer Typical Tragedy's style more because I like the medieval genre (or sci-fi genre, but that's beside the point) style of fighting, with magic or lasers or whatever. Not really into guns and modern stuff.

 

[RandomGuy]

I like it, I'll join

@Zero and Buu: Uh, could I get an actual review from you two? What did you like the most? What didn't you like? I need something to work with, here.
@Javelin: That's strange, considering this story is just as focused on close combat as TT and Resolutions were.
@Nabber: Sorry about that.

 

[Dr. Javelin]

@Javelin: That's strange, considering this story is just as focused on close combat as TT and Resolutions were.

Yeah, I still can't figure out why I'm just not as into this as Resolutions and TT.
