Wish the unfriendly difficulty swapped all the puppet models with their "Unfriendly" counterparts from the end of the game.

[@mrSatern100]

@softsounds8453 if I recall correctly, you don't even get Unfriendly difficulty at the start of the game and have to unlock it after beating the game on Veteran (which even that is locked behind doing the difficulty before that iirc) so there's not really much to spoil when you've already gone through the game at least twice

It's been recently found out that beating the boss with wrench in unfriendly is actually faster than waiting. If you get the "mega wrench" and stand in specific spot you can keep hitting him while he can't do anything to you. Still, it's incredible how you managed to beat him without any of those

I love how whenever Spiff goes "Oh, hi Loaf." the ENTIRETY of chat goes "Loaf"

[@legionbeast]

I think the developer could easily include a "wrench only" mode where when the mode is selected, the key is just open to grab in that room as soon as you grab the wrench. Also yeah, getting the golden ending is something you haven't actually done.

[@WillDoesC]

Wow, this neighborhood really is friendly, I sure hope something bad doesn't happen to Spigg that takes him upwards of 5 hours

[@davideisenberg4735]

I got to say it's nice to see a developer actively tell you how to break the game for challenge runs I think that's really cool. It reminds me of the glitched detraction developers (mentioned in I think one of David Barron's 100% videos about how they joined the discord for speed running and wanted to help them with certain stuff.) Seeing a big game like this have a developer who is both enjoying Challenger runs like this and actively saying hey you can break the game by doing this, going as far as to say you might be able to clip past this and I know for a fact you can do this with only a wrench is really cool to be honest that alone might give me the incentive to buy the game. That and the fact that the game looks fun but the attitude of the developers is a nice change of pace. I'll try to update if I do by the game don't have the money at the moment. update: I finally bought the game., I am enjoying it like I thought I would.

[@M644theawesome]

Fun fact, if you do not have the pistol in your inventory, he does the motion to shoot and does shoot, but the gun is not there and no letter projectile is shot like in the normal cutscene , so can still do wrench only while looking at the full cutscene Also helping out all the bigger puppets, like give the glasses to the bird one and others, gives you the best ending of the game, same as the ending when you say yes, but it does play out differently, as in mostly the dialog is different

I dunno if spiff's ever gonna see this but sharpening ur lawn mower's blade or getting a fresh blade goes a really long way. Don't need to buy a new mower, just need a blade that cuts better. Puts less strain on the engine so the engine no shut off. If u wanna save even more bucks u can buy an angle grinder and a sharpening disc and sharpen it urself. Have fun spiff, try not to lose any figures :D

Spigg becoming a PNGtuber with the pepega sliding into frame is an interesting direction for him to take, as someone who mostly listens to his vids in the background i can normally tell the diference between stream and video Spigg. Cool addition anyways 👍

[@DuskoftheTwilight]

58:10 I actually tested this in my casual playthrough! If you have the gun on you but no ammo, you brandish the gun but just click the trigger and nothing actually fires. And if you don't have the gun in your inventory at all he brandishes his hand posed as if he's holding the gun, but it's not there.

[@aceae4210]

so if choco bars increase the speed by 50% (and it's doing a times 1.5 each choco bar) then the speed would scail like this starting from 0 bars BaseSpeed=B B*1 (0 bar) B*1.5 (1 bar) B*2.25 (2 bar) B*3.375 (3 bar) B*5.0625 (4 bar) B*7.59375 (5 bar) B*11.390625 (6 bar)

[@silencephyxion7423]

So I have a story about this rick roll incident. I was about to take one of my physics exams online, and we had our lecturer invigilating the exam through our webcams. Before the exam started we were all just vibing in the Zoom lobby and someone asked in the chat box for some music recommendations. I immediately gave them a link to Rick Astley, but it wasn't a private message; it got sent to some 200-odd people, including the lecturer. He opened it, and we all know what happened next. So now I am known in the physics faculty as that one dude who rick-rolled his entire cohort during an exam.

[@aarondevack1912]

I love how spiff didn't know of the other 2 endings in the game, which he's only seen the neutral good and neutral bad ends, if you leave after it gets dark out you get the true bad ending, Gordon gets fired and the TV stays messed up, neutral bad, just beat the game and select no, neutral good, beat the game but select yes, true good ending, help all 4 "bosses" pearl with her glasses, Sewer pipe guy (forgot the name he has sorry...) Know how to properly fix things instead of just banging it all the time, feed the dogs, and the chef you have to play a specific movie reel. The first one most people likely get is pearl but no others, but hey, at least you now know (order people likely do it is Pearl, Chef, dogs, then sewer guy.)

[@aroneden.]

As for the grass overgrown problem. Get a weedwacker and go over the lawn once then use lawnmower. Saves the blade, time and potentially engine damage. + its about 150dollars for a weedwacker + you can detail your lawn for that crisp clean finish + it’s satisfying. (My lawn is about a football field big and i use BIG driveing lawnmower, small walk mower and weedwacker) Much love from sweden and have a blessed day

[@AttacMage]

feel you on the grass mowing. got a 20 year old toro and left the grass for far too long, and I bag it. ended up actually just weed-wacking the backyard once or twice and then mowing over it, while I did the front wheelie-style. front took about an hour. back takes at least 2.5-3. .25 acres or so. got a new set of blades and that helped so much. still had to do the wheelie method, since it allows for granular cutting, but it stopped getting clogged. if your yard is small enough, I would honestly just get an electric. I'm not a fan normally, (although electric weed wackers are pretty great) but they do have some good advantages over an average toro. (Ryobi is cheap btw, but I really am not a fan; and with electric costs you have to account for batteries, not just the mower.)
