Game Design Questions

Does anybody know anything about game design? Coding and the like, y'know? I have some friends who don't know much about some new filetypes people are using, and I'd like to be able to help them with their project.

What’s The Deal With? Pt. 1

So, I think I’m going to do more of these (hence the pt. 1), because entertainment culture makes no sense to me. So, I just started to read this comic that some of my friends recommended to me called Dr. Crawl (if you’d like to read it yourself and avoid spoilers, you can find an issue at your nearest comic store in the ‘Bogus Comics’ section), and it just?? Makes no sense?? First off, he doesn’t even crawl (instead opting to handstand everywhere of all things), and his actual only power is shooting lightning after an unintentional sneeze. Ignoring the fact that that might be the stupidest set of powers of all time, I decided to give it a chance anyways. To my surprise, the first 3 issues are actually really good! It’s all about like how he’s not a superhero or a villain, but people expect him to be because he looks weird. Eventually he convinces everyone that he’s just named Dr. Crawl because he has a PhD in Astrology (a science I personally feel has been neglected ever since modern Fantasian Theory has been in practice), and his ancestral name is Chraughwle, with Crawl being a Ferrinization of this name. Of course, he accidentally ends up sneezing, and his lightning saves the city from destruction, and once more he is branded a hero. Sounds cool right?? But then in Volume 4, future Dr. Crawl shows up, and tells him that he has to become a villain for some reason! Now, I’m all for time travel, but this is just bullarkey. I turned the page, expecting to see the present Doc flip off his future self and continue his life, but instead I’m greeted with a two-page illustration of him on a dark throne hurling lightning bolts at the city and also handstand-walking up Astrolabe Tower. What the hell??? I guess some people are just in it for the merch, y’know?

Heck, I think I’ve rambled enough. But I’m going to see how deep this shitty rabbit hole goes. It’s not even like, a rabbit hole. It’s like you think you’re going down a rabbit hole, and then at the bottom there’s a goddamn hare just sitting there like ‘sup’ and you question what the point of searching for a rabbit at the bottom was in the first place.

I need sleep.

Hiya!

Hello! I haven’t had a lot to do lately, just waiting for some people to finish developing something. So I figured I’d write down my random thoughts and the like here! I have a penchant for the poetic, I’m afraid, so there might be a lot of that here.

Thanks for reading, anyways! Whether this gets popular or not, I’ll appreciate every follower! :D

I might be open to asks as well, seeing as I don’t have anything better to do.
