Are the Finns ok?
(startrek.website)
No, we're not ok
Gets rated as the happiest country for yet another consecutive year.
Why! What am I missing!? Who here is happy?!!
Maybe we're doing "fake it before you make it" for the ratings
Or we're just generally content with life, which makes for a good average rating

Just wanted to point out that the maker of Baba is You is one of the developers of Noita.
There are not many people in Finland apparently
That man's name? Linus Ultrakillsquadunger.
*Ultrakillsquadonen
A -nen ending on a surname is very common in Finland. (Like expresident Tarja Halonen or F1 driver Kimi Raikkonen)
You forgot Baron Harkonnen

Haha holy shit, this makes so much sense
All of them are amazing gifts to the world
Noita is amazing.
And also very hard.
I cant get past 3 level
I'm also slowly getting into it. Just got a run yesterday where I got a super good wand in the hisi base. I was shooting these blue bubbles at high speed with homing. It had so much knockback that I could use only that to fly. It was the first time where I got to level 5,6 and even 7 and I was still breezing through. But I still died. I used a wand with lots of slots as storage for spells and it killed me immediately. Can't describe how terrible I felt after that...
Can't describe how terrible I felt after that...
Welcome to noita lol
Yeah once I randomly got a wand with lightening bolt.
Holy shit that spell is awesome, and also very dangerous.
Took me to the end of level 3 before, i killed myself with it. Lmao.
Just here to plug DunkOrSlam and FuryForged on YT and Twitch for the noobies.

Chainsaw is your friend
Fear and Hunger man... that game is like a playable version of Berserk as a random person, rather than Guts.
I do recall a joke about something similar.
"LSD and Unix both came out of UC Berkeley, I do not believe that this is a coincidence."
Noita is really interesting, but I feel like the base game's balance is janky. You can play really well and just get utterly fucked on wands. They have this amazingly nuanced magic system but it feels like you rarely get the chance to harness it or experiment and death is very easy.
Don't get me wrong, I highly recommend it if you like side scrolling rogue-lites. Plus the game's a LOT bigger than it first appears.
After playing for hundreds of hours, I decided that being fucked so often and so arbitrarily is the secret sauce that makes god-runs the fantastic dopamine rush that they are. Eventually, you attain equanimity with death; only then are you ready to ascend.
I played a lot and once had a really good run and got really far. After that I didn't want to play any more because it felt it would take too long to ever get beyond that run.
Some kind of checkpoint from which you could start when you die would probably work better for me.

My friend’s theory was that a lot of it is because of how long and dark the winters are in northern europe.
That same lots of free time for many and early projects by universities to connect to the internet, and there's a whole lot of us Nordic nerds around
I love how all this dark shit comes out of the happiest country in the world
Maybe this is how they balance their lives? "I'm too happy, I need to create evil in some way"
One of these is definitely not like the others
Ahh yes Noita, the setting-myself-on-fire simulator.
Cruelty Squad is bangin'
Baba is You looks like a super fun idea (I haven't yet played it tho). Same with Ultrakill; looks pretty dope.
Haven't played Baba is You, but ULTRAKILL is 10/10. I love it, I just can't play it. There's a certain boss fight I've gotten stuck on and can't get past because the game's pacing and music sends my heart rate through the roof and my ability to control my fine motor functions and ability to be patient and wait for attack patterns just kinda regresses to that of a 5yr old (music can have a very strong affect on me, Ultrakill's music is extremely fast).

Based and Black-suppositoried
Nokia was from Finland. That was the high quality shit.
Given that selection, they seem more than okay
Hakita is either very ok or not ok at all.
I mean look at his youtube channel: https://m.youtube.com/@Hakita/videos
man I really gotta get around to continuing ultrakill, it makes my anxiety go up but is really fun

No, they're finished
I know 1 of these.
Not to mention Hill Climb Racing on mobile devices. One of the least shit mobile games out there
Don't forget the Adamantium of phones, Nokia!
Kinda blowing past the Remedy Games catalog but glad somebody else has finally noticed
They also created (and later ruined) Angry Birds
When your neighbor is Russia, you get kinda crazy.
