The captain hurtled through grey space in his attack ship.
Ahead, wave after wave of Bluk Cubes, deadly fighters of the
Mörd Clan, with the ability to dart through space
almost defying known physics. Behind him, his once
loyal comrades, now in hot pursuit on orders to eliminate
their captain, having been led to believe he'd turned
traitor. All bollocks of course, he'd just become too good
at shooting. Pew Pew! Now he was rocketing down-space, to go
underground and just chill out on one of the less regulated
planets on the outer rim. A Browhar called Klynxx he'd once
chatted with on the Teletext told him she'd like to meet him
if he ever found himself in that Galactic Quadrant. He
called up her Holo-Pic on the phase book app on the ship's
computer. Apparently she had three minges. He punched in the
coordinates, took off his gloves, unzipped his trousers and
let his ship sail away from the interminable war that was
now part of his past.

this is great and quite difficult and i will try my best to
WIN (if you are able to win in the end (i also hope there is
a big boss plz))

also, the graphics really remind me of a dosgame i played a
long time ago. you were a squareblocky arsonist that had to
strategically lay fuse and cannisters of petrol to destroy
everything in the little square arena without setting
yerself alight. if anyone can provide a link to this (i
think it was a .com file about 50kb or thereabouts, haha) i
will catch a train/plane/automobile and bake you a cake and
fiddle with your naughty bits free of charge, i've been
hunting for ages. /end thread hijack

Let's get this game on store shelves by Christmas.

This could be the back-of-box synopsis:

In a universe with only three dimensions, where planets
are cubes, space ships are squares, and squares are hip, one
star-pilot stands out above all the rest. He is Arthur
Coolspace, captain of the 08th squadron of the rebellion
against the evil Foursides Empire. Does he possess enough
pink matter to rid the galaxy of the verminous Foursides
Armada? Will he manage to defeat the malevolent Lord
Quadrilateral before bluebar runs out? Only with your help
does he stand a chance! Join the rebellion today!

I'll ask you again, with no malice, to please elaborate on

actually expressing your opinion and I'm honestly interested
in what you have to say.

I really summed it up well in that last post, to be honest..
If, as you say, your music project is an honestly serious
attempt to create worthwhile art, and not just a practical
joke on the world at large, then this computer game fits
into the whole fabien poree project perfectly; it is the
perfect computer-game-based complement --

It is dreadful: extremely low-quality, devoid of any fun or
artistic merit, and leaves the player laughing in ridicule
as opposed to walking away with something gained.

If that's what your stuff is aiming to do, then it does it
perfectly well, really, but that would go against what
you've already said about your music being a genuine attempt
to create quality music.

The game is more of an experiment than anything, and the
first actual game I completed. I'm still learning. I still
think it's great fun though, in a primitive and unfair video
game sort of way.
My music is different, I'm much more confident with it
because I know what I'm doing.

I think the main point in anything I do is trying to tell
people that it's fine to do the things you want to do,
without trying to pretend you're a professionnal, without
accounting for what's dictated by conventional taste. It's
not just about honesty, I don't care, it's about being wary
of routes that will stiffen and erase anything
contradictory. If people in this kind of society are willing
to throw money at something, it's because it puts them in no
danger whatsoever.

I'm not saying I'm doing anything revolutionary, I'm
certainly more of an useful idiot, but I'm still trying my
best not to play a part in something I loathe.

You seem to think that worthwhile art is produced through
professionnalism and Serious Pondering, which I think is not
only bullshit, it's a vector of oppression.

I'm saying all that and probably sounding very pretentious.
I'm no crusader and I'm not thinking of this whenever I do
something. I just do it for fun and I'm sternly unwilling to
compromise my fun.

Yep, see this this the thing. That's all good, and I'm glad
you're honest about it - but the problem I have with it is
that the people who rally around you and proclaim your music
to be the greatest thing since sliced bread (Dan, in
particular, is guilty of this hypocrisy, as is fleetmouse),
will the next minute be complaining about the fact that the
internet is flooded with, so-to-say, "low-quality" music
that any teenager whipped up on a pirated copy of fruity
loops, and absolutely tearing some other poor sod's music
apart.

That's mainly what I'm annoyed about - the big xltronic
circlejerk. It's alright for you to post whatever doodlings
you came up with, since you're in the circle, but an
outsider who begins doing the same will be utterly
crucified.

I understand Porick's point and of course he's mainly right
and probably started drinking around noon which I approve
of, but Poree's oeuvre does contain pant droppingly
accomplished pop tracks amongst his wide, eccentric range.
For that reason I'd give him ear time and indulgence over
someone who just beats a well worn path that doesn't
distinguish them from any herd. I don't tend to listen to
music anymore though as all this internet nonsense has kind
of pissed in my Well of Enjoyment from where I used to draw
pleasure.

Ah I see. I'm sorry you feel this way but I really can't
have an opinion on this, because I can't know exactly why
someone would like what I do. All I can say is that people
outside this forum, people I don't even know, have been
affected by what I do. I don't exactly know why. I hate
saying this because it sounds like I'm trying to justify
myself, but still I think I think it's a bit insulting for
you to assume that people are only saying nice things
because of peer pressure or what have you.

I'm still a little intrigued when I see Dan hating on
Bodenständig, though :)

Also, just to clarify something; I don't consider what I do
to be low-quality, or doodles. They're Fully Realised Works.

"I'd give him ear time and indulgence over someone who just

My fucking arse.

As if wesley willis, daniel johnston, gg allin and the rest
of the unmusical "eccentrics" who felt the necessity to
produce their shit music never lived.

Being different in the sense that poree's music is different
isn't being different at all. It's a trite attempt at being
twee and hokey.

And sorry if my criticism is contributing to the ratio of
piss to pleasure in your "well of enjoyment" but it was
about time you lot got called out on this shameless
back-patting, hypocrisy and endorsement of irredeemably
talentless muck.

eternal flame had me in tears laughing the first time i
heard it. and many times after too. it's not easy to make it
so perfectly 'bad'.

fabien seems pretty dedicated and genuine about his art.
maybe when i'd just listened to it once i would have just
laughed and dismissed it as merely ironic. but i now feel
there's more to it, but just not the things you appreciate
in music, as far as i can tell.

was actually pretty addicting, and you come along and tell
us to not like it because the maker doesn't deserve it cause
it's as bad as his music is. I'd like to know where in your
brain this was triggered as 'a good idea to do'. You're just
