You're not even going to bother trying to reason with me, bargain with me, see if I feel pity, remorse, or fear @_@?

I've had fun with this back in the day...

Additionally, some of the enthusiasm might be due to unexpected familiarity. As far as Poland goes, we have CDP and Techland for big guys, but I've also witnessed the awesome creations of two indie devs: Kornel Kisielewicz (who's the creator of DOOM:RL)... and the Soldat guy. I used to play Soldat WAY back in the day. It was either one of the symptoms or causes for my affection for 2D shooters like The Showdown Effect and Awesomenauts. Guess what - the same guys who made Soldat are behind Butcher.

This probably won't change your mind, which I won't even bother attempting, but let me try and show a different side of this to you.
We both know that the graphics are probably the result of tight resources and Polish ingenuity. People scraped a few pixels from the streets of Poland, and lumped them together into sprites. The end result, however, isn't necessarily bad. First of all - it lets your imagination run wild. Computer graphics are about tricks anyway, the end result is simply supposed to conjure the right images. This relies heavily on people doing "mental decompression" that "restores" details that were never there to begin with. It's sort of like impressionism, where you are just given the dots and have to go from there. Other than that, there's beauty-in-motion as opposed to beauty-in-stillness. I'm not quite sure how reasonably and convincing to others the idea is, but I believe I have seen example of it in my life. There was this girl, for instance, whose picture would not impress you in the slightest, but whose beauty came from motion, smile, and grace. Like to fire, stillness was anathema to her beauty. Similarly, as your eyes meander from target to target, you probably won't get a lot of time to marvel at motionless vistas. What matters are things in motion.

Interestingly, I'm not THAT old. Then again...
Somehow I sometimes get drawn to certain retro concepts, though that just means not limiting myself to everything new and fancy. Society seems to have a mixed reaction to this, so while appreciation of Lovecraft is fine, fedoras have increasingly become contentious... Thankfully, I don't have to deal with this outside the Internet, where "that guy with a hat" is what people remember ME by, not associate me WITH ;P.

No. I'm not saying "based on difficulty" or "based on X". If you want to base it on marketing, go ahead. I simply want EXAMPLES. The EXTENSION can supplement the INTENSION (not a typo), you know.

OK, no you've lost the plot.
If someone is running, and you're taking a walk, that doesn't make you worse, but it also doesn't make him any worse of a runner.
Not every game is about competition, not everyone has to compete, not everyone has to value being the best, but if there are criteria for competition, people participate, and some are objectively better than others, how you take this doesn't change what is the case. Would you insist that there are no better or worse chess players, just because you may like playing chess for fun? Does the existence of Kasparov invalidate yours somehow?
There is no contradiction in accepting the existence of values you do not hold dear. I know I ignore a multitude of disciplines, but I won't demand everyone be deprived of their titles just because I choose not to participate. There are professional tiddly-winks players, FFS. I don't feel inferior to them, and yet some of them are better and some are worse.

Thank you. That's all I've been trying to say. I'm for a "live and let live" approach, where those who like to compete don't get to feel superior to those who abstain, but where those who abstain don't get to feel superior to those who compete either.

i am awesome at street fighter 2 turbo and I also make a mean chili

I bet Alice bought this game immediately.

I'm confused, I've played a demo (download file not browser) from itch.io few couple months ago the graphic and name quite similar to this but couldn't track back. :/

But can you do both at the same time?

Damn, I want to eat your chili. What about corn bread? Is that mean too?

Yes. I can confirm this. It insulted my mother.

Wait, where did all your rep go?

i stew my chilli with a variety of different fresh peppers, so it almost always turns out spicy. it could buzzsaw through the ironest of buttholes.

my cornbread is not yet mean. im working on it though. my iron skillet technique is not up to par. last night I made some, and it sticks to the pan something dreadful. I like to use a bit of honey in my cornmeal and my wife thinks thats why it sticks, the caramelized sugars etc.

...you seem to not recall that I was first at 50, then at -50, then at about 20. This recent swing is just the serial downvoters getting their groove on again.
I ticked off NES and his buddies some long time ago, so it seems I'm permanently stuck on "the list" along with tinyE, amrit937, and a few others.
The only thing that ever brought me back into the positives was the occasional uprepping I get from running the Community Steam Giveaway.

yes, once my chilli is set to go for a bit I will beat zues and jesus at the same time at street fighter 2 turbo using only sagat because he is like a bald super ken.

I AM PREPARED FOR THE CHALLENGE.
>using Sagat instead of Zangief or Dhalsim
Good luck.

Edit: Oh, wait, Turbo. I'm thinking World Warrior.
Whatever. T. Hawk will always be underrated.

Maybe your iron pan isn't seasoned correctly. Or try this; butter or oil your pan and then sprinkle flour in it. That might help.
I love me some Sagat. I like the sound of his fist hitting and breaking jaws. I always thought he said "hyper-uppercut" but it turned out to be "tiger-uppercut" Yeah, love me some Sagat, but Ryu4ever.
T. Hawk indeed, but hard to use. Can't believe any cornbread can insult, but only if it's dry :P
