TEST DRIVE

[meta_tron]

It's the Sheol test drive! Gather up some threads for that app, or just dick around and have fun! The theme of this test drive is choose your own VR game scenario!

Maybe your characters are playing Uno! Maybe it's strip Uno! Maybe it's laser tag! Maybe it's deadly laser battle royale laser tag! Any game you can think of, your character is now playing. Please give us a little description when you start a thread so others can join in.

You don't need to "run" these games! In fact, this is a perfect venue to play out the kind of games that normally would never be runnable in an RP. Also, you can choose how "real" they feel to the players within them - it could be as distant as playing a video game (no pain when they are damaged, respawn half stuck into walls, powers they don't have, background music, etc) or so true to real life they'd swear it was real life if they didn't know better.

More info on the game can be found here.

Try not to die while GLaDOS makes fun of you

[shockingly_nice]

[In this game - or "test," as the AI refers to it - you are paired up with a partner, given portal guns and long fall boots, and run through a series of puzzles full of acid and turrets and deadly lasers.

You had better believe the pain is turned on for this one.]

[Testing the portals by doing that thing where you fire one at the ceiling and one underneath it on the floor and jump in. SCIENCE.]

Re: Try not to die while GLaDOS makes fun of you

[shockingly_nice]

Yes. That's it. Keep doing that. You've solved the puzzle.

[...What if I just keep doing this for five minutes longer than I intended to for that huh. HUH.]

[Finishing a puzzle at breakneck speed while her partner is still standing on the starting platform who thought giving Parker a portal gun and long fall boots was a clever idea]

Re: Try not to die while GLaDOS makes fun of you

[shockingly_nice]

Congratulations. You have the fastest score of having completely abandoned your partner.

[commandeer]

[glances behind herself] He'll catch up. Give me the next one.

Excuse me! Hey! Don't you have something with less deadly acid?

[Some brat lives in the abandoned library and is sitting on a book cart, pushing it forward with a broom as he looks through the shelves]

[commandeer]

[Team-based hide-and-seek going on here! Parker's meant to be seeking but instead she is standing at the edge of the roof of a very tall building]

[captainplanet]

Who wants to play catch the flying lemur?

[midgardener]

Catch them?

[captainplanet]

Well, just one. Momo's missing and I thought this was the best way to find him.

[thebabebowsout]

Heh heh, you sure you wanna play catch with me?

[also what's a lemur. that's surely the less important question here.]

[captainplanet]

Sure, why not? The more people there are, the better!

[thebabebowsout]

I'm no good at going easy on kids . . . uh, so. What's a lemur?

[captainplanet]

It's a kind of animal. You can't miss it.

[ WHAT A GIANT LIKE CLUELESS-QUALITY CLOSET FILLED WILL CLASSY LADY DRESSES ]


Oh! A costume game!

[flynnitomite]

A bit old for playing dress-up, aren't you love?

[midgardener]

[ UHO ]


A lady never gets too old to appreciate a good look!

[flynnitomite]

[He's tall, dark, and looks stunning in pink]

Suppose that's true. Somethin' you've got your eye on in there?

[thebabebowsout]

Yeah, but . . . what are the guys supposed to do?

[midgardener]

If there are only dresses, then everyone needs to wear a dress, probably!

[thebabebowsout]

What? I'm not doing that! That's totally biased against the dudes!
