I found where mice had set up housekeeping in an old powerpc 8100. They got in 'cause I had sawed a big hole in it for an ac-powered cooling fan.

Oooh, I recognise that. Sure I added it to my wishlist but now I can't see it.

I was thinking the other day that an Ant Colony sim would be awesome. Meant to check if there was one, but then I forgot.

Yeah, was wondering if anything more modern was about. I'd google, but I'm too busy watching all my colonists slowly die. This is a sad game.

She appeared on the horizon one day, stark bollock naked and being chased by a gang of crazed raiders. She begged us for help, and help we did. We killed her oppressors, healed her wounds, gave her food and shelter. She decided to join our colony, helping out where she could. Poor lass was only a kid, 16 years old and God knows what horrors she'd been through.

Then one day I got greedy. I thought I could take down that Thrumbo and make a fortunes selling its fur and horns.

She fought bravely. Tooth and nail. Right to the end. The bitter, bloody end.

I'm sorry Rebecca. Rest in peace.


P. S. Also sorry I never got round to making you any clothes. Complete oversight on my part. My bad.

It wasn't intended to be forced nudity. My tailor was stuck making a load of cowboy hats, and I didn't have the right materials for /ages/. And then she died. That bit still hurts.

There are *lots* of traits the colonists can have including 'nudist' where they're much happier when naked so Kos *might* not be a disgusting deviant perv.

SimAnt?

(you'll probably like this: the ants are nude by default)

Rimworld. Don't play it, it will make you sad :'(

I've had to give up on that colony, it just seems pointless now.

She was unhappy due to having no clothes.

My crops failed because of blight, and no one would work as a tailor (had 1 person able to tailor and they kept doing other stuff, even when I turned off every other job on the work list. I had no cloth but did have pelts and leather, I probably missed a setting somewhere that caused the bills not to be completed. There are very many settings in this game)

Just about made it through my first winter, couple of days left to go.

My God, it's been tough. Unspeakable things were done. The one raiding party that dared come out in the - 14 degree weather were... put to good use. And don't ask what happened to the pet boars. Or pet bear for that matter.

At one point a bunch of ibex that I was hunting went batshit crazy and incapacitated all of my useful people. The two I had left uninjured are a sculptor and researcher, who fucking refused to light a fire to keep warm. Had to get my engineer out of his medical bed to light a fire for those fucks to stop them getting hypothermia.

I'm on the 12th or 13th of winter now, and it's suddenly warmed the Fuck up and I'm getting constant raids coming now. Bit annoying as I need to grow/hunt food, so guess it's going to be long pig again for a few days.
