We know kids sometimes need to learn hard lessons, like persevering when luck doesn’t go your way, or when you try your best and still lose, but in this case, we noticed some sore turns that just didn’t seem fun. There were quite a few times when our Keymaster kids ran away from the table balling their eyes out because of a busted roll or a lost game. Chicken! is about fun at all ages, so of course we turned to our most important product testers: the Keymaster kids. In development, we think about where the most fun moments of the game are occurring and try to focus the design around them. Symbols drawn courtesy of a much better illustrator than me-Kyle. Our rough first version of Scott's dice based on the rules. Lots of chicken noises were made while we played, laughs were had, and the next thing we know we bet the farm on Chicken! and development began. This creates hilarious moments of overcommitting to risky rolls and goading one another into “Chickening out” (a player can choose to lose a point to roll less risky dice). Where Chicken! stands out is the unique ability to pass riskier rolls off to the next player. The core of Chicken! thrives on classic press-your-luck dice rolling: score points (roll chickens), increase risk (hatch eggs), and don’t bust (avoid foxes). Scott shared a one-page rule sheet of this game he called Chicken! “One page?!” we said, “One page! Who is this man?” We quickly threw together a Tabletop Simulator mod of the game and from the first roll, we couldn’t stop clucking about Chicken! He let us know Martian Dice was not available, but he had another ace up his sleeve-or should we say–egg in his basket. We weren’t sure if the rights for that game were available at the time, so Keymaster Jen reached out to Scott. It’s easy to teach to new players, but still holds strategic weight and doesn’t skimp on the fun. It’s a clever and straightforward press-your-luck dice game that feels like a standalone mini-game in one of Scott’s bigger titles. ![]() This title caught our eye in the past because it was so easy to pick up and play with friends-you can try it right now online on Board Game Arena. Scott may be known as the maker of the Tiny Epic series or Heroes of Land, Air, and Sea, but to his family, he’s the guy that made Martian Dice. With a tiny epic BANG, we were hooked, and now there’s a joke around Keymaster that Kyle buys every Almes game-sometimes without even knowing it. Scott’s games feel like several fun mini-games across one big arc with quirky mechanics like poker-driven worker placement or dice-fighting goblins. Scott had a way of creating fun and exciting moments by interpreting familiar systems in a new light. Tiny Epic Western and Quest were our first forays into the world of Scott Almes’ mind. ![]() We were in that “buy-and-play-everything-you-can” phase, and the Tiny Epic Series was blowing up Kickstarter after Kickstarter. The story of Chicken! starts several years ago at one of our weekly game nights. What better time than when we have a new game right around the corner. Think of these posts similar to a “behind-the-scenes,” or director’s notes on the process that goes into hatching up the fun. Here at Keymaster, we like to do a deep dive into our games from time to time. It is finally over.Chicken! is live and clucking over on Kickstarter! Grab those egg baskets and check it out. It is over, brave, chicken-fuelled knight. ![]() Gone are the days when you would have to frantically wipe your greasy, stubby, grease-laden, greasy hands down your cargo shorts during the loading screen, gone are the days of trying and failing to quickscope because your thumb is too lubricated with animal fat, over are all the times you have handed someone a controller after dying (because your sticky pad-bashing fingers are like butter-covered eels thrashing in a bathtub) only for it to slide straight out of their hands like a bar of soap and stick to your carpet like a sticky, hot boiled sweet clinging to the roof of your mouth.Ī thing of the past it will be, to dab your greasy meat-fist from the bucket of chicken to the X button, bucket to the button, bucket to the button, rectangular eyes never once blinking or turning away from the screen, button to chicken, chicken to button, grease, grease, grease, grease, until you find yourself jamming away at the X once more like a frustrated pirate punching a hole through a map, only now it won’t quite respond, having been jammed slightly into the innards of the Xbox controller itself at a crucial junction as you, hot wing in hand, chicken slobber down chin, crash and burn out of the game once more. No longer will you have to choose between a serious game of PUBG and that giant bucket of grease in front of you, thanks to the new grease controller.

![]() The recording was heard at Columbia Records, who offered Royal a singing contract in 1965 and released his version of the song, produced by South. Royal was a friend of performer and songwriter Joe South, and recorded what was intended as a demo of South's song " Down in the Boondocks". He formed his own rock and roll band, and became a local star at the Bamboo Ranch in Savannah in the late 1950s and early 1960s, where his singing style was influenced by African-American performers, including Sam Cooke. ![]() His most successful record was " Down in the Boondocks" in 1965.īorn in Valdosta, Georgia, to Clarence and Mary Sue Smith Royal, and raised in Marietta, Georgia, Royal performed at the Georgia Jubilee in Atlanta during his teens. But I know exactly what Ray Charles feels, too," Royal once said, and by the beginning of the new century, a host of reissues of Royal's work testified to his status as a vocal craftsman whose success transcended genre.Billy Joe Royal (Ap– October 6, 2015) was an American country soul singer. Royal launched a comeback with the 1998 album Stay Close to Home on the Intersound label, following up with the independent release Now and Then, Then and Now in 2001. He continued to have minor hits into 1992 and toured into the 2000s. By 1990, Royal's style of pop-inflected country had been replaced by neo-traditional honky tonk at the top of the charts, and his popularity began to decline. Over the next two years he had a string of Top 40 hits, breaking into the Top Ten in late 1987 once again with "I'll Pin a Note on Your Pillow." In 1989, Royal released the album Tell It Like Is the title cut, a remake of the venerable soul standard, became his biggest hit, peaking at number two, while the album itself stayed in the Top 15 for over a year. The single became a hit and reached the country Top Ten in early 1986. In 1984, he broke through when he recorded the Gary Burr composition "Burned Like a Rocket" it was picked up by the Atlantic label, which signed Royal to a contract. The wrong-side-of-the-tracks theme of "Down in the Boondocks" was a familiar one to country audiences, and during the early '80s Royal worked on establishing himself as a country artist. In 1978, he recorded a cover of "Under the Boardwalk" and scored a minor hit. He also did a bit of acting on television, in feature films, and in commercials. Following its success, Royal had a string of lesser hits, including the Top 40 pop singles "I Knew You When," "I've Got to Be Somebody," and "Cherry Hill Park." By the end of the decade, Royal's star waned, and he became a regular performer in Las Vegas and around Lake Tahoe. The song became Royal's breakthrough single, reaching number nine on the pop charts and briefly making the vocalist into a teen idol. The demo ended up at Columbia, and the label signed Royal to a six-year deal. Royal flew from Cincinnati (where he was working at the time) to Atlanta and cut "Down in the Boondocks," whose churchy echo resulted from the use during recording of a large septic tank that had been dragged into the studio. Royal and South roomed together for a time, and two or three years later South contacted him with a song he wanted Royal to sing as a demo, in the hope that Gene Pitney would record it. In 1962, he recorded an independent single that went unnoticed. Performing at a nightclub that also booked Sam Cooke and other African-American stars, Royal observed their vocal moves and began to practice them on his own time. He also spent time in Savannah, where he was influenced by African-American vocal styles and began to develop his distinctive vocal sound. Royal had his own rock & roll band in high school and was regularly singing around Atlanta by the age of 16. ![]() He learned to play steel guitar and joined the Georgia Jubilee in Atlanta at 14, performing with Joe South, Jerry Reed, and Ray Stevens, among several other artists. Royal was born into a family of musical entertainers in Valdosta, Georgia, and made his debut on his uncle's radio show at the age of 11. Although he never had another hit as successful as "Down in the Boondocks," he racked up about 15 singles that hit the country charts over the course of the 1980s. Best known for his country-flavored rock hit "Down in the Boondocks," Billy Joe Royal had a long career that saw him become one of the first pop performers to successfully revive his commercial fortunes by turning to straight country music. There is no suggestion Woolworths will be unsuccessful in getting the deal over the line, but it might have to divest some stores to get there. The ACCC wrote to industry players asking them about the competition landscape for pet products and services. By mid-March, the regulator suspended its timeline on account of “waiting for more information from Petspiration”, and delaying the final call on Woolworths’ $586 million transaction. The ACCC kicked off a review of the deal on January 24, with submissions due February 14. ![]() Woolworths CEO Brad Banducci and his pet dog Juno. The ACCC and Woolworths declined to comment. Two pet industry sources said the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission is delving into prior deals done by the company, PETstock, which took place before Woolworths snapped up a 55 per cent stake last December. “Our aim is to remain a beloved destination for our loyal clients and their furry friends and to do everything possible to turn occasional clients into loyal customers.A suspended timeline for a final decision by the competition regulator on Woolworths’ acquisition of Petspiration Group has invited speculation that the supermarket giant may be running into trouble on its purchase, and forced to sell stores to win approval. “This is just beginning of a long journey,” she adds. We are ready to move forward,” says Kristine. ![]() “After securing our space for the shop, we feel much more confident than before. The programme also offers advisory services with funding from Sweden to help women-led companies excel in marketing, management, human resources and more. Through WiB and together with the EU, the EBRD works with local partner financial institutions, such as Convers Bank, to help female entrepreneurs access the finance they need to grow their businesses. Our project became a priority and all administrative tasks were processed smoothly and quickly.” “When Converse Bank first learned of our intention to buy a space for one of our shops, they offered us help through the Women in Business programme. “Women entrepreneurs play a critical role in driving economic development around the world, and Armenia is no exception,” says Kristine. The loan enabled Pet City to buy a space for one of its shops, rather than rent. Kristine and Pet City joined the EBRD’s Women in Business programme (WiB) with a loan from a local partner bank, Converse Bank. “From the outset, we have made so many friends ‒ with our employees, our clients, their pets, we feel like a big, happy family.” ‘’We are so lucky to be in this business,” Kristine says. ![]() ![]() All believe in the “pet effect”, that the strong bond between pets and their owners brings not only physical health benefits, but improves mental wellbeing and reduces anxiety and feelings of isolation. Now with three branches across the capital and an online shop, Pet City employs 24 people. “Wet noses, wagging tails, cuddles, the sheer joy they show on seeing us … pets are part of the family and give us unconditional love and emotional support, even when we are feeling low.” ‘’Owning a pet makes you kinder, more thoughtful,” says Kristine. Pet City offers a wide array of pet pampering products, from accessories and toys to grooming products and delicious and nutritious food, but as Kristine says, “nothing comes close to the love and loyalty our little friends share with us so generously”. Kristine’s aim in opening her first shop was to reward these loyal companions by creating a cosy environment, filled with laughter, colour and pleasant aromas, that people could visit freely with their furry friends. Pet City is a client of the EBRD Women in Business programme in Armenia, supported by the European Union and Sweden. Stuck at home during lockdown, Kristine Soghomonyan saw first-hand the benefits to herself and her children of owning and caring for pets.įour German shepherds and a parrot helped her family cope with pandemic-induced isolation and inspired her to open her first Pet City ‒ a magical pet food and accessories store ‒ in Yerevan. This is the story of a courageous Armenian pet lover, who decided to embark on an entrepreneurial journey in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. ![]() ![]() Although our Level Editor tools do not have an in-game tutorial, our community has shared guides with fellow players on how to set-up their own levels and use various features.” ![]() Players can upload their levels to our Steam Workshop, and a Custom Level Select menu allows them to view and play any user-generated levels they have downloaded.

Only users stuck with very old or weak GPUs might have to resort to the lowest settings. With the normal preset and a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels, low-end GPUs from the Intel HD Graphics 4600 on up are sufficient. Even with the DDR3 version of the GeForce GT 750M, we still measured frame rates of just above 40 fps. All things considered, even a GeForce GTX 860M (doesn't matter if Kepler or Maxwell) can guarantee a smooth gaming experience.Ī typical allrounder-notebook is powerful enough to support a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, provided that 4x MSAA is not checked. The most powerful mobile GPU provides similar performance to a middle-class desktop card: the GeForce GTX 880M, for example, reaches 77 fps on ultra and is thus quite comparable to the GeForce GTX 760 (73 fps), which sells for 200-300 Euro ($275-$410). The GeForce GTX 780 Ti managed a frame rate of 123 fps and easily outperforms all single-GPU notebooks with the settings on ultra. Thanks to support from both AMD and Nvidia we were able to extend our inventory of graphics cards with a few current desktop models. AMD notebooks therefore shouldn't have start-up issues like we experienced with F1 2013. Although we've seen this practice in the past, it makes operation a bit convoluted and not as smooth as it could be.Īside from a few software crashes and freezes in some scenes, which we weren't able to reproduce, the technology seems up to par. We don't really like the fact that the menus are nested within each other, however. Great: since all graphics options can be adjusted on the fly, the user doesn't have to stop and restart the game after each and every adjustment. Aside from CMAA and MSAA, GRID Autosport also supports (Q)CSAA and EQAA, although the latter two options are reserved for Nvidia and AMD, respectively. In addition, there are 5 presets (Ultra Low to Ultra) and several anti-aliasing options. While Need for Speed Rivals only offers a handful of options, Codemasters' product has more than 20 of them, which allow the user to tailor the game to his or her liking. The standout feature and a major plus of GRID Autosport is the highly adjustable graphics menu. ![]() 'If this is supposed to be so empowering for women, why is Medusa so skinny and pube-less?

He deeply regretted having returned to Florence and having abandoned his position in Paris, working for the more generous King Francis I. For instance, King Francis paid him 1,000 gold crowns for his most famous work (next to the Perseus & Medusa) – the golden Saliera ( Cellini Salt Cellar, 1543) – even before he started the project.Ĭellini always bemoaned his “misfortune” working on the Perseus and Medusa for Cosimo I. For every object of art that Cellini created, the French King awarded him additional generous gratuities which he received promptly. He drew a yearly salary of 700 gold crowns in France – whereas Cosimo I gave him only 200 gold crowns. In contrast to the Duke, King Francis I apparently gave him as many workmen as he needed for his workshop. ![]() King Francis I, patron of the French renaissance – painting by Joos van Cleve’s workshop, 1530. Read the short story I derived from the most ancient sources, The Story of Perseus, Retold. Perseus = Absolute Power of the Medici Monarchy.īefore it became a political metaphor, there’s more to the story than Perseus’ beheading of Medusa. Thus, in 16th-century Florence, Perseus’ conquest of the Gorgon Medusa, was a powerful metaphor that conveyed: And with a very sharp sword, he beheaded the monster while she was asleep. Using a shiny shield that he used as a mirror he was able to avoid looking directly at Medusa. Perseus, the legendary Greek demi-god, went on a quest to slay the monster. In the myth, Medusa was a Gorgon monster with snakey hair and a stare that could turn men into stone. The Duke immediately commissioned Cellini to create a colossal bronze sculpture of Perseus beheading Medusa. In the tradition of allegorical displays of power through art, the Duke wanted a fitting symbol of his victory over his political enemies and an unmistakable warning to Florence citizens who, still, might harbor republican tendencies. (Learn more about the Medici of Florence here). Unlike his progenitor Cosimo the Elder who ruled Florence a hundred years before him and who avoided explicit displays of power, Cosimo I did the opposite. (Later, he would become Grand Duke of all of Tuscany). Cosimo I had been installed a few years earlier as the Duke of Florence, a city-state that had recently overcome its resurgent republican rebels. Upon returning to his hometown, Cellini introduced himself to Cosimo I de’ Medici.

If they forget to ask, you don't have to pay! Moments Important: the owner must ask you for the rent before the player to your left rolls the dice. You do not pay rent if the property is mortgaged (its Title Deed is face down). If you land on another player's property you must pay rent to them as shown on the Title Deed card. Owning groups earns \ you more rent when other players land on them and lets you build on your moments for even bigger profits. If you don't want to pay the listed price, the property goes up for auction When buying property you should plan to acquire groups.įor example: if you buy a green moment, you should try to get the other two green moments during the game. Pay the Bank, then take the Title Deed card that matches the property and place it near you, face up. You can buy the property you land on for the listed price on the board space. There are three types of property: Moments, Transport Spaces, Utilities When you finish your move and action, pass the dice to the player on your left Watch out! If you roll doubles 3 times on the same turn, you must Go to Jail If you rolled a double, roll the dice again and take another move (steps 1 -4).

We're not sure what format My Super Sweet 16 will return on, but check back here for more information on the status of the beloved franchise. Last year, MTV also announced that it would revive Cribs via Snapchat. Now more than ever, we would like to be reminded of the lighter and happier things in life. We're not sure if this new season of teens will be able to top legends like Teyana Taylor, Quincy Brown, and Demetrius Mosley, but we look forward to watching them try their hardest. If it’s going to be lit, we want to know about it!” According to the notice, MTV is looking for girls and boys planning a “Sweet Sixteen, Quinceanera, Debutante Ball, Debut, or any other coming of age milestone event. ![]() Now, the network reportedly announced the news in an email blast from casting company Doron Ofir. Almost a decade has passed since the last episode aired, which is the perfect amount of time for MTV to officially revive it.īack in 2015, MTV briefly resurrected the iconic series to document the rager of Reginae Carter, also known as Lil Wayne's daughter. For a solid three years, we became obsessed with the ridiculously glamorous lives of spoiled rotten teenagers that got upset when their parents picked the wrong cars to present to them in the middle of their birthday parties that cost more than our weddings ever will. ![]() That would be a step too far.In 2005, the world as we knew it changed forever when MTV debuted My Super Sweet 16. If that’s the case, let’s just pray it doesn’t bring back I Want a Famous Face next. Perhaps MTV is actually doing us all a favour. Perhaps it’s the perfect series to have on in the background when we sever the bungee cord and leap to oblivion. Perhaps My Super Sweet 16 is just the show we deserve now. The show couldn’t be any Trumpier if Nigel Farage ran onstage at the end of every episode and did a flopsweaty thumbs-up beside the bewildered partygoers. And they’re thin-skinned, too, plotting furious revenge on anyone who shuns them or undermines them or dares to steal their thunder. My Super Sweet 16 is unveiling its biggest bash yet. Its stars tend to float along on a familial bubble of inherited wealth that makes them singularly unable to function in the real world. It’s brash, it’s entitled, it’s obsessed with empty posturing and the hollow baubles of wealth. My Super Sweet 16 seems like the perfect product of Trump’s America. ![]() All the classic moments you thought you’d put far behind you – the ballooning party budgets, the giant presents, the fights, the planners who manage to walk the line between stressed and obsequious, the terrified parents so eager to please their little darlings that they can’t see the monster they’re raising – are going to be back, and they’re going to make you just as angry as ever.

The show’s final regular episode aired on 15 June 2008, less than a fortnight after Obama secured enough delegates to become the Democratic party’s presumptive presidential nominee. |
