The Switch version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door includes its own fictional language that is a cipher for English. Amusingly, the misspelled "Game Cuve" graffiti from the original version is translated into the new language... but still reads "Game Cuve" when deciphered.
The Nintendo Switch version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door contains an in-universe language used for signs and labels that is a cipher (i.e. a one-to-one symbol conversion) for English.
Textures that were in English or unreadable in the original (left) are translated into the cipher in the remake (right). The remake's poster reads "Wanted" and the signboard reads "Signboard".
A famously misspelled "Game Cuve" graffiti appears in Rogueport in the original.
In the remake, it can be seen through this arch from the back.
Analyzing it reveals that it is still misspelled! The designers deliberately kept the misspelling in the translation.
Here is the key to the cipher used.

Made me realize discussions on difficulty are tricky - there are two things that often get conflated, because a game can have both 1. games ABOUT overcoming difficulties (broadly, post-souls action RPGs/roguelikes) 2. Games that are difficult but not focused on 1's feeling (arcade, some RLs)

the stuff w/ jacob geller is enormously disappointing but i'd like to pull people up on the specific point that "he should've disclosed this" from everything we know, the victim did not want this and the person who did reveal it seemed to be doing so from a place of like, idk weird gossip?

everything about the jacob geller allegations is deeply upsetting and traumatising, from the details themselves to their being publicised on twitter by third party texts seemingly without any consultation with the victim to the armchair detective posting that followed

20 More, Somehow Even Smaller, Mazes (30min) I'm glad FLEB went back to this, it's way better than 20 Small Mazes!! Some great ideas displayed here while following the "game object" design we've seen in Strange Jigsaws. The perfect free game to play before the next major FLEB game 😌

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door inadvertently depicts Peach as the quickest typist in the world. She is able to type up a 126-word email in exactly 3 seconds, making her 8 times faster than the current typing speed world record.
In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Peach sends multiple emails to Mario during the plot. Almost all of them take her exactly 3 seconds to type.
The length of the emails she types in 3 seconds varies from 54 words to the longest one seen below, at 126 words.
Peach: I'm OK
My Dearest Mario, I send this letter in the hope that it reaches you safely. I am being held against my will in some strange place. Though I do not know where I am, I remain unharmed and in relative comfort.
Those who have captured me seem to be after the map I sent to you earlier. They may be hoping to use it to find objects they call the "Crystal Stars." I do not know what they are planning, but I have a feeling it is not anything positive.
Mario, please collect these Crystal Stars before they do. You must! They are already aware that you have the map, so please be very careful.
And please... Don't worry about me.
-Princess Peach-
At the current world record typing speed of 319 words per minute, Peach should have been able to get about this far into the email.
In order to finish the email in three seconds, she needed to type with an a speed of 2520 words per minute, 7.9 times the world record.
While the quick typing is clearly merely a way to make the scene move along more quickly and should not be taken as accurate depiction of Peach's typing skills, it is still humorous to imagine the implications arising from it if taken at face value.

I think what I'm envisioning for this game is a sort of high anime type dealio with like mechs and robots and bright colours and such. the mspaint graphics were sorta inspired by early webcomics and flash animations and so it was gonna "feel" sorta like the chuuni stuff we would make back then
