This plant is in part distinguished from black-eyed Susan ( R. Other common names for this plant include thin-leaved coneflower (for thin leaves) and three-lobed coneflower (for three-lobed leaves and species name). Lower leaves are ovate to ovate-cordate with long petioles, and upper leaves are less rounded and sessile. Some of the leaves are 3-lobed (less frequently 5- or 7-lobed). Leaves are thin and rough-textured on both sides. Daisy-like flowers (to 1 1/2” diameter) featuring 6-12 yellow rays and brown-purple center disks bloom profusely from summer to fall. This is a densely-branched plant that typically grows to 2-3’ (less frequently to 5’) tall. In Missouri, it typically occurs in wet woods along streams, alluvial thickets, rocky slopes at the base of bluffs and along roadsides throughout the state except for the far southeastern corner (Steyermark).

2LDK – Yukihiki Tsutsumi’s Duel Project film.He discovers that he has been given the power of immortality by the swordsman, a man once known as the legendary Miyamoto Musashi, who now lives an endless existence as Aragami, a "god of battle". Aragami (originally titled Twin Souls: The Path of Shadows) is an action-adventure stealth video game developed and published by Lince Works for Linux, Microsoft Windows, OS X, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch.

One samurai awakes to find that not only has his comrade died, but that his wounds have miraculously healed. Let’s boogie Get 20 off with code FINDYOURVIBE. Two seriously wounded samurai find refuge from a storm at an isolated temple, the home of a swordsman and a mysterious young woman. High quality Aragami inspired clocks designed and sold by independent artists around the world. It was Kitamura's contribution to the Duel Project, a challenge issued by producer Shinya Kawai to him and fellow director Yukihiko Tsutsumi to film a feature length movie with only two actors, battling in one setting, in only the time frame of one week. Aragami is a 2003 Japanese action film directed by Ryuhei Kitamura. He is slightly smarter than the average Decepticon. This has led to him being classed as a serial killer by the Autobots. Runabout's Dreamwave bio indicated that he simply lived to commit one evil deed after the other, especially targeting attractive structures, even on the battlefield. Starscream later returned to Trypticon to connect Unicron's head to Cybertron and make it his new body, but was stopped by Dirge, Thrust and the Battlechargers, who sabotaged Trypticon, before Autobot planted explosives blasted Unicron's head into orbit. Runamuck was able to send for reinforcements, but the two traitors escaped after Starscream took over Astrotrain. Starscream possessed Runabout and had him shoot Runamuck. During this episode he was one of the Decepticons who were guarding Trypticon, when Scourge (who was thought a traitor by the Decepticons for his possessed actions earlier) and the ghost of Starscream arrived to steal one of the battle station's eyes, as part of a deal with Unicron to get Starscream's body back. Runabout's presence in the Transformers television series is limited to one episode - where he was among the Decepticon forces in the third season episode "Ghost in the Machine". Runabout also appeared as part of Galvatron's forces in a nightmare alternate universe where Unicron had destroyed Cybertron, and Galvatron and the Decepticons ruled Earth. comics divergent continuity Earthforce tales, as part of the Decepticon forces under Megatron and Shockwave. While Runabout was indeed not seen again, Runamuck does later reappear, fighting and dying among Megatron's forces in battle against Jhiaxus's second-generation Cybertronians.īoth also appeared in the U.K. A wreck that appears to be Runamuck in vehicle mode was shown among the casualties of the battle, while Runabout was killed soon after by a cannibalistic race of primitive mechanoids who emerged from under Cybertron's surface. They would not show up again until much later in the series, when they appeared as part of a group of rogue Decepticons recruited by Shockwave to fight Scorponok in the Decepticon Civil War, attacking the Decepticon base in New Jersey, before all involved were transported to Cybertron, where both later took part in the climactic battle with Unicron. They caught up with the Battlechargers as they defaced the Statue of Liberty and defeated them both, dropping their broken bodies into New York Harbor. Stripped of her command in RAAT, she turned to a group of Autobots she had captured led by Blaster, who agreed to let her combine them into a super-Autobot if she would let them go afterwards. They would then encounter the Transformer hating Circuit Breaker, who attacked them and nearly killed the family the two Battlechargers had been following. Inspired by the youngster, they followed him and his family throughout America, graffiting Mount Rushmore and the Washington Monument on the way. Taking him up on this, the two Battlechargers caused random mayhem, until witnessing a young boy scrawling graffiti. Marvel Transformers comics in issue 23 where they responded to Megatron's request to announce a challenge to Optimus Prime in a dramatic fashion. Runabout and Runamuck first appeared in the U.S. That said, Runabout usually joins in with whatever mad ideas Runamuck comes up with, just to keep from being bored. Runabout is not the brains of the Battlechargers, but he is much calmer and certainly more articulate than Runamuck, and his presence helps keep the latter's cross-wired mind on task. The first Runabout formed one half of the Battlecharger duo with Runamuck. "A pretty car makes an even prettier wreck." Players can spend money on new gear they can take into future missions, as well as on upgrades for their existing items. Players can turn off light switches to stop power from flowing to different areas, turn on air conditioners or break windows to deal with poisonous gas, use the fire axe to destroy items blocking their path, and more.Īs players complete missions, they’ll earn money based on their performance. In addition to the fire, each emergency environment has a variety of obstacles to watch out for and react to, such as electricity and poisonous gas. Each mission is played separately, and players can replay each one as many times as they want to improve their performance or earn more cash. For instance, the main “Rescue Mission” asks players to rescue people and items from a burning structure, the “Salvage” mission asks players to recover as many objects from a building as they can before it burns down, and so on. The game features multiple emergency locations to visit, and most of these locations have multiple mission types to complete. (It is possible for people to die if you don’t get to them in time, in which case you’ll see a skeleton on the ground when you eventually find them.) Source: Muse Games, Curve Digital Or, at least save as many as you can in the time you have available. Instead, you’re asked to save every person and valuable object inside a building before it burns down. That is, the goal here isn’t to put out the fires. From there, they’ll have a limited amount of time to rescue citizens and their belongings from each burning building before it’s totally destroyed. Players can equip themselves with a variety of tools to help them navigate each fire scene, such as a fire hose “gun,” ladder, trampoline, and fire axe. Rather than having a serious tone, Embr is light-hearted and wacky (for instance, you may need to save a person who is fully clothed but sitting on a toilet). The firefighting game allows players to become a rookie firefighter challenged with saving citizens and earning as much money as possible from each emergency. Embr is now available on consoles and PC.

He declined chemotherapy, decided to go on one last tour, and recorded a "final" album, "Going Back Home," with Roger Daltrey of The Who. The prospect of death unexpectedly revived his creative energies. In 2012, Johnson was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and was told it was terminal.

'GAME OF THRONES' STUDIO TOUR TAKES FANS BEHIND THE SEVEN KINGDOMS Also the music is a varied mix of tunes from many different genres but a lot of it sounds like generic public domain music and you can’t seem to filter out the songs you don’t like from the playlist. They’re perfectly functional though and so planning your way around a tricky level is easy to do but the PS5 upgrade doesn’t improve this at all and the game looks just as it did before (although we’re assuming the frame rate is better but we never noticed any frame rate issues before). The main visuals are a bit drab with lots of bleak future settings and muted neon colours. The levels are mostly destructible too which means you can blast through walls to get to your target differently to how the level first presents itself.Īs with our previous review, the only real knocks on Jydge as a game are in the presentation. Whether you are sneaking around stealth-killing perps or blazing through a speed run with everything you’ve got, the combat is satisfying and exciting. And Jydge also excels when it comes to the action. Beating a level in 14 seconds when the challenge target is 15 remains a legitimate thrill. When you combine that with just how tightly designed the levels and challenges are, it makes Jydge a really engaging game and one that offers quite a lot of content, even if the levels are recycled a few times. The depth of this system is the sort of thing that 10TonsLtd are the masters at and it makes the game so much more compelling than if it was a basic shooter. Admittedly, we stuck with missiles for most of the game but some challenges did require something more subtle. And the same goes for your powerful secondary weapon too. You can also upgrade your ‘Gavel’ which is your gun, switching primary fire types from basic lead bullets to reflective lasers, ion charges, sniping and way more other options than you can list here but you can also upgrade the gun’s capacity, fire and reload speed and melee effectiveness. You’ll need to switch these around too depending on what challenges you are facing. The upgrades are numerous, allowing you to focus on speed, strength, endurance, stealth and many other aspects of your character. So where previously you may have gone in with the objective of killing a high value target and escaping in 20 seconds, the next time you might have to stealth the whole level or do it melee only.Īs you kill enemies, loot containers and complete objectives, you’ll earn money and this can be spent on upgrades for your Jydge and equipment. After a while you unlock harder difficulty levels and these come with different challenges on the same stages. So, for example, the aim of the level might be to rescue the hostages but the other challenges may be to kill all enemies in the level, loot all the containers, beat a time limit, don’t get hurt or spotted and so on. As judge, jury and executioner this meant you had free rein to kill the bad guys while taking on a main objective which was backed up with two other challenges. What set Jydge apart was that the levels were short, well-designed affairs where you, the titular Jydge (a homage to 2000 AD’s Judge Dredd) would enter by car, clear out the level objectives and then leave. Each game was different in approach but shared a visual style and the basic twin-stick shooting core mechanic. Lovecraft which hopefully is due a PS5 upgrade too. The first was the excellent rogue-lite Neonchrome which was followed by the mediocre time-bender Time Recoil and the unofficial quadrilogy ended with the spectacular shooter Tesla vs. So we were thrilled to see it pop up on the PS5 store as a legit launch title and even more thrilled when we realised that meant a whole new trophy set and therefore a reason to replay the whole game.įor the uninitiated, Jydge was the third game in a series of four twin-stick shooters from 10TonsLtd. In going for the platinum trophy we really dug deep into the game and actually it ended up being one of our favourite indies of the whole generation. It was a twin-stick shooter with an emphasis on weapon and character upgrades and it benefitted from some truly excellent level design. We reviewed the PS4 version of Jydge back in 2017 and it turned out to be a real hidden gem.

I’d love to do a “badges I somehow missed at DEF CON” post! If you had a hardware badge at DEF CON that didn’t make it into this roundup, please email me (mike at the most obvious domain). If you enjoyed reading about them, please help me out by sharing this post around so that others can enjoy it as well. I spent a lot of time trying to track down details of these badges. He was also wearing an NSL Cylon v2 which is a kit for surface mount soldering practice. It shows time using GPS sync keep it accurate and includes temperature, compass, and some ancillary functions. It features a color screen OLED screen and the Propeller driven wearable hangs out on a leather wristband. Above you can see two that was wearing at the con. There were a ton of miscellaneous hardware offerings and admittedly I didn’t get pictures of very many of them. Keep reading for ten more great badges seen over the weekend. The matte black solder mask looks fantastic, and he took great care in use of font, size, alignment, and things like letting copper show through for a really stunning piece of hardware art. The piezo element also chirps many different sounds based on the interactions with different badges. When the two are in the same area the 2015 badges will scroll the nickname of the 2014 badge it “sees”. This badge is slave to commands from last year’s badge. There is a spinner around one eye, and pads for select and back. The user controls are all capacitive touch. Two AA batteries power the board which has a surface-mount LED matrix. The eyes are RGB pixels which are each on their own PCB that is soldered onto the back of the badge, with openings for the LED to show through. It uses a PSOC4 chip to control a ton of LEDs. This is a great update from the badge he designed last year, keeping the skull and bones outline. Did a great job with his badge design this year for the Whiskey Pirate Crew. |
