Who are Psynthetix?


Well, I figure that if I've got your attention, and I'm gonna keep working on my game, I've got to keep you all entertained until then. So, let's talk about Psynthetix for a brief bit.

Psynthetix is a little band formed by Myles Taylor and his best friend, Stride Jackson (second-left). Originally, they were called Stridin' Myles, and played in Myles' garage, with Myles on lead guitar, and Stride on bass. Myles and Stride were good friends at Aront High School. Cindy "Twilight" Wensleydale (second-right) jumped on board shortly after as keyboarder, and they did their hardest to get Hiro Tetsujin (far left) in the band, since he was the best drummer on campus. Jesse Black (far right) was brought on board when they needed a ride to travel around Trula, and a technician. He's proven himself a good backup guitarist later on. (Susan wasn't in the band yet, since her story doesn't begin yet.)

Eventually, they got a manager, named Tom. He's managed a lot of musical acts, including Stabbington and R-Tina. It was thanks to him that they got the name Psynthetix, and their first major gig, the Instruments of Power tour. It produced a hit single for them, Rock Da World Again.

...oh, and they performed a little for the controversial pop singer, R-Tina, on an album called Co-Ed Celebration.

Eventually, they got a second bass approved by Tom, named Scaramouche Faust. Most people call him Scarry. He has a nasty tendency to steal Stride's riffs, and he's much older than the rest of the band. He'll be disowned due to monster-summoning reasons that will be explained in the game.

Of course, after a certain incident, Susan would join the band, but we'll get to that story when the game comes out.

I hope you appreciate what I go through for pointless details like this.

I don't plan on going this crazy too much, though.

Beware the front-facing DemoBots. They approach the summer home slowly, hoping to demolish it. It's nothing personal; it's just their job.

...but they didn't inform the Robot Maid. Demolition is messy business, and she can't let the house get messy.

Just a reminder. It's coming on the 16th, assuming nothing goes wrong.

Here. For reference.

For this one picture, they're either getting PS4'd, or they get faces.

Despite all this work on the top-down segments, I'm not vibing with 'em.

...might as well send this into Bonus Stage purgatory, and make an additional platform stage.

Now, if I have enough motivation for Mode 7 stages, though...

The next update may be full of bugs.

...moths, mostly.

I need to know where to draw the line on this level.

It's supposed to be a prosthetics factory of The Future. It could use a lot more Factory, though.

I felt some mechanics were underutilized, so I'm making an expansion.

...more or less just a side quest and extra dungeon. No more than that here.

Coming who-knows-when.

A rather interesting thing I forgot about...

Coming soon to another update.

Lemme get some work done with it first, then we'll talk.
