Yaoi

2025-02-13T17:59:58Z

Weird pusheen:

Yaoi, or Boys' Love, is a form of manga primarily concerned with romantic relationships between men.

To the good people of the [[The N-fosphere|n-community]], however, it means something quite different. Near the beginning of the server's history, TheShwarma created a forum thread for intersectional discussions, sensibly naming it "politics megathread". Most of the "major modern debates" were covered, including civil rights (almost 70 years behind our time! Wow!) and freedom of expression (leaving us ''three hundred whole years'' behind the resolution). People came and went, but Delta, TheShwarma, Desboot, and [[User:weird pusheen]] were the most active over the whole span.

Events in late 2024, mostly concerning the Israel/Palestine issue and reproductive rights, led to major social discord (pun intended!) and the retiring of Politics Megathread, which was renamed to Yaoi Megathread. All non-yaoi material was banned from Politics Megathread, a policy we rigorously enforce, and we mostly pivoted to mocking the russian army and sharing pictures of cute men.

Yaoi Megathread is the best source of yaoi on the internet[citation needed] and has entered wide renown, with some [[The Onion|other communities]] becoming quite hostile to any mention of its existence.

Posting non-yaoi material in Yaoi Megathread is punishable by up to 60 seconds of timeout and the suspension of the staff approved based person role. Nobody who has posted in yaoi megathread is permitted access to [[staff-furry-rp]], as we must keep that most beloved channel fully pure.

There have been a number of attempts to censor yaoi, but all were unsuccessful.

== Strategies ==

* Laser's ability to reflect off walls can be used to hit enemies out of reach
* Inductive Charging's boost to energy gain can allow for infinite laser use
* Laser's range, while not infinite, is generally long enough to hit any target in your line of sight

[https://landgreen.github.io/sidescroller n-gon] is a popular browser game developed by high school science teacher [[Landgreen|Ross Landgreen]]. Described as a "2d roguelike sidescroller", its main focus is using realistic/theoretical [[Guns|weapons]] and [[Tech|technology]] to upgrade your character, [[m]], and fight dangerous [[mob]]s. n-gon has been described as "the Yotsuba of browser games" and was nominated for the title of 2025 n-community favorite game.

n-gon was created primarily with JavaScript using the matter.js 2-D physics library, as well as with HTML and CSS. The code is free and open-source and can be found on [https://github.com/landgreen/n-gon GitHub]. [[Community maps]] and [[List of mods|mods]] are a major part of the game.

Mobs are the primary aggressors of n-gon. The gameplay is ''mostly'' centered around killing them with [[Guns]]; [[Block Run|there]] [[Field Run|are]] [[Bot Run|some]] [[Pacifist Run|exceptions]].

Killing mobs occasionally drops [[power ups]], and some [[Tech]] can increase the amount or change their type.

Some [[List of mods|mods]] and [[community maps]] have custom mob types.

The base game mobs are as follows (images pending for when [[Cornbread]] unborks the mediawiki install):
* Starters: also known as octomobs, these green octagons are completely harmless. They will actively avoid you. Nobody has ever been killed by starters; avoiding killing them is [[Pacifist Run|another matter]].
* Slashers: these mobs advance on the player with a laser sword and spin around once they're in range, cutting the player.
* Hoppers: hoppers bounce around with a fairly simple hop algorithm, which gives them surprising pathfinding properties (they can navigate some rooms far better than other mobs). There are also hop mothers, which are hoppers... that spawn more hoppers. Nobody knows why [[landgreen]] thought this was a good idea.
* Stabbers: stabbers are mobs that accelerate quickly on the player and rapidly extend one of their vertices towards to become a fast-moving penetrating projectile. They do purely collision damage.
* Springers: springers are mobs that move by updating their constraint handles closer to the player. They do collision damage only.
* Stingers: stingers are [[Wings|winged]] mobs with a fixed laser sword that towards the player. Their wings do an absurd amount of contact damage, but their lasers are comparatively weak.
* Flutters: flutters are stingers without the laser sword.
* Strikers: strikers are contact-only mobs that drift fairly slowly but accelerate extremely quickly when they get near to the player.
* Shooters: these are stationary triangular mobs that lob small projectiles at the player.
* Grenadiers: shooters, except that they fire grenades.
* Pulsars: pulsars fire intense laser blasts at the player. They have a target locked charging animation that makes them fairly easy to avoid.
* Lasers: the stupid evil triangles of hate. The irrevocably cruel monsters of mobdom. Once a moderately fun mob with a few low-energy stationary lasers, now they are quick-charging pulsed-laser monsters that can end an unsuspecting run. The only consolation is that they have terrible aim. Show no mercy to lasers. They wouldn't hesitate to kill you. Did I mention they can kamikaze you to eat the tiny remains of your health after burning you mercilessly with their lasers? Yeah. They can do that.
* LaserLayers: these mobs cast random lasers through the map that persist for a few seconds and intersect with the player. If the player is unable to get out of the way in the ample charging animation, they will be punished with a light sting. It's unclear what purpose laserlayers serve.
* Sneakers: mobs that turn invisible and mostly invulnerable until they're right behind you. They resurrect once after being killed and do absurd collision damage.
* Launchers: launchers glide slowly towards the player and eject three dangerous particles when they get nearby.
* Exploders: contrary to their name, they don't explode: instead, they do collision damage on contact, and annhilate. These stupid red squares are harmless enough that you can ignore them, which is good, because there tend to be a ''lot'' of them. Their larger variants are legitimately harmful and should be killed immediately.
* Suckers: black holes. They attract the player with gravity, draining the player's energy and doing damage. There used to be a junk tech that spawned a bunch of them.
* Snipers: stationary mobs that stay cloaked most of the time, until they have a clear shot on the player, when they fire small bombs. They're annoying and very hard to kill on open maps where you may not actually be able to see where the shots are coming from.
* Spinners: spinners are essentially strikers that fire from a further distance, accelerate and move faster, and have a spinning animation.
* Growers: growers spend most of their time as inert, weak, but hard-to-hit condensed shapes, until they see the player and ''grow'' to 4-5x their starting size and drift closer for collision damage. They're not particularly threatening.
* Beamers: beamers use their wide halo to drain your energy and health.
* Spawners: aggressive orange rectangles. Essentially an evolved variant of exploders, they occasionally shatter into a group of exploders.
* Ghosters: terrifying white mobs that spend most of their time invisible. They can drift through any obstacle, move absurdly fast, have absurd health, ''and eject your ammo on collisions''. Vengeful death emerges from the walls to encircle you.
* Focusers: focusers fire a long-range beam that they slowly focus onto the player until it's condensed enough to do damage. Mostly just annoying. The easiest way to fight them is to not stand still in the open for prolonged periods of time when you see the very obvious focusing animation.

N-gon upgraded

Weird pusheen:

[https://3xiondev.github.io/n-gon-upgraded/ n-gon upgraded] is a modded n-gon version written by [https://github.com/3xionDev 3xiondev]. It was initially set to be updated daily, but as of this being written an update has not been pushed for about a month. The purpose of this mod is essentially to add content that the community comes up with - several upgrades added to the mod have been community-sourced. The mod focuses on adding new tech and mobs to the game, as opposed to maps and integral features. It is designed to play like normal n-gon if one decides not to choose any upgraded tech.

=== ''where isocyanate?'' ===

== Content Added ==

* Accelerated Mitosis, a SKINtech that enables the player to passively regenerate health at the cost of health orbs losing function.
* Magnetorheological Ferrofluid, a gun that sprays a stream of ferrofluid that gets longer with ammo and draws energy. This is a work in progress.
* Progenitor, a mob that has the ability to spawn other mobs within a certain distance to the player
* Much more
