Aethas Sunreaver Did Nothing Wrong

Sooo... my partner and I spent the last five weeks writing a parser game, a spooky text-based game where you play as a tiny bugfolk who's very hungry, weirdly hungry actually, but it's fine, it's normal, don't even worry about it. Wear tiny costumes! Eat sweet treats!

This is 100% a passion project, no monetization involved; we worked really hard trying to make a small game that was friendly to beginners, prioritized story over puzzles, and introduces an original world without being overwhelming. I'm proud of our little project and just wanted to share. I'll drop a few parser tips under a read more in case anyone wants to check it out.

INGREDIENTS:

4 hamburger buns, split

1 head green leaf lettuce, leaves separated

1 beefsteak tomato, sliced

20 dill pickle slices

FOR THE CHICKEN

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup dill pickle juice

1 ½ cups milk, divided

1 cup peanut oil

1 large egg

½ cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon confectioners’ sugar

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

DIRECTIONS:

Place a chicken breast on a cutting board. With your hand flat on top of it, carefully slice the chicken in half horizontally. Trim excess fat as needed.

In a large shallow baking dish, combine chicken, pickle juice and ½ cup milk; marinate for at least 30 minutes. Drain well.

Heat peanut oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.

In another large shallow baking dish, whisk together remaining 1 cup milk and egg. Stir in chicken to coat and drain excess milk mixture.

In a gallon size Ziploc bag or large bowl, combine chicken, flour and confectioners’ sugar; season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Working in batches, add chicken to the skillet and cook until evenly golden and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

Here also is a link for their famed sauce. Gonna start making it myself.

if one person says easier to pour, one person says more recyclable, and one person says efficient storage (especially if all three have an alternative that is better than both bags and jugs, glass) then you know that its cope and each reason is made up. (also i almost forgot that one lunatic who said it makes the milk expire slower????)

whatever happens next, i do not think it is to be feared. 🌌

my second outer wilds sticker design, this time inspired by echoes of the eye! i wasn't sure of the direction i wanted to go for this one, but i'm happy with it in the end :) ✨
