The Madness

Wed Aug 26, 2009, 11:41 PM
Still unemployed, still failing at doing anything productive with it in the meantime.

That said, I have been playing Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box (which is a brilliant game that deserves to be purchased), and I've noticed something rather curious. As you play through this game, you will find that you slowly accumulate notes. Not in-game notes, but scraps of paper you find lying about that you add little tidbits to. But you're not actually paying attention to the paper itself when you take down these notes; Rather, you're focused exclusively on solving the puzzle, and your scribblings will reflect this. But, when you take a break from the game and glance around, you find yourself surrounded by scraps covered with irregular numbering, nonsensical calculations, and a plethora of inexplicable symbols. It's almost as if you're living with any genuinely insane character Jim Carey plays. It's really quite unnerving.

Then you just shrug it off and get back to figuring out how to bisect a two-dimensional doughnut into two identical shapes in a single cut without passing through the hole.
