I wonder how many people will shit on his game.

 

[KeyChainDude]

I think this was supposed to be a joke. But it was piss poor.

 

[ScientificPizza]

you don't need to do this

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

Is this...MON DIEU!

 

[Iorv3th]

Did he insert the catheter himself or did he make an intern do it.


Better yet is that even his?

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. Bottles of pee at the foot of Jon Blow's couch

I think he might've already done it himself if his tweet is any indication

 

[afternoon delight]

Joke's on him- that is about the last thing you should be sharing via image.

 

[OverBlood 3]

Is he unwell?

 

[Revolutionary]

I think it's a joke? Or something?
I mean it's not a catheter.. I hope.

 

[Hoje0308]

Either it's a joke or he's a moron.

This kinda sums up how I feel about Blow. Real talented guy, but certainly loves to let you know how much he sacrifices for his work. I remember Jontron mentioning an interview Blow did where he made note to mentioned that he had to rent furniture for the interview because he didn't have any in his house because he just puts everything into his game, or something like that. Could tone it down a few notches. That being said, looking forward to The Witness.

Blow doesn't say those things for pity. They're just true. He's a bit eccentric but I've never heard anything in any audio interview that sounded like he was trying to elicit pity for his sacrifices. He just lives his life in a focused way.

What if I told you this game exists? What if I told you it starred John Goodman?

lol I remember reading about it many years ago.

Dude is fucking mad weird. If you can't get up to properly go to the bathroom and take care of yourself you have issues.

 

[Pie and Beans]

that blue tube is connected to another fucking line puzzle.

 

[foxtrot3d]

pee confirmed

Brilliant.

 

[iMax]

pee confirmed

Tinkle in the rain?

 

[mdubs]

 

[Blizzard]

I immediately assumed it was some sort of test thing for a water puzzle, like the glasses with square holes he previously posted.

I refuse to accept pee until it's confirmed!

 

[mattiewheels]

It takes what - 30 seconds to get to the toilet, 30 seconds to pee, 20 seconds to wash hands, 30 seconds to get back

You probably pee about 8 times a day.

So you're probably spending 14 minutes a day peeing, or roughly 1% of your entire day.

Worth keeping a bottle of pee beside your workstation? No.

8 times a day? You must have a really small bladder, or I have some kind of problem.

 

[UpDownLeftRight]

pee confirmed

So he just surrounds himself with bottles of his own piss? No wonder The Witness took so long, he must have spent half that time trying to clean it out of the carpet.

 

[nbnt]

Seeing him in videos, Blow doesn't strike me as someone who would do this. I think it's a joke.

 

[SuperChoco]

Man, I can't imagine why anyone would do this or even share an image like that of twitter. Even if it was efficient, the smell itself must be revolting.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

But is it worth 40$?

 

[Mass Effect]

why

 

[Overside]

Wooden floor means it's 99% likely.

Why? I have hard wood floor in my kitchen and office rooms.

 

[NYCmetsfan]

I'm not joking I was gonna come in here and make a joke about him not working hard enough because he wasn't peeing in bottles like howard huges....

 

[Apoc29]

Jonathan Blow uses a standing desk, at least that's what I learned from Indie Game: The Movie. So he's not exactly sitting all day, although that doesn't really excuse him from not going to the bathroom for a few seconds.

 

[MassiveNights]

8 times a day? You must have a really small bladder, or I have some kind of problem.

I googled it, I have no idea how many times I pee a day to be honest.

 

[AwakenedCloud]

The scariest part is that he's definitely not the first.

 

[Blizzard]

Someone please educate me -- Brad Shoemaker works at Giant Bomb. Jonathan Blow works somewhere completely different. Brad Shoemaker is TESTING The Witness but not developing it, correct?

Why would Brad Shoemaker have actually seen Jonathan Blow's couch? Just seems like Brad is making a joke Blade Runner reference.

yeah this is what I though at first
Didn't even think about pee until this thread

I don't think people know what kind of person Blow is

unless he went completely mad in the last week

 

[SictorVullivan]

I sure hope this is a joke.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Why isn't there a pickle in it?

 

[xxracerxx]

He probably drinks a lot of water like someone should.

[hey_it's_that_dog]

It's either a joke, or he is very serious about not interrupting his flow state when he gets going. Everyone saying "it only takes 30 seconds to pee" isn't accounting for the interruption of thought. I wouldn't be surprised if that was Blow's attitude towards coding when under time pressure.
