Of course, the guy can’t do much more than color commentary since he’s nothing more than a disembodied head strapped to Juliet’s waist. A few hours into the five-hour story I was sick of hearing anyone say anything - except for Nick, Juliet’s boyfriend. The exhausting vulgarity is amusing early on but grows annoying shortly afterward. When shocking and titillating the player take precedent over the core gameplay loop, we have problems. Obscenity eventually hits a point where it’s no longer contributing to anything. In and out of combat, the primary goal of Lollipop Chainsaw is the money shot, whether it’s up Starling’s skirt or down her shirt. For every zombie Juliet Starling decapitates with her chainsaw, someone calls her a whore, talks about masturbating to her, or comments on her gigantic breasts. ![]() At some point, however, the over-the-top exploitation of a hyper-sexualized high school student isn’t the parody it started as anymore. Lollipop embraces exploitation to poke fun at itself - everything is excessively violent, excessively sexual, and mashed together with glitter, sparkles, and rainbows. Profanity is as prevalent as innuendo, and the open-faced absurdity is endearing. It has fun with itself and is proud to be what it is. From top to bottom, Lollipop Chainsaw is self-aware and utterly silly. If you can’t hang with the nonsense from the start, you won’t keep up as the obscene insanity spirals further out of control. In the first five minutes, a voluptuous blonde goes from welcoming you to her bedroom to having a steamy shower scene to slaughtering zombies in her high school. Even fewer are willing to leave you behind if you aren’t into it. ![]() The examples are a little dated but the concepts are still highly relevant I highly recommend it.Few games establish a tone as firmly and quickly as this one. Joel Spolsky’s excellent book “ User Interface Design for Programmers” has a chapter on user’s expectations, and it’s actually available online as a blog post. So make sure that you’re aware of what mental models your users already have before using your interface. In this example, if Lollipop Chainsaw pushed that score over to the right side (where the other aggregate figures are), it wouldn’t have triggered those same thoughts. This is what we’ve been taught since the first grade – don’t mess with it. ![]() I’m deeming this one “Mark’s law of number stacks”: If you’re putting a stack of numbers on top of another, larger number, everyone expects that the big number is a total of the smaller numbers. That’s three different scores that all seem to represent how well I did in the level, and I don’t really know which of them to believe. Not to mention my “hunter level” of 18.0, whatever the heck that means. You can figure it out, but on first glance, one would think those values should be the same. When the interface doesn’t fit the user’s mental baggage, it means they have to stop and think for a second what’s going on.Īnd there’s a fair amount of consideration to have on this screen – consider that the letter grade next to my score is an A+, while my overall rank is a C+ (which is an average of all the letter grades on this screen). The user’s expectation is that a stack of numbers followed by a large number at the bottom indicates that the big number is a total of what’s listed above. The point is, the way this screen is laid out it looks like those numbers should add up. Of course, the answer is simple – it comes from killing zombies, among other in-game score bonuses that aren’t listed on this screen. Where on earth is the other 90% of my score coming from? Apparently I did pretty well somewhere, as I got an A+ in total score despite receiving zero A-pluses in the listed scores. But if you add up the numbers that are above it, those don’t total anywhere close to that – it’s only 28,720, less than 10% of my total score. The screenshot claims my score is 384,620. ![]() I snapped this screenshot at the end of stage 5. It looks like the game is producing some seriously fuzzy math, and it’s an example of how important it is to mind your users’ expectations. Okay, score is important in Lollipop Chainsaw, what’s the big deal, and how is this related to usability at all? It’s how the score is presented to the player. But it’s true, much like the game of Diablo III has barely started by the time you beat the story once, Lollipop Chainsaw begs to be played again and again so you can rack up a massive score. Destructoid’s review compares it to the SEGA classics House of the Dead and Crazy Taxi – odd comparisons for a hack and slash game. Lollipop Chainsaw is, undoubtedly, a high-score fest.

Roll up, roll up to see panto join the circus, and be swept away by a pantomime spectacular that’s just right!ĭisclaimer: Panto is a lot of fun, but sometimes it can be a little bit loud, and a little bit cheeky, with some jokes that only grown-ups will understand. One day Goldilocks was walking in the forest. Southey’s version of the tale, called ‘The Story of the Three Bears’, marked its debut in print, when it appeared in Southey’s book The Doctor. Will they succeed? All seems lost until three brilliant bears join the gang… Goldilocks and the three bears Short story Once upon a time there was a little girl. The author of that original version of the Goldilocks fairy tale to be published was Robert Southey, who was UK Poet Laureate from 1813 until his death in 1843. Goldilocks’ circus is under threat from an evil rival circus owner and, with the help of their madcap circus friends, they’re battling to rescue their Big Top from ruin. This festive extravaganza is packed with riotous comedy, extraordinary special effects, hair-raising stunts and international circus acts!

You can also use the “-SimpleMatch” parameter to use simple matching instead of regular expressions, see the below example. Select-String -Path "c:\psscript\examplegrep.txt" -Pattern "test" –AllMatches You can also use the “ -AllMatches” parameter to return all matches, not only the first match in the line, see the below example. Select-String -Path "c:\psscript\examplegrep.txt" -Pattern "test" –Quiet You can also use the “-Quiet” parameter to return True or False if the pattern found it returns true else it returns false, see below example. Select-String -Path "c:\psscript\examplegrep.txt" -Pattern "test" –NotMatch ![]() ![]() You can also use the “-NotMatch” parameter to display the lines that do not match the pattern, see the below example. Select-String -Path " c:\psscript\examplegrep.txt" -Pattern "test" -List You can also use the “-List” parameter to display the line number and context of each match, see the below example. Here I have used the -Include parameter that specifies the types of files to search in, and the -Recurse parameter tells the cmdlet to search all subfolders within the specified folder. Select-String -Path " c:\psscript" -Pattern "test" -Include "*.txt" –Recurse In the above example, we have to search for a specific string in a single file you can also search for a string or regular expression in multiple files by specifying the path to a folder see the below example. Select-String -Path "c:\psscript\examplegrep.txt" -Pattern "Hi", "Hello" You can also search for multiple strings or regular expressions at the same time by specifying them as an array to the “-Pattern” parameter of the select-string command, see the below example – The output returns all the lines where the “test” term is found in the given text file. Select-String -Path "c:\psscript\examplegrep.txt" -Pattern "test" Here’s an example of how you can use the Select-String cmdlet to search for the string “test” in a file named “examplegrep.txt”: The Select-String in PowerShell is equivalent to the grep command. The reason is that the out-of-the-box Windows console terminals are using their own way to color in/out, and not using escape sequences for coloring. Unfortunately any coloring and string operations in PowerShell is a royal PITA. In PowerShell, you can use the “Select-String” PowerShell cmdlet to search for a specific string or regular expression in one or more files. The Long answer is that anything is possible, but. In this article, we discuss do we have any PowerShell grep cmdlet if yes then how to use the same to search for specific strings or regular expressions in one or more files like we have the ‘grep’ command in Unix-like operating systems. That adaptability has been one of her favorite parts about working at a place like Yelp. Over the last few weeks, they’ve also been using their platform to highlight the stories of Black-owned businesses. Her team has shifted to organizing a slew of virtual events, ranging from a Cinco de Mayo celebration with Sun King Brewery, to a lunchtime barre class with The Dailey Method, to an online chocolate tasting with Xchocol’Art. Of course, in the world of COVID-19, that sort of thing isn’t always possible. “I like to help people see their city through a new perspective,” she says. Through Yelp, she’s now built partnerships with some of the same local businesses that had purchased the farm-grown food she helped raise.ĭuring her time with Yelp, Smith has discovered a passion for activating public spaces-turning Monument Circle into a pop-up dinner party for 1,000 guests, or organizing an inner tube float down the Central Canal. “I feel like half my education was in the classroom, but the other half was through boots-on-the-ground, first-hand experiences.”Īs a student, Smith was also involved with the Center for Urban Ecology and Sustainability, helping launch The Farm at Butler. “The beauty of Butler is that it’s so well-connected to Indianapolis, which made it an ideal location for me,” she says. She followed through with that goal, completing internships not only with Downtown Indy, but also with Indiana Humanities and Indianapolis Monthly. ![]() She knew she wanted to pursue something related to tourism or community building, and she knew Butler would give her the chance to engage with the city and gain hands-on experience through internships. It was that love for Indianapolis that first brought Smith to Butler, where she majored in English and Communications. ![]() While her current responsibilities expand beyond the city-and even beyond the state-her heart is still in Indy. She loved connecting people with their city.Įight years later, she’s now Yelp’s Regional Director of Marketing and Community for the Midwest. She was the one to spread the word if a bakery added a new kind of croissant, and she told the stories of local parks and other greenspaces. Smith spent her days elevating the city she loved by providing free partnerships with local businesses, hosting and promoting events, and being an advocate for Indy. Yelp does a lot more than provide a platform for restaurant reviews. It was a role that, even today, a lot of people probably don’t know exists. But the chance to serve Indy in a new way, and to help pave the way for the emerging field of community management, was an opportunity she couldn’t turn down. It was a dream role she had worked toward even as a student at Butler University, where she completed an internship with the organization that opened doors for a full-time position.Īnd she loved it. It was the spring of 2012, and Smith had just wrapped up the first year of her post-grad career on the communications team at Downtown Indy, Inc., where she helped promote Indianapolis as a leisure destination.
