A word for when you're scraping food out of a dish into a tupperware and you wonder if the effort you're expending on extracting those last few scraps is greater than the chemical energy actually contained within them

Also it still has anomalies for some reason. Bug anomalies.

Open-world bug-catching immersive sim. Insects have simulated AI that reacts to various stimuli, a-la Half-Life roaches, and also pursue control of objectives, either alone or as a faction, a-la S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Clear Sky

It's a major injustice of our language that an adjective as cool as 'draconian' means 'it's really strict and harsh and sucks a lot' instead of 'it's magical and ancient and... really warm? hey, check out how warm this is'

@Trashbang 150. The world is barren.
170. No more clouds or stars.

199. No more day.

@Trashbang As you level up, the monsters start disappearing, but it's not just them. Something felt off about the zealot in the village, but you can't find them at all anymore. Eventually you reach level 100 and the monsters are all gone, but it keeps going. Level 101, 102. People are going missing. Pets are disappearing. 104, 105. The town bridge is gone. 110, 120. Plants fade from the landscape. 130, 140. Whole cities gone.
