Can we get a 2 hour stream of Abby playing breakout whilst Black Swan is heard playing in the background?

Abby, the prizes just say Level 1 and Level 2. Is there a second level on normal? The prizes don't mention anything about difficulty and that seems far too demanding of the typical HER Interactive player.

Yep, I just looked up another walkthrough on YouTube and there's two levels on normal... hate to break it to you. Good news though... I love this series- I used to play these games and they bring back great memories!

I still can't deal with Miles. This all-knowing hell robot that speaks like he's gasping his last breath is so god damn unsettling.

Scorn wishes it could feature Miles in a guest spot.

I had a weird phase a few years ago where I thought it would be a good idea to learn steno shorthand, just because (I think my reasoning was wanting to pick some random useless skill). Who knew Nancy Drew would finally give me a chance to practice my skills??? (because there have certainly been no real life situations so far where I have had to use it, haha).

That early lesson word Abby skipped was "mean", it takes a while to wrap your head around the fact that the strokes are sounds and not one-to-one with individual letters.

I took metalshop in high school as well. My teacher was so funny and so caring, extremely intelligent and very understanding. I had a vivid memory of being in Grade 12 metalshop, and the teacher had asked a student who had just transferred in to screw in some coat hangars into a cabinet that we had. The kid looked so embarrassed to say that he didn't know how to do that and was obviously expecting to get yelled at, but instead my teacher said "if you don't know, you don't know!" and then helped the kid install the hangars.

After high school, I got a job in a stainless steel shop, expecting to use it as a stepping stone to an apprenticeship. I was so disappointed that everyone who worked there was vulgar, rude, racist, sexist, ignorant, and any other negative adjective you coiuld throw at them. My experience with anyone in the skilled trades has been as such: they expect everyone to know everything and so they don't explain shit, and then when you mess it up they scream at you. When you ask for help, they treat you like you're braindead, and then bully you for doing the right thing and asking for help. It's such a toxic industry, and it truly blows my mind that my teacher, who loved puns and Star Trek, had worked the better part of his entire adult life in the trades and come out so gentle and understanding.

Cursed indeed but still fun. Think I'd enjoy something different though. Maybe Alex plays those Law and Order? Or the Carmen Sandiego sounds interesting.

The robot is actually a good match for what I'd expect a neural net voice to sound like, patched together from sample speech and blended together to remove the seams.

The robot sounding like it's in constant distress is not helping how strange and grim this whole arrangement is.
