ArRRRrRrgh! Now I have the "Wonder World" earworm stuck in my head! I wonder if Wonder employed the Sherman Bros. to compose that song? It was sort of a mash-up of "It's A Small World", "Step In Time" from Mary Poppins, and "Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang". Did you have AI create that for you? I actually kind of like it... in an annoying sort of way. As always, Scooter was unintentionally amusing. I really like your arcade! Like, cititrader, I also liked the posters of other movies/books/TV in the Starliner queue. And like Wagi noted, the sound effects added an immersive quality to the video.

Really nice pictures of the (unfinished) castle! I especially like the 3rd one, the castle bordered by the two large stately trees with the trolley in the center. The last pic (nighttime) looks great with the castle peeking through the hanging tree branches!

The wild mix of colors and architecture really make this an exciting and fun place to be!

I have no idea either, but I'm gonna say C: 111, just because. There are more constellations than you can shake a stick at... Why you would shake a stick at constellations, I don't know. But to each his own.

"they don't even have handles!". You could say that they're sake cups! Problem solved!

Interesting name, "Hades Grip". Is there a story behind it?

It's amazing how accurately you've reproduced the real zoo in PZ!

Such an inviting restaurant! As nice as the interior looks, I think I would take my food out onto the terrace or one of the gazebos. Or maybe I would eat there three times so I could experience all three dining atmospheres. I also like the pink rhododendrons. (At least I think that's what they are?)

We had corn on the cob about a week ago, and I was the one who shucked the corn, so I got a pretty good look. Thinking back and visualizing, I would guess that there are... [JB stops and visualizes some more.]... I was gonna say 24, but now I think I agree with citytrader and I'll say: B: 16

I like the 'ranch' style setting for these animals. They're kind of familiar looking, so the 'corrals' suits them. Hmm, Somali wild asses = zebras without stripes. ;-)

"And each and every fire truck has its own air-horn and bell for the kids to ring, honk, and blast to their hearts' delight!". They look great!

Hmm, this one has me stumped. You said the structure(s) loads into an empty park without any problem, and you've tried all the usual things: Shadows off- check. Large Address Aware- check. Park CleanUp- check. All I can think of is double-checking that the game's .exe file is actually being used by Large Address Aware (it can be a little confusing). If the game isn't making use of the extra memory that LAA enables, I can see how that would let you load the structure into a blank park but not into a park that is already near the upper memory size.

These all look great! Now all you need to do is make some fake kiddies to ride the fake rides.

^ I was right. It IS silly. ;-) Also, the "no one knows" answer is also correct since no one really knows how many ways there are to cook an egg. (Actually, I think I have also heard the 'egg' explanation before, I just don't like it because it's obviously arbitrary.) Nevertheless, looks like citytrader is gonna take the cake on this one... (cakes are also a way to cook eggs... and cookies... and meatloaf... and noodles, etc. Probably tens of thousands of ways!) [JB steps down from his soapbox and takes a sedative]

The aerial shots are nice, especially the first one. I like that underground view that the guests get to experience. Looks like Wanda's pal has lost his glowing red demonic eyes. Of course, the glowing eyes were probably just a figment of Wanda's inebriated imagination. Not sure if she was inebriated at that time, but it's safe to assume so.

I'm gonna say: D: No one knows. I wasn't even aware that the number of folds is an established tradition... seems kinda silly for it to actually represent something.

Very nice! "Gulch of the Gore King"? That sounds...... interesting. ;-)

I'm stumped! How did you make the black & white set pieces change to COLOR?

Mnandi Grill looks like a nice, casual, approachable eatery; I like it! But why does it only serve hamburgers? I mean, I have nothing against the good people of Hamburg, Germany, but what about the rest of us? We gotta eat, too! And I hate to say it, but you've conditioned us so that every time Scooter or Wanda appears in a screenshot I hear the high-pitched, screechy violins from Psycho's shower scene. Zimbwowee Village is a very nice, and appropriate addition to Animal World. Congratulations on its completion!

I love how the vines are draped onto the rock cliffs. These hippos look especially blubbery, they must be well fed! I was gonna say that Wanda and/or Scooter must not be in charge of this area but THERE SHE IS! "A chill wind doth blow this way". Or maybe, "Something incompetent this way comes."

Wow, so much going on here! Like wolfpaw, I also love the new tree, it's more 'oak-y' and natural looking. And that restaurant!!! Truly wonderful! As for long posts versus shorter posts, I prefer the shorter ones. With the long posts, we tend to gloss over, or omit, much of the interesting detail in our comments. I think you would get lengthier, and more detailed comments if the posts are shorter. Fantastic update!

I didn't think it was aged at all. So I'll say A: 3 hours. I'm a sriracha guy myself.

I'm surprised there is even one! I suspect the only number is the example you provided: A: 1. Then again, number are infinite, soooo...

The gazelle enclosure looks great. And I like how you provided an area where the animals can 'escape' us humans. But what about Wanda and Scooter? How do they escape from them??? (I'm thinking of the flamingos.)

Wow, this zoo has talking animals: Gorillas, penguins, and sea lions! (Sorry, couldn't resist.)
