gollark: > According to gollark, the pathfinding in EWO was really weird because it tried to be turing-complete. This led to the achievement “How the fuck did we get here?”, intended to be almost impossible to obtain, be achievable in less than 6 minutes, by getting all emus to target you and using another bug to provide infinite sticks. This was discovered by runner Andrew_the_Emu.> Due to a bug, it is possible to change certain stats about the character in the menu before entering the game, notably the number of emu kills recorded. This is referred to as “premuing”.These would be hard to implement.
gollark: Also transitive dependencies and silly people.
