What's in this Chest? - Mystery and Randomness in Lily slashphoenix 05/14/2013 10:24 PM Hi! I've been working hard on Lily (as well as other semi-important stuff like organizing my resume, my portfolio website and doing the job hunt thing) and wanted to make a little blog post about the game design!

Near perfect! kukenstragames 05/11/2013 01:01 PM The five star reveiw that this game received was what drew me here originally; it's the first five star game i've played on rmn! I usually tend to play unrated games so that they can have a star rating, but after reading Rixel96's reveiw of "no-one has to die", i just had to see if it really lived-up to his very kind words. In short, it does! However, i do not agree with the five star rating! I hate to be a downer, but that's the way I feel. Don't get me wrong, it's a great game! That's why i'm giving it the well-earned rating of... 4.5! But i just don't think it's perfect enough for those whole five stars! Let me tell you why...

RMN needs your help (again)! kentona 05/03/2013 09:45 PM It runs us $150/month USD to host RMN. I do get some ad revenue, but that doesn't cover the whole bill, so naturally we rely on donations to sustain ourselves. Sadly, our server fund is drying up.
