THE SCREENSHOT TOPIC RETURNS

Posts





For the sake of free publicity (and criticism), I bring forth 2 pics.
(lower one is from battle, I removed the system thingy because its still
very much WIP)
Heh, I like it. The only two things:

- The sand/dirt tile is very bland. Try to make it stand "out" more.
- That sword is WAY too big for the character...

I think considering the graphical style of this game, it's fine or else it will overthrow the focus out of the characters. Just an imho

also Rule of cool, Big Fucking Sword~

I disagree. For Both points.

Now, I can't say for sure, but I think he's trying to emulate the metal max style (Metal Max 2 from the looks of it instead of Return!) which is... NES graphics. That would explain the funky monster and the char sets (which is hmm, edited?). Also the huge weapon regardless of character size.

it's a bit strange but that's one of the interesting style metal max got.

Also, the dirt? it's post-apocalypse most likely. Besides the bottom screen is probably the Battle HUD or something so it won't look apparent.

Regardless, I find this really interesting. Glad to see someone is also making a metal max-esque game out there.
Not gams, but I'll share some things I've been working on for the site.

Good job Ankylo~ and Kentona's almost there ;D
I love the idea of draft status for reviews.
So you'll be able to ignore PMs or entire posts?

I find that weird too, and how would it work in a discussion? What was the reason for this?
K-hos
whoa You guys are hi-chaining without me? That's just not right. :<

I am assuming ignore would just stuff users posts into hide tags. Also that is cool.

@Anklyo: Will there be a way to tell if a user is online?
@Deacon: Wow.. That is new.

Just posts right now. It's more of a hard and fast rule. When showing posts it checks to see if that user is in your ignore list, if they are, it just doesn't show their post. You can still see their posts in their history, still see their games/blogs/reviews/etc, just not any posts/comments they make on actual items. It may get more advanced in the future.

Wait a second, that can make topics like this one a mess though. Say a person who ignores you posts a screen and everyone comments on it. See? You would see the comments, but not see what they were talking about. In the end, you would end up with a mess like facebook, where people all be talking, but you will assume you are the only one in a conversation, when there is another, that the other person responds too!

EDIT: Ultimately, this can be as destructive as adding a delete post option for some people. Just consider keeping it to blocking PMs, as that would not make the fourms into a unreadable mess.

And? The point of ignore is that you don't want to see posts from a certain user. You don't have to use it. PMs already have a delete button. Anyway, this topic is for screenshots - more screenshots please.

Like this screenshot of some new buttons I added to the post editor:

If possible, I just want to add one thing : for those who enjoy insulting other people, they're going to have the time of their life : no answering, go go go then!
Oh! So it is one sided then; You can block their posts, thus will not be seen on your side then, but other people would be able to see your posts, unlike facebook. I just was saying, broken conversations because people get angry and started to make sure no one can see their posts would suck.

But, this is a post for screenshots, so here is a screen from my currant project.

In this dimensional mess, all vampires ride motorcycles and all own their own blog. Also, here is some newer walls and a neat looking floor and roof I came up for forests. Not the best, and it relies on castlevania 3 rips, but the forest I made with castlevania 1 rips sucked.
