THE FEATURED GAME THREAD

Wither.
whoa. Wither has flown completely under the radar here.

...unfortunately, we have met resistance in the past to featuring unknown games. Also, does RMN glorify the 8-bit??
I thought the resistance was because of crappy games and not because of unknown games?
(truly it stemmed from unknown games whose mileage will vary depending on who plays it. Some people really enjoyed those games. Other people couldn't accept the fact that other people enjoyed those games. RMN suffers as a result,)
LockeZ
I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

This is an indie games website. Anyone who complains about you featuring games because they are not well known gets their breathing license revoked.

And considering LCPANES Terminal was featured a couple months ago, I think any argument against game boy graphics is pretty much irrelevant.

The only meaningful question is whether the game is better or worse than the others you mentioned.

I think it's fine to feature an unknown game as long as it's solid or somehow novel.

Finding Eden has been getting some attention, and I'd recommend it for next feature but people flip their lids when we feature RTP games.

I don't know what's happening but when I download Finding Eden, I just get a tech demo!

Edit : ok, got it.
My suggestions are:

Set Discrepancy - because it's AMAZING. (although only a demo, so not sure how wise that is.. YET)

&

I Miss the Sunrise - Although it's technically incomplete there's more than enough quality gameplay and immersion in what's already been released so far (now up to 3 episodes) to consider it a pretty wholesome gameplay experience. Plus it'd be good to get more of the user-base waiting on the next episode's release.

IMTS is episodic, eh? We've featured episodic games in the past that were still developing new episodes. I would not be opposed to featuring IMTS now (though my preference would be to feature the full final game, of course!). Do we have an ETA on the completion date? I mean, if it is only a few months away we could probably wait, but if it is like a year or more we can feature it now, you know?

Finding Eden, Aetherion and Project Sundown all sounds like a good suggestions. I would hold off on Set Discrepancy because I know it is still in active development.
Legend of the Dragon Phalix II.
Because without a doubt there is not one game that is better than this game!

IMTS's first episode is probably longer than Wither (no offense intended to Wither, just saiyan) and the first two EPs combined make for a game probably as long, if not longer than your average RM game. I haven't even played EP3 yet (guessing it's just as long if not longer than the previous two) but I'm pretty sure you can download the whole lot as one installer if you're a newcomer to IMTS. As for completion I have no idea how long the full game is meant to be in the end. Maybe you're right about waiting until completion though.

After spending a couple hours playing it (and now I'm stuck) I'd be leaning toward also suggesting Sundown Project as a candidate.. That said, I haven't managed to get past the last part yet :x

Hey y'all.

I should be done with IMTS by next summer (5 episodes in all), so if you want to feature it I would wait for the "complete" edition. I have a decent number of subscribers providing input for now. I appreciate the consideration though!
Thanks for the info Deltree! We will take your advice and wait for the completed project.



So:
Finding Eden
Aetherion
Rubi
Legend of the Dragon Phalix II
Sundown Project


My vote goes to Aetherion. What do you guys want?
