Try inventing a Pokemon based on the Velvet Worm, Cookie Cutter Fish or Raccoon Dog, I double dare you. :P

Just for the heck of it:

Good job, VelvetWorm. Now we have to make Pokemon: Lovecraft Lilac.

What the heck, this is amazing! The editor looks super intuitive, and the graphics are intense.

a) It depends on how it feels when you play. I would prefer that an action RPG be implemented on iOS because that is more in par with the "casual gamer" audience of the iOS market, but it depends on how well it controls. I can imagine some sort of swiping motion for attacks in certain directions. I'd say it depends on how easy it is for the player to use each system.

b) I think that you can do a basic tileset from open source stuff, but I think that professional developers would seek their own art. The thing about a run-time-package graphics set coming packed with the engine would mean that you have to differentiate between including all that graphical content in a game, and not using this graphics pack. I don't know how big the issue of "space" is on portable devices, but I reckon it will be a bigger problem than on the PC.

c) Yes pleeeeeease (pick me, pick me ^_^)

d) Yes. Oh, you actually mean on the iPad? Wow, that's cool.

Keep us updated, for sure. I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in something like this.

To extend pianotm's post, I played the card game on FFIX almost more than anything else in the game. I guess I'm that type of guy.

Seriously! It was remake of the Wrath of Kahn...literally ass-backwards!

Show

Then Kahn's magic blood brings Kirk back from the dead.

I haven't even watched the original Star Trek series or any of the old movies, so I can't judge from a fan's perspective, but judging from the perspective of film, it was an exciting movie with visual spectacle that kept my eyes peeled from start to finish. It didn't step it up from the reboot Star Trek, so it felt like, "been-there-done-that" but Cumberbatch was fantastic in it, and it had cool stuff crashing into other cool stuff, which I must admit I'm a sucker for. You could do a lot worse with a reboot of an old series than what happened here. A lot worse.

Like Blade Runner 2 worse. Have you seen Ridley Scott's The Counselor that he released this year? Even when he's given an award-winning novelist to be screenwriter for his much-hyped film, he manages to botch it up entirely with a total lack of suspense and thrills... in a thriller. Maybe I'm just a big fan of Blade Runner because it's #16 on my list of top films and I don't want to see it destroyed, but I was hoping that if Ridley Scott would want to sequel up his old classic, then he'd do it when he's not on a losing streak. It's uncanny, and that's speaking from a person who loves film and wants to see hyped things like this succeed to their biggest potential. I'm a dreamer, what can I say?

So let me get this straight - is the current downloadable version created in 4 hours? Because if so, I have the "curiosity" to play it, as InfectionFiles says. I really want to see what you've made in 4 hours, no lie! If this isn't the 4 hour version... "oh well", as I'd say.
