EDDIE'S PROFILE

Greetings,

If you've been within a small radius of my posts recently you've probably have noticed bitching and whinging about exams.

Good news, they're gone June 10th and I can make games again.

What do I want to do then?
> Here's my idea.

I have mentioned time and time again that a videogame of The Day of the Triffids (wiki) would be absolutely fantastic if realised as a roleplay game.

This post functions as an advertisment to those who would be willing to get involved with the project - if you've read the novel or you even if you like science-fiction horror get in touch.

Contact me by email or MSN Messenger: zeepop AT gmail.com or simply reply to this topic.

I would love it if there are other people who would like to get involved. A brief warning though - I would be hesitant to jump in and make this game in RPG Maker. With a bit of extended planning this could be something a lot more.

Cheers,

-Ed

Stephen fucKing wins hands down.

Also of mention are (with related novels):

J.D. Salinger - The Catcher in the Rye
Mark Haddon - The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time
John Wyndham - The Day of the Triffids (If you want to make an RM game of this with me PM ME NOW)
Andy McNab - This isn't literary excellence in any way at all but its gripping stuff. Bravo Two Zero was amazing - there are other accounts but none tell it like McNab.
Gerald Durrel - My Family and Other Animals
Spike Milligan - Adolf Hitler: My Part in his Downfall (Fucking hilarious)

When I was younger I used to be into books like the Redwall Series (Brian Jaques) and the usual wizardry guff Harry Potter. I rate Philip Pullman as a kid's writer as well but I don't think it has such a good feel-good factor that Harry Potter does. His Dark Materials has some excellent imagery though as in I can still remember photographically what I imagined when I read through the trilogy the first time.

Also, well done kenton for making the first top ten topic that interests me beyond the realms of conversational sarcasm.

poor and really loved (since that's the aim in life right, to be happy?)


Would you rather:

A) Play hopscotch with WIP
B) Play bball with kentona

They just keep innovating. I will probably buy a Wii eventually but for the meantime my priorities are totally PS3 and PC gaming.

You a Stones fan?
