Quick question: I know it says we may use any engine but I would like to know if I may use StoryNexus to build my game in. It was used to make Fallen London. My only concern is in the judges judging the game. They would have to have an account to play it and there are only so many actions available at a time (10, with 1 action point regenerating every 10 minutes). There wouldn't be anything to download either; as it is entirely browser-based.

It might not be an issue anyways though because it isn't in open beta yet (though it is supposed to be sometime this month).
I don't mind too much, but the time factor could become a problem. It would be hard to LP, so if you won it would probably just be a video demo.

this story nexus thing is tres fascinating! i shouldn't look into it too closely though. last thing i need is another creative ~hobby~ : /

Anyone out there practicing martial arts?

i am out of shape and i don't know kung fu : (

i know a lot about martial arts, though. i would say that i have a broad theoretical knowledge. certainly enough to find this topic fascinating. just no practical skill.

Tell me about the problems that occur if you pause. I had to defend myself once (thank God it wasn't a real fight) and I found myself to be unable to block normally, like I forgot everything :O Luckily, a well-timed nut-shot got me out of a pinch!

why would you kick someone in the gnards if it wasn't a real fight? O.o

Does it ever occur to you that, in times where you got into a fight suddenly, you forgot your knowledge of whatever martial art you were practicing? Happened to me once, and I want to know if someone ever had a similar experience.

i saw this happen to a childhood friend when i was much, much younger. taekwondo was basically his life but when he was actually being bullied by a kid like six years older than him he essentially critically failed to defend himself and got his ass kicked. it was embarassing. (even i once punched him in the solar plexus so hard he threw up, lol)

after he got beat up, his dad kicked his ass even further for failing to defend himself. in hindsight, his dad was a mean abusive drunk asshole and this isn't a particularly funny story. (good times)

Quick game page submission bulletin

i did not even realize this was not already a thing (!)

What are you thinking about right now?

i know rite it's not even grammatically correct. it should be "as many f asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisk asterisk s as you can".

Nomic, because why the hell not? [Sign-ups only, now closed]

i am against on the grounds of semantics. "Trihan will be killed and eaten" is too vague to function as a game mechanic. we need to answer the following questions first. see rule #111.

* exactly when will he be killed and eaten? and under what circumstances?
* who will he be killed by?
* who will he be eaten by?
* if he will be eaten by multiple people, how will the portions be divided?
* how will he be prepared?

and so forth. come on guys.

ADDITIONALLY, jeroen_sol's proposal #301 violates rule #201, because the first turn is legitimately Adon's. word.

What are you thinking about right now?

just saw these two sentences, i shit you not, in the same forum signature

If you are a believer of Jesus Christ, and are 100% proud of it, put this in your sig.
"Live and fight, fight until you can no more; and then, take as much f*****s with you as you can!" ~myself


a statement that no doubt jesus would agree with

The Screenshot Topic Returns

I guess lifeless wasn't the best term. I dunno. In my opinion, those tiles all look so bland and dull to me. Despite the high resolution they just look DEFAULT for back of a better word. Almost like this is a world where cartoon bratz dolls would live ...
I posted several different shots of his games and to me, they all look like they could be different areas of the same game.

they are not all, in fact, the default tiles : P if my discerning eye is correct the former is Mack and the latter two are RTP.

and i'm biased, a lot of my own gams are made using the same tiles. tiles aren't everything, and those games look reasonably distinct to me, and the comparision to 'bratz' of all things doesn't take the sting out at all, but whateva.

your stuff looks very nice, as before. i notice all your roads are diagonal: how are you handling isometric movement in 2k3? it seems like going "up one, right one, up one, right one" on that big highway would be really annoying.

if those graphics are direct rips you should share them, i've never seen a high quality set of eartbound/mother rips floating around before, it would be a cool thing for people to have access to.


oh um, CRIT icisim. that line on the lower right looks really, really weird. like where the cliff edge just becomes a line between the same shade of green and green? edit: hmm i should probably quote image



What are you thinking about? (game development edition)

grrarg. i was on track to actually finishing my cute little fantasy game in like two or three weeks maximum. now this halloweenie context comes along and now i'm tempted to set that project aside (let's be honest, indefinitely, because whenever you set anything aside there's at least some chance you never come back to it at least if you're me) to start a new "spooky scary' one for the contest.

curses! rmn why u do this to me.
