Fewer Mechanics, Better Game (Gamasutra Article)

When I had first started to have many ambitious ideas, it was instinct to cram as many degrees of gameplay into a project as I could. Too bad at that time I had never heard the saying "less is more!"

The broader that a game becomes, the more the intention and focus is lost like Rose had written. It's not surprising that a game featuring too much loses its uniqueness. I suppose the bottom line I got from this and agree with fully is that developers should remain focused on immersive depth of several mechanics instead of tacking on many shallow features.

I feel that many western RPGs are an example of how much you can get away with in terms of mechanics and gameplay while maintaining a unified feeling that you are playing a single game with a clear goal.

Wow, is that the place where you spend most of your time on the computer or do you just bring it wherever you feel like relaxing? Seems like it would hurt your back after a while otherwise.

Workstation, yes those are two external hard drives. I have another lying around somewhere as well, as my major requires I have a lot of space. You'll notice one of those reed diffusers in the upper left. They're girly and do nothing.


Small TV with the only next-gen console I can afford. There is a noisy and worn-out steam heater in the corner that still clicks on at exactly 4:30 am every morning.


When dorm rooms have limited space and kleptomaniacs lurking in the halls, you have to resort to storing all your non-perishable food in the room. It's a pain and a mess, but it also lets me keep easy track of what I need to buy at the grocery store.

BARACKY - AKA, BEST POLITICAL VIDEO EVER

This gets pretty awesome around 1:40, I was laughing and sold on this by then. I couldn't really stomach the dummy-esque heads that were used as replacements for the faces of the original actors, but overall it was good enough to avoid bringing down the rest of the video.

My gift to the community, Algxel!

This would actually save me a lot of time in testing, thanks for this!

I like how this has support for entering in multiple hero statistics at once.

Who are these new guys? [Contributors & Staff]

It's okay, looking at porn is a very normal thing to do and society should halt the demonization of it. Porn brings people together, like two flies on molasses.

Balmung Cycle Part I: The Messenger and the Heretic

It's actually a coincidence Malad. I have a fascination with mythology in general, however for this game I decided to have Norse influences as it is or at least was the popular thing to do when I began this project!

Ciel need not look any further than a position as beta tester for hire. That is what he does best.

Don't branch out man, when you try to do new things; that's when you fail!

Castle Quest Demo

Hey, I actually don't recall you making this. It looks pretty neat and I actually am drawn to the 2-color scheme!
