MAX MCGEE'S PROFILE

I CAN'T NOT MAKE GAMES.

I have enough lockerspace to hold an episode of Friends.

"We'll make a toast to absent friends and better days,
To remembering and being remembered as brave
And not as a bunch of whining jerks!

Don't lose your nerve.
Do not go straight
You must testify
(or I'm going to come to your house and punch you in the mouth)
cause CLOWNS MUST STAND."

- TW/IFS, "All The World Is A Stage Dive"
Iron Gaia
As the only human awake on board a space station controlled by an insane AI with delusions of deification, you must unravel the mystery of your own identity and discover: "What is the Iron Gaia?"

I hid some of them...only six of them weren't behind spoiler tags.

Anyway, thanks for the feedback, I was afraid I'd gone completely unnoticed. :)

Why (God Why) so many medieval fantasy games and so little of anything else?

I know that subcategories are stupid (is that post-hardcore or screamo?) but they do exist. They weren't the point of this topic, though.

I <3 winebagopunk.

BEHOLDETH! ONE METRIC BUTTLOAD OF MAGE DUEL SCREENS FOR YOUR VIEWING PLEASURE:


This is the basic premise.


A shot of the outside of the arena, following character creation.
Shows the ticket sellers area. Not a lot of business, cause of the rain.


Lord Algus' Private Viewing Balcony, presently empty. Box seats, so to speak.


One of the many shops/outfitters available to duelists in the Arena's underworks.


The game actually has a deep backstory/world building behind it, it's just that the game's action makes no effort to explore it because it's too busy concerning itself with MAGES who are DUELING.


Training area. An NPC evoker is practicing a fire spell, and behind the flames you can see an NPC illusionist practicing Mirror Image. My favorite screenshot.

Screens from Character Creation:
Character Creation has roughly four phases, illustrated below:
1. Selecting character gender and naming your character:


2. Picking character class:

3. Picking your four starting class spells:

4. And finally, picking one 'out-of-class' spell:


Screens showing Dialog Options:

Realistic Sexual Harassment System (SHS) Just kidding...

At a few places in the game, it's possible to choose your character's response, i.e. actually Roleplaying in a roleplaying game. How novel.

This is the hostile response. :)



An enemy Illusionist casts Mirror Image, splitting himself into three copies, only one of which is real. If you play an Illusionist, you can use this spell too.

Max Payne.

you can remove your own post, you know, there's a remove button.

Anyway, I dunno about considering Markie Mark a great actor, but you're right, it does look surprisingly promising. I'm a huge Max Payne fan. Then again, I can't even count any more how many shitty movies had good trailers.

I will be abseiling down a 23 floor building Wednesday

By the way, Kenton A, I just wanted to say that this is about the most badass thing ever.

What are you thinking about right now?

I got another rejection. :(

Being a writer is really hard. Even after you get your first pro sale. I thought it would be easier. :(

Why (God Why) so many medieval fantasy games and so little of anything else?

It was so cyberpunk. It had biotech enhancements (SOLDIER), robots, helicopters, industrial espionage, smartguns, lasers. It's a logical continuation of the distinctly steampunk setting of FF6. It wasn't typical cyberpunk, but it's closer to cyberpunk than dieselpunk, industrial, or anything else you want to call it.

My initial interest in FFVII was due to its resemblance to Shadowrun (SNES game/pen and paper RPG).

The Big Bang (we have survived)

That is hilarrious. I'd also love to see their reaction to it. I imagine extreme befuddlement.

What are you upset or worried about?

People like fantasy because of "
chrono trigger or final fantasy VII
"

nonononononono.

Chrono Trigger: TIME TRAVEL = SCIENCE FICTION LOL.
Final Fantasy VII is CYBERPUNK WITH MAGIC! IT HAS ROBOTS AND SPACESHIPS. WTF. WRONG.
