Pom Gets Wi-Fi
Some late replies...School's just started for me so yeah
@Wolf-Rabid: I appreciate your concern for me and you clearly mean well :> However, I think Mawk and others who responded were right that it's important that I get criticism--While I've gotten some less-than-helpful comments, I've also gotten a decent amount of constructive feedback from the users here. I learned a lot from posting my work on RMN and will do so again in the future :>
will play this later omg

author=kentonaSorry to disappoint, but my next game is going to be different from this one in almost every imaginable way. I think having one game go viral is enough!author=mawkIf a dog game can bring RMN to its knees, a cat game would cause it to explode.author=PepsiOtakunow we're talking
Cat game next plz
Also, a cat game is the next logical step. get on it.
author=calunioDOWNLOADEDauthor=PepsiOtakuI already made that, but with bunnies.
Expanding on my idea: kitty hell. At one point you must to make your way through a sea of cats!!
will play this later omg
author=TentarafooI wasn't planning for it to look like that, but it fit how Pom calls him "poopy head" all the time so I figured it was ok to leave it inauthor=Isasakura:|
When I'm Battling Shibe I Can't Do "Sh*t" Attack.....Can You Please Help Me..
The "Shit" you see is just Shibe's name cut off, lol. No idea if that was intentional though.
author=porkerion1I am sorry but I'm having extreme difficulty understanding what you're trying to say
you gotta need some button to skip the battles or in the final the bad ending is kill shibe and keep the wifi and the good ending is stay in the dog heaven with shibe its only my opinion
author=matuWhat error message are you getting?
i cant play it because i am having trouble the game wont let me it gives a error D:
author=pokechi121You're not, don't worry! I was really surprised by how many people recognized it.
I really hope I'm not the only one who understood the Funyarinpa reference...
Windows XP(?) credits crash
author=Archeia_Nessiah
Problem is that Rm2k3 has a random chance of not working on newer OSes. It's technically...unsupported by now unless it's updated like RM2k Value.
Oh...so...is there nothing I can really do to fix it?
author=Addit
I think it has something to do with the “video playback” option, as I’ve also had the same problem with one my games while running a .AVI file when I had to switch from using XP to Windows 7 after upgrading my computer a year back. In the end, I just had to upgrade my video drivers and it fixed the problem.
You could also just use pictures to post the credits information while playing the ending BGM in the background on another map and this will also solve the problem.
Hm...it's not really practical to make everyone playing the game update their video drivers, though.
Using pictures instead is a great idea! This sounds awful and lazy, but to be honest, I'm so done with my own game right now that I can't muster up the motivation to go back in and change the credits. After all, at worst people will just not see the credits. But, lesson learned.

@calunio: Actually, I lumped you two together because you both said that popular doesn't equal good. I realized after posting that my response to Corfaisus was tacked onto it as well, but you commented on it before I could edit it. My bad.
Uh...and for the record, "If you don't like it, I dare you to better" wasn't what I was trying to say either. I'm not looking for an archnemesis here. Try #3: "The world is unfair, don't let it get you down."
I'm glad you liked the game, though! I'm genuinely surprised that you played it, so thanks.

@Soyari, Kiss, TheMoonDust, wildwes, Alex19009, FruitKat, Jude, and everyone else who said nice things:
Thanks, I'm glad you guys liked it!
@Archeia_Nessiah: Ahh I'm happy you liked the pixel art!! And I apologize for making such a dum shibe
@Corfaisus and calunio: Truth. Bad things get popular, good things get overlooked, and it's unfair but that's life. What I was trying to say was something more along the lines of, "It's only human to be annoyed at me, but that's not going to help anything." Even if you don't have enough luck to make a game more popular than mine, I still stand by my original statement that being fired up by your anger and doing your best is more productive than cursing the world and playing emo music.

author=ArandomgamemakerIt's funny because the general reactions to Pewdie playing my game on RMN and on Tumblr are polar opposites. On Tumblr, I'm getting messages like "This is so popular that Pewdie played this?! I'm so sorry :("
You are very lucky that Pewdiepie decided to play this game. I'm happy for you ^-^
author=GironI'm glad you liked the game! Actually, if I'm not mistaken, the timer does stop when dialogue such as a Yo Mama joke is up.
Oh,if i could add something is,it was a shame not being able to take the time to read dialogues in battle since you have to keep track of the timer a lot,maybe if you prepare a similar battle interface in the future you could stop the gauge from charging while the dialogue is up? and maybe also the foe's life gauge (maybe it's there but i don't think i've seen it x_x"). As i said before though,enjoyed playing it a lot!
author=CorfaisusDidn't see this before it got edited, but I think I can guess the gist of it
Post edited out on account of waambulance.
It's natural to be unhappy when something you don't like becomes popular, especially when you feel that better things ought to be receiving recognition instead. When I remember that Angry Birds is getting a movie while the underappreciated game Ghost Trick sold so poorly that its planned sequel was never made, I want to die.
So I understand if you resent me and I can't blame you for it. However, rather than wasting your energy on hate, you should use it to make a game so mind-bogglingly good that everyone forgets about my game.
If I'm wrong and that post was actually something totally unrelated like "I love Kidz Bop," please disregard what I just said
author=TentarafooThanks for sticking up for me! You're right that I'm just as bewildered about this whole fiasco as everyone else. This isn't really what I wanted...It's like becoming famous for having a disease named after you
However, I don't think this game's popularity is gonna go to Me Patra's head... the success is probably just as puzzling to Me Patra! Though I think this can only help the community so I'm not sure where the reactions are coming from that are like "bleh, this game's getting attention... WHY THIS GAME? Why not some other one?".
author=TentarafooOh no! I'm sorry you got trapped, that's a mistake resulting from my own carelessness :(
I was trying to cross the bridge after the sakura trees and then accidentally got stuck in the sky with Shibe.
Me Patra, seems that the name "POM" looks like "Porn" when typed normally... so everyone I've tried to tell the game about... uh... thinks I typed Porn Gets Wi-Fi. :(
Also, yeah, I'm aware of that :c I hope the misunderstandings caused by this were not too awkward.

author=shadowbox
I made an account specifically to react to this- yes. just yes. adorable sprites and candy colors and a rude protagonist and a dumb shiba. please...please tell me you're planning on making a sequel? something? I want more :c
author=Rivaille
Made an account just to say how adorable this was, I loved the sprites and the storyline was so original. Rare to find a game like this, I hope you're planning on making a sequel or something <3 just played it and got both endings along with any choice differences.~
I'm glad you liked it! I'm busy working on a totally different project right now--I might make a sequel in the future, but I can't promise anything.
author=MonaDaGamer
help. I can't use the controls on this game. :( I want to play this game so bad.
Are the arrows keys and such not working? Originally I thought the best way to fix it was to just restart the computer, but according to someone who sounds like they know what they're talking about:
"That problem happens with RPG Maker games because something seems to be interfering with the game, especially if you are using a laptop computer. To fix this, unplug everything (especially joystick and Bluetooth Adapters). Go to ‘Devices and Printers’ in the Control Panel. If you see something called ‘HID-Compliant Game Controller,’ right-click that icon and click ‘Remove.’ Be careful not to reconnect a physical controller after doing this fix, or your computer may crash! Restart the computer before reconnecting anything."
Windows XP(?) credits crash
It's a little reassuring that it's not just my game that occasionally crashes for no apparent reason...
It depends on the person. Some people are getting the error message "no such interface supported," while others don't get any message before the screen turns black. In a few cases, the audio from the video successfully played, but the screen stayed the same as though there was no video.
I thought for a while that the cause was a missing .dll file on Windows XP computers. But after a Windows 7 user also encountered the error and I found out that I myself don't have the supposedly missing file, I'm not so sure that's it anymore.

author=emeraldanimeI think it might be! :< I'm not sure why the game would crash the second it's opened...
I can't play the game... Whenever I open it, it crashesD: Is it just my laptop?
author=RikiiDang it, looks like I'm back to square one...People's computers really do not like those credits!
No, i use Win7 and it crashes at the end.
author=BirdyroseWhoa, so even if you follow the hint, you always end up with Pom killing Shibe anyways?! If you manage to wait all the way until the end of Shibe's speech, does Pom just automatically attack him?
I really enjoyed this game, it's awesome!!
Nevertheless, I wish I could see the alternative ending, I've been trying many times, and checked out the hint you gave, but still, I get the same ending. Anyway, this game is...Damn it, so COOL!

author=AveeAW I'm not sure how good it is for the community to have the website dragged down to snail's pace for a few hours but I'm glad you think so! That it's good for the community, I mean. I'll do my best to improve and make less obnoxious things--Good luck on your future endeavors, too :>
I'm all for having this type of game hosted here, you know.
A successful game attracts newcomers to RMN and raises their opinion about the quality of other games they can found here. Simply put, your game is good for my game and for the community.
This is a first project for you, so I wish you much improvement and plenty of fun on making future ones.
@amderrsom: Whoot Persona fans! Yeah, Yaoi-hands is not my tumblr url. I made it up because it seems like the kind of url that Pom would choose. Thanks for all the praise~
author=nightowl1502Yes, I noticed
pewdie played this :D
Pom Gets Wi-Fi
author=AveeTo be fair, the game had a solid 7,000 notes (roughly the first 3,000 downloads here) on Tumblr the day it was released (8/13).
It is safe to say that the majority of the first 13000+ downloads are due to Pewdiepie's popularity.
As a consequence, the game was eventually noticed by Pewdiepie. Pewdiepie uploaded his video on the 14th. But yes, past the first 4,000 or so downloads it's obvious that most of this is his fault.
Tangential aside - Very Retrouvaille was also mostly promoted on Tumblr by its creator.
author=AveeThank god! Looks like edchuy's prediction about Gangnam Style/Harlem shake will be averted.
What's sad about this is that the hype and attention will most probably die as fast as it came to.
I'm still sorry I trapped you in the stairs, by the way.
author=amderrsomThis is a common problem in RPGMaker games. Restarting the computer normally fixes it!
theres something wrong with my game,after i finished the game for the first time (bad ending) i restarted it,and after i got the quest for photos pom got stuck going up,like,it doesnt matter what i did,she still was going up like i was holding the arrow key,but i wasnt! and even when i restarted the game it still was happening.
