Questions you always wanted to ask other members, but felt too lazy or awkward to do so.

Who downloads porn anymore? Take my method of watching porn to be duplicitous and not get caught.

-Turn the TV off, so you can hear if someone is approaching your room.
-Have headphones so you can hear the porn, but don't put them on all the way so you can still hear if someone is coming.
-Turn the volume down a little bit. Even though you have headphones, you need to be a little bit more alert of being caught.
-If possible, have the PC monitor with it's back facing the door.
-Randomly take off your headphones and listen intently for approachers.
-Keep your browser tabbed, with something normal like youtube or yahoo in the extra tab.
-While watching porn, keep your mouse cursor on the extra tab and be READY to click away if necessary.
-You might want to watch at an angle, so you can keep the corner of your eye on the door.
-When finished, clear your history, files, etc.

5 Most Common Writing Pitfalls

I, ummm, just joined this website. I didn't know this was even a problem here!

My Screenshot is Bigger Than Yours!

I don't know, I thought it was in every Zozo chipset?

Euphorian, nice animation! The style of your character is particulary interesting.

My Screenshot is Bigger Than Yours!

It's just a practice map. :o I might implement it into an actual game, which i'll probably start pretty soon.

My Screenshot is Bigger Than Yours!

Slums.

Where is the hero? He's sleeping in the abandoned car, of course!

Hmmm, ok. I'll sleep on it tonight so I can actually explain with more clarity what I mean.

Alright, but to be honest I am happy with the majority dialog as it is; aside from a few small things that need fixing (like a double negative I spotted a bit after release).
Well, ok. If you're happy with it, then you might as well keep it as is. I mean, it's probably just me nitpicking or something. I haven't actually seen anyone make notice of it yet, besides me. I'm at school right now, so I don't have access to the game. I still might try to give an example later, either way.

It seems as if the PM won't work. I guess posting it here will have to suffice.


First of all, as I said, your game is great so far. There haven't been many issues. One qualm I have is the dialogue, it seems sort of "cheesy". I'm not really sure if that's the correct term, but i'll explain. Now, I am JUST leaving the citadel area, so I don't know if the dialogue is consistent with what i've heard so far or not. Anyhow, looking back at the conversation between Slade and Shadar, it seems that they aren't natural when they speak. They seem to be too formal....or something. It's a little tough to convey what I think. They kind of try to hard, too rigid, and not very natural. Here, i'll give you an example:

Person A: "How dare you disturb my people."
People B: "Don't confront me, you fool."
Person A: "You shall pay for what you have
done."
Person B: "Prepare to perish under my
might."

Do you sort of see where I am coming from here? This isn't an excerpt for your game, but the underlying principle should still be there. Maybe if I changed it, you will see how it's different.

Person A: "You killed the people of Auburn,
and you feel as if it's all ok.
You're nothing but a cold,
heartless killer."
Person B: "Please, they deserved the death
that I gave them. This planet
has no more space for worthless
human beings."
Person A: "What this planet has no room for
is the pain, hatred, and grief
that you supply it with. I will
advenge the innocent lives that
you have taken."
Person B: "If you are stupid enough to confront
me like this, then you deserve to die.
My "fun" with the worthless inhabitants
of this planet have caused you pain. I'll
do you a favor, and end your suffering."

This seems a bit more natural. Maybe someone here can help me a little on what I mean.
Otherwise, great game so far! I look forward to playing more.
