2015 "Official" Misao Predictions/Discussion Thread

Thanks Cash, since I don't Game Make that part of the site and it's workings are a mystery.

2015 "Official" Misao Predictions/Discussion Thread

I don't know about this year...The only game that actually stands out for me is World's Dawn (as a demo, of course), though this game is not eligible for nomination...
Yeah, the download for World's Dawn was added in 2014 but modified in 2015, and the system only detects downloads that were added in the year that the Misaos takes place.


It wasn't modified, it was expanded, one of the three available seasons were added this year, it's actually had more than half of it completed in 2015 (tweaking and polishing Summer, all of Autumn and part of Winter as well as the new look due to successful KS campaign) and should be eligible for best demo because of it.

That's not the way the system recognises games though. I just hope Sagitar doesn't finish it on Dec 31st as he's planning that way it will slip over into 2016 for a completed game nomination.

arrghh, sorry double post. Haven't done one of those in a while.

I only have 2 nominations so far (I don't play games):


Best Game Title Wheels and the Leg Girl!
Best Graphics & Artwork Champs of the Bocca


I'm with you on the Game title, but only because I can't nominate

Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass

Let's work on your game descriptions!

How about something like this

Aquisginia was once a utopia, but that was long ago. Now the enormous city is overseen by the Ten Nobles, the ten key figures of the Noble Organisation. Possessing powers beyond the abilities of normal humans the Nobles keep the city and all of its diverse inhabitants safe and secure.

However deep below ground and far away from the watchful eyes of the Nobles a new civilisation is being created by a group of dark mages. Seeking a new utopia fashioned in their own image, they will do whatever it takes to bring their dreams to life.

I wasn't sure how dictatorial the Nobels are so I left that clear, but you could include something like 'Using a strict set of rules the Nobles keep the city...'. Or if you wanted them to be a little more subtle, '...diverse inhabitants safe, secure and complacent.'

We're Back!

Oh, getting rid of me is quite difficult. :)

Hence, weekly backup.

...why am I in this community again?
You'd miss us, otherwise.


There are days when that is debatable. Actually it's debatable every day, its just most days it's a quick debate and a win for the affirming team.

CustomCode Review

No problem, and I did dither a little between 2.5 and 3, but I think that was due to my reaction to what happened in the throne room, it's a strong one for me, so I had to try and be a little more impartial and see it as others would.

I'm glad you can take away learning points from this, that's one of the reasons I write them. You are most welcome.

Let's work on your game descriptions!

Actually it does matter because if the description has a logical flaw then it will turn players off the game.

Also, given the information provided the description is now wrong, since it's not the world that has a fierce will to survive. It's not sentient or aware which is the impression that sentence gives, and is actually a bit of a drawcard, the idea of the world as a character in its own right.

So, knowing that the description needs to be reworded without revealing the infomation that the dev considers a spoiler.

Something like this

This is a story.
A story about a dying world.

Fragmentia.

The world of Fragmentia is dying, but even as it fades it is somehow replenished, duplicates portions of other worlds appear and are incorporated into it, oceans, sky, land and even living creatures. But this is only a temporary measure, like trying to implant one flesh in to another, rejection is bound to happen and death is approaching.

Against the odds, the duplicated people of Fragmentia battle to avert their fate, even though they are only reproductions with no memories of their true selves. They may not be real, but their dying world is, and they will do anything to save it.

We're Back!

Progress, yay!
