NICKAD'S PROFILE

I like to smell people :).
I have an absurd fashion of littering my game creations with unnecessary light-maps and overlays.
I am fond of RPGs and first-person shooters, and have an astounding joy for horror games.

Fuck that game. I did a whole "0"-5 damage to the third boss and the fourth was even worse. I won't name it; I don't have anything handy.

So what about horror/scary games?
author=demondestiny link=topic=2919.msg56684#msg56684 date=1232255535As well as the effects they use, they also incorporate suspense, as well as the occurrence of radio transmission static. It's pretty effective too! It basically tells you when to get scared.author=Mitsuhide_The_Vagrant link=topic=2919.msg56677#msg56677 date=1232253446author=demondestiny link=topic=2919.msg56673#msg56673 date=1232252363author=Mitsuhide_The_Vagrant link=topic=2919.msg56658#msg56658 date=1232247399
What aspects of horror games do you find actually invoke fear into either yourself or in the general public.
The atmosphere in the game is what really invokes fear. Along with the atmosphere having music that fits the scene also helps is making it look scary.
I have thought to myself before, "Is a game scarier with creepy music or just no music at all (only in certain areas, of course)?" I usually tend to think when the BGM in a game suddenly fades out, yet you still have control over the character (as in not for a cutscene), it creeps me out and makes me stop for a moment.
And, Nickad, that was some spooky shit.
It depends how you use the music really. What makes F.E.A.R. really scary are the effects they use. Blood on the walls, dark figures etc.

author=Mitsuhide_The_Vagrant link=topic=2919.msg56658#msg56658 date=1232247399I say what makes horror games, well, scary, is the lighting and background music/ambience. If the lighting is dark, it gives a sense of being alone, and that something might be dwelling there. Also, a subtle ambience may also invoke suspense, at least, that is my opinion of it.
I'm thinking about starting a horror game soon. I'm not going to give out any details, but while I was brainstorming on the project I had the idea to start this topic. So, with that said...

When I say horror games I mean any game in general that was made to be scary. Go.
Basically this type of thing.
For some reason, the arrow keys won't work in any game.

I have no idea what causes this, when I open any game, the arrow keys just do nothing.
The only keys I could get to work was alt, and F12, which just resets the game.
My keyboard works fine.
So I pretty much stuck on any RPG maker game title screen, 2000 and 2003
The only way I can close any game is to Ctrl Alt Delete.
It's kinda messing up my Nigsek bug fixing.
Does anyone know what's going on?
So far, I have absolutely no idea what is wrong. It has never happened to me.
Do the arrow keys work when you're doing anything else, or in any other program?
How about this; are there any cliches that you LIKE?
author=Feldschlacht IV link=topic=2906.msg56420#msg56420 date=1232075445I admit that I actually like the cliche romance in RPG's :-X.
Like?! Cliches?! IMPOSSIBLE.
You know, where it's really obvious that the main female role is in love with the main male role. I don't know why, but I just don't mind it. It actually keeps me engaged as to where this will go, etc, etc.
I also like idea of an evil empire (E.G, Final Fantasy VI, and how it was 'pulled off').
I also like the idea that the evil empire has advanced weapons and machinery :D.

author=Feldschlacht IV link=topic=2555.msg56106#msg56106 date=1231944200Haven't you already posted this screen before? Though, I still think it looks great. It definitely captures the atmosphere you were going for.
Screen.
Though, I personally dislike how the autotile of the pavement goes around the vents on the floor, as well as up against some of the buildings. Though, either way, it would still look great.
Edit: Fine >:(.
