One last screenshot before I upload this thing tomorrow... http://i55.tinypic.com/iqke40.png ...and this time it's a backdrop! Because there's quite a few of them in the movie, it's not all "NPCs on a map" type scenes. Who are those guys? Well, you'll only get to actually see one of them, ...

My fangame-contest entry didn't even get mentioned in the article. XD Of course, all I got done for it was some graphics (which were in... Hamsterspeak #48 I think?), and I never really made an "official" this-is-the-game-I'm-making announcement for it, so that's not really too much of a s...

"Stupid Battle Gimmicks" was great, as usual. I hadn't even thought of doing some of those--like counterattacking only when alone, or giving specific elements to each hero's attacks so enemies will only counter a certain hero's attacks. And I completely forgot to make those extra video gam...

Allons-y
Alot
Anaconda
Apatosaurus
Apocalypse
Arrrr!

Bumblewheat?? That is one ridiculous name.

(And of course, the white 20x20 square isn't there in the actual movie-game... that's where the main character goes, and I'm not revealing who that is this early.)

http://i54.tinypic.com/311uvz8.png ...yes, that is a Mouse Jesus. Is he actually important to this thing's plot, or just a one-shot character who shows up for a few seconds in the intro? Find out on June 18th! ...actually, it'll most likely be June 17th. There's no way I'm going to be able to uploa...

I think I finally got a movie-game idea that I won't lose interest in before it's even halfway done. Right now I've got the first scene of the intro part done, and it's just about 50 seconds long. Nowhere near the 2 minute mark just yet, but hey, at least I'm past the "make graphics and a vague...

I'm guessing the computer has an older version of DirectX that isn't quite working with the OHR, or something like that--when I first tried it, it would run (and the options menu did indeed show up, so I know it was at least trying to use gfx_directx), but no graphics ever showed up, only blank blac...

It's running Windows XP (which is probably part of the problem, I don't think XP was really intended to run on a computer this slow.) Apparently the specific version of it is Windows XP Home Edition, version 2002, service pack 2. According to the computer-info box I can get to from Control Panel, it...

Does anything ever happen after "WE SHALL BE AS DOGS?" If so, I missed it--I'm on my dad's old computer right now (runs OHR painfully slow) and I didn't want to sit and listen to the same song repeat again and again any longer after the first 10-15 minutes of nothing different happening. A...

Recently I've been playtesting through the game again and fixing bugs here and there that I missed before, or that were introduced by changes I made in the more recent versions (such as the one in Wrongside's hotel that made Señor Rialgo get caught on the TV when staying in the room, instead of goin...

Plan out your game on paper before you even think about putting content into OHR. Write out the script and revise that until you're happy with it, then just work on hammering it all out in the editor. Writing out a full script before even starting on the game?? Wow. For me, trying to do that would ...

(How on earth does Bug beat Dark, anyway) More like "How on earth is Dark completely immune to Psychic attacks?" ...of course, the answer to both questions is that Dark is a throwaway type added in for no reason other than to balance out how overpowered Psychic-types were in Red/Blue/Yell...

Allons-y, Allosaurus/Apatosaurus, Acronym, Anachronism, Aardvark, Abobo, and Arrgh are probably my favorites of the suggestions so far. Apocalypse could work too (but then you'd have to release it on Dec. 21st 2012... XD) To add to that list... Alligator, Anaconda, Arrrr! (like a pirate), and Antidi...

Screenie of Intro ♥ A bit of advice: you probably shouldn't upload your screenshots as BMP files. In addition to being really big files (and so taking a long time to load), a lot of sites tend to turn BMPs into JPEGs in the process of uploading, which adds a lot of compression without rea...
