Slime Salad

This is great. It is missing "type b" mode, but it is really polished and cool. it manages to be both very retro and very flashy at the same time. The first version of Tetris I ever played was the one for the NES. I wish that had looked half as nice as this. I very much hope that shakeyair...

Sure! I'll bring penny rolls! >;)

The votes are in! I would like to thank everyone who participated in the Finish Your Dang Game Contest. I had a lot of fun with this, and I am glad to see that people made a lot of progress on their games. =Contestant Download Links= * Onlyoneinall - <a href="http://www.slimesalad.com/forum/vie...

Not to derail this too badly, but is there a way to plotscript a hero into a certain slot? I can't find one and it's odd that none exists. swap by position&#40;0, find hero&#40;hero&#58;Bob&#41;&#41; You could also edit your main menu and wrap your "Order" menu in a sc...

Final Fantasy 4, 5, and 6 never did it, and those were my strongest design influences. There were times in 6 where certain heroes would be required in the active party, but it was never picky about which order they were in.

So I looked at the erl files, and they are all in some sort of obfuscated binary format. I wasn't able to extract a single line of text :( I sent them to nProtect tech support again, but no word from them. However, yesterday, my girlfriend's brother tried to play an OHRRPGCE game, and his Zonealarm ...

I am very reluctant to have two different kinds of locking. I think party-group-locking and party-slot-locking make for a confusing pair... But what if I made a global bitset like "locked heroes can't be re-ordered"? ...actually that isn't much less confusing, but it would at least be a lo...

This would be a great engine update HINT HINT

Done. It is in the current nightly. Sorry for not doing this *before* you went to all that trouble, RMZ.

Yay!

Also, any confirmation on hero sprites vanishing during their "dead" frame on the 10/18/2009 nightly? Ack! I had no idea that was happening! Thank you for mentioning it. <a href="http://rpg.hamsterrepublic.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=765">Filed in bugzilla</a> As for Windows 7,...

Check the video. His name was always Garland in the text boxes, but his unit name in battle was always Morgan.

And if I win on that lottery ticket because of Phantom tactics, I'll give you a little cut :)

Regarding Garland's tanking ability: You were extremely lucky and never got hit on this level. When Garland is in the battle, it's still the front line unit whose Evade is applied. Only if that falls through does Garland take the attack. Huh. I must have been super lucky, because I never had him fa...

we are calling the next one "Ypsiliform". I want to save the Yggdrasil name for the release when Fenrir finishes Vikings of Midgard. I would say that we are only a few weeks away from a stable release. It does depend on TMC, because he really wants to add a fourth map layer before release....

I believe there are currently some sprite caching difficulties preventing that from being easy, but it could come eventually, yes.

I am simply delighted with this game. The tactics gameplay is very clean, and it uses a team-mechanic that I have not (personally) seen in any other tactics game. Moving your units around is simple, but the real depth comes from support units. By using your support units carefully, you can get your ...
