spell that reduces encounter rate

I'm working on an update for Dreg Sector that addresses some of the community's complaints, but I need some help. I want to make a spell that disables random encounters for certain number of steps. I've found the "suspend random enemies" command, but I'm not quite sure how to create a loop...

I posted a glorious pic over at the Hamster Burrow.

I might've gotten farther, but my girlfriend locked herself out of the house and distracted me by frantically pounding on the door just as things were getting especially hectic in the game.

Wow! What are the changes in the new version? I made it so the same mode instantly restarts after you die. This makes it so you can quickly replay the same mode over and over again. Unfortunately, I just found an irritating bug. It happens if you interact with 2 NPCs at the same time, for instance ...

It's times like these that make me feel like I can't do squat because of how much more awesome someone is at graphics than me. AKA my life in a nutshell. Don't worry about it. Great graphic artists never seem to finish games anyway. So as long as you complete a project and give it some polish, you'...

Re: Hamster Burrow high score challenge #1!

2. One entry per...entrant. Submit your best score the first time. This is a bad rule! I've run lots of scoring competitions for various games, and here's the best way way to do it in my opinion. Give everyone a deadline (2 weeks is good) and let them submit new scores as many times as they want. T...

Amazing Super Blue Ball Game: 5) The right balance of fun and infuriating. I love the music. Jumpman: 4) Great controls but the difficulty feels very uneven. It's too easy and then gets suddenly impossibly hard around level 5. Questicle: 2) Works likes it's supposed to, but there isn't much to it. D...

I just played Questicle too. Fun, but I beat it too quickly. It only took me about 6 tries to defeat the dragon.

I encountered the same bug that some others seem to have. If you play for a certain period of time, you eventually get a script error.

I'm alleging Level 3 in all the categories. Under 6400 pixels, one button, one set of walkabouts.
Holy crap! This game is hard! Great work! The controls feels very smooth.

I'm at level 5.

I used the copy of game.exe included in the download, and I was able to trade forever. Hmm. I'm not sure how this is possible. There has got to be some sort of bug I am overlooking. The only unlimited items in the trading shops are the ones that are most expensive on that planet and you don't want ...

TMC: Great scores! I'll need get serious about playing so I can snatch my rankings back. EDIT: I just realised that Dreg Sector and Woryurs of Woberyun use Zenzizenzic. Is there any reason you're not using Alectormancy? I don't use Alectormancy because I'm still working on Dreg Sector which was star...

I'm fairly certain the version of the game I played gave the shops unlimited stock... Opps. The unlimited stock appears to be a bug in nightlies. I wish you guys would've used the version of game.exe that came in the zip file. I think you would find the whole game to be much more balanced. Crap. Th...
