Slime Salad

I'm excited about finally showing off some new, updated content beyond what the demo version of Ruin had to offer! You can click on any image to see a higher res version of it. <a href="http://mocbjsoftware.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/The-Omega0001.png"><img class="size-large wp-im...

I think this is a great idea. It is very similar to what I did with the Hamster Wheel, though that also included centralizing game-specific reviews, threads and additional content.

I wish I wouldn't have shut it down completely, but glad to see something similar being done in its place.

I started up a new you tube channel for my personal favorite tracks from video games. I know there is a lot of them out there already, but I wanted to do one for my own tastes. One thing that my channel will cover that most (if not all) others won't are OHRRPGCE games. I already have a track from En...

I think what you're doing is great. Graphics look good as well.

Thanks man! Yeah, someone here mentioned the harp thing years ago and I ignored it. But I totally get what they were saying now. I think the strings sound better as the harp part for sure. As for the world map music, there is a possibility I may move it to use somewhere else. I remember thinking whe...

We've done "8-bit" contests in the past. Check out the archives to see how they worked.

I wrote a couple of original pieces for The Omega years ago. I wanted to use them in Ruin but they didn't feel "right" with the changes to the new game. I ran across Anvil Studios the other day and decided to give it a shot. I loaded up my old World Map and basic Battle themes and did some...

It's funny you mention the 8-bit Contest as I was just thinking about it the other day. I still definitely want to do it at some point. I know you tried to get me to do it a year or two back and I totally flaked on the whole thing. I feel pretty certain that I can make it happen at some point this y...

I'm in the process of shrinking the outer walls and I think it is working in my favor now. Thanks for the advice!

Thanks for the feedback! I totally see what you mean about the caves appearing top-down. I will definitely working on the shading with "back and side" walls so that it will be less apparent. I actually intend to have taller front cave walls in future maps. The problem with this particular ...

Holy necro-bump! Last time I posted in this was well over a year ago! I don't intend on boring you guys with daily, minor updates on Ruin (although my blog covers EVERYTHING if that is your thing), but I do plan on sharing some of the bigger changes that come to pass. There were some things I wanted...

Thanks guys!

I read the wiki page, how damage is calculated, but still have a couple questions regarding a specific situation of mine. Let's say an enemy is weak to element A while strong to element B. If a hero attacks that enemy with an ability that deals BOTH element A and element B damage, how exactly is tha...

Hey guys, It's been awhile since I've been around and just thought I'd give an update. After I released the Ruin demo back in November 2011, I was getting ready for a wedding/etc and further production of it came to a halt. I picked it up again a week ago and have been making slow but steady progres...

Thanks for the info James! Very helpful!

Will any information be lost recovering the file this way or will it more or less be intact and ready to be compiled again?
