Topic: Keeping a game interesting with just one hero
Replies: 4

People like to be powerful. When you're dealing with one hero, one of the best ways to keep the player involved is to let them control how their abilities progress, and to have some combinations that would be crazy overpowered in a party with more people. Feenicks' Halloween game had two characters,...

Harvey isn't even sure what happened. There was a bright flash and it must've looked amazingly cool but the invisible man was too close to get to appreciate it. He dusts himself off, becoming aware of the fact that his equipment is missing. "Hehe.. musta knocked it clean off. Good thing my clo...

Yi

Yi is an exploration of scene transition effects inspired by this thread right here. Most of 'em are too slow to put in an actual game and even if you did, they abuse the master palette in ways that don't make that too advisable. Maybe doesn't deserve its own entry, but the OHR Screensaver page was ...

It's also pretty cool to do it to your tilesets, makes for some easy poison style effects. It would be *AMAZING* to do the screengrabs though. The only feature I think I would want more is the ability to enter like.. Pixel X-Y coordinates of a sprite and return the 0-15 color value from the palette,...

Re: Testing interest in another D&D game(After Castle Am

I know we are in what appears to be a final boss battle in the current Castle Amber D&D game. I was wondering if there is anyone out there interested in a new campaign after it wraps up. (I have absolutely no plans to start before Spoonweaver declares that thread to be complete) Yeah, I'd proba...
