"Do it!" Whispers Tammytharn to Lynda, "We will wait in the Wagon for you" Then Tammytharn casts one last look of longing towards the place where Dan vanished, and then she leaves hurriedly. Rather than going directly to the wagon, she stops by the Wizard who had been unwilling ...

Racing games that you'd be better off making with the OHR. http://socksmakepeoplesexy.net/images/roadblasters_rev01.png So I have too much on my plate to enter this contest, but if I was going to make this game, here is what I would do: the ground would be divided into rows. Each row would be made ...

While Kalar talks to Moriamis, Tammytharn moves closer to Lynda and whispers in her ear; "You should let the invisible man take you to dinner! Don't ask him direct questions about our quest, just take an interest in his own story, and be as charming as possible!" What Tammytharn does not ...

After sleeping on it, Tammytharn decides that she should sell the Tome of Warforged/Golem Manual. She doesn't think she can use it, and she doubts that she will be able to sell it all in other places, since magic is forbidden in this land, so she should take the opportunity to sell it to the eager ...

So if I understand the Iron Golem Manual correctly, it provides the spells and XP needed, a +4 bonus to caster level, and a +5 bonus to Craft checks. That means Tammytharn could not use it until she reaches caster level 12, and her skill check would be a DC20 check against 2+5 crafting skill, which ...

I see no problem keeping the "2" in the actual game title, but it does seem wise to downplay it as much as possible in the greenlight page My experience with posting Bob the Hamster Dirt Dig on greenlight was definitely a skin-thickening experience. Greenlight commenters are a pretty nasty...

How did I manage to be a QuickBasic programmer for so many years, without ever actually executing the DONKEY.BAS that had been on my hard drive all that time... I think back in 1992 I must have taken one look at the filename, and made the mental connection of DONKEY = "Donkey Kong" = GORIL...

Tammytharn is surprised by the unambiguous response. She had expected the cryptic sort of vagaries that so often come from divination spells, so for a moment she is worried that the shop keeper had somehow managed to interfere with her spell just to make a sale. But her faith in Rao prevails, combi...

Just for kicks, Tammytharn asks the permission of the shopkeeper for her to cast Divination to ask Rao if she should buy the mystery liquid.

Normally she would not have even considered it, but the idea of carrying around the valuable book makes her feel rather wealthy.

Tammytharn opts to think about the sale of the tome a little longer, until she can determine what they would spend the money on if she did sell it. Feeling frustrated by how far over her head the Golem books is, she decides to spend a little time working on a simple and satisfying project. She take...

Tammytharn shakes her head. "No, I don't think I could do it. Even with the help of these instructions, I don't think that I am up to the task of making a Golem, neither in terms of spellcasting, nor in terms of ironcrafting. You saw how badly it went last time I tried to cast a spell from thi...

Actually, we already have some crude scaling (Shrink dissolve effect) but yes, rotation is still a long way off.

When I have Tammytharn searching the library for newspapers, I realize that something like modern newspapers don't exist in this world, but I am hoping that this is a post-gutenberg-press society, and that they might have some things along the lines of: <img src="https://i.imgur.com/mbZTWxZ.jpg...
