Are teams allowed? Or is this solo-only?

A thought about the music thing: I think that "No ripped music" ought to just mean "No music that you don't have a legal right to use" So (if I understand correctly) all of the following would be perfectly okay: * Stock music that comes with they engine * Music you wrote yourself...

Those necks are not long enough! This is a travesty! I demand this be corrected immediately!

I feel the wallowing impulse sometimes when I see a really beautiful game. What makes me feel better is to look at my oldest graphics and compare them to my newest graphics, and suddenly I feel better again :)

I am excited about Ruin. I haven't played the demo yet-- but I am excited :)

If you are ever distributing a game that requires .dll files, <a href="http://www.dependencywalker.com/">Dependency Walker</a> is a great tool. You load an exe file into it, and it will tell you every .dll file that it uses. Naturally you ignore that standard Windows ones, but all the rest...

You could make a big map of the river, and write a script that forces the hero to walk south constantly, and checks keypresses for movement from left to right. You could use "A" tiles on the passability screen to mark the obstacles that you want to avoid, and the script could use the readp...

This is very interesting-- although even with the explicit example, creating a team seems like a daunting task.

Bob's gigantic floppy snozz makes me laugh every time I see it.

An endless loop of textbox jumps would cause your game to freeze up. If this is an endless loop of textboxes, then it is not an engine bug, it is a bug in your game. if you describe in more detail how the boxes chain together maybe we can suggest a way to get the effect you want without the endless ...

Actually, in terms of floor area, that could be over 50 times more than a Dyson Shell/Sphere . If we suppose that that whole thing is a single mudane office 'tower' that's 4 metres from floor to floor, then the potential floor area, ignoring the Moon and inside of the Earth, is ~26 billion times th...

When I make slime avatars, I start with this template: http://hamsterrepublic.com/tmp/slime-template.svg The program I use to edit them is InkScape from http://inkscape.org/ (Windows installer is here: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/inkscape/Inkscape-0.48.2-1.exe ) When it is finished, you have to...

Although Los Angeles is way too far for me to travel to any of these places, I really like the idea of a Meetup (perhaps a game-making-party)

The only way to do multiple currencies (without scripting your own shops) is to use items as the currency. Items can be bought and sold by trading them for various amounts of your currency items. The disadvantage to this method is that enemies can only drop one item, so you would have to script the ...
