Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest. :| I really enjoyed Final Fantasy Mystic Quest. I think people were just put off by comparing it to Final Fantasy 4 and 6. FFMQ has a lot more in common with Romancing Saga 1 than it does with any Final Fantasy. Also, the battle system is extremely close to what appeare...

Eep! When I read that the first time I thought it said "July 1st"

I just want to ask. Why is everyone putting up teasers of their 8-bit games on the forum? Isn't the point of a compition to hide ones work from an opponent so as to dicourage said opponent from seeing the work and then going and trying to make something better because he/she knows what he/she has t...

I'm not going to hype my 8-bit contest game with screenshots, no, it is far too secret. I'm going to hype it with this plotscripting code! script, special turtle settings, sl, begin set move speed(sl, 1) set ai(sl, @turtle ai) set exbit(sl, bit:noanim,...

One of my vary favorite authors too! He occupies a discordantly large portion of my bookshelf space. I just picked up a copy of "The Science of Discworld"

That looks really cool!

Yep :) I used invisible slices as metadata in Crypt of Baconthulhu quite extensively. It works great. Real arrays will be better, but until the become available, hidden slices are the best way to do structured data storage. Much better than read/write global. As for the inventory access, I just need...

For what it's worth, Ronin, I think your hero sprites are pretty good. They are blockey of course, but that is okay for an 8-bit game. And I think their posture actually reminds me of old-fashioned cartoon characters (Steamboat Willy, Bosco, and the like.) I especially like the stepping frame for th...

Oh my gosh! There is so much awesome on that page that I thought my head would explode!

I think my favorite is Seasonal Spectre, but I love so many of them!

Sadly I lost a ton of my old archive of RPG files. I remember some of those names, but the only one on your list that I still have a copy of is <a href="http://hamsterrepublic.com/tmp/rpgfiles/Edo.zip">Edo</a>, and I am not sure if that is the newest version or not.

Congratulations!

Is it just me, or is his hand already in keyboarding position?

You make a lot of good arguments against this.

And when I think about why I like the idea, I realize what I probably actually want is game icons.

...But I don't even support that in the rpg-file-browser in the OHR.

Yep. I know, but I more meant <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_noir">noir</a>. Obviously it isn't, but the lighting puts me in mind of that.

-> Mix up the stars. James's games should obviously have miniature Bob the Hamsters. Surlaw should have surlaw heads. RMZ.. Triangles. Or have the game authors be able to upload their own mini graphics for the stars, and have SS use those mini graphics. It'd make things a bit more interesting at le...
