Slime Salad

*Blows off dust* Here's something on-topic. A long time ago someone (guo?) requested better minimaps, and naturally I jumped on it immediately... but never quite finished, and let it languish for a year or two. The feature is finally done and in recent nightly builds. You can pick the algorithm to g...

Looking through the recent list of games uploaded since a year ago, there are an awful lot that I overlooked! So I feel kind of bad for directing even more attention to the 2018 One-Room Contest , since those games already have infinitely more attention than all those games that got uploaded without...

Ah, so Speak and Scry are separate, and both give you advice?

A hundred sound effects? Wow, I don't know how you can use that many; nearly every attack has a unique one?

I won't actually have time to watch the livestream, unfortunately.

Sure.

The "Don't care" gender option picks randomly? I don't remember ever seeing such an option before.

Wow, there's some really cool stuff being posted here. And by my count there are 19 people entering the contest, some of them with multiple games! Based on what I've seen, I'd predict that a high proportion of people will actually turn something in by the end. It's kind of unfortunate that the Disco...

(Oh, heh, I see that guo posted here the answer to a question I just asked in the Bale thread.) I tried out Restoration of K'ab. You've got some pretty nice tiles and that first map looks great. (That is a really unique, and crazy, grass animation!) It's a good thing you have three months left, beca...

Wait, what was that about an advice hotline? Is that the Speak command? How does that work; you're reminded about what you need to do next and so forth?

Have you done any more streaming of the game on Twitch?

Oh you kid! The options to export/import textboxes were added 10 years ago, in xocolatl!

Thanks! It's fixed now. Actually I rewrote that menu.

It's codenamed Alien Squatter. You play as a homeless alien in a futuristic city. You have scrounge for food to survive and money to buy a way out of the awful neighborhood you live in. It will be really bleak and awful, but also kind of funny. This is everything we want. Hurrah! Nice to see you ba...

Oh yes, although I know what's wrong and can fix that problem, I haven't gotten around to it yet. Definitely will.

I've been reviewing all bug reports made since Etheldreme, and discovered three to five people reported Game sometimes freezing when quitting, if launched through Test Game. I filed the bug here: https://sourceforge.net/p/ohrrpgce/bugs/2033/ I still don't have any idea what's causing it. I also file...

More tech demos on CP? I wonder! Being able to extend the engine yourself with scripting would definitely be wonderful, and would make it about 10x easier to contribute. You aren't the only person to try to create some kind of utility, despite all kinds of infuriating limits. So I definitely believe...

Have you an excuse for beating up such a proud turkey? Also, a levitating rat?? I see I never addressed the discussion about frames in spriteset with a different size: my idea was to allow frames to extend beyond the edges of the sprite. So the sprite slice might be 100x100, but the image drawn to t...

Oh yes, of course remember your tech demos! They were very impressive! OHRPAL.hss still goes way beyond the OHRRPGCE's own graphics editor... In fact, I'm tempted to ask whether we could incorporate parts of it into the engine someday (would like to allow scripts to run in Custom as well). I would n...
