Slime Salad

There's basically two reason I don't want to extend the threads to more than a week. First, there's already a game of the month. Granted, no one really talks about a game while it's GotM (this game being a clear exception). I suppose we could just turn this into the talk about the GotM thread, but ...

I know JSH wants comments on Chapter 2, and not a reminder that I have or haven't actually played the game, so I have to apologize for being one of the offenders in this regard. I'm kind of in the same camp with the Wobbler in that I would love to play the game more seriously when it's finished, but...

First off, there's the Super Mario textbox. I don't remember where I found it in the game, but trust me it's there. I hate it when people call me a liar on slime like this, 'cause it makes me feel like I paid more attention to their game than they did. Wasn't calling you a liar. I honestly don't re...

Hey guys, I wanted to let the week come to an end before responding to the remaining comments. Now that it's here, I think it's time to inform you what will change and what won't as a result of this discussion. Note: This is a very long post, so if you haven't contributed to this discussion, you may...

Hey guys, just wanted to say thanks for choosing my game first. I was concerned after releasing it that no one would actually give it a fair chance. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea (see how I almost made a pun?), so I get that it'll be hard for a lot of you to get into it. For those who give i...

I know I haven't participated in any of these review contests, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. My stance has always been that more reviewers offer more diversity to opinions and styles, and can give both developers and players a wider understanding about what works and what doesn't in a gam...

Sounds to me like the engine could benefit from having "category" and "rank" settings for items in the event that a player would want to prioritize specific items in a certain way: Categories: -Health -Magic -Offense -Defense -Special -Type 6 -Type 7 -Type 8 (Each category could ...

I personally get annoyed with too much exposition, breaks in the fourth wall (when the characters tell the player how to play the game), and dialogue that takes the place of action. Example: "I hate you. *slugs Biff* I wish you would die!" Just show Margaret punching Biff. It's one extra f...

This one's a long-shot, but I'm wondering if there could ever be a way to connect a game to Pandora or some sort of Internet radio provider similar to what Beat Hazard does. Ever since James figured out how to hack a dictionary and import the entire English language into VocabMosaic, I've been wonde...

One of the things I plan to do for the next version of Entrepreneur: The Beginning is to create an interactive coffee and smoothie menu that allows the player to customize his own coffee or smoothie brands and name them, so when the customer requests them, the player only has to select the name from...

If you use Powerstick Man (and name him) for the Android version, make sure you remember to credit me in a file somewhere by my real name and state that it's "Used With Permission." Normally I wouldn't care if you use my characters in your games if it's just gonna circulate around the OHR ...

Haha, I did the exact same thing last night.

So, when do you guys want to get a game started? I'm gonna mess around with the single player game right now, but I'm for playing multiplayer later on if you guys want to give it a try. I'll sign onto IRC in a bit to confirm.

James, I think you may want to check the FAQs on that. I believe the PC (or original) version is different than other versions, so I doubt it. But either way, it's worth the low price. Meatballsub, I read somewhere that they've improved server support, so I don't know if we need to plan anything in ...

I'm still looking forward to the conclusion of this game. I may decide to start from the beginning just to catch all of the small things you've added into the earlier chapters. I think it would be good to play from beginning to end. I hope that Chapter 5 has a bit more to it now. I remember that bei...
