Advertising, sigh. Look, you're targeting something where if 2% of people who saw your banner click on it you're doing good. 5% is a miracle. So... It is what it is. I think you need to really get to the crux of your message FIRST. Difficult to fat…

I mostly ask because it's good to show your game to as many people as possible to get feedback, I know you may feel: "omg it's not done yet" "omg it's not as good as it should be so people will hate it and i'll never get another chance" "omg progra…

Would you mind putting up a prototype? :) Have you thrown it at people much? Is it a twin stick shooter? Completely to-down? Isometric? :) Also, welcome to MGSA! :D

We used Daikon Forge for Dead Run, that's pretty good. And for Landshark I locked some sprites in front of the camera - that's also a pretty good option, with Font material. The other day I noticed that's how Unreal does their interface too, it see…

Yeah I had the same kind of comments when I first spoke with Travis, the 3Dness isn't really being exploited here. Descent had these moments when opponents dropped from above like BATMAN and that was pant shanting, and that was facilitated by the le…

Didn't know this page dropped out of sticky, just thought I'd remind myself that I want to controller-friendlify Landshark Missile Attack and make it a better spectator sport than it is already and submit for Friendship Arcade :)

Clicked on your link and: Sorry, the page you were looking for in this blog does not exist.

Congrats congrats congrats! :D

Heyyy! Welcome! :D Like mentioned, we have those meetups. Every month, on the second Tuesday of every month. If you need directions just shout, but it's basically on William Nicol closer to the N1. Your game looks pretty good! There's a bit of con…

I think they came from the BUC rules: Rule One: Grow at least three extra legs. You won’t need them, but it keeps the crowds amused. :)
-
Oh I don't disagree with that, but that's only a part of it. I mentioned in my one point that being a card game that it'll be especially harder to check out, compared to dice and a few pieces for a board. Because I post on BoardGameGeek, I see that …

Hey everybody :) So it's come time to wonder if I should keep going with this or shelve it. I'd like to hear your opinons on this if - if you haven't bothered looking, why not? Etc? Some +s and -s so far: + I've received really good positive feed…

May 14 - Massive update! :D All playtesters still welcome! :D Summary: Cartel is a card game with: 1. Isometric, stackable city-building mechanics, like SimCity! 2. Area control and simple territorial battles. 3. A bit of hidden information and tr…

Which camera? Some kind of DSLR? More fancy? Was it a robot? :O

PICS?

So much imagery. Need moar gameplay. I worry for the day you show us gameplay and we give meaningless feedback cos it's too late to change something you put so much work in/got attached to. The point of showing people is so you can improve things :)
-
Don't get caught up trying to make something "perfect" - or at least "perfect for a first showing" - as long as you have something that's different from other things, SHOW IT! I swear putting up something dead ugly with no animation now and some me…

Where's the dice. WHERE'S THE DICE.

Ohhhh just remembered it was Hitchhiker's Guide thing :)

Wow, Brockian ultra cricket is a real thing: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=brockian ultra cricket I wanted Diceball. Then saw that name's already been used many times :P Damn I hate cricket so much I may just have to do this Crick…

Oh the humanity. Enjoy, Capetonians!

OH Saffa, I thought you meant SAFA. South African Football Association. Thought I was missing a joke somewhere.
-
Well, if nothing else making a game for the value of this tweet might be good: "I made this Jesus game for #FuckThisJam: Linklinklink" Hmmmmm :) Jesus Dice Soccer in Barbieland on a Horse. Done!
-
Congrats congrats! You deserve it! :D
-
I know! I was thinking exactly that - a game about DICE. OMG DICE. Ooooh ooh, a SPORTS GAME WITH DICE. Kill me now :)
-
Congrats to everyone! :D Arctic Antics did super well! You're set for a release already ;) Lair MD was amazing to take its well deserved first place in Graphics for Jam :D Yojimbrawl is also well on its way! Very awesome :) Overall we did super …
-
Thanks for the input @dislekcia! :D Grenades sound pretty cool, definitely something I can try, initially I didn't wanna give humans splash damage because I didn't want them to kill themselves by the buckets (, but I can certainly see the appeal th…
-
I'm really curious as to what the best and easiest way to get analytics would be from our indie perspective. Heck, especially er my perspective... With next to no experience in coding outside of Unity, Gamemaker, Flash AS2, etc. Is it just plain...…
-
Thanks for the input! :D I wanna ask, did you ever make use of the double tap aerial dodge? Did you do it in bullet time? Out of bullet time? I utterly agree on many of your points and they're things I do need to solve. The lack of a need to dive …
-
What? So the web player won't need a plugin, just the native browser stuff? And it'll be just as fast? Really?
-
X-ray vision is definitely one of those things - I've always had a photoshop deconstructive x-ray vision since I started, then now I developed breaking down visual effects and particles vision, then "how is the balance in this game" vision, then "ho…
-
Yeah I'm all for not taking things too seriously, I mean my last game was a shark swimming in land shooting missiles. In bullet time. Lol :P Well ok as long as you're aware :) Just to me that "dodgy" initially read as "dodgy" like... sexually or cri…
-
Whooooa :D When was that? I'm not trying to devalue Yojimbo, it's really cool, but I really don't see that 3rd in the link you pasted there? XD Strange, it seems like if I follow your link we end up on different pages :/ I can't see the "jam entrie…
-
Very cool! I love your focused approach. Worked out well :) Just the one thing I wanted to mention - Dodgy Doodle... Dodgy... Dodgy sounds, well, dodgy. Doodle Dodge would have dodged that issue completely, if you want to consider it :) Good work!…
-
@FanieG That's a bronze, not 3rd, cos there's no way in hell my entry was 2nd in the comp (silver) :P They divide the field up into percentages and offer gold silver and bronze so you know you're top x percent. I dunno what the percentiles are thoug…
-
Can we make sure the internet is willing or not beforehand? @edg3, you're at MS, can we make sure the internet out from there works or doesn't on the day? I just would like some certainty pleeeease, whether yes or no it would suck if I cleared my t…
-
Soooo, can I get a yes, no or maybe from anyone regarding joining via hangout? You guys might be thinking about it, or not, or something? Anything? :)

Ludum Dare results are out! Everyone go check your rankings! We did mostly super well! Congrats SA! :) Here are Landshark's results:
-
The Ludum Dare results are out! :D #395 overall out of about 2,500 ain't bad :) I still don't quite understand what Coolness means (thought it's something about times voted) but a silver also sounds pretty cool :) Looks like hitting high on humor…
-
Oh! I guess I just don't know the terminology and picked up what you were saying in the way I thought they meant to me :) What I think of as story telling is "this is the story, and this is how it played out" - in a verbatim, linear way. I understa…

dislekcia;23043" said:[quote="edg3;23031"]Well, I'm not being paid, I'm doing my side as a favour for a friend, I'm working on it in my own time. I unfortunately cannot offer any money from myself or on behalf of who I am doing this for. ... If no…
-
OMG YOU GENIIII (pronounced "gee-nee-eye") :D I love how you two basically said the same thing. It's good to know I'm hearing industry standards :P
-
I know how @dislekcia feels about the "work free for exposure" pitch, and I tend to agree. Unless you're taking interns (and even interns get paid, I did all through my varsity interning career, which was every year over the December holidays), a co…

"PAY TRAFFIC FINES!!!" "TWEAK THE FLUXNIPPLES!!!" "SHAKE!!! SHAKE!!!"

The way it goes now I'll be attending via Hangout if I can. Can I?
-
OK here's another deceptively simple question. Deceptively cos I thought I could answer it. But I can't :/ When my shark lands, it lands at a slight angle into the ground. Therefore when I press forward for it to go - well - forwrad, its forward ve…

I would do it from the Google Hangout. CAN I??? I just need to figure out if there's 3G reception from where we are on holiday :/

Oh man >_< I reallyreallyreallyreallyreallywannago >_
