Was this the same project you were working on before (with a name change?), I was always curious what happened to that. Mechanics wise it looks like it's come on leaps and bounds.

Looks very interesting man.

Yes. It was called WI-AA and yes, I had some trouble finishing it, but lately I spent a lot of time improving everything in the game so hopefully some will like it in the end.

Yeah, I remember this, very fallout-esque. Looking forward to it.

Btw, it says "strenght" instead of "strength".

Holy salami, this looks sweet :o! I'd love to beta-test this.

I also make music so I might be able to help there. :D

Finally! I thought this was gone for good. Glad I was wrong :)

I can test this game if you still need testers. The combat system looks interesting.

You have a Skill called Skill?  I think you should come up with a different name, otherwise it seems redundant to have other skills along with it.  I'm not sure what 'skill' does so I can't recommend a replacement, however I will tell you that strength is misspelled in your list.

I like the general look to this.  Hopefully there won't be too much micromanagement (like needing to eat and drink constantly).

Gepard

Yes, well I'm not a native speaker so that's why I chose skill. It is supposed to represent how skilful or handy you are. Handicraft, knack, handiness? I don't know which to choose.

Yes, you will have to drink and eat, but this is basically because different anomalies will infect you with different viruses. One reduces food level and another water level. And if you have zero food or water, your health will slightly decrease.

How about ability...or Talent....maybe even expertise.... or proficiency.

Gepard

Thanks for the tip. I might use the ability unless... Is "skill" really incorrect? Does it not mean the same?

NickyNyce

The truth of the matter is...another word for ability is skill ...and some others....

It's just a bit weird because like ProgZmax mentioned...in your skills list..you have a skill called skill...seems kinda strange...

Straight from the D&D stats: Dexterity? :)

Maybe just give it a category name, like, for example, 'picklocking skill' or 'climbing skill'?

Would like to but it includes more than just one ability :D

I think I'll just remove the skills label :)

Dexterity is definitely the best answer here.

Looks admittedly interesting, and without wanting to insult you, Gepard, you should get a proof-reader. It's no shame, I get one for myself here and there.
It'd be a shame to not be able to enjoy a what-seems-to-be a solid game, because of the spelling and grammar mistakes. That's all. ;)
Worked on Strangeland, Primordia, Hob's Barrow, The Cat Lady, Mage's Initiation, Until I Have You, Downfall, Hunie Pop, and every game in the Wadjet Eye Games catalogue (porting)
