I don't know if your local comic book store would carry it but it's worth looking, his comic is called CUSP he has other comics in a collection called Meathaus but I'd recommend CUSP since it's all him

Ah apparently he also did a comic called Gongwanadon and it has a pixel art cover, how cute!

Um, Edwinxie and LostTraveler, what's the matter with you guys?

First, LostTraveler, it seems kind of obvious why he revived the old thread, it appears he wants to know where he can download the demo. Fairly clear from his post...

And Edwinxie, how in the world is anyone supposed to know from reading this thread that the game is canceled? Also what in the rules should we be reading?

I don't see anything against asking a question so what are you talking about?

Or does everyone just like being a jerk?

The last thread before Sslaxx was in July 2003

I think it's safe to say this thread is dead

I like this adventure game, I played it a while ago and was impressed, and then I learned that a guy who went to my school did the art, Tom Herpich [and he's an awesome comic book artist] and I was even more impressed

hehe VWG... How is it impossible in paint? It's just pixels, baby

Wow, I didn't know ghosts had to look a 'certain' way to be ghosts (since they aren't real and tangible entities, afterall).Ã,  Some of you people are far too critical for anyone's good.Ã,  I think it looks fine.

This is the critics lounge, he asked for a critique, he is getting one. What do you want from people? Because something doesn't exist means that one can't critique how it looks?

I will grant you that whatever he wants the ghost to look like is what it will look like since it's a cartoon, but since he asked for C&C then that is what he gets...

As for the sprite, I'm afraid I like the first one better. But maybe what I like about the first animation is that I thought the bobbing animation was his idle view, I recommend using something like it for when he's just "Standing" around

this was many many years ago Oz, I think I'm the only one who remembers it...

but I very much enjoy your image, what would a little light reflection from the buildings lights look like in the water?

Hello, don't mind me, just wanted to ask, you wouldn't happen to know anything about a game called Korruptica?

it was an old game being "made" back in the SCRAMM days and there was a city scape just like that one on a blue background for their main page website [and that was it, except for coming soon]

not that i'm saying you stole it i'm just wondering if you'd happen to be that person

eric

It happens to me because I have a pinched nerve in my back, if I lay on my back for too long my left lower thigh "falls asleep" and if it stays like that for too long and I move it it feels like someone is shredding my muscle with a small, white hot garden rake...

That's not what it feels like, is it?

Good lord, the mid 90's called, they want the Primitive Radio Gods back!

Been forever since I think anyone has mentioned them in this world...

Finally, I will actually expand the intro to show Alexander's kidnapping. Did you know that the original KQ3 was ill-received at first because people didn't get the link to the other KQ games?

May I ask why?

Isn't a part of the game learning who Gwydion is? Not knowing who you are or why you're the slave of a wizard?

Yes blackthrone... that was totally necessary to post... you're very witty and aren't just adding fuel to any fire...

and by that I mean

was that totally necessary to post? do you just want to add fuel to the fire?

i suggest a warning in the thread's title. some people may not want to open this image among certain company.

I'm sure DG agrees

I'm sorry netmonkey but you have me completely stumped. I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

"(Except for like Grim Fandango, sort of, because the gameplay was partially based on the 1993 Alone in the Dark engine)"

Excuse me? I don't follow this thinking. Because There was a 3rd person survival horror game before Grim Fandango... Grim Fandango all of the sudden made no advances in adventure games? Disregarding plot and setting and mood and freaking originality all together?

"Even first person shooters, which are pretty mindless games, had added new things with each iteration, like multiple floors, the ability to jump, the change in movement, actual storylines (which came from adventure games)"

What? This makes no sense to me at all.

"So instead of coming up with revolutionary new methods of game design (in the field of adventure, for example) like they did years ago, they just threw everything away and just relied on making star wars games."

Can I see the internal papers from LucasArts that say this? How do you know what is going on inside LucasArts?

If you're trying to talk about gameplay then that's fine but I'm not getting any of that from what you've written. Either someone needs to explain it to me or you should try again.

You give a lot of credit to FPS games

"I guess you could say "uh.. you still shoot around", but there is more things you can do! The number of outcomes has increased. Some things as not as predictable as they used to be (maybe Doom 3 breaks the rule?)."

But there are tons and tons of games that are just cookie cutter. For every Half Life there are 35 Gore games just being pumped out one after the other, not innovating and not even trying it seems. Maniac Mansion started off with a lot of things [multiple endings, multiple characters, multiple solutions to puzzles] and through the years LucasArts scaled back on these, so it seems by your first paragraph's arguement that no game really got as innovative as Maniac Mansion.

So I'm confused.

DG: Point and Click adventure games aren't dead. Check out the Nancy Drew adventure games, they're selling like hotcakes. Also a lot of children's games are point and click adventure games, just cause they aren't for us older peeps doesn't mean they aren't adventure games!

Um... there... is... a warning on all those movies...

I just hope that when this movie comes out LucasArts can move onto something else somewhere in the future...

maybe in 10 years they'll stop making Star Wars games a plenty.

It seems your angry about something else and just choosing this thread to project in InCreator

I don't see anyone "treating minorities like they were a bunch of crying babies" I just see a guy asking if a warning can be added to a game.

He also said nothing about censoring the game... Where are you getting this from?

and sutebi:

"Flinnt, are you a black american? Because if not, I think this is a moot point and you are just making an uproar for no reason."

Yea I agree, one time I saw a woman being accosted by some men after a concert, they kept grabbing her and she kept screaming for help... Then I read in the news the next day that she was raped and left for dead. No WAY was I going to help her since I'm not a woman... I secretly think that all the white people against racism and slavery are really black people wearing make up to look white! Otherwise they shouldn't care at all since it doesn't effect them at all!

Hey scotch, beat it, quite interesting... and Erotic!
