I've had a RON game that's about 25% complete on my hard drive for the last two years. I really need to finish it one of these days.  :undecided:

Why. Do. I. Always. Open. This. Thread?
For the same reason I do: It's the most entertaining thread in the entire forums.  :cheesy:

Thanks, Perspicacity1. I'll keep a closer eye on you in the future, eh?

Beauty, Jaffles. Here, have my last beer, okay?

So many entries! Is it greedy to hope for a few more before the deadline gets here? :cheesy:

Thanks, guys. I'm glad to know I did Canada proud, eh?

Good idea to get Ponch in though. A Texan's supposed to have at least one nice hat, isn't he? Ponch?
Would you believe I don't own a hat? Not even a baseball cap. I do own an old motorcycle helmet, but that's it. This thread makes me feel so left out.  :wink:

Happy belated b-day Joseph DiPerla. I hope things are better for you this year than they were last year.

Also, happy b-day to Baron.

Thanks for all the noms people!  This is the one that matters to me most!  I'm really psyched for this!
Seems to me the proper thing to do is to use all your eFame for a noble purpose. Make the world a better place, Vince! Make an Oceanspirit Dennis game and help bring teh wordz of Dennis to teh worlds!  :=

"From the man who brought you Resonance... Comes the story of a Ninja/Pirate/Viking/Detective like no other... Dennis vs. Dr. Morales... FIGHTS!"

It would be GLORIOUS, Vince. (nod)

many people voted exactly the same for every category, as happens every year.
But what my love, AGA? I have so much to give! :P

Wow, not a single nomination. Thanks, guys!
I came here to say the same thing!  :cry: :wink:

Oh, AGS Community! Why do you spurn my love? How many games must I make before you love me as much as I love you?  :=

Yeah, Ghost had the same issues when he was playtesting it.

I'd like to make this clear, I ALWAYS have issues. It's practically my trademark.
Easily confuddled. That's your problem, sir. That and all the beer and staying up all night on the interwebs when you should be resting up for another day of work. Those people in the hospital are counting on you, Ghost. And you're showing up hung over and trying to make everyone believe it's "teh diabeetus". You're not fooling anyone, sir.  (wrong)

Good grief Ponch, I'm downloading it...

A decision you will not regret, Dan. (Unless you're Canadian, that is)

Gosh! When did we let all these Canadians into our nice, clean forums?

Icey turned 18? Icey can vote now? Oh noes. There goes democracy.  :wink:

Happy birthday, Icey.

Also: Happy b-day, Stee.

Nobody "gets" the subtleties of Canada.  You have to earn them.   (nod)  There's a 1000 blackfly bite initiation before we start sharing our subtleties with outsiders. ;)
As someone who resided briefly in Canada, it's totally worth the flies because Canada produces stuff like this: Bacon Flavored Beer  :shocked:

Canada is decades ahead of the rest of the world when it comes to beer technology. Truly, they have won the Cold (Beer) War.  :cool:
#2079
Yeah, Ghost had the same issues when he was playtesting it. I can only hope that the charm of the characters and their world carry the day for those who don't "get" the subtleties of Canada -- which is everyone, basically.  (laugh)

Glad you liked the game. Thanks for playing.

Whoops. I wasn't clear, was I?  The idea was to have a simple "combine inventory" puzzle common to every adventure game, but with the twist of having the player separated from the character, so you'd would have to talk her through it -- which would be a novel experience for both her and you. When I doodled the puzzle out on paper at the start of development, you were going to talk her through it over the radio back at Mountie HQ.

So the puzzle is what I intended it to be, but it's too wordy. If I'd had more time, I would have streamlined the dialog tree (probably by removing most of the non-essential options) and worked to make the puzzle shorter overall.

So, yes, it is a "funny thing I made up", but it could have been done better.  :sealed:
