Re: The Dream17 Vending Machine

There is a flash of light. You find yourself sat behind the presidential desk in the White House. Looking around you, you spot a newspaper with today's date: June 17th 1972. Horrified, you run to a mirror and see the cragged face of Richard Milhous Nixon staring back. "Oh boy" Back in the ...

Re: RPG Maker VX Ace- Steam sale for 39 more hours

I personally think all this 'balancing' crap people talk about nowadays gets in the way of making games fun. I can honestly say there is never any time I've been playing a game and thought "Hmm, this weapon is way too overpowered. This game could really do with some balancing". I have thou...

Re: RPG Maker VX Ace- Steam sale for 39 more hours

The Youtube videos are proving pretty helpful, at the mo. I steered clear of the excited British and American tutorials and went for a Swedish guy who sounds bored and semi-depressed. He also makes mistakes sometimes and corrects himself. A class act! :D Things I have learned so far: 1) How to make ...

Re: RPG Maker VX Ace- Steam sale for 39 more hours

Euan! We could have purchased a quad pack. In my defence, I was the only person to show any interest in buying this (other than you). I just assumed the 4-pack thing wasn't happening as there weren't...y'know... four of us. Sorry. :P In other news, I've started trying the program. It annoyingly doe...

Well, I bought it. You talked me round.

Also purchased the Modern Tiles pack as it was cheap and I thought it might come in handy. WE SHALL SEE.

You get a book of 101 Ways to Cook Dolphin and a dubious-looking can of 'tuna'.

I walk up and insert a golden doubloon into the machine.

Re: RPG Maker VX Ace- Steam sale for 39 more hours

Looks interesting. Is it possible to change the in-game artwork via normal art programs like Photoshop? (I'm thinking of the profile pics for the characters specifically). But yeah, this reminds me of the 72WTD RPG which SomePerson was programming at one point (although that was all text). Not sure ...

You receive a hat. It's identical to the one on your head. You touch your head. There is no hat.

You receive a riddle wrapped in an enigma wrapped in a rasher of delicious, delicious bacon.

I insert a petition to the vending machine, signed by 200 participants. The petition calls upon the vending machine for greater transparency and to clearly state the services it provides.

Re: Wormers we've lost contact with

I can't say I have the best memories of FatWhitey. I used to help him with his writing when he wanted to post reviews on mobygames, etc. The reviews he'd written were often so garbled that I'd have to pretty much rewrite them. I didn't have a problem helping him with those but then he became kind of...

Re: Worms Clan Wars

So, apparently, one of the customisation options is... being able to change your weapon panel to the various iterations of the weapons panels that Worms games of yore have had throughout the years (from here - http://thegamershub.net/2013/07/worms-clan-wars-preview/ ) Which is a little strange but I...

Re: Worms Clan Wars

The best game Team17 have done in recent years was Worms Crazy Golf, which was a spin-off, and actually felt like the people making it were having fun. The problem with all the traditional Worms games post-Worms 4 is that they've felt kind of like their heart isn't in it. I felt like they reached th...
