Next Game clue #1 December 8, 2008 cliffski Might as well keep you guessing. But here is a very general clue as to what sort of game I’m doing next. More clues to follow
IT’S A TRAP! So you’re making some sort of game based on the old board game Mouse Trap? What’s my prize? :)
(which would be pretty good, actually, even though it’s almost certainly not what you’re really doing)
Hmm… so it’s either a “trap” game, an underwater game (because Admiral Ackbar is a Mon Calamari), a space battle game, or… I guess this list could go on. His ship was Home One, so it could even be a Sims-type game if we really want to go out on a limb ;) Can’t wait to hear what it is. Good luck w/everything!
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Its a mix of Starship Tycoon 2 and (was it called?) Plantery Defence + asteroid mining game WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See – And who said Cliffski never listens to his gamers ??????? WHOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t wait – I can’t wait – I can’t wait !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Then gets worried that he might be wrong?)
IT’S A TRAP! Well my guess is either you’ve decided to remake Star Wars Episodes I – III to show Lucas how it should have been done (e.g. add Quark as Obi-Wan’s bartender mate in Episode 2 ;-) ) Or, because you’ve said it’s a general clue, I reckon you just mean that it’s going to be a sci-fi game ;-) Either way sounds cool, so if you need any help from an ex-industry AI/gameplay/generalist/networking/mmo/dogsbody vet code monkey then just give me a shout ;-) Hehe good luck anyway :-) Nutter
